Compassion
Looking back at the Reaper's Game, she had often wondered if she had been hypocritical when she demanded Neku to open up to her.
Shiki wasn't one to cry during movies. She was compassionate, yes, but she also reserved her emotions for herself.
This, however, made tears run down her face. She held back sobs, hoping that Neku wouldn't notice...
He noticed.
Neku put an arm around her, bringing her closer to him.
"It's okay Shiki. I'm here for you," he whispered, gently stroking the top of her head.
It was strange; it had just made her cry even more.
