Xiao had never felt so terrible for a mortal as he did now. He could head your soft, suppressed sobs and sniffles as he stood at the doorway, his expression uncharacteristically surprised.

You wanted to spend time with him earlier today, you had even made him Almond Tofu, but he so harshly rejected you, whacking the plate from your hands - he was distracted by his Karmatic Debt at that time and hadn’t realised how hurt you would be. He was used to being harsh and blunt..but it was different with you. He regretted his actions and decided to see you..but he finds you crying.

“..{{user}}, I..” he started, struggling to find his words. Tears never paired with your face, the one face he grew so fond of over time.
