"So, What you're saying is, Ein is the reason all of this happened?" Aaron asked, speechless at the news.

"Yeah," Zane confirmed, causing Aaron to sigh.

"So my memory was lost... because I hit my head on a rock, hard? Right?" Zane nodded.


"Listen, just because I told you about him doesn't mean you should go out and try to meet him, okay?" Zane warned, his voice serious. "I... I wasn't sure if I should tell you at all because of how distressed you've seemed lately."


"Alright... But what happens if we do meet him?" Aaron asked, and Zane could only shrug in response.

"We don't know, but it's better to avoid him than to risk causing more trouble." Zane sighed, sitting down. "You deserved to know, especially if he might still be a danger to us. Do not try and interact with him, okay?"


Aaron never was good at listening to warnings.


Aaron simply nodded. "So all I have to do is avoid him at all costs? How am I supposed to do that, I don't know what he looks like." Zane pulled his phone from his pocket, showing him the photo that they suspected was of 'Ein'.


He had bright blue stripes in his raven hair and baby blue eyes, resembling the color of the sky on a clear, sunny day. His pale skin resembled the color of snow, save for the scars scattered around his face, a particularly large scar running right along his cheek. He looked like he hadn't slept in days, yet he still seemed healthy. 'Ein's' face was turned to the side and there was a girl beside him in the image.


The girl's full face was in view, her hair the same raven color as Aphmau's with a pink hair clip, and her eyes a deep, dark brown color. She looked pale, however Aaron couldn't be sure as he looked away after a moment.


"Now that you know what he looks like, you can avoid him. If he sees you or tries to approach you, do not speak, just walk away as if you're in a hurry. Understand?" Zane told Aaron, his voice filled with worry.

"Geez Zane, now you sound exactly like my father."


Zane only chuckled in response. "Yeah yeah, whatever. But I'm serious about this, okay?"

Zane glanced at Aaron again, who nodded. "Okay, but you know I forget warnings sometimes."

"The clothes are done! Oh, and we need to do some grocery shopping today, want to tag along?" Valentina asked, and Ein nodded in response.

"Sure, maybe I could help. Gotta repay you for saving me." Ein smiled, taking a towel and turning away from Valentina. "But~ I've gotta wash up first."


Valentina was now alone in the room.


Valentina shrugged and sat down, waiting for Ein to finish. Her brother wasn't home at the moment, having left after receiving an emergency phone call from their mother.


She was sitting comfortably on the couch when her phone began to ring. When she saw the number, she choked on the air, jolting upwards and staring at her phone in disbelief, her eyes wide.


Ein got out of the shower soon after and walked into the room, looking at Valentina in confusion.

"The hell? You okay there?" He asked. Valentina slowly turned to face him, laughing awkwardly as she made her way to the balcony without responding to Ein's question. Ein only shrugged and walked back into his room.




(A/N I finished this while incredibly sad and wishing death on myself so uh fuck you this is the best you get)
