“You need to tell Sora I’m leaving,” Battousai demanded, “I’m not coming back till I’ve been forgive of my sins!”
Then he took off…into the snow…I’m sure I’ll see him again…but how am I going to tell Sora…
I walked into Sora’s room…she was awake…I asked her what she was doing up so late, then she asked me why am I in her room so late…I guess we both had the same answer. She started to cry…then asked me why he would leave her? I answered, “He didn’t leave you, he would by no means leave you…he just left so he could be forgiven for things he never wanted to do.” I looked at her…she was still crying…I hate it when she cries…it makes me seem so worthless. In a weird way…I forgot about my goal…my true calling in life…I forgot who I was! I’m Diaz! The son of Diablo! Yet again, these people make me feel like I have a family…they make me feel grateful I have life! But once Battousai left, he showed me I would have to leave sometime…and when that day comes…I’ll make sure Sora hates me before I leave, that way she won’t miss me.
Then she looked at me…and said I would have to go someday too. Like she read my mind, except she stopped crying…then she gave me a hug. “I’m going to miss Battousai!” she wined! “I am too…” I replied as I held her head in my chest…I felt her tears in my shirt…
“Maybe you should get some sleep?” I asked her
“No…I think I’m going to wait…” she said with a smile…
Then I walked outside…it was still snowing…like Battousai was still staring at me.
“I hope you become forgiven Battousai!” I cried out to the snow hoping Battousai hears me…then…the snow stopped……
