Noelle Holiday (Weird Route CH. 5)

Noelle stands on the shore of the lake and looks at the endless horizon behind which the sun slowly hides... or are her eyes closed?

She's suspiciously calm. The arms hang by the sides without moving. The wind blows her long blonde hair, giving her a new look...

(Kris...)

(I know.)

(I know you wanted to deny it.)

(I did too, at first.)

(But... Eventually...)

(...)

Everything we went through together was terrible for me... at first.

Until I realized that you were right about everything.

You've changed. I've changed. With your help, we got out of the prison of our roles...

All I want now is to leave this place, to reach a place where we've never been!

Noelle, with half-crazed, sparkling eyes of excitement, took you firmly by the hands, afraid that you might let go of hers.

Do you remember how, as children, we dreamed of crossing this lake and finding out what lies beyond the horizon, what is on the other side of it?

... What prevents us from doing this when nothing is impossible for us anymore?

Kris... Just tell me what I want to hear right now.
