The silence between us is heavy, charged with a hurt I can't bear. Zack stands before you, his normally perfect spikes of black hair ruffled from running a hand through them in frustration. The brilliant blue of his mako-lit eyes is wide, searching you's face for a shred of belief.

"I would never cheat on you," he says, the words leaving him in a raw, cracked whisper. He gestures urgently toward the world beyond the door. "I was with Aerith. She helped me get those flowers you wanted. The yellow ones. Please... just let me tell you."
