Kapitel 896: Hiccup

"Are you not going after her?"

"Why would I do that? We have no relation."

"Even though she cares for you so?"

"Does that mean I must reciprocate those feelings no matter what? She is young and...oh so naive. It is only a fleeting emotion that she has for me. In a few years, she won't even remember who I am."

**

'A fleeting emotion? You both have been on the planet for more than a standard year and yet, she still harbors those 'fleeting emotions' for you every moment of every day. Are you sure you are not just saying that to make yourself feel better for abandoning her?'

'Abandoning her?? How am I abandoning her?! Why must I be responsible for a stranger's well-being?!'
