It has been a week since the incident at the window. Himura-san has relaxed around me considerably. I don't know that it is because he has simply accepted the fact that I refuse to leave or if it is because I did not shrink away from him that time. I have continued to watch from my place among the inn staff and my earlier thoughts of the other men seeing him as a weapon are not so far off. They will try now and then to interact but his demeanor is almost as off-putting as mine, but where my directness merely causes discomfort and confusion his is met with fear. It is as though they think he might harm them if they say the wrong thing. It makes me wonder if they are blind to think that he would, or perhaps it is a matter of rumor taking the place of reality. The only actual violence I have seen from him has been in self defense or toward whoever's name is inside the black envelopes delivered by Izuka-san.

But most people are blind. Most believe what they wish to believe and refuse to look further than the surface.

I Am Only One


Memories fade into the silence
Haunting me tonight
With hope's last breath I take this moment in
It will be the last
Then morning breaks
And sunlight takes the pain away

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For a life that never was
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one

I close my eyes and bleed this empty heart
Of all that longs to die
When faces lie and love will falter
I'm left with only time
And time will break
The dreams that take the pain away

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For a love I'll never have
And all the dreams I lay to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one

I'm on my own here
And no one's left to be the hero of
This fairy tale gone wrong
As night will fall
My heart will die alone

Ever after never came
And I'm still waiting
For my heart to beat again
And all the dreams I've laid to rest
Are ghosts that keep me
After all that I've become
I am only one
I am only one

I am only one
