Other than her small hiccups, the room remained silent.
His lips moving nearer to her ear, his grip on her tightening a tad making her flinch.
And it hurts.
He's hurting me.

Hanako:"In reality you're-"

She closes her eyes when she feels his icy
breath on her neck like little snowflakes.

Hanako:"Just a weak thing."

His voice is shaking: thick with some sort of messed up desire but at the same time, afraid.

Despite her fear, she lets herself feed into it-she doesn't dare try to hold back her tears.
Because he's enjoying this.
And if he's enjoying having a feeling of power, having the ability to make her shake in her socks and or cry, she should let him.

But his grip suddenly softens.
And he puts his hat on her head, pulls it down so it covers her face and turns around.
Arms folded, head looking down, hand up to mouth.

She expels her breath, drags her fingers through her hair so it's adjusted normally again and watches his back with confusion.

Hanako:"You're getting in the way. Leave. You know where your room is, I suspect."

She snaps out of her trance, grabs either side of her dress and hurries out, forgetting to close the door behind her.
Her breath is still unsteady as she runs through the jagged hallways, almost tripping over the lengthy material.

I didn't do anything.

"If anything it was him..."
Squinting her eyes, she clutches near her heart, her breathing more hoarse than usual.

"-Shouldn't have ran."
She covers her mouth and coughs, her brows creasing when she pulls her hands away from her lips and she sees sprinkles of red amongst her pale skin.

"No."
Her knees buckle and she falls, her feet numb.
This has never happened before.
How much longer do I-?

"Are you okay?"
A voice higher in pitch asks and she looks to her left immediately:
The identical to no.7 appearing curious.

"I'm not, not supposed to-"
She stands, though wobbly, and turns her self from him, trying to walk at a faster pace.

Tsukasa:"Hey you coughed up blood."

"It's fine."
She sniffles.

Tsukasa:"Hey, why are you crying?"

"I'm not."

Tsukasa:"But you have a tear here and over here."
He prods her cheek and she halts.

"Listen, Tsukasa kun. I'm fine okay? I'm just a little bit overwhelmed right now."

Tsukasa:"Overwhelmed, why?"

"Because I miss my parents and my friends and i'm spending my last moments here and I'm dying."
She says bluntly, his expression still appearing that of a naive one.

Tsukasa:"Wait. I don't want you to cry."
He grabs her arm.

"Eh?"

Tsukasa:"Teaparty?"

"I can't."

Tsukasa:"Why?"
