Eeep! No reason! Not getting in the way of two
[cdb]people's love at all, no sir!
Huh? But I'm alone here... Ah, I see. That.
Yeah, that! I was out walking when I saw them.
A man and a woman together in the woods...
getting...um, heated.
Well, neither of them seems to be dead yet.
They're on a secret date, you dummy! Not fighting!
Regardless, how does two lovers stealing a moment
[cdb]alone lead to you curled up here in the fetal position?
Because I'm hiding! I mean, if I messed up their date,
[cdb]they might try to get revenge on me!
Relax. To them, you're no different than a pebble on
[cdb]the side of the road.
Hey, I'm not a pebble! I mean, sure, sometimes I wish
I was just a rock, but...
Then just roll away quietly and you'll be fine.
Just roll away quietly... Hey, yeah!
Wait, no! They'd see me! Stop trying to get me killed!
We've made enough racket over here to raise the
[cdb]dead, and they haven't even noticed. I think it's safe
[cdb]to say they're off in their own little world.
Still, good for them, sharing words of love when
[cdb]either one could die tomorrow.
Wait, they could die tomorrow?!
They're both soldiers who serve on the front lines.
I doubt a rosy future awaits them.
No! That's not true!
Couples swearing their love and defying destiny
[cdb]are a staple of classic fiction!
Sure, but the fact it wouldn't happen in reality is what
[cdb]makes it such a good story, right?
W-wait, but there are tons of stories where two
[cdb]people who have sworn their love don't ever
[cdb]meet again!
Likely because that's something people are familiar
[cdb]with from their own lives.
OK, so which is it? I believe that those two can
[cdb]be happy together so...they can, right?
I hope that's the case, but reality is cruel.
Anyway, I've talked myself right to sleep.
Huh? Come on, don't sleep there!
Zzz...
Uh oh. Guess I'd better try that "turn into a pebble
[cdb]and roll away quietly" plan...
