"Ok fine, then just marry me."

"What? Are you mad? Listen I am very thankful to you but let me go now."

"This is how you talk to your savior? I saved your life so now your life is mine now. Well then I will be sending you the wedding dress and come to meet my in-laws later."

"Just shut your mouth I don't want to listen to your nonsense."

"And then I left,"

"So, Hina you are saying that you rejected a handsome boy in the middle of the street who was trying to be so romantic to you."

"Wait, who said he was handsome? Also how was it being romantic. He was so annoying I don't want to see him again but there is something I really want to ask. I can't forget his smell, his eyes and his cold hands. Are we similar? If we are, what is the cause of our coldness? Maybe he has the answer. Maybe he can tell me. But hope I never meet him again, not even after death. Maybe I can get my answers in Tokyo university. Yeah, I will try to find the answer there."

"Ok Hina, we will find it together ok. Never think you are alone, just look beside you I will be always there. Also don't leave any chance, if we happen to meet him again, we must ask him about it. It has been 16 years after that snow incident and now you are 19, we need to find a cure for you. Well then I have to leave now. Don't think much about it."

After a few days

*Phone rings

"Hollo Yuno."

"Hina chan~"

"what is it this time?"

"Hina~ I can't decide what to wear tomorrow."

"Oh! That's great, at least you remember tomorrow is our first day at Tokyo University. And are you the same person who was giving me such good advices a few days ago?"

"That was because I cannot see my love stressed. And how can I forget about tomorrow. There will be new people and people always remember the first impression so I want everything to be perfect."

"Ok I understand. Let me help you. Wear something in which you can be yourself, something that defines you and also it is not the dress people will look at. They will look at Yuno, so be the Yuno you are."

"Hmm, I know what to wear now. Thank you Hina. I will meet you tomorrow. I am hanging up now need to prepare. Bye bye."

"Bye, Yuno."

Yeah, it's tomorrow my search will begin.

*The next day

I am stating my journey today. My destination is the answer of my falling temperature. There is just one barrier between me and the beginning of my journey, the university gate. Lots of students came in here and graduated but only few got the answers of their questions.

"Hina chan are you ready."

"Yes, Yuno."

We started stepping towards the entrance gate. With each advancing steps my will was getting stronger and stronger, the air arund us pushed me towards my destination, the sun was shining bright encouraging me to go beyond the horizon. I have crossed the boundary now I am one step closer.

"Hina chan look a tall handsome boy in a hoodie. Awww...he is a masterpiece. Why do I feel like he is looking at us? Hina chan, Hina~ turn, look he is coming towards us."

The cold breeze with familiar scent surrounded me. I turned around to see who it is.

"Not you again." I was annoyed and surprised."

"Are you following me sweetheart?"

"No, it is you who is following me and who is your sweetheart?"

Yuno was surprised and confused. "Hina you never told me you know such a handsome boy. Oh! Wait, is that him?"

"Excuse me beautiful ladies."

And there he goes, Yato, with his sweet irritating words, and my sweet Yuno is flattered by his words.

"Hina I say yes."

"Say yes to what Yuno?"

"I say to him, he is a great guy he will keep you happy. I give approval for this wedding."

"Are you out of your mind Yuno?"

"He is out of my league but at least I could proudly say that he is my best friend's husband."

"So Hina." He said.

"What is it?"

"I just wanted to have a personal chat with you."

"What kind of personal chat we barely know each other."

"Yes, exactly that's why we need to talk my future wife."

"Hina chan~ don't tell me you already agreed and you are engaged."

"He is just joking."

"Don't make fun of my love. It hurts here in my meow meow." He said pointing towards his chest.

"Meow meow?"

"Yeah, meow meow, my kitten like soft heat."

"Enough of your drama. Are you really following me?"

"Just nature that is trying to create a love bond between us. And who knows what else the nature wanted. Maybe it's you who wanted me."
