[Though still smiling gently, Conrad nods.] It did hurt. I think it still does.
But I spend a lot of time with Diva, and I understand her better than anyone else. It's not that she was lying to me at first, before I knew about the bad things she did. It's just that it's her nature not to tell me. She has two sides, in a way, and she doesn't always understand how those two sides effect other people.
I was mad at Road for a long time about who she is, and things she did. I still don't like the things she does. But since I came to know Diva, I understand Road a little more too. I don't think she lied to you, Akito, not exactly. I just think she has two sides, like Diva does.
[His smile goes a little apologetic,] That doesn't mean I think you're safe around her, of course, but I don't think you should feel bad for liking her before now.
