"Hey."
"Hmm?"
"Let's make a promise."
"What kind of promise would that be, ******?"
"How about we promise to never leave each other? No matter what happens."
"We'll stick together then?"
"Forever."
Who would have thought that the situation would turn into this? With a promise broken... But not at the same time? There was not a thought in his mind as he stared at the person in front of him. All he was feeling was the surprise of hearing her question. The question sent a shock of electricity down his spine. It made his hands that he hid behind his back shake. His mind ran wild, but it never uttered a single word to him. It was a feeling he was slightly familiar with... The only thing was that this time was different.
"Who are you?" She had asked him.
He would have liked to say that he didn't see this coming. He would have loved to say that this was a surprise to him. He couldn't though. It would have been a lie. This was a time that he had been dreading since he first found out what was happening to her. It was only a matter of when it would happen. The only reason he was so shocked was that it happened now of all times. Why couldn't they have gotten a period of rest? A time when the two of them could lick their wounds and recover from the cruel fate that they were dealt. Sadly, that gift was not given to them... He should have expected as much.
That's why he had already prepared. He knew exactly what to say in response to the girl's question. It hurt to think about the fact that he had to prepare for something like this in the first place. Was he going to tell the truth to her? Or was it going to be some lie that he had spun together? He broke free from his frozen state. He gave the girl a soft smile, "Have you forgotten already, ma chérie?" No response was given to him. Her facial expression was enough. She had no clue who he was. It was enough to send a stabbing pain to his heart. He never let it show on his face. He extended a hand to her that she used to help pull herself up from the ground. That's when he finally replied, "I'm..."
