Norimori followed him outside and hesitated once he saw how desperate Ryu looked. He lowered his head and whispered, "Sorry…"
Ryu took a deep breath to chase away the tears. He shook his head and forced on a smile as he looked at Norimori, "It's okay. He was going to find out eventually… I just thought… I thought he wouldn't leave."
Norimori felt as if he was being crushed by guilt.
Just like Ryu, he didn't want to be a Taira member either.
In fact, none of the brothers did except for Kiyomori.
The only reason Kiyomori wanted to be one was to make his "Father" proud. Kiyomori always wanted to be accepted, but none of the others cared to be.
Norimori grabbed Ryu's sleeve, "Go after him."
This chapter was so traumatic...
What am I doing with my life.
