Damien (Cain's friend)
I'm just worried about you
Cain
I'm not sick. Just go away
Damien (Cain's friend)

Damien (Cain's friend)
You have fallen head over heels huh...
Cain

Damien (Cain's friend)
Wait, you are not going to see her now right?

He drived fast and stopped not too far from Roswell's mansion
Cain
Finally, I got to see you again

Melody
*Running away while laughing happily*
Somehow her laughter warmed his heart
Edna (Maid)

Melody
It's okay! I'll be fine!
Melody suddenly stumbled and fell down
Cain almost ran to help Melody, but he held back
Cain
It's not the time yet... *clenched his hand*
Melody's maid came and helped Melody to stand
Edna (Maid)
Are you okay, Princess?

It's okay, just a small wound
Edna (Maid)
Oh no... we must treat it now
Edna (Maid)
Princess, let's go back
Melody
*sigh* Okay, let's go
