“ Because you're not okay. I know a lier when I see one.”
“ Because you're not okay. I know a lier when I see one.”
"I mean…you are one…but…I-I'm not…lying…?" Rantaro told him, but he had no idea at that point. "Maybe…you…you've…noticed things…that…I haven't…? Just…if so…what…?"
“ just.. Come here.”
"O-okay…?" Rantaro was a bit confused, but he got up and went over to Kokichi, though it was a bit difficult since he remained a bit unsteady.
Kokichi held rantaro and rubbed his back gently
Rantaro didn't mind the embrace, allowing Kokichi to hold him close. He still didn't understand why the other was so worried about him, but he found what the other was doing to be calming to an extent.
“ Better?” he asked softly
"A bit…" Rantaro sighed softly. "I…I dunno…what's wrong…with me…"
“you're stressing over nothing..”
"Nothing…? Ko-Kokichi…Kaito…might die…! I-is that…nothing…to you…?!" Rantaro asked with tears forming in his eyes. "You…you do care…r-right…?"
“ yes I care! But right now I'm worried about you as your health!”
"But…why…?" Rantaro asked. "I-I'm okay…a-all things considered…"
“ I don't think you are..”
"Wh-why's that…?" Rantaro asked him. "I…I should…be fine…"
“ your not, and it's okay to not be okay..
"I…I know that…but…aside from…the effects from…the anxiety attack…I-I'm okay…" Rantaro argued. "R-really…"
“ okay taro..”
Rantaro sighed softly. "Except…I dunno anymore… I-I don't…even know…if I'm okay…"
“ I'm not sure either but in going to help you through it”
"I…I appreciate it…" Rantaro said softly. "I…I dunno…wh-why…but…I-I, um, kinda…feel like I might…cry…"
“ then cry taro..”
Rantaro nodded and allowed himself to cry. "I-I thought…that I was fine… I-I'm just…really scared…again… I…I hate it…"
“ I know, I know. Let it out taro.. “
Rantaro let himself cry for a while. He stopped saying anything to Kokichi in the process, but he was generally upset. He didn't want to say much, but he wanted reassurance and comfort from Kokichi before he broke down again.
Kokichi was there to give him everything he needed
