Aaron was confused by the woman's responses. She had, at first, seemed rather open and friendly, but as the evening went on he could only discover that she was more enigmatic the he had thought she was. It was almost as if fate had intervened on his life; to prevent him to focusing on his loss, to focus instead on others. However, this was just as confusing as being left alone. 

Finally, Aaron responded, after some seconds of deliberation. "I guess I would more understand the feeling of being freed." He began. "More so the feeling that, after many years of being locked into some sort of pathway, being freed from it. And I guess I would understand more the feeling of Stockholm Syndrome; in the sense that most of me longs to be trapped once again. To not have to worry about your future, I guess." 

Aaron blinked a few times to conceal any emotion in his face. If she wished to be enigmatic, he would too. Someone was going to have to open up.
