[ Most of the times-- no, almost all the time, Mondo will wish for people to stop crying, because he doesn't know what to do when they do. But for some reason, he doesn't want her to hold back her tears. His hand raises up to the back of her head, gently running it in a rhythmic manner.
He almost holds his breath when she asked for that, simply because he's horrible at it, but he'll try his goddamn best for Rei. ]
...Once upon a time, in some... uh, place, there's a princess with long, fluffy hair with flowers on it. She has big bright eyes, she smiles and laughs a lot. [ In reflex, he glances at her, even though with their position he can't really see anything. ] One day, while taking walks, she saw...
[ ...... ]
...a hugeass corn. [ He can't believe he's doing this, but he's doing it. ] The corn hurt his leg and couldn't move. The princess's real kind and 's got a huge heart, so tho' small, she tried her best to support him, leading him to her castle to treat him.
[ His voice grows softer, and softer as he goes. ]
Day by day, she knew no fatigue and kept carin' for the corn, 'til finally... the corn recovered. So he told the princess he'd leave, but come back at night. He returned to the castle at night then, with a giant box. When she opened it... a mirror's in it, reflecting her face. The corn said, "I wanted to share with you my happiness".
[ He pulls back slightly, just so he can look at Rei. It was a really shabby story that he came up with on the fly, but the point is ー he wants her to know how much she's saved his heart. And he wants to be there for her, too. ]

That's what you've been to me, Rei.
