Muichiro came to check up on me right after the meeting. At first he was relieved, but then he turned angry. He turned away fuming and refused to speak with her.
"Muichiro.." I started but stopped as I noticed that he was shaking. I also noticed how red his ears were. I looked down in shame. After a while, he finally spoke to me. "How many times do I have to worry about you?" His back was still facing me and the light from the moon illuminated his back. He looked sad and lonely.
"You don't have any idea how many times we (Yuichiro as-well) wake up fearing for your safety. How many times we worry that one day, you'll be gone. And you might never come back. You didn't come back for 2 years, (Y/N). I don't know anymore." I knew from the sound of his voice that he was definitely sad. Not really angry, but sad.
I can imagine the disappointed look on Yuichiro with his signature scowl. And it pained me to the heart. I couldn't take it anymore. Tears welled up in my eyes and I grabbed his hands. He tried to get out of my grasp but stopped, hearing my sniffle. He looked back only to be met with my weeping figure.
"I'm sorry Mui. Yui as well. I... didn't think about you. I just got swallowed up in the sadness of not having been able to save lives just because of my lack of speed. They... They should have been able to live on to tomorrow if I just got there sooner..." Your throat got stuck and another tear slipped out. "I'm weak, Mui, and I'm sorry. So I'll train, Mui. I'll train so that you won't have to worry about me."
I slipped my hands off his and stood up from my bed. I wiped the fears on my face and tried to walk. Mui-Chan came to push me back but I resisted. "(Y/N)—" "Mui! I'll get stronger!! Don't hold me back" And I went out the door bearing the searing pain from the wounds. But I'll have to bear it. I'll make me stronger. So Mui won't have to worry.
