391 - Lilith's Origin

"Lilith?" Noah asked, worried, as he saw a pair of tears fall from the snake's eyes. 'Why is she crying? Did calling her that hurt her' he asked himself, completely at a loss as to why she would be crying.

"It's nothing," she told him, as she turned her face away. Hiding her tears. "It's just... that's how y—Lucifer used to call me when we were... nevermind," she interrupted herself, almost calling Noah Lucifer before completing the sentence.

'I see,' he thought, understanding now why she had cried. There was still the point of her now remembering this until she could be emotional about it, her memory clearly having recovered by at least some bit. He extended his arms, pulling her close to him and lying her head over his shoulder. "It must have been tough, having forgotten everything," he muttered, the snake letting go of herself and just leaning onto him with her eyes closed, her tears sogging up his pajamas.
