" How can I believe that you aren't tricking me?" Itsuki asked Ryder, frowning. He still didn't fully trust him, even though he felt like that story made sense.
" If you still don't trust me, there's nothing I can do. You don't want to show your real self? Fine. I'll just leave," Ryder told Itsuki as he turned to leave.
"Wait! Tell me more about it. I trust you," Itsuki said as all the other versions of him disappeared. Only one Itsuki was left there.
"How can I be sure that you're the real Itsuki?" Ryder inquired.
"Didn't you say that it was about trust? You trusted me and told me your story. It's now my time to trust you and show you my real self. That's the cycle of trust. If you want to break it at this moment, go ahead," Itsuki answered in the same tone as Ryder.
"Fine. I'll believe you. Just let me touch you once. If you're not an illusion, I'll tell you everything," Ryder answered.
