[D14, EM](Soyokaze's Room) Raining (Closed)

[Asahina Soyokaze]

"I still don't know what to say to either of them, my beloved and my betrothed. i don't WANT to hate Mitsuki and I have no idea how to look Bai in the eye and not cry, and I don't want to do that to her."

[Kitsu Moshumaru]

"The don't hate the Mitsuki, but don't expect Bai from her. She is her own woman - in time, you'll come to appreciate each other. Speak with her earnestly, but politely - if you have concerns, do not hide them, but address them not as an antagonist, but as an ally. Does that help?"

[Asahina Soyokaze]

he stifled a last sniff. "And Bai? Murato? Should i even talk to her or let them be?"

[Kitsu Moshumaru]

This... this was the hard part.

"If she didn't come to see you at a moment like this, she isn't worth it. Enjoy what you had, be proud that you did and stand tall, a superior man to the one that came before."

[Asahina Soyokaze]

"Isn't worth it?" he was incredulous but not angry.

[Kitsu Moshumaru]

"Isn't worth it. The people worth keeping in your life aren't the ones who are there when you're doing well, but who support you when you're not. Would you not consider this one of your lowest points?"

[Asahina Soyokaze]

"Yes but surely she is conflicted. She can't just run away from Murato to be in my arms as much as I want that."

Need that.

[Kitsu Moshumaru]

"If she was, surely she would have done - sent - something? anything?"

[Asahina Soyokaze]

"I can't believe it was all a lie. I cant."

[Kitsu Moshumaru]

"I'm not saying it was. But I'm saying if she didn't choose to support you now, then you shouldn't worry too much about moving on."
