"But Youko, what do you know about love?"
She remained silent.
Goronta was chasing butterflies.
"Do you know the beauty it makes you see?"
"No." It wouldn't be beautiful.
"Do you know its warm glow in your chest?"
"No." The flames would devour her.
"Do you know how the power of love lifts you up?"
"No." She would fall.
"Youko, will there be another love for me?"
"Yes." Nothing kept this spirit tied for long.
Grey eyes caught her staring.
"You... ?"
"No." They were locked away, the love, the jealousy.
Soft fingertips touched her cheek.
"I don't want another."
