Bronya & Seele: Wait, you two are married?! 


Sal: Fake marriage, guys! I thought I said that multiple times. 


Seele: But still married... 


Bronya: I knew you two were bad when it came to the matter of the heart... But this is a different level. 


Seele: So, umm... Have you like... Um, you know... (Her face was heating up)... You know, held hands? 


Sal: (He had a fond look in his eyes) I mean yeah many times I mean she had a terrible sense of direction. Like this one time in Manila we were in a Christmas carnival when she ran off to a sweet shop. However later she couldn't find me and then attempted to scream my name at the top of her lungs. It was very embarrassing so in order to save myself from that again we decided to hold hands so that we don't get separated. 


Bronya: You two are insufferable. 


Seele: Now, now, Bronya, let the two of them take it at their own pace. 


Sal: What are you guys on about? 


Bronya: On how dense you are. 


Sal: I am not. 


Bronya: Yes, you are. 


Sal: There's a difference between being dense and being ignorant, Bronya. 


Bronya, taken aback, gave him a confused look: What do you mean? 


Sal: Exactly what I said. She is better off without me, you know. Plus, she has Mei so-


Seele, who was silently listening, gave him a light slap. It didn't carry any strength, but it stung. 


Seele: I am sorry, but don't say such hurtful things... 


Bronya, horrified by Seele's sudden action, tried to make sense of whatever was happening. 


Seele: It is not up to you to decide who she is better off with, Sal. Don't act like you are the only one hurting out of all of us. 


Sal nodded as he held the stinging cheek. "I am sorry."


Seele: I don't think I am the one you need to say this to. 


Sal: I know. 


Seele: Then will you tell her? 


Sal didn't reply. His gaze was averted towards his bandage. 


Seele sighed: I am not asking you to do it today or tomorrow or even a month from now. But when you are ready I want you to be honest to yourself. Okay Sal? 


He gave her a nod. 


Happy Seele gave him a gentle head pat. 


Meanwhile, Bronya on the sidelines felt like she had been excluded from a plot-changing event.
