If Heaven Forbids (CA - Saber)

PreviousPage 7 of 7

" Woah," Riley gasped as he stared mesmerized at the revealed scar. " How did you get that?" He asked still fixated.

Henry shot a warning glance towards his charming but naive friend. " Riley, he probably doesn't want to say. Not everyone wants to share their life story, remember?"

" Oh right.." Riley's face sagged by the reminder. " Sorry Amos, you don't have to share if you don't want to."

Amos quietly rebuttoned his shirt.

"Open heart surgery." He said, for Riley's sake alone. At least, the whimsical flute had begun again, and the world was as it should be... though his own music had turned the atmosphere quite dreary a moment afore.

" Oooh," Riley cooed. " Saber has heart problems too" he added, glancing over towards Henry.

" It's just palpitations." Henry stated flatly.

The room easily fell into silence once more, as the two newly acquainted strangers both seemed uninterested in taking up much of the space with conversation. Upon invitation however, Riley quickly filled the void the two others refused to take, both feeling much more content to listening.

After some time the two guests left, leaving many questions still unanswered. As for the keeper of those secrets, all that happened that day that dared to point to any sort of clue was a short but carefully placed call informing the person on the other line who he had seen that day. Precise care was taken by he, but for how long the truth could remain in shadow was to be seen later down the road, for he had succeeded that day to keep them so.
