"My love I think it's time for you to finish what you started." Said Frost with a slightly morose expression, dreading this separation no less than Khione but unlike her he was able to focus on the future rather than the painful present. Perhaps because this was not his first love nor his first time leaving home alas what needed to happen needed to happen.
He had received her heartfelt gifts so now it was time for her to send him off, to say goodbye to the man that had wormed his way so deeply into her heart.
Hearing his words and after desperately searching her brain for a way to delay the inevitable and coming up short tears formed in Khione's eyes, the pain in her expression being enough to make any sane man's heart bleed.
Frost wanted to pull her in close, the ease her pain with untold affection but this was a pain she needed to endure. He could not stay.
