Chapter 1653 Being Left Behind is Worse

--- Kamiko ---

"I don't want you to go,"

The words were barely a whisper from Pip but Kamiko still heard them. At rank 3 her senses were more than good enough to pick up the words but Kamiko couldn't help but wish she hadn't heard anything. It was the first thing Pip had said in over and hour and Kamiko found she really didn't have a good response.

*I'm not even sure if I was meant to hear that. But I did hear it. I don't know if I can pretend not to. So do I say nothing? I mean… what if I was meant to hear it? Pip is smart and she knows that my senses are better then normal… and that everyone else's senses are even better then mine. So what do I do here? What am I supposed to say? This isn't the first time someone's been sad to see me go but it feels so different… I don't understand why… I mean… what am I even meant to do?*

"I'm sorry,"

"I don't want you to apologise, I want you to stay longer," responded Pip.
