"Me.."

"Why do you come here? Just as you've read in the letter.. I want nothing to do with you.."




MEI POV

- I'm sorry Yuzu... please... just...




"Just now, Udagawa-san and I were discussing about our engagement. Don't interfere in my affairs any longer.."

"Mei, in the letter, you wrote that you wished for me to be happy with everyone, remember? Reading that made me really happy. But, if the Mei who I love so much can't also be happy I don't want that happiness..."

"... Not only you, Manager, Grandpa, Papa and Mama... everyone who supports us... I want to be happy with everyone."

"STOP BEING SO NAIVE! Be happy with everyone? All you ever do is speak nonsense! Something like that could never..."

"IT CAN!... I know that it may be difficult but I realized something. I spent the past half a year feeling troubled alone. But at times when you can't sort out your feelings all you have to do is talk with the people around you..."

"... Even if the possibility is low that we can be together.. I will never give up because I know that it is possible!"

"Enough already... it doesn't matter what you say my feelings won't change... just.. leave..."




MEI POV

- Yuzu... please... I can feel myself crumble into pieces already... feeling hopeless... I... want you... to... save me... (tears begin to fall in her face)





"Mei, right now... do you hate me?"

"I... really hate you..."

"... Do you know the amount of trouble I went through just to separate myself from you?..."

"... I had Himeko and the others give me more work at school, had myself placed in a different class..."

"... I even selfishly decided to rush my engagement... but no matter how much I pulled myself away from you... you just wouldn't disappear... instead, the days thinking of you only increased..."



Mei was crying and clenching her fist on her chest while telling Yuzu everything she went through... As soon as Yuzu noticed this, she come running towards Mei and grab Mei's necktie to check and reveal if Mei is wearing the necklace that has their ring on...

Upon seeing the ring Yuzu embraced Mei...

"All this time we were apart we felt the same pain. Almost like sisters."


"I can't bear being only your "sister"..."


Hearing this from Mei, Yuzu removed the necklace from Mei's neck and...




MEI POV

- Yuzu... I love you so much.. I want you.. not as a sister... I want more than that from you...

YUZU POV

- Mei... you really love me... I am so happy to hear this from you...



"I may be idealistic, I immediately act without thinking and I'm probably a crybaby older sister, but..."




MEI POV

- gasp... Yuzu.. I love you...

YUZU POV

- Mei... I love you...






"... I vow that I will love you more than anyone in the entire world. So... please marry me..."






MEI POV

- Yes! of course... Yes, Yuzu!

YUZU POV

- you are my world Mei.. I can't wait to spend my whole life with you my love...







"Do you think everyone will understand the happiness we wish for?... Yuzu..."

"As long as we're together, it'll be okay.."
