※Caution※ This world is a secondary creation AU I made myself, not the original Deltarune setting.

Asgore's words haven't left my head even after six years. But today, they seem particularly loud.

"Flowery, you knew, didn't you? That I was just playing along with you."

"...And, I think I finally understand how it feels to be on the receiving end of forced kindness."

I guess Asgore found my actions uncomfortable.

...

...Actually, I knew. I knew that nothing lasts forever. Even so, I kept making reckless plans for Asgore's happiness, and as a result, he left me.

That sense of loss, that guilt, won't leave me. Even though I know the regrets of 'if only I had done that' are piling up every day and eating away at me, I can't stop.

And so, that day, I wandered around in a near-dazed state.

When I came to, I was in a deserted alley I didn't recognize. It was raining, and I was soaked to the bone.

A single streetlight flickered as if it were about to go out. Since it was night, it felt like I wouldn't be able to see anything at all once that light vanished.

I had never been to this street before, so everything around me was unfamiliar, and I had no idea which way to go.

Just then, Guest holds an umbrella over Flowery.
