Love him?
Gloves was bewildered.
She could never.
It wasn't just because of his certain death.
She didn't dare love.
Love brings misery.
Love brings death.
Love brings jealousy and misery.
Love caused the death of her father;
Love caused the betrayal of her mother.

"I'll only be gone a few days." She had promised Gloves.
All those years ago.
"Be good for mama, okay?"
The small child nodded, eyes tearing up at her mother's warm touch.
"Puw-amise you'll be back?"
A startled light passed her mother's gaze.
Yet she still lied.
"Of course darling~ I love you."
"I lav you too!"
The innocence that has yet to be tainted smiled brightly.
Waved enthusiastically as her mother hurriedly;
Rapidly left in a car with another man.
Left her house, left her children.
Left her child to the father.
