Those words were enough to keep Nike from moving especially when it was spoken almost in a defeating sort of tone. No, not just defeating, there was more to it. It didn't sound sad. Maybe uncertain? A little distant, yet it felt like a very heavy thing.
It sounded vulnerable.
Why would he feel so vulnerable? What did this scar symbolize to him? Nike will look at him with a thoughtful expression, trying to piece this mystery together because she feels her next words will be very important. Hold a great deal of weight to him. Her gaze will soften as she leans forward and gently touches the left side of his forehead, touching the scar in a very delicate manner with a great deal of respect.
Allen Walker, a skittish boy with good morals, protective, stubborn, experienced, and...with a beautiful bittersweet smile that doesn't reach his eyes. An individual is willing to adapt to any situation and have faith in others.
All of it describes someone with a strong sympathetic heart. And yet...]
What are you saying? Why are you speaking like this...? [Her thumb will lightly touch the edges of the scar.] I haven't known you for a long time, but this brief time we've spent together is enough. The faces I've seen in this short amount of time... [She never thought she would ever say this, but...] ...the face of the exorcist, Allen Walker.
The face of an individual who is emotionally more mature for his age than he lets on, and most importantly, the polite, skittish but experienced man with the smile that doesn't quite reach his eyes...with a scar that I can't imagine him without...who is always pushing or carrying others to be at their best...
Isn't it all part of the Allen Walker I am looking at right now?
[A pause, looking up at him with a curious tilt of her head.]
