“...It sounds like you killed him.” You point out. You shouldn’t say that, you were the guy who shot him.
“I didn’t!!! I wouldn’t hurt a fly who couldn’t fight back!!!” Vera throws your words back at you. “And as for the reason as to why I didn’t talk to you… Well, I felt that if I brought you into this, you’d die. Plus, I was so anxious, it had been a whole week since we met, and I didn’t know how you would react, and it seemed like… you moved on… and I couldn’t bring myself to drag you back into this hell. I knew you’d hate me if you remembered somehow, we both are equals, and I didn’t give you the chance to choose. But I thought I was doing what was best for you...”
“And you call me dumb?” You frown. “I’m on your side, Vera. I’ll be marching through hell for those who I care about. Please, don’t forget it.”
“Y-You don’t hate me?!” Vera is in utter shock.
“Vera, I hugged you five minutes ago! Why would you think that I hate you?!” You can’t believe this.
“It’s not out of character for you to act irrationally.” Vera has a point.
“But to hate you for this? C’mon!” You almost got killed by a silly kitty and you forgave her! What Vera did is nothing in comparison.
“So this is how you feel…” Vera giggles.
“What do you mean?” You raise an eyebrow.
“This is how it feels to be so stupid for no reason…” Vera laughs.
“Hey. Don’t be mean.” You wiggle your finger at the mean rat.
“Right, right, right, I’m sorry, my Noodle Hero. I won’t do this again.” A big weight has been lifted from Vera’s shoulders.
“Good. Now, Vera, I have a request to make to you.” You clear your throat.
“W-We can be friends again if you like, and you know…” Vera is open to friendship with benefits.
“That’s a given. But I was thinking about another thing.” You get serious. “Vera, I need your help to break into prison.”
“Don’t tell me you want to take Mama Bodil out of jail?! YOU JUST HEARD ABOUT IT! YOU CAN’T BE THIS IMPULSIVE.” Vera is going to lose what’s left of her mind.
“No, she’s not the only one! I have another friend in there!” You smile.
“ANOTHER friend?! Wait, WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN DOING THIS ENTIRE TIME?!” Vera’s eyes open wide in horror.
