Chapter 5

'Kaeya?' Jean shakes Kaeya, a little worried for his state.

'Huh? Oh. yes?' Kaeya looks up at the blond woman and her worried face.

'Are you listening to me?'

'sorry...I kind of dozed off, a little tired, that is all'

'*sigh* I really am sorry for your loss, I know it can be hard' Jean addressed him, about Crepus. Kaeya shook his head 'No, it's okay, you should say it's more of my fault' he laughs pathetically

Jean exhales, her eyebrows scrunched, 'No, it's not, Kaeya, it's normal to feel like that when people special to you pass' She says. Kaeya smiles in reply, more tired. 'I know but..' Kaeya gives up reasoning with Jean. She can't know, she's all he has for now. It'll get better. It has to, right?

More than 10 years.

More than 10 years and you reveal yourself

And now?

Now he thinks your...

your ..

You're a criminal.

You simply don't belong here, do you.

because of who you truly are, no one can trust you.

But we do

We're your family, Kaeya

We could never think of you like that

We are the only ones who truly care for you...

How could they discard you like that?

Your better than that

You deserve better

Can't you hear our cries? Our sobs? Our begs? Our pleads? Our voice?

When will we reunite?

We need a real ruler.

Have you discarded us?

Please Kaeya, tell us you have not discarded us.

...

We can't live without you.

We need you, please.

Please

Please

Please

Plea-

'Kaeya.' Jean says again, possibly the third time

Kaeya snaps back into reality, apologising

A pitiful is on her face and that's when he realises.

Tears are falling down his cheek, a single stream. How stupid to appear so weak.

Jean quickly wraps her arms around his neck, letting him dig his face in her shoulder. Pathetic sobs come from the man, sobbing for everything he has done. And guilt and mourning. His hands wrap around her back.

Why?

Why can't anything go the way he wants?

Why do the archons hate him so much?

Why do Celestia hate him so much

Why does everyone hate him so much?

'I'm so sorry...' She cries with him. Kaeya shakes his head.
