Kage returned to the house. The house was empty, meaning those he saw as his most cherished family were not there. He cleared his parched throat but he could not. He sighed, grabbing a glass of water.
His eyes followed his pet baby opo-opo's movements across the wooden floors as it moved happily about. Back and forth. Back and forth. His eyes closed as teeth bit into the flesh of his lips.
A loud howl of regret and desperation wailed throughout the house.
"I'm sorry Aya... I'm so sorry... But I have to... I can't falter in this. I won't. Everything. Anything."
The only sound after that was sobs.
