But it's yours. It's no trouble - I can have it clean by tomorrow.

[abhero]

Look, It's just a fu -

[He stops immediately; Not because he’s worried about using obscene words around a kid, but because he has try his best to be patient. Not to let his temper to scare her again.]

Just a handkerchief. It’s not that hard to get another one, so don’t bother yourself with laundry.

[After a moment, he adds:]

You can drop by, but only if you want and definitely not to give back the handkerchief.

[saving_sound]

Huh? B-but--

[How is she supposed to return it to you then-?]

[abhero]

[HE DOESN'T WANT YOU TO RETURN IT geez Hibiki it's not like he let you borrow money.

He huffs.]

I don't need it back so just accept it.

[It's a matter of principal now. What's your problem why're you feeling bad for getting a handkercheif dirty stop being so nice.]

[saving_sound]

[Oh...

Her head dips sadly. He keeps doing so many nice things for her despite everything she's inflicted on him. And now she can't even do something in return...?]

...O-okay. I'll keep it.

[The least she can do is take as best care of the handkerchief as possible.]

[abhero]

[Hamel sighs internally. What did he say wrong now? Maybe he should just stop trying to be kind. Being a cold unsympathetic asshole, that’s what he’s good at, he should stick to that.

But maybe not at this exact moment.]

Good.

[He gets to his feet.]

Should probably get going. Cheer up, your face will be stuck like this if you keep frowning.

[Says the perpetual frowner.]

[saving_sound]

[That does seem to start her out of her sorrows, at least.]

S-- Stuck?

[But as he is in the middle of leaving, she gives a quick nod.]

M-mm... Sorry for taking so much of your time.

[abhero]

[Sorry again…]

Y’know, I’m starting to think you’re doing it on purpose. Apology denied.

[But he smirks.]

I never spend time on anything I don’t want to. See ya around, Hibiki.

[And with a last wave, he’s out.]

[saving_sound]

Ah--

[Realizing her mistake, she slaps a hand over her mouth. But of course it's too late now, and the action only gets in the way when she tries to say good-bye, causing her words to be delayed.]

Mm-- Good-bye!
