"YOU SAID I COULD END UP LEAVING YOU, SO YOU LEFT ME! I'M FIXING THE PROBLEM! I'LL BE ABLE TO MAKE THAT PROMISE! SO WHY..! ... Why... Shay... WHAT ARE YOU STILL MAD ABOUT!?"

"Stop yelling at me!" She screamed back. Again, the urge to push him was back as it had been before. He had to stop yelling at her. He had to, or she'd lose it. She couldn't. Couldn't. Couldn't. "It's not about you! I didn't abandon you! I'm standing here, aren't I? And you're yelling at me! Stop it!"



"You. You. You. That's what it keeps coming back to. Yes, Kenta! Yes! I do this to everyone. I don't want friends. I don't want pain. I don't want this. But you don't care what my answer is. You want something clear-cut and easily wrapped up. That's not what life is like. It's not black and white. I didn't--"
Shay cut off, breathing hard. She was getting too off track. She didn't need to bring up that.
