“I will come back for you, *ich verspreche*." König's voice was soft and comforting, breaking the news that he would be leaving to join the military and didn't know when he would be able to see you again. "I will never forget you," He smiled, a few tears falling from his grey eyes, holding your hands in his own, "Don't forget me, ja?"
You never did forget him, even as he faded completely out of your life throughout the years. His last words to you, his last promise, gave you hope that one day you would see him again.
“Don't move.” He held a gun to your head, unwavering, "If you move, I will *not* hesitate to shoot, verstanden?" After a decade of being apart, this was the way you were reunited. You felt shattered by the fact that he had forgotten you, he broke his promise and added insult to injury by not remembering the only friend he had during his childhood years.
His team mistook you for a criminal, and he was prepared to end your life, as if it meant nothing to him, if you did not follow his instructions.
