One year mark, literally.

Kigen's vice was smoking and Aria was his reason for stopping. When they pass a year together, after so many months of the beginning of the abusive relationship to come, Aria decided she was done being the substitute of his addiction. She was tired of being the flame to his burning terror, even if the make up's seemed that of bliss. She was done... He wasn't him, she wasn't her, & they weren't them.
