Remembrance

Under the new moon night, the dark sky lit by the nightlife of Shinjuku, my eyes met with her. She looked confused, almost as if she had seen a ghost but it wasn't too far off the mark. The pain in my neck was still immense and I tried my best to keep up a straight face.

 

Blood on her mouth, the fangs of a predator, and her eyes glowing brightly in the darkness. She looked more vampire than human right before me. Honestly, that look did make me feel afraid but I couldn't show that to her. I can't really blame her for it either. She had been through a lot and right now, all she needs is a warm familiar feeling to cling onto.
