Ken paced back and forth while Anna watched from her seat on the bed. "I'm not… I don't want…"

"Ken."

"No! I'm worried about you."

"Is it really that difficult?"

"Of course it is! I don't want you left defenseless and alone. But also I don't want to deny you a chance to return to a normal life."

"It's up to you."

"How can you say that? It's your life!"

"Is it?"

Ken bent down on a knee and took her hands in his, they were small and soft. "I want you to have your old life back Anna. Even if it means I won't be around to protect you."

She stared at him, lost in a daydream.
