If it's that big a problem, I can disappear. It's not that hard.
[It is that hard, though. Izaya's not going to let him hide out with him now, not when he's been found once. It's too big a risk, and getting him his medicine is already a bigger favor than Kida expected to get. He can't ask for more than that.
Still, it's better than making an enemy of Mikado. The thought bothers him, deeply, even though it's been so long -- at this point, they ought to be strangers. It shouldn't matter if this is someone he knows. But he doesn't want to fight him...
He'll have to in the end though, won't he? If he wants to use Dollars to reclaim Lucky Hearts. What a messed-up turn of events. He starts to rub at his cheek as he thinks, then stops himself -- he can't afford to ruin the makeup that makes his skin look clear an unmarked. That would identify him as fast as an ID card.]
