Rio kept still, not even moving a single muscle as she purely focused on what Kenta was saying. It initially shocked her at how open he seemed to of become, how despite all of this time, he is able to let out his emotions so easily... Her eye stayed wide as he spoke before becoming half-lidded as more tears started the flow down her cheek, her eye-patch becoming soaked with blood from her crystal eye's tears, however it wasn't noticeable due to the fact that she wore a red velvet eye-patch at the moment. Her lips parted while she took shallow breaths... As Kenta pulled away, Rio looked at him... finally able to see Kenta's face.... Her eye squinted a little as more tears threatened to spill, it was almost like every word he spoke touched her heart... She continued to look at Kenta, noticing the fake smile and his tears but was currently speechless due to the knot in her throat.... An extremely short silence passed after Kenta had finished talking.... Rio just couldn't hold back anymore, she couldn't fight her tears back any longer... She ran forward, back into Kenta's arms but this time hugging him tightly, burying her face in his chest for a moment before leaning back to look up into his eyes with her tear-stained face. She leaned into him again, resting the right side of her head against his chest, her voice softening. At this point, Rio started to sob into Kenta's shirt, overwhelmed with emotion due to her already weakened emotional state.... After a moment of just sobbing, Rio eventually calmed down however she never let go of Kenta.... Rio hugged him a little tighter before taking a deep breath and letting him go, wiping her left eye.

"I don't care about my [I]fucking[/I] shirt, alright? Like you said, I'm just happy I get to see you again....So [I]happy[/I] that you forgive me," Kenta said as he rubbed one his left arm giving her a real smile, happy that she had forgiven him, one thing he had been thinking about for two months and more. But that dropped as he rubbed the back of his head looking away once again. "....But I have bad news....I um...I won't be returning to the Gotei 13," Kenta said before looking back at her, "That's not to say I won't visit, because I will! I mean, I hope to talk to you more...And my sister wants to join the Gotei 13, I-I'll tell you about her later....Plus I'm working on something with Hikari, and I still need to meet his sister! And Kaizo, I think I should properly meet him, last time I was sorta of a jerk wasn't I? And I also want to see Captain Kuchiki, s-so there's still some stuff I need to do there but....I just won't feel comfortable going back...Because of some things I did."
