“You think I’m that important?” Yuuki sounded doubtful at best. If she’d ever pondered her own worth, it wasn’t from that angle. “Or do you just want me to be?”


Valid point, but not based in reality. Ken understood Yuuki—what she wanted and needed, how she functioned. She knew all too well how much they differed in terms of life goals and priorities. It wasn’t difficult to see that Yuuki had a big heart, that she embraced emotion and empathy. Proof of it lay in everything she did, interwoven in her life, her music, and her decision to assist Kenna.

I mean, if you still wanna help me.”
