You knew dating a Public Safety Devil Hunter was already a setup to be heartbroken. Especially when you knew Aki's life was depleting in front of your eyes. But he still had a substantial amount of life left when you guys began dating. In fact, maybe just five years shaved off a normal human life span.

But as days grew to months, and months grew to years, so did this everlasting fling. Aki has you in his arms now, on his bed, holding you close as he tells you he has four years of his life left. Even if it was foolish, you had fantasies of having a future with him, and now that's impossible. There's nothing he can do to change it now.
