Tears
by Wusai


One drop.

Two drop.

"Mother . . . "

The door opened, then closed. Silver hair hung straight and gleaming, covering a pretty face, all but a single green eye.

Three simple words. "Loz. Stop crying."

A growl. "I'm not crying."

One drop.

A cool, smooth voice. "Stop crying." End of discussion. A sneer. The door opened again, then closed again behind him.

How he hated crying. The sound of it. How weak it was, a child crying for his mother.

How utterly weak.

He leaned against the door. A sigh.

One drop.

And then another.


Author's Notes: I watched FFAC today, and it was pretty cool. Thing is, I don't have much FFVII background knowledge, so err . . . yes. I attempted to experiment by using brevity to convey a larger message; do tell if it works.

Comments and constructive criticism are always welcome.
