"I'll work hard to prove to her that I won't leave her," said Ian. "Where are the others?" he asked. "Kept them away. Since I didn't know what condition she was in," said ℥enji. "Seeing the state she is in, its best to keep them away from her for now," he added watching ⨊ sleep. "I'll keep them away as well," said Ian. "It's ok for your friends to be around as long as you don't leave her alone with them. Or let them near her or touch her. Its just that people with a strong atmosphere will hurt her," said ℥enji.
"That means when I got angry..." said Ian trailing off. "Don't worry. It's ok for you and me. But other beings atmosphere would hurt her. Besides you were only protecting her and sometimes behaving that way is the only way to keep her safe," said ℥enji. "I'll be staying near here with the others. I'll come to check on her, let me know if anything happens," he added. "What?" he asked when he saw Ian staring at him. "I'm just surprised that you would leave her with me," "You've already proven yourself. Plus she wouldn't allow you near her if you had any malicious intent towards her. Especially when she is in this state, she is more cautious," said ℥enji. "Besides you've had innumerable chances to hurt her if you wanted to. When you first met her, when you were Kian and as Adrian, you've had plenty of chances to hurt her or betray her," he added.
The week went by with Vincent and the others visiting Ian. And ℥enji staying with ⨊ when they weren't around. ⨊ continued to remain in a dazed state. Eating and sleeping with a blank expression. But would frown whenever her wounds were being treated.
