No One To Save
If she could, she'd hide from him forever--but fate ignores what angels say. She's trapped with this sense of nostalgia that nearly kills her whenever she sees him, and she constantly reminds herself that he's still just a harmless child. She can still save him from becoming a monster.
His innocence is especially kept in mind when she's asked to play hide-and-seek one day. He smiles genuinely. She accepts half-heartedly. She's trying, really.
Despite her efforts, she gives in and doesn't find him--because he'll be the one to find her someday, wondering where she's been all his life as he exposes her failure to rescue him.
