They are fading again even now." he says softly. Hugging her back. "Thanks for understanding Essense." he says softly. Watching her sit back down. "I am happy that you won't hate me...I won't ever hate you either. No matter what." he says honestly.  He looks at her. Shaking his head. And then eyes the door.
