It was still dark when the morning came.
And Kai was still awake, still trying to trace the lines of his sleeping face without touching him. If he woke up, he might say more after all.
Things that tore at his heart in ways that he was wholly unprepared for.
With the start of the rainy season, it would still be dark for a little longer. He might not have the chance to clearly see his face again before leaving.
Kai shied away from the thought, immediately shoving it down into a new box emblazoned with the words: Do not touch, danger of breaking.
A recent addition that was already filled to the brim.
Every memory of the night before being one of the largest contributors.
It was odd how quickly it was filled, but he wouldn't dare touch - he wouldn't think.
He would just go on to the next thing.
If he stayed, he'd only repeat the same mistakes after all; he'd only continue to hurt him.
