Prince Kaiden was asking Shuu something, but he was not in his right mind to answer him. He just knew that he needed to tell the crown prince whatever he wanted to hear at the moment.
"You will stay with me forever, right, Shuu?"
Prince Kaiden asked, and he looked unlike himself at the moment. But no matter who he was right now, for Shuu, it was the one person who needed him right now.
So Shuu reached for the face in front of him and touched it gently.
"I… will stay with you… as long as you don't abandon me…"
Prince Kaiden's expression hardened, and he thrust even harder into Shuu.
"No-! You need to stay by my side even if I lose my way. I am forgetful and stubborn, but I promise you that you are the only one for me. So please, stay by my side until I realize it…"
Prince Kaiden's words seemed to hold a deeper meaning behind them, but Shuu's brain was all over the place.
