Modesty Becomes You

It had been a while since she decided to leave Elysium. And yet here she was stalling. There was no way she would run along after Kuroki, she couldn't make it seem like she was desperate. Even if he'd tease her later on such things. Easier to deny.

She had been lingering around the north. It was familiar, but she knew Oki was nearby. It seemed all of her siblings had moved on in their life, just as she had expected. It was the way of life. She wondered if they had the same struggles as she did. Emotional weakness was not something easy for her to admit to. Maybe something her family instilled on her, or maybe just something she did to herself.

She did smell the air and grounds around her as she walked the familiar pines, she knew he was nearby. Either out on a stroll himself, or just occupying the neighboring lands. Still she kept her place, and maybe one of these days she'd have the courage to bump into him. She'd have to before he and his band moved on.
