A sore loser [1/2]

"Sniff…Sniff…I am sorry Dearest. I didn't mean to break down like this…"

I continued to hug my lovely princess as I gently rubbed her back, "There is nothing to forgive Lilly. Just let it all out. I love you all the same."

"Are you not angry that I complain? You never pushed me to ascend, yet after all that boasting, I now regret and whine like a brat all because I lost my memories," she added between sniffles.

I took my handkerchief and pressed it to her near perfect nose bridge. Lilly blew out the snot into the cloth in reflex. Funnily enough, she was used to being served like this. I folded the handkerchief inward and used a clean side to wipe Lilly's tears.

"Yes, but I am the one to blame. I was the one who gave you that unreasonable order. And I neglected you when you felt your memories disappear. Forgive my incompetence Lilly. I promised you so much but remain a dumb bastard who can only make you cry."
