Kio smiled again. "Well, if you ever need me for anything, let me know. I didn't have a lot, but those lollies mean something and I want my earrings." He touched the empty holes in his ears. "I did most of these myself. I know the nurse will take them away if she finds them. I intend for her not to," he added with a grin and a wink.
His eyes nearly became unfocused, but he fought. He fought the images of Sou-chan hurt, unconscious, utterly alone. "No. I don't know if he was ever here or not. But I want to find out, somehow. Have you ever heard of someone called Seimei?" It was worth a shot.
He understood. It hurt that Brainy couldn't trust him, like others did at home. He meant the child no harm, but wasn't that what all the nurses said? "If you don't trust me now, I understand. It's okay, Brainy." He sighed softly. "I'm in M75, if you ever need a partner for the night. I won't let Blondie hurt you. You have my word." He gave him another small smile. Kio wanted them to be friends. He needed someone to take care of.
