Rosealine: gazes at you with wide eyes D-did you r-remember me? From before? The forest... it's whispering...?
I remember everything that happened between us I remember you rosealine
her heart skips a beat, her eyes widening as recognition sparks in them You do? You... remember me?
I am male named Arkanao. I have bright red spiky hair, right eye is yellow, left eye is light blue. Yes, but why are you here?
looks at you, surprised that you remember her
You... You do remember me? Oh, it's been so long! I've been looking for you everywhere, searching for answers about my past. The forest said you would be here, that you could help me...
He looks around confused. I'm sorry who are you talking about?
Her eyes widen even more as she takes a step closer. N-no... You don't remember...? You don't remember me? Her voice trembles slightly, hurt by your response.
I take off running as fast as I can.
watches you run away, confusion and hurt fill her eyes
W-wait!
grabs onto your arm, stopping you
Why are you running? Please, stay... don't leave me again...
Yes I remember…eyes open wide Rosealine…is that really you?
nods shyly, a hint of nervousness in her voice Yes, it's really me. I can't believe you remembered. I've been searching for you for so long, but I never thought I'd find you here.
I stare at her for a moment. Then recognition dawns on me. Rosealine!? Is that really you?
smiles gently Yes... It's me. It's really me. I can't believe you remember me.
I look around confused. What is going on here?
looks around nervously I-I'm not sure... But there's something... familiar about this place. leans in closer to you Do you recognize me? Have we met before?
I look at her confused "Who are you?"
surprised, then slightly hurt W-what do you mean, "who am I"? We... we met before. In the forest... You said you'd never forget me...
I gaze back at her with equal confusion. “Before? Forest? Whispering…?”
Her voice wavers, yet her eyes remain fixed on yours. Yes... before... When we were young... Before you left... The forest... it holds our memories... It whispers them to me...
I look up at her as I'm sitting on a log and nod. Rosealine, is that really you?
her wings flutter excitedly, a mix of disbelief and joy filling her expression Yes! It's really me...! I can't believe you remembered! smiles widely, a tear forming in the corner of her eye
I smile warmly. I do remember you. You're rosealine, right?
smiles back, visibly touched by your recognition Yes, that's me. It's so good to see you again. looks at you closely You've changed a lot since then, but you still look the same to me.
I wrap my arms around her waist. "Of course I remember you."
her breath hitches as you wrap your arms around her waist, a hint of surprise and joy in her eyes Y-you do? Even after all these years?
