It could only be Ginichi. He knew this. She knew he knew. Only Ginichi was welcome to touch her. Only Ginichi was allowed to place his fingers upon her body-- only him. If anyone else were to make such contact, Chika was certain (so certain) that she could not take it.

More abuse-- more violations-- more pain. These things came with all the touching she’d been exposed to in her life. If not for Ginichi-san, she would not know love or compassion or happiness. She would not know the warmth of a smile, or the pure heat of affection. He who opened these doors was the only one allowed to fully step inside her world.

She would begin to look up to Neko-san. She would dote on Yuuka. She would brush Teika’s fur, rub scuffs out of Hyouka’s armor, and wash Gekka’s tank. She would talk with Ouka. But she would know her boundaries. Know them and follow them accordingly. But not with Ginichi-san.

The only one completely open to come into her-- to do with her what he pleased-- did not want her. This thought brought about desolate feelings, and so she fervently shut them out, taking time that could have been wasted on the past, and making use of the present.

She wanted no one else. And it was not fair that Ginichi-san didn’t see. Chika hated the feeling… that terrible irking feeling that pinched at her heart, whispering coldly that Ginichi-san would never love her, her chances were gone, and it was her fault, her fault, because she didn’t try hard enough… and so, she tried harder.

Chika had found family with Ginichi-san. He had made a home for her. He had watched over her and protected her and held her hand, and yet, he did not love her.

Midarezaki Chika didn’t want to remain the island that the concealed Himemiya Senko was fated to be. She wondered… she wondered if Ginichi-san knew that he could still fulfill his promise to her.
