Rejection
Heart watched the two of them a small smirk on his face.
'Is this what marriage looked like? What happiness and a family looked like?'
He had never thought about whether he would want that for his life before. It seemed lovely, walking around with the love of your life, happily being able to smile with them every day. To love them and cherish them when the sun woke up, all the way till it went down again. To make each other laugh, to tease each other, and be there when you accidentally upset the other.
Which people were bound to do since life is hard and people are simple.
The image of Saint playing with Mouse popped into his head and he wondered if Saint had ever thought of kids.
He probably hadn't. Heart knew how hard thinking of a future had been at all for him back when Nguen was torturing his thoughts almost on a daily basis. That ticking time bomb that had been sitting about his head.
