Nemo shook his head when Jerry said that word. That fucking word. It was enough to break the fish, he was so used to people leaving. His mom hadn't really left, but her absence left a big hole in his life, along with so many other people leaving. "N-no Jerry I-I don't-you-please...." he said. He wanted to beg, to scream, to try to tell him to stay but he knew the words couldn't come out. And even if they did it wouldn't work anyway, Jerry seemed to have his mind set. "Will I ever see you again? O-or is this the end of the story?" he asked, cheeks red and a bit puffy from crying.
Jerry struggled seeing Nemo so devastated. He wanted to comfort him but he wasn't sure how. "I don't know for sure, Nemo. I doubt it but I wouldn't like you to expect my return when I can't promise you one." He hugged his friend one last time tightly. "Please don't make this any harder..." He muttered.
