Day 45 [Text]

Namine went home.

[That's all that needs to be said really. Roxas doesn't want to believe it but that's the reality. They'd been travelling together, and they were going to explore Kanto together like they did Johto, and now. Now he's on his own again.

It's weird.

He hasn't felt like this in a long time, doesn't really know what to do with the emotions setting in on him.

It hurts. And he misses her.]

Hey.

[He enters the room and approaches Roxas, though not before patting Sparky's head. His shoulder bears a Litwick that greets them both quietly, and his hands a bag of cookies.]

Have any members of her team joined you?

[Roxas pulls out a pokeball and opens it, revealing Salty the Togekiss.]

When I found out she was gone, I checked the box. I don't know about her other pokemon.

[Salty floats over to give him a knudge]

She's left traces of herself with you, at least. That's always good to have.

[What might also be good to have is the hug he now offers.]

[Roxas nods, trying to hold back his tears and leaning into the hug.]

...There's always the chance she'll come back.

[Which might be even worse if she remembers nothing of her previous stays, but still.]

I know. She's come back before.

It still hurts though. I mean, she was really important...

You've told her that, I hope.

I probably could have said it better.

She must have understood your meaning, however inexpertly you expressed it. It's obvious you care for her, after all.

I think she did, but still. I feel I could have said more.

...Even if you spent your every waking second saying it with every single word that can say it, it'd not feel enough.

Do you think she really knew? I mean, I don't want her feeling lonely back home.

Of course. The two of you spent much time together and enjoyed it, did you not? That would have told her everything she might need to know.

[Roxas nods. He's going to try and believe in Cecil's words.]

Thanks. For coming here.

I could hardly leave you alone at such a time.

Still, it means a lot.

I'm glad I can help, then, no matter how little.

It's a lot.

Is there anything I could do to make it a bigger lot?

I'd say ice cream, but I don't know if I feel like it right now.

It can wait until you know for certain you want some. I doubt it'll disappear before then.

I think I'll just stay here for the moment.

[He'll probably drift off to sleep.]

That's fine too. We can stay here forever if you need it.

I don't think I'll need that long. Namine would probably get mad at me if that was all I did.

If it upsets her, it won't do at all. Making friends angry is hardly a good way of missing them.
