Helkep's eyes lay on the ground, trembling slightly.
"Why? I can't understand, why Helkep? Why are you deceiving yourself? Repentance isn't a bad thing but you need to understand that you are not doing it consciously and that you... have done nothing that needs to be repented on." Ella's dim silver eyes looked at him, his body appeared to be shrouded in fog in her eyes.
'This is the same. Back when he saved me, he looked so otherworldly, like a divine entity, shrouded in mystery. But...I truly wish, this time for the fog to be the same... but I know, it's not.' A sigh escaped Ella's mouth.
Tuck! Tuck! Tuck!
The low heels that Ella wore created loud sounds that reverberated in the surroundings.
Helkep looked up, in his eyes Ella's figure kept getting smaller and smaller.
"Deceiving myself... Am I?" Helkep sat there quietly. Minutes turned to hours before he finally mustered up the courage to get up.
His gaze rested on the boy's unconscious body and the knife next to him.
