Back at the Cemetery.

Hunnigan: Ren... you know I had to do something. Without you here, we all know hell will break loose eventually.

Ren sighed as he looked somewhere else. He put away his knife.

Hunnigan: Listen.. I know it's hard but please do it for Leon. He's already suffering enough Ren.

With that, Hunnigan started to go back to her car. She opened the door.

Ren: Hunnigan.

He called out which made her turn around to face him.

Ren: I'll call you when I'm ready just not right now okay?

Hunnigan: Okay, just don't take too long alright.

Ren nod which made a small smile appear on Hunnigan's face. She then got into her car and turned the engine on before driving away. Ren was left alone as he looked at his name on the tombstone. He scoffed before walking away. He head to his car and got in, driving to his apartment.

Once reaching and inside, he dropped onto the couch. He closed his eyes only to reopen them when he saw Leon's crying face. He hated it.

Ren: Why must you haunt me?

He whispered to himself. He laid there in silence while looking up at the ceiling. He didn't want to close his eyes, fearing that he would see his face all over again. There was a sudden knock at the door which made him get up with a confused expression. He went to it and looked through the peephole to see Ada standing there. He opened the door only for her to hug tightly.

Ada: Thank god you're alive.

Ren didn't know what to do but instead he hugged her back as well.

Ada: When I heard you died, I just... I couldn't believe it. I had to know if it was true or not.

Ren: I'm alive and that's all that matters.

He didn't even ask how she found him since he knew that she'll always find what she wants. He noticed how she moved around him. When she hugged him with Leon and Helena watching, it was a whole new surprise to him since she never did that with anyone. He came to the conclusion that she liked him but he couldn't say. Ada finally let go.

Ada: I'm glad.

She smiled lightly at him which made him do the same.

Ada: Did you tell Leon?

Ren: No I.. I haven't said anything to him yet.

Ada: So he still thinks that you're dead?

Ren: Yeah basically.

It then went silent between the two. Ren noticed that she wanted to say something to him but she didn't know how.

Ren: Are you ok?

He said as he touched her arm which made her blush lightly. She stared at his lips before looking into his eyes. Ren noticed but didn't say anything.

Ada: Yes.. Yes I'm alright.

Ren: Are you sure?

Ada just nod before clearly her throat.

Ada: I have to go. I'll see you around, hopefully.

She smiled at him before walking away. The conclusion Ren had in his head were true but why? Didn't she always wanted Leon? What made her change her mind so quickly? He sighed.

Ren: It's too late for this shit.

He shut the door and locked it before going to his bedroom. Once he did, he looked at his bed. He figured that he wouldn't be able to go sleep which made him walk back out into his living room. He unlocked the door and opened it, he was about to go out into the hallway until he heard a couple voices that were coming his way. He closed the door gently and listened.
