SS: Ruki's Christmas (2)

‘I shouldn’t be involved with her further than this… She got her freedom back and my interest in her already waned down to a simple memory that I put to the back of my mind.’

Her reaction was also the same. Even with the blockade gone, she stared blankly into my face with a confused expression.
