Were they really discussing this? Honestly this conversation she wanted to avoid more than anything. Her plan was tos how up one day and make up a stupid reason to explain her absence. Ha, did she really think that would work on her best friend?
“A-Apparently it’s been developing for a while. I found out a month ago. W-When I stopped coming to school is when I found out…” Her face showed her fear. The fear of never returning to school. The fear of growing weak. Worst off, the fear of dying. “K-Kaoru… c-can I go now?” She was shaking now. All she wanted to do was hide. To sulk to herself.
The blonde fell silent for a few moments. He contemplated the words he wanted to say and the ones he could save for later. From how his companion trembled, it was best to keep it short. That’s how he saw it after all.
“Mind if I tag along then? I need to pick up a few books and get rid of my wallet there anyways.” -- a joke to possibly brighten up the mood. ‘I’ll let her keep it at that for now.’ The last thing Kaoru wanted was to overwhelm her after the rollercoaster she’s still riding through.
