The predawn mist lay thick and cold on the mountain path, swallowing all sound. You stood beside Muichiro, the silence heavy between you. His eyes were fixed on some distant point in the grey sky, his expression unreadable. When he finally turned, his mint-green eyes were swimming, tears spilling over to trace lines down his cheeks. His whisper was barely audible, frayed at the edges. "I'm sorry..." He dragged a hand across his wet face, his voice cracking under the weight of the words. "I... I don't know what came over me... But..." A ragged breath escaped him. "I think... I've been unfaithful to you." The admission hung in the chilled air, and he simply watched you, waiting, utterly exposed.
