Rudy reached out, gently taking Rias' hand in his, providing a comforting touch. "Rias, you are special to me," he reassured her, his voice filled with sincerity. "Your love and devotion have always meant the world to me."
Rias lowered her gaze, her fingers intertwining with Rudy's. "But Jane... she stole the spot from me," she whispered, her voice filled with a mix of disappointment and resignation. "I lost to Angelica and Alice. I couldn't become your special girl."
Rudy's eyes softened with understanding as he squeezed Rias' hand gently. "Rias, love is a complex and multifaceted emotion," he explained. "It's not about being ranked or compared. Each person holds a unique place in my heart, including you. You have your own special significance."
Rias glanced up at Rudy, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears. "But I wanted to be more than just significant," she confessed, her voice wavering. "I wanted to be your everything, to hold the most special place in your heart."
