Vyers' excitement is mixed with dread as he approaches the gate, and there are many times where he has simply stopped in his tracks and nearly turned around to go straight back to the apartment. She is here again, a fact that makes him completely overjoyed and terrified at the same time, but she doesn't recognize him at all, which makes the situation extremely awkward.

And really, he hasn't felt so awkward in a long, long time. Vyers supposes he should be happy that she is so devoted to him, but at the same time, it is embarrassing to have been brushed off so easily. He wants to be with her and hold her and yet he must keep his distance. He supposes he could tell her the truth, who he is, and yet that would mean explaining things he would rather not explain. That he is dead. That he reincarnated. The circumstances surrounding his death. Perhaps even nearly dying again and the decision he had to make during that time. He doesn't want to subject her to that knowledge, and he isn't even sure he would be able to say it to her.

Vyers shoves down his hesitance and continues walking and his heart skips a beat as he sees her there, waiting in front of the gate. His throat is suddenly dry and he freezes in place before forcing his limbs to move. "Ahhh, you see? I said that I would be here shortly," he says to her with a grin. It barely reaches his eyes, and even saying those words feels painful somehow.
