Chapter 45:Status [4]

Not even a moment after I repeated those words did the answer come, in an emotionless and cold tone.

"I know."

With those two words, it was over.

I was done dreaming.

Dreaming that I could be friends or even talk to her normally.

It was time for me to awaken to the inevitable reality of our situation.

No matter how much I attempted to change the plot, the inevitable remained.

We were enemies.

No matter how much we interacted now or at Glaive, one day, we would stand on opposite sides of the warzone.

I could make other friends and talk to other people, so there was no point in being stuck on her...is what I tried to tell myself.

Perhaps my words had worked, or perhaps she had seen right through them.

No matter her interpretation, she must dislike me in some way now.

Pausing, I shifted my gaze upward, staring at the pure orange sky above, devoid of any clouds.
