At this moment, Corman was contemplating a question he had never considered before—what kind of life did he truly want, and what did a real life even mean?
This clean-cut, healthy, and sunny young man was walking a path many had walked before. The person he loved the most definitely wasn’t Serra. His life was perhaps a bit better than others’, but still not good enough. He didn’t have much of a choice—just like now.
He needed to make a decision for his future.
Should he stay with Serra and continue playing the role he had always played—for the rest of his life?
