Ch. 6: Change (MOON)

With Haku carrying me in his arms, we returned to the castle…

 

Haku: "…"

 

Haku carefully disinfected the wound on my knee and wrapped it in a bandage.

 

Ah…

 

The wounded rabbit we'd encountered the day before came hopping over to me.

 

Oh good…it's gotten better.

 

Haku: "Does it hurt?"

 

OO: "Ah, no…"

 

Haku looked at my knee, his eyes filled with worry.

 

Haku: "I'm sorry…I suppose that was too much of a reaction in that kind of situation."

 

OO: "But…you were protecting me…"

 

Haku: "…were you scared?"

 

OO: "…yes."

 

I answered honestly and…-.

 

Haku: "…I see."

 

Suddenly, I realized Haku's eyes looked sharp as blades.

 

OO: "Haku…?"

 

Haku: "…"

 

He didn't respond as I called his name…

 

Once again, he just stared at my injured knee.
