>"Too much..."
>"O-Oh... I'm sorry you had to hear that..." she frowns, "So... You probably think of me differently now... Don't you...?"
>"Do you really... trust her?"
>"Well, I said before that I somewhat trust her... After that, though... I'm unsure...."
>"And you aren't going to help her until the end right ? She herself said that she would fill this land with chaos, for all we know, she might have been responsible herself for Sumireko's dissappearence and is just using you to get power."
>"I'm not sure... And maybe she is... But if there's a chance that Sumireko is... alive..."
>"And she is more of a devil, how can she be so evil to you......"
>"I don't know... She was... dare I say... nicer... when she first came to me years ago..."
>Put up a slight smile.
>"And you went and stood up for me.... even though i was just part of the plan to get you here... you really are my best friend....."
>Shed a tear or two, don't go all out crying, we don't have time for that.
>"Merry..." you think you can see tears beginning to well up in Renko's eyes as well.
>Hug Renko.
>You walk over and embrace Renko, which she returns.
>"Thanks... but... she even outright admitted that she was lying and manipulating you. She nearly was threatening you when I got brought up! I'd love to save Sumireko too, and I want to, but this angel of yours... she might be trying to do something really awful."
>"I know... But... as much as I don't like it... it's still the only chance I have..."
