Waaah, I don't like this curse! It makes people say things they don't mean to! And sometimes lying isn't bad when you do it for other people so that they don't get hurt or they don't worry about you when they have so many things worrying them already and you're supposed to be happy all the time like you usually are so that we can pretend everything

Hunny-senpai!

[wantscakie]

Kao-chan, I'm sorry!

[ourdenouement]

Why are you sorry, Hunny-senpai~?

[wantscakie]

Because I didn't want all of you to know that...

[innocentxcharm]

Did something bad happen?

[wantscakie]

No...I just didn't want to let my friends know I only pretend to be happy a lot of the time.

Uwaaah, I did it again!

[innocentxcharm]

That's not good! You gotta be real happy! Pretend happy's not fun at all.

[wantscakie]

I know it's not...but it's hard when Takashi left again, and Tama-chan and Kyou-chan aren't here! At least if I'm pretend happy it might cheer up Haru-chan and Hika-chan and Kao-chan!

[ourculminant]

They'll come back! Eventually. I think.

[wantscakie]

I know they'll try to! But I hope it doesn't take months and months again.

[guardianhime]

Just because they aren't here with you right now, doesn't change that they're family...

[wantscakie]

I know! They still are!

But everyone is happier and things are just right when we're all together!

[princess_crow]

I want to go home too.

[wantscakie]

...Princess Rue. Are you okay?

[princess_crow]

I am as usual, but you should be honest with your feelings.

[wantscakie]

Princess Rue is probably right but I think it does help sometimes not to make a fuss and worry people.
