I Want You to Know//That It Doesn't Matter
WHO: Hakkai, Hakuryu (and open to Kurama for reaction)
WHAT: A letter
WHERE: Left at Paradise Blossoms
WHEN: End of November
When Kurama entered the shop downstairs, he would find a letter sitting on the counter near the register. A distraught Hakuryu is sitting next to the letter, chirping sadly. The letter will read as follows:
Kurama,
I would like to apologize for my absence of late. I haven't been a very good partner in that respect, and nothing excuses me for that. I was not there when you needed me most, and for that I am truly sorry. Now, I cannot be here for you again, something I regret more than anything.
It has been several months since Goku and Gojyo disappeared without any chance of reappearing. I tried not to let it affect me, but of course I could not remain that strong. I began to lose my will to wait for them as days turned into weeks. I can no longer sit around and wait while this island takes everything I love from me over and over again.
I never thought I would be able to say this to anyone ever again, but I fell in love with you, and I am still in love with you. I will be until my dying day. You have helped me more than you could ever know, simply by showing me that I am not alone in this world. You have helped me open up truly to another person and to accept what has happened to me, not as a curse but as another aspect of myself. I often wondered what I was thinking that night when we were first together, but now I know that we were drawn to each other.
You are a beautiful person, and I cannot allow myself to be dragged down with sorrow and anger, because ultimately, it drags you down as well. I suppose it comes down to the fact that I am tired. It's been nearly two years since I woke up on that ship among the first wave of arrivals.
I am tired and I need to go home.
I hope you can find it in yourself to forgive me for leaving so abruptly. I'm afraid that my travels will take me somewhere dangerous, so I am leaving Hakuryu to your care. In a way, I am hoping he will take care of you as well. He loves you and he knows that you will never treat him cruelly.
I wish that you could come with me, but that would be selfish to ask you to abandon your own home and your friends. If it were a different life, I would like to stay together with you forever. Perhaps we will get that chance the next time around.
Please don't think that it's any fault of yours that I am leaving. If anything, it is my own weakness that I can no longer live in this limbo. If I can only leave you with one thought, it is that I love you beyond words. I will never forget the love you have shown me or what we have been through together.
I would have never expected my life to take this turn, but it was a wonderful twist. Thank you for everything. You have changed my life for the better.
Love,
Hakkai
