@battletowered continued from the ask
Hop suddenly felt a bit concerned. Had Leon been crying? His eyes were red like he had been. It was a bit strange seeing him like that, honestly he didn’t think his brother did cry. Watching as his brother made his way over to him, Hop’s eye widened a bit confused as he was pulled into a hug.
Him hugging his brother was a normal thing, mind you, but this type of hug was only one when something bad happened. Did something bad happen?
Hearing Leon explain what today was, it took Hop a moment for the memories of that day to flash into his mind. Honestly it wasn’t many memories. The only thing he really remembered was battling at the power plant that day.Â
“Darkest Day.... Raihan....” He repeated those words almost as if he didn’t believe it had happened. Placing a hand to his head he suddenly felt an increase of grief.
Oh right. He remembered the funeral a bit now. It had been a year already? Hadn’t it all just happened last month? Had he really been living with Wyndon that long with Leon.
Looking up at Leon, Hop gave him a mixed face. Mixed with pain and confusion, almost as if he was trying to piece it all together. “It really happened.... didn’t it?” He finally spoke, covering his face with his hands. He... maybe this was why he had been feeling depressed since that day? He really didn’t want to feel sad.... He didn’t want to cry.... He didn’t want to cry in front of his brother.
He didn’t want to look weak....
