Right now, Kaori's eyes were so wide that they practically looked like saucers, and she had the expression of someone who had just been told something so ridiculous that her brain was struggling to process what she had just heard.
"B-But... how can that be?" she asked, her voice trembling as she stared at me. "A-Are you really... Tsubasa?"
She looked me up and down several times, almost as if she were desperately searching for something familiar about me that could confirm what I had just told her.
I couldn't really blame her for being confused.
From her perspective, I probably looked completely different from the person she remembered.
"I am Leon in this world now," I told her calmly. "The Tsubasa that you knew died in that world."
The moment I said those words, she sucked in another deep breath.
It seemed like every revelation I gave her made her heart jump all over again.
