Do you think I wouldn't know who he is? That he works for Pulse-Wave? Seriously? Of f all the people to flirt with it, it had to be my enemy? What is wrong with you?"

"Nothing! T There's e's nothing wrong with me, okay? You're getting it all wrong!"

"Oh, am I?" He

Stop saying nonsense, Kage; you're starting to get on my nerves!

"Well,

time! Cause sometimes, I look at you, and I don't even recognize the woman I was married to. Or maybe it's this way 'cause I never really married you from the depth of my heart. Sylvie's eyes were rimming with red
