"Come home," May whimpered. She knew what his answer was, but she still had to try. "Please, Ash, just come home."
Ash only looked away guiltily in response.
Suddenly, her tears began to fall, and Ash quickly pulled her into his arms and held her close.
"Come home," she repeated more firmly, squeezing her eyes shut. "Please."
Ash remained silent, tightening his grip as she cried softly into his chest. In the end, though, part of May was actually glad he chose not to verbally deny her. Something about him saying it aloud would have made it so devastatingly final.
