My mind went blank.
All of it? Me and the world?
What is she talking about?
"Do you know what you're saying?" I asked, "Our stances are different. Since we're moving in different directions, and our goals conflict, we can only be enemies. The world, or me, since you choose the former, you can't choose the latter anymore.
"I understand you probably can't accept being my enemy because you like me, but greed will only lead to an undesired outcome. Wanting everything sometimes means you end up with nothing at all. This isn't just idle talk, you must understand what I'm trying to express, right? If you can't give up something, you can't move forward."
"I understand," Mazao said, "but to me, you are as important as the world. It was you who showed me a new future, you are my world.
"So, I must save everyone's world, and I must save you too."
"Save me?" I reflexively countered, "What is there to save about me?"
