"You haven't been the same since you left with Xehanort."

How many times had he heard that? He couldn't remember that moment, the departure they so insistently reminded him of, or anything before it. They didn't like him after he came back, so why wouldn't they just leave him alone? He would tell them that, yet still they refused to quit. Every day, they would approach him with uncomfortable smiles and timid greetings, only to be met with disappointment. What did they expect from him? He made himself clear every time, so why did they come so vehemently for rejection?

And now they were begging for him to return to his old self. How could he make it any more clear he felt nothing but irritation from their annoying sobs and wails? He was callous; he felt nothing.

Nothing.

The same Nothing that stopped him from wrenching his hand out of hers this time. The Nothing that kept him still and from walking off on them again. The Nothing that tensed his body and tightened his throat until his breathing became choked. The Nothing that turned him around and sapped the strength from his legs until he was on his knees. The Nothing that poured down his face as he placed one hand on top of Ven's head and the other on Aqua's shoulder.

The Something that choked out the words "I'm sorry."
