She nodded her head and followed after him, staying silent. She stopped when he did and watched him as he brought her a branch and she took it from him, sniffing at the blossoms curiously. She licked at them and then ate one.

 HE smiled looking at her; taking some in to his mouth when he set it down in front of her. "Cherry Blossoms... are the best..." He nodded. Knowing that he himself didn't taste much; but he would always go for cherry blossoms when he wanted to. They would usually grow in spots where it was dead... then to bring back life.
His plant preferred though was not of his favorite tasting.. He looked at her eating the petal and licked her lips; to hurry and try it. Wanting to know what she thought. His tail swung from one side to the next.

She finished chewing and swallowed, smiling softly at the branch in her hand, "It's good, I really like it..." she said softly, sitting down as she ate another one. They had a light taste to them, not overly sweet, like gummi fruits could be.

 "Me too..." When he sat he laid to his side. Almost forgetting to move now; though this would be the opportunity to ask.
"Why would you promise. Stay. Even when I first met you. It was the same."
His tail moved up and then slammed to the ground. If it had been another numa. They'd leave. Like most he met. Well. All of them that he met were the same. They left.

She sat there, eatting on the sweet petals and not minding when he slammed his tail down. She did remember that, when she found the graveyard, he told her to leave and she refused. She never did ask his name at that first meeting.
"Because....I feel at peace here....and I do not wish to leave you....do you want me to leave?" she asked, eating another petal.

 "...." He scuffed his nose and face inside his paws when she asked that. His tail going up then slamming again on the ground. He didn't know if he could tell her.. not just yet anyhow... Maybe.. He pondered a bit before answering.
"I told you I didn't care if you left." It hurt just to say that; it hurt to even now think she could leave. The gates were always open to her leaving. He knew that. He sighed some still hiding his face in his paws as he laid there.

She watched him and she had to ignore a sharp stinging pain in her chest when he said that. She put her bare branch down and stared down at her paws. Maybe he didn't want her around? Maybe he finally saw how grotesque she really was?
She didn't say anything, looking up at the moon, not understanding when she felt wetness on her eyes. She reached a paw up and wiped at her eye with a finger and saw wetness on there and this got her greatly confused.

 He moved his body up. He wanted to leave now. It was apparent that it be like so. He then moved his body to get up and walk away. He turned to glance at her once last time though. Seeing something trickle down her face. What was it?
He limped on over to her. Looking. Staring straight at her. He wondered. A flashback came in to play. He shuttered when he put his paw on her cheeks. The trickling tears. "No..." He slid his paws around her smaller frame and pulled her close.
"She did the same thing..." He mumbled under his breath.

She was silently startled when he was suddenly in front of her, and his paws were on her cheek. Then she found herself in his arms, not like she didn't mind, she preferred to be there. She wrapped her own paws around him, tears still falling down her face, "Who?" she whispered.

 He thought much before if he would show her. The grave. He snuffed his nose in her hair. His tail slamming up and down.
"...." He asked himself if he should show her. Again. "I can't tell you. I have to show you." She had said the same thing. To stay with him always. It wasn't true. She had the same thing slipping down her cheeks before that accident as well.

"Then show me..." she whispered, still having her arms wrapped around, silently scared if she let him go, he would disappear....and then she would be alone.

 His paw searched her cheeks once again. Wiping off the residue her eyes were leaving. He picked her up. Like a mother would carry an child. Looking like a hug; he walked with her in a hug all the way to that top of the hill. Sakura trees hanging over a grave with an intricate design of an angel. She had a bright smile. Her eyes were just holes.
"Her." He mumbled. He living to see almost every numa die and he'd bury them. He let her loose some. If she wanted to leave his arms she could; or if she didn't he'd still support her weight.

Morgy held onto him tightly when he picked her up and took her up a hill. She looked over at the statue under the cherry blossoms and she stared at it. A tear trailed down her cheek as she whispered, "I'm sorry..."

 "Sorry..." He repeated after her. "Thats what a lot of them say..." He looked to the grave then down at her. "You dont have to be sorry... I'll have tell you ... what happened one day.." His heart felt like it sank.
"Maybe... if you'd want or remember to hear it.."

"I would love to know about her....when you are ready to tell me..." she said softly, looking to the grave, wondering just who it was that was buried there....and why Arma seemed so....hurt by it.
