Please leave a message.

[redlikecrimson]

Why indeed. There is no explanation other than I simply do.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

Aya, if I didn't know better, sometimes I'd swear you were courting me.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

I don't think I'd be any good at courting anyone anyway.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

No, people just fall for you without you trying.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

It would be better if they didn't fall for me.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

That's what I've been trying to do.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

[There's a long pause before he speaks again.]

You can do what you like with your gift, Soma. It's yours now.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

[There's a lot of long pauses between them these days. If they were face to face, it would be even more awkward.]

I don't know what I want anymore, Aya.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

Try to think less on it, Soma. Sometimes our instincts will guide us to the path we need to go.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

My instincts are torn in two. You know how I feel.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

I also know you tend to push me away any chance you have.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

I don't want to be hurt again. And I don't want Ken to be hurt, either.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

Pain of the heart is always the most difficult to come back from.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

If there was no Ken... I'd try. But he doesn't deserve to be hurt just for the sake of my happiness.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

Nor do you deserve suffering.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

You don't know that.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

I do know that.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

What if this is karma?

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

What if it's just self punishment?

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

I don't know what it is. But every time I start to feel happiness, it's taken away.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

I've known that before.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

Then you know why I'm afraid.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

Likely better than most.

Voice

[power_of_dominance]

But it still doesn't give me the right to separate you from Ken.

Voice

[redlikecrimson]

Soma, I won't try to change your mind. I only ask that you not give up on your own happiness.
