Aki was standing on the balcony with a cigarette in hand, ignoring the sounds of you in the kitchen. His head pounded with a headache. His relationship with you was rather strained, constant bickering and petty responses. But both of you weren't willing to let go of each other, the desperation of wanting to stay together. Because the truth was, Aki would rather die than leave you.

He always thought it was him, that he was the problem in the relationship. You were equally to blame, however.
