Reply to the Revenge of the Former Thug

The dark past

...****************...

At night in the middle of the city

The dark and seedy atmosphere of the city, in the middle of which stood a sturdy man named Rudi. With tattoos encircling his arms and a terrifying sharp gaze, he was a once strong and feared thug in this city.

Rudi (smoking while gazing into the distance): "This city has become mine. No one dared to break the rules I made."

Fellow Thugs: "Yes, Rudi. You're the most feared thug here. No one can beat you in a fight."

Rudi (sneer smile): "They all know the consequences if against me. Power and violence are languages they understand."

Fellow Thugs: "But is there no better future for you, Rudi? Is this what you want forever?"

Rudi (moaning for a moment): "I know this is not the life I should have chosen. There is a lot of violence and suffering around us. I want to build a better life, but how?"

Fellow Thugs: "If you really want a change, Rudi, then there is a way for you. You have to stop engaging in violence and find another way to live."

Rudi (sighs deeply): "You are right. I have to find a way to get out of this cycle of violence. I want a better life, I want to find peace."

Fellow Thugs: "I will support you, Rudi. You're not just a thug, you have more potential than that. Don't let your past live your life."

Next day

Man: "Hi, my name is Denny. I see you around town a lot. How are you?"

Rudi (without expression): "Alright."

Denny: "I wonder, what made you choose to live like this? Being a feared thug?"

Rudi (stare blankly into his drink): "I used to live in chaos. Losing a family, having nowhere to go. The world of thugs is the only place that accepts me."

Denny: "It must be hard. But why not find a way out, try a better life?"

Rudi (a bit of a bitter smile): "I've tried. I thought that a better life might be out there. But it's hard to leave this world. Trapped in violence, defending your reputation, no one believes you."

Denny: "But, Rudi, there's a chance to start again. Finding light in the darkness. What would you do if you had that chance?"

Rudi (moaning for a moment): "If I have the chance, I want to build a better life. I want to find someone I can respect and be my partner. I want to live in peace, work hard for my own future."

Denny: "That's a glorious dream, Rudi. If you really want change, I believe you can achieve it. Never stop fighting for a better life."

Rudi pondered about Denny's words. In his heart, there was a strong desire to leave the world of thugs and start a new life. He wants to find someone who can be his partner, someone who will help him through his dark past.

However, fate has other plans for Rudi. Her dreamy new life will be tested in a bitter way, when revenge and upcoming tragedies will shake the foundations of her fragile life.
