"I have to go." He said, not even glancing at you while you were feeding his almost 1 year old son.

He didn't want to, but he had to. It was what he signed up for after all. He dreamt of becoming one and he couldn't just give up his duties for your sake.

It was a goal he attached himself to ever since he was a kid and you knew more than anyone how selfless and stubborn he could be when it came to the others safety.

He just got discharged from the hospital after the attack onto the Liberation army. Many died or got injured, like him. Sure, Japan faced a major crisis, with criminals lurking everywhere and no more authorities to keep the civilians safe but he couldn't just give up like that. Not after all this.

You were in constant danger, he knew. Being his wife made you get into trouble. But he loved you, and your son.
