Adrian didn't understand her first two words. There was nothing selfish about what he was doing. was there? He was trying to make up for his wrongs. He was trying to show her that he didn't mean for everything that happened to happen. And if the only way to do that was to sacrifice his life to her than that was what he intended to do. How whats that selfish? Adrian didn't realize that he could sometimes have a very one track mind. He saw himself as Hotaru's protector and he had always been willing to give his life for her. But at the time he hadn't thought that giving his life would save her, so instead he had killed their father and knocked her out. He hadn't intended to take her eye sight. So he had failed her. And now it was his job to make it up to her. And the only way he saw to do that was to do what he hadn't done before.
Adrian didn't understand her anger, until she explained herself. She doesn't think death is a good enough punishment, he realized, with fear. She was going to make him live with it. She was going to make him do the unimaginable. Live with the guilt that he had damaged his sister beyond repair. Adrian heard her more than saw her walk away. His mind was somewhere else. Surrounded by the guilt he now felt. It was like he was a little rabbit in his own mind and the guilt was a pack of hungry wolves, snarling and garnishing their teeth, waiting to tear him apart piece by little piece. Adrian couldn't move to follow her. And he wasn't sure he would even if he could have.
