Arthur's POV:
We've found a cave to hide in and take a break, it's a ways away from the main road but it's fine,
I stand near the entrance and look out at the rain, it's pouring down, good, it'll cover our tracks,
Looking over to my right, I see Kelly, she's not doing well, the news of her dad's death hit her hard, she's been crying for about two hours now, and I don't blame her either,
I sit down next to her and she leans over on my shoulder still sobbing, I know how she feels,
Kelly: why? *sobbing*
Arthur: I don't know, but he saved my life
Kelly: why did he have to die
Arthur: I don't know
Kelly: you were right, I should have forgiven him while I had the chance
Arthur: it'll be okay, he wanted you to know something
Kelly: what?
Arthur: he wanted me to tell you that he was sorry, those were his last words
Kelly: ...
She doesn't say anything but instead cries into me, I hug her tightly to try and comfort her, seeing her like this makes me upset, she may have not liked him and was never on the best terms with him, but in the end he was her father, and now, he's gone,
Kelly: Arthur...
Arthur: yes?
Kelly: promise me, promise me you won't die, my heart couldn't take it if you were to die
I know that this is a promise I can't keep, no matter how hard I try to keep it, but it's a promise I have to make, and it'll put her mind at ease too, so I will tell one of the few lies I will ever tell her,
Arthur: I promise, I'll stay alive
Kelly: thank you, and Arthur
Arthur: yes?
Kelly: you were right, I just regret I can't tell him in person but, I forgive him, I forgive my dad
Arthur: don't worry, I'm sure he knows
She gives me a smile and then falls asleep in my arms, I soon follow suit, and have a dream of me and Kelly together with a pup, but I know that's just a dream,
for me...
