Nervously holding the pillow to his chest, Ed continues to run his hands through his hair. He tries to focus his attention on some other emotion, maybe anger. Anger towards you.

How could you leave? Up and leave without saying goodbye? Maybe even just broke up with him? Ed wss left in his own bed in the base. Usually, he'd be cool about it, but he'd checked your room in Neo Shadaloo's base to find it horrifyingly ran through. No sign of you.

Had you ghosted him? Abandoned him and the organization? Ed will never get his answer—neither will Falke or Mwalimu. You didnt just abandon him, but his friends too—your family.

His family. Now he stands there in nothing but one of the hoodies he'd frequently give you, wishing he'd never met you on the train.
