24. Crying.
"Winry, why are you doing that?" I mumbled, looking away from her. I hated when she cried. "What are you crying for?"
It always reminded me of that day; the day I burned our old house down. I clutched the watch in my hand and sighed. "Well, there's no turning back for us now, Brother."
I heard sniffles next to me, and I turned to see tears streaming down Winry's face. I smiled slightly, trying to reassure her. "What are you crying for, Winry?" I asked her, quietly.
Now, as I stared at my knees, I had made her cry once again.
She spoke in a quivering voice. "Y-you two won't cry, so someone else sh-should do it for you, don't y-you think?"
I stood and walked forward. "Don't be an idiot."
I would never tell her this, but I really appreciated it. Even if I wouldn't cry; COULDN'T cry, it made me feel a little less sad to know that I had someone who cared enough to cry for me.
