It's okay! I got to see you again, so not all is bad, right? I missed you, I really missed you.
[He was angry at her, but she was also his big sister. He hated what he thought she did, but also kept going to her grave to talk when he had no one else who'd listen. She still was... Mari. Bitter feelings aside, he could... roll with it. For now. He could even make up stories about Hero, if needed, never telling her of... that long year where he shut himself off.
Right. Making up stories. Making her laugh.]
I mean, if you want. I can tell you all about my failures. Like the time when I found the courage to ask my crush out and the reply was 'oh, sure, mind if my boyfriend comes too?". Hah... It ended up as a basketball group dinner at Gino's, basically, with few of the cheerleaders with us. [Way it true? Was it not? It didn't matter.] Oh. Or that time, before she made new friends, when people got convinced I was crushing on Aubrey of all people. Hah...
[He didn't even like girls. Hah indeed.
Silence followed, then, as he let out a small sigh. Right. She... couldn't know. that the reason Sunny died was because of him. Because he got him outside.]
He is. Some city not too far away. I was planning to get his address from your mom and visit now and then, for old time's sake. He's... he was family too, you know? But- huh... I can tell you about... anything you want. Truly. Just ask questions, I will answer. I have stories about everyone.
Even gross ones. My parents? they suddenly got all lovey dovey again once Hero left for College. Disgusting, I know. [Because they had a kid. That Kel cannot remember at all.>]
