5 years later…
~Yuuki’s POV~
I am wandering around the New York City. Ah! So boring.
“Yuuki?” a voice called me.
I turn around, “Hana?” I recognized her.
“Ah! It’s really you! Ah!” she shouted and run towards me. I run towards her too. We hug each other.
“Hana, it’s been 6 years since our last meet,” I said.
“Yuuki, where do you stay?” she asked me.
“At DeKalb. I study there. You?” I asked her back.
“With my Kaa-chan, I study at Yale,” she said.
“Wow, Yale? You’re as great as always. As expected from Mimura Hana,” I praised her. She just smiles.
“So, where you go after our graduation?” she asked.
“I take a year to rest. You?” I said.
“I follow my Kaa-chan to Korea. I stayed there for 2 years. I came here 4 years ago,” she said.
“Let’s go to that coffee house. We can chat longer and more comfortable,” she said while pointing to a coffee house.
~Satoshi’s POV~
“Riida, I want to go to your house,” Aiba said.
“Nande?” I asked him.
“I want to play with Yoshi and Satsuki,” Aiba said.
“They don’t wanna play with you,” Nino said.
“I don’t care. Riida, I wanna go,” Aiba said.
“Aiba-chan, I’ll take you there. Ohno-kun, I’ll bring you home,” Sho said.
“Arigatou,” Aiba and I said in unison.
~Yuuki’s POV~
Today is my last day of my final exam of my final semester. Tomorrow, I’ll back to Japan. Along these 5 years, I never meet him. Even though I went to Japan every semester to meet my kids. He never appeared even once.
“Yuuki…,” a voice called my name. I turn back. It’s Hannah Quinlivan.
“Hannah, how’s exam?” I asked her.
“Okay, pretty good, I guess,” she said. “So, you’re going back? When?” she asked me.
“Tomorrow. I can’t wait to see my family,” I said with a smile.
“I’m going back to Australia first. Maybe next month, I’ll go to Taiwan,” she said.
“Really? That’s great,” I said.
~Satoshi’s POV~
I see Yoshi and Satsuki playing with Sho and Aiba. They look so happy.
“Nii-chan,” Yuri sits beside me.
“Yuuki-chan will be back tomorrow,” she said. I know that, Yuri. I’m counting the day she comes back since she’s gone.
“I know that,” I told her.
“I’ll pick her up tomorrow,” Yuri told me. Of course you go. She doesn’t wants to see me for sure.
“Then, be careful tomorrow,” I said.
“Nii-chan! Could you stop all this nonsense?” she shouted and get up from her sit. Sho, Aiba, Yoshi and Satsuki are staring at us.
“Ah! Yoshi, Satsuki, let’s play at the garden,” Sho said and gives Satsuki the piggy ride.
“Why?” Aiba asked Sho.
He pushes Aiba and holds Yoshi’s hand. They go to the garden.
“Yuri, what’s wrong with you? Don’t frighten the kids,” I said.
“What’s wrong with me? Hah! It should be what’s wrong with you,” she said. “Nii-chan, stops all this thing. It’s over. You don’t need to sacrifice anymore,” she continued.
“Yuri, she hates me,” I said.
“Let her know about everything. Stop sacrificed. It doesn’t worth it,” Yuri said. I sigh.
~Yuuki’s POV~
I arrived at the airport. I wait for Yuri. Okaa-chan said she will come and picks me. I wonder if Satoshi comes too. What will I do?
“Yuuki-chan!” Yuri shouted my name. She waves her hand.
I wave my hand back and walk towards her. I hug her.
She’s coming alone. There’s no Satoshi. Somewhere in my heart, I feel disappointed.
~Satoshi’s POV~
Yuri is already go and picks her. I wonder how she’s doing.
I take the box of rings.
~Flashback~
“Ohno-san, this is the rings that you ordered,” the jeweler told me. She came and found me at my house.
“Eh?” I blurred.
“You ordered it 4 months ago. You didn’t remember?” she asked.
~End of Flashback~
Yes, I bought it. I got it a month after she went to New York. I bought it as our second anniversary present.
I open the box. There are two rings in it. One for me and the other for Yuuki. S & Y, it’s the letters that engraved on each of the rings.
~Yuuki’s POV~
“Where you wanna go, Yuuki-chan?” Yuri asked me.
“Just drop me to my parents’ house,” I said.
“You don’t wanna go back to your house?” Yuri asked me.
I just stay silent. Of course I want. But, I know Satoshi will never accept me there.
I reached my Okaa-san and Otou-san’s house.
“Arigatou, Yuri,” I said. And she smiles and off.
