"What do you mean, Kaz- " Ai started speaking in a loud tone, but was immediately stopped by Sensei. She looked at me and signalled to be very careful with my words.
After her entire talk about not being careless about one's words, my bringing action of up this topic out of nowhere in front of Ai would sound stupid. I know, it sounds stupid to me too, but Ai needs to know what is going on in my head, or her worries will grow way more. Especially if another episode like last time happens. I looked at Ai, and she had a dissatisfied look on her face. She wanted to tell me that it is not true, shake me to get myself in the right mind, and do everything in her power to convince me that she can take care of herself. I know you want that Ai, but things are not as simple anymore.
