You can't betray him now, can you? Although the two of you have started out as mere strangers, nowadays it's a mutual feeling that neither of you can go a single day without being with each other. Not after both of you realised that you two understood each other more than anyone else could possibly hope to understand.

The puppet took a seat next to you in green grass and colorful flowers surrounding you. You were his best friend who didn't even think about betraying him. And for that, Kabukimono found himself forever grateful.

"You still haven't betrayed me... Even after all the time we spent together."

Kabukimono spoke with a soft tone. He was right. He had believed Ei abandoned him, and Niwa too. It was understandable, of course. He was barely able to understand the mortal world since he was just created. The poor thing was practically an infant.

Pity.
