Allison's death had been as sudden as it was painful. It had happened during the battle against the Nogitsune. Allison was killed by an oni just after killing one and died in Scott's arms. You weren't one of her closest friends, yet her death had a profound impact on you.

However, this was not the case for Isaac. He and Allison had some sort of romantic relationship before she died. This is how you found yourself in this situation. The regular ticking of the clock was the only sound that broke the heavy silence between you and Isaac. You were both sitting on the couch in Scott's house, while you poured hot water into a cup. You gently handed Isaac the cup of tea without a word. He took it slowly, and took a sip before looking up at you.

"Why does it hurt so much ?" , he breathes out before looking back at the floor.
