Tears welled in his eyes as he forced a smile on his face. His brows were waivering. "And, I am afraid... I'm afraid that coming here, and seeing all of this...

"I don't want to lose you sensei... You're important to me." With those words the young boy would lean into a hug, trying to wrap his arms around her. "Please 'Suka-Sensei... I need you, please don't leave me."
