He nods, his face showing his joy and pride in Tirou. He opens a portal to her now clean living room, letting Tirou go in first.

He lets his hair fall over his eyes, not wanting anybody to see his face.

Holly stands as a portal opens and Tirou steps through, she runs to him, hugging him as they fall down. Brook laughs at this as James comes through and helps them up. "You good, bro?" He asks, sitting down next to Brook.

He stiffens in her grip, his heart racing.

She silently steps back, brushing a strand of hair behind her ear. "Sorry..." She apologizes for making him fall. "Oh! Thank you for coming back... You had every reason not to, yet you still did. I won't ask you why, I just want to say Thank you for that. I also wanted to apologize for my... disturbing heartless behavior, I-I scared myself, and I scared you, I scared my friend, I can't imagine what must be going through your head now, or what had gone through your head then. But whatever it is, I hope it's better than before because... I'd never be mean to a friend, not ever." She says, a determined expression crossing her perfect features.

He doesnt reply, but theres a very slight hint of a smile.

She steps back, bowing her head. "Brother, thank you for bringing him." She says over her shoulder. He shrugs. She hands him an envelope, sealed. (It's filled with her drawings and pictures, all of them.)

He continues to be silent.

"So, do you forgive me? Or must I assume I am an enemy?" She whispers, backing away, even more, when she says enemy, she winces, not so subtly.

He hesitates for a long moment. ,, I.. I forgive you.. ,, His voice is little more than a whisper.
