Kazuto's P.O.V.

"Her name is Akemi Veil" I said after pausing slightly due to the sudden change of expression in Asuna's delicate face.

"Akemi...Veil" Asuna said going into a state of daze. I was already used to this face, since we had spent almost every day together after we found out how we felt felt about each other. Because of this I had memorized every expression Asuna made. But her thoughts were another thing. Some would call me dense to other peoples thoughts or feelings- them being mostly girls- and quite frankly, I would agree. Having someone to talk to or to listen to wasn't really a priority in life for me and really, I didn't mind. Or at least that was until I met Asuna.

"Isn't that the character for beauty?" Asuna asked, snapping out of her prior gaze into nothingness.

"Bright" I said unconsciously, still feeling quite nostalgic from my visit to the past.

"Huh?" Asuna looked at me surprised.

"Ah! Well, it's actually bright beauty" I said correcting Asuna, while my right index finger in the air.

She stared at me, taken back probably because it was rare for me to correct her in such a casual, nonchalant way.

Her amber eyes hidden underneath her knitted eyebrows were locked in me as she walked a little closer to me.

Out of instinct I backed away, afraid that she would give me a scolding or something worse.

"How do you know that?" She asks curiosity Burning in her Amber eyes as she gradually came closer.

"Er...ermmm..." I said still backing up making it look like Asuna was chasing me but in a backwards type of motion. As I was trying to escape the increase speed of her coming closer, I tripped over my own feet and ended up falling on the concrete beneath me, making a sort of "THUMP" sound echo throughout the empty roof.

"Well Kazuto?" Asuna said kneeling over me like a queen as I was hopelessly on the ground looking up at her.

"Okay okay, a bunch of people kept asking me about her and noticed that her name meant beauty but I corrected them and told them it meant bright beauty. They said that it wasn't much of a difference but I argued that it was. I guess I just got used to people saying it wrong and me correcting them." I said quickly trying to catch my breath after that long answer.

"Hmmmm...." Asuna said looking pleased with herself that she got the answer out of me so forcefully. "Alright I believe you" she said after a moments thought.

I didn't notice I was tense until after my shoulders sagged dramatically after knowing that Asuna wasn't going to hurt me in anyway.

"Okay well now that that's aside let me ask you something" Asuna said she stuck out her right hand, offering me help to get off the cold concrete floor.

After Asuna had successfully pulled me up into a standing position, she continued.

"So basically you and Akemi have been childhood friend since you can remember. Am I right?" She asked taking a couple of steps back, reassuring me that she wouldn't do the same thing again.

"Since third grade" I said, correcting her again.

"Okay, so since third grade. May I ask how you got to know each other?"

"Well you see it's kind of a long story" I said shrugging. I really didn't want to it's explain something so long again to Asuna.

"I just want to know the basics" she said going back to her normal self.

"Okay" I said racking my brain for a summary that was both short but informational. "so I'm a year older than she is, but she flunked a grade because of excessive absences. So technically I was in fifth grade and she was in third when we actually started talking."

"Wait hold up, excessive absences?"

"Yeah she was in the hospital a lot because of her... You know"

"Yeah, continue" she said gesturing for me to go on.

"Okay, but anyways, Before Midori's current Job, she had a different one. She was a librarian. So every day after school I used to walk there and help her put away the returned books. Then one day, I noticed a small girl come in. I could tell that she hadn't been here before, so I helped her out a bit, you know, help her find fiction books and stuff. She ended up coming daily, except on weekends, so I guess we just sorta became good friends."

"I see, but how did you know that she had BPD?" Asuna asked

"I'm getting there." I said reassuring her, "Anyways, like I was saying, we had become close friends, without really knowing it. And then one day, she had one of her episodes." I said remembering that day like it was yesterday.

"It was the beginning of the new year, so the library was closed. Akemi came with us to the New Years festival that was nearby. We had a lot of fun, but when we went to go take a walk in the woods, that's when it happened."

"She started crying, saying that nobody loved her, that nobody had ever loved her. I didn't know what was going on, but I tried to comfort her by cradling and hugging her. Luckily, it was a minor one and had stopped a few moments before Midori had found us." I said looking into the distance at the dark clouds coming in.

'I wonder if it's going to rain'

"I always had this sort of feeling whenever she would get angry quickly or change her personality. But I just thought it wasn't anything major. But after that, she told me all about her condition and how long she had had it." I focused my gaze in Asuna who was already getting into my synopsis.

"After that, I promised myself that I would never let anything or anyone hurt her, no matter what it took" I sighed, indicating I was done with my 'summary'.

"Oh..." Asuna said in a quiet voice.

"Did that sum it up?"

"It convinced me" Asuna was looking at her shoes.

"Convinced you? Convinced you to do what?" I asked confused.

"That we should break up"
