We run through Mondstadt, Bennett, dragging me along, until we finally reach my house.

He opens my front door, pushing me inside and slamming the door behind him.

"Bennett! What was that for! You had a chance to talk to him! You could of-" I cut myself off as I turn to see Bennett sitting against the door, face cupped in his hands, and his legs pressed up against himself.

I gently kneel down and I reach out to touch his shoulder. I feel his body shaking, hearing his muffled sobs.

It pains me to see Bennett in such a state. He tends to keep his worries locked away in the back of his mind, pretending like his luck doesn't bother him in the slightest. But sometimes those thoughts he hides from himself, build up, haunting his mind; then he'd come to me talk, rant, and sob, with me, all the willing to listen.

but, Bennett...

I've never seen him this bothered before, so hurt, confused.

"Hey... Bennett?" I softy call out his name. "I'll run a bath for you, you can clean up, and I'll leave a change of clothes for you at the door."

He stays silent.

"I'll make some tea too. Alright?"

He nods.
