Obvious? You?! There's no way I would've had an inkling of a clue until today! This is still so surreal, like a dream, it ... mmm.
( There's a shift in his tone here while his voice softens. The blonde man dips his head down, almost in a gesture of shame, while balling one of his hands into a fist. )
... In all honesty, if there's anything I can reflect on, it's why I treated you the way I did in the past. I loved you, I didn't know how to love you, and when we arrived here ... I got scared.
( The argument they had about the intimate squares on Alhaitham's bingo card? Where Kaveh had a completely Normal Reaction to the prospect of Alhaitham getting intimate with someone else? Yeah. ) When I saw the tasks assigned to you by the Goddess ... the thought of you doing them with anyone near killed me inside. ( The argument definitely showed that. )
I realised after my fit of anger that I had some feelings I needed to unpack. I knew I loved you, I never imagined you'd feel the same, and the thought of you pursuing another ... ( His voice hitches - the thought floods him with a sadness so intense that it takes his breath away. )
