Being that they were in a dark alleyway, Mao wasn't much afraid that any human would come around and see them. Even if a human did happen to pass by, it was somewhat dark in the alley, so they wouldn't be able to be entirely seen. Her soft black ears and tail finally poke out, as her eyes fade to their natural hue of bright yellow. They could be seen glowing in the shadows that covered her face. "A monster?...Why would I call you a monster?...If I did, I would might as well call myself one too....Although we are two different species, we are much the same as well....still..." Her ears slightly droop in sadness as she stares at the ground, realizing that he wouldn't take the time to look at her anymore...."I don't know if I can trust inus after what they have done to me...But I don't hate you...In fact, I like you quite a lot..."

Mao states all of this with hesitation, unknowing if she should hold back some of her words or not. She usually planned what to say before saying it, but it felt as if all of her emotions were spilling from her lips without her control. The fact that he refused to look at her somewhat hurt her. The compliments he had given her...Those syrupy words which captured her heart. Were they all just meant for a human? Did they mean nothing now that he knew she was a neko?.....Her body trembles with sadness. "I could leave you...if you want..." Mao finally says after a few moments of silence. She wasn't sure what else to say to the inu, and wasn't sure if she was welcome there any longer...
