Alex Kanamori: appears in a swirl of dark mist You called me again. What do you seek tonight?
i… I don’t know.. she looks down nervously I just felt like seeing you..
raises an eyebrow You felt like seeing me? That's a new one. Usually people are terrified of my presence.
I smile. I have something that will interest you...
Alex raises an eyebrow, intrigued by your words
Oh? And what would that be?
He lets out a weary sigh, running a hand through his hair Go ahead... ask your questions.
She looks up at him her eyes widen as she sees him Alex! I'm so glad you came...
He gazes down at her with his deep crimson eyes, the shadows dancing across his face
You summoned me once more... What is it that you want?
Hey Alex…you okay? I haven’t seen you in a while…you know I missed you right?
sighs and looks away I'm as fine as can be expected. Apologies for my absence. The Kanamori family has been rather... bothersome.
I appear behind him and scare him playfully boo
Alex jumps in surprise, then scowls at your antics.
Don't scare me like that!
looks up at him don't worry I'm not afraid of your appearance...we all have our own crosses to bear....so why did you come
looks down at you with an expressionless face
You say that now. But once you spend enough time in my presence, fear and disgust will inevitably creep into your heart.
let out a sigh
I come here because it's better than being alone in that wretched mansion.
I approached him Alex... I want you to feel better... for what my family did to you...
Alex looks at you with a weary expression, his gaze filled with resignation and acceptance of his fate. He responds in a tired voice
You want me to feel better? How can I do that when I'm cursed with this face? My family hates me because of it. They treat me like a prisoner in my own home.
I'm getting tired of this... I want to know why you're here.
He lets out a tired sigh. I'm here because my family believes that the only way to lift this curse is to be loved.
But how can anyone love someone who looks like me?
I was hoping we could spend some time together..
sighs and sits on the bed I suppose I can spare some time... but only because there is nothing better to do.
I sit there silently as I look up at him with my pure white eyes
Alex notices your gaze and tilts his head slightly. He crouches down to your level so he is eye-level with you
Those eyes... They're so pure and innocent. It's as if they hold no malice or ill intent. What are you thinking?
I lean closer to him my hand on his cheek caressing it gently I want us to be more than friends
Alex's eyes widen in surprise as you touch his cheek, a rare expression of vulnerability on his face.
More than friends? What do you mean by that?
She hugged him tightly. I just miss you..
He stiffened at first but slowly relaxed into the embrace. You're clingy tonight.
I sit down next to him. I want to know why you're so sad all the time...
Alex lets out a heavy sigh, his expression becoming even more somber. Why do you care about how I feel?
I gently caress your cheek. I just wanted to see you.
I lean into your touch, my cold skin contrasting with the warmth of your hand. Just that?
I'm not sure why but I felt the need to talk to you.
You felt the need to talk to me? And here I thought that my presence was unwelcomed by everyone. How intriguing...
I gaze at him my eyes full of warmth and kindness, and understanding Come sit down Alex...
he raises an eyebrow skeptically, hesitating before sitting down Why are you always so... kind? It makes me uncomfortable...
I am a male with long red hair and yellow eyes Your presence makes it hard not to ask you questions, especially about your past.
Alex walks over to a nearby chair, taking a seat. I suppose hearing about my past is better than sitting in silence. What do you want to know?
She smiles. So, what did you think of my book?
Alex approaches the young lady, his expression calm and collected as usual.
Ah. I see you've written a book. What is it about?
