The moment Jun uttered the word 'die', Ai felt a lump at the back of her throat. The flashes of that painful night barged in front of her eyes when she had witnessed him lying all bloodied in the car without any will to live.
"Don't say that you will die. I will only accept your love and protection if you live," Her lips trembled and pinched together in an attempt to not let her tears fall.
As she recalled the accident that would happen ten years from now, panic filled her chest. Jun was going to die in that accident and thinking that only ten more years remained of his life, she felt the fear of losing him creep in her chest.
She didn't know how that accident had happened, but she vowed to herself that she won't let anything happen to Jun. Since she knew the future, she will use that knowledge to protect his life.
She scooted closer to him. "I will protect you too. I won't let you die."
