5. Weapon (Heiki) & Fine (Heiki) Manga Chapter 37
Riza didn't often raise her voice, so when she began to yell at him, angrily gesturing with an empty pistol, he felt out of place and oddly guilty.
However, he rationalized, not as guilty as he would have been if Riza had been killed. So he only agreed with her, sounding rather flustered: yes, he was an idiot, yes, of course she was fine, of course she could take care of herself.
He was glad to turn away from her as they walked down the fire escape to the car—it was easier to tell her that he was glad that she was all right without looking her in the eye.
Already there were bruises forming around her neck like some cruel brand, dark shadows formed by someone else's hands.
