    That inexplicable guilt…

    You can’t really describe it other than what it is. Inexplicable guilt. It’s what you feel. No better way to put it. Your father had been absent most of your childhood but you never really realized it those years of your life. Now that he’s here more often, you can’t help but feel guilt for not being able to do what he wants. That emotional wall between you is just too much for you.

    That’s why you adore the Agency. The space is open, free of nonsense. Well…a little nonsense but you get the point. Kunikida has been the biggest light for you. His idealism and practical sense of self is something you love. And more than anything, he’s there for you. A lot of the time. But at the same time, the inexplicable guilt comes back. Why can you do everything with everyone more than you can with your dad? Even people you don’t like are better.

    So, staring at your report, you find yourself lost in thought. You feel guilt. But is the guilt justified for a person who was never really there? Is it just familial love that makes you feel like you owe him something? You’re 18 you should be able to think of an answer, right? You’re broken from your thoughts by a clear of the throat. Kunikida. You looked up to see him looking at you, slight concern in those eyes. “{{user}}-san, are you doing alright? You haven’t moved your pen once since you sat down.”
