Roman had just gotten back from the imagination, he was now heading towards his precious, luxurious bedroom.

Although, when he went past the guest room, he heard silent sobbing. He stopped and went back in order to figure out what was going on.

Roman could only hear slight muttering, soon figuring out that the person who was crying was Haru.

The princely aspect went up closer to the door of the room as he continued to hear muttering. He could only make up some of the words being said, but the rest was unknown to him.

"Why am I so useless..?" Roman heard Haru say, the sobbing inside the room getting to be a bit more audible. "Mom was right.." Haru muttered. "I am too soft and worthless."

Roman then right kicked the door open, noticing that Haru jump at the loud noise.

"Why I'd never!" Roman started as he walked into the room. "What is this nonsense I hear you talking about?!" He said as he went up to Haru who was curled up on his bed.

"H-huh? I-i don't know what you're talking about." Haru muttered as he held onto his legs, his face looking away from Roman.

"In the words of Logan, falsehood! You're clearly in here doubting yourself!"

"I-i'm not! You're probably mistaken-" Haru started before getting interrupted.

"Don't play dumb with me! I know what I heard." Roman stated as he stared at Haru. "This nonsense is outrageous, my dear! You're not worthless! Get that thought out of your beautiful head!" Roman said as he hit Haru's head.

"Oww! But Roman-!" Haru spoke as he held onto his head.

"But Roman nothing! Darling, you're not worthless or useless. Whoever told you that is just darn right stupid."

Haru continued to look at anything other than Roman, tears threatening to fall from his eyes. He only looked up when Roman grabbed ahold of his chin. "B-but.. Am I not annoying to you four?"

"Dearest no! You're not annoying to any of us, I can assure you of that." Roman said as he smiled softly at the ravenette in front of him. "Although, you are pretty stubborn."

Haru pouted as he looked away from Roman. The brunette easily made Haru turn his head back around. "But, other than that, you're a great kid. Get those horrible thoughts out of your head because they are not true."

"Are- are you sure?" Haru asked, his voice wavering as he moved his bangs from out of his eyes. His dark red eyes staring straight into Roman's brown ones.

Roman once again smiled softly as he held onto Haru's cheek. "I'm sure, don't worry." The creativity trait said. "Are you alright? Do you still need comforting?"
