Chapter 11 - Volume 1 Chapter 11: Origins

As Mina composed herself by taking deep breath & breath out

Mina:...Aaron.

Aaron: Yes?

Mina: Don't you... want to...you know, join that company?

Aaron: ....

Aaron: I can't.

Mina: Why...?

Aaron: Because I had a job in here. I'm fine where I am.

Mina: But don't you think that you wasted your potential?

Aaron: .....

Aaron: I just... thought that....I had a food & home in here and I should be grateful for it.

Mina: No, you're not.

Aaron:...Huh?

Mina: I know you're lying, Aaron. You're not the type to lying around.

Aaron:....

Aaron: (chuckle) shit. You got me.

Aaron: Ok...well, I was going to find my family.

Mina: Family?

Aaron: Yes. (Deep breath & sighed)

Aaron: When I was a kid, I had a pretty good life with my parents. My dad named Kendrick & my mom named Scarlet. They used to be the best protectors of this town, most honorable & kindest people around here, like those heroes on the fairy tale books.

Mina: ....

Mina: Are they dead?

Aaron: Nah, not dead. They're pretty much alive, don't you worried about it. And they left.

Mina: What...?

Aaron: Well, without a word or letter, they...just gone, like that.

Aaron: And that moment when I find them gone in home & outside, I cried like a bitch.

Aaron: Probably because I wasn't their best child they could ever had, possibly because I'm their major disappointment.

Mina: ...

Mina: Do you hate them?

Aaron: ....

Aaron: It's complicated.

Aaron: (let out of sigh) Look, I don't expect you to understand this. It's my problem, ok?

Mina: ....

Mina: No.

Aaron: Huh?

Mina: I actually lost my family too.

Aaron: .... Really?

Mina: Yes....and it was Erasers.The monsters who took my parent's life. When I was a kid.

Aaron: ....shit.

Aaron: I'm sorry.

Mina: ..No, it's... it's ok. I just... thought that I had no strength...and I hate my soft nature due to my shyness & timidness when I should be angry..... that's why....I want to join that company, no matter what.

Aaron: ....

Aaron looks at Mina for a moment, looks down out of guilty & ask her about:

Aaron: Do you... resent the Erasers?

Mina: I...I should....but...

Mina: My parents told me to always forgive...no matter how hard it is. So, I won't let the hate grew inside me.

Aaron: ... that's pretty badass from you.

Mina: (Blushed red but had a warm smile on her face) Thank you, Aaron.

Aaron: Say... it's getting late. Wanna go to my home for a while?

Mina: Eh...? Can I?

Aaron: Sure, why not?

Mina: (warmly chuckle & smile) Ok.

As they both took their hands each other and goes to Aaron's home, where Mina get closer to Aaron physically.
