Blacktail Deer Plateau Point proven

he had nothing to say to combat her point. it was true, no one really came to her aid through the weeks. maybe liri did, since she had herb knowledge, but he didn’t know for sure. other then that, he couldn’t think of anyone else.

she turned to leave, but before she did she said: can’t you tell when someone doesn’t want you around?

that stung.

he was at a loss for words. sadness and anger rushed through him and he hid those feelings. all he did was watch her start to leave.

then suddenly, he darted forward in front of her path. “if you never wanted me around then why did you want me to come here in the first place?” he hissed. “minori, i care for you. i want to help you. but i can’t do shit if you keep running from your problems. you can’t bottle them up forever.”
