Thank you. (idol!Kazuha x fem!reader)

Epilogue.

Several years passed since that day. 4NEMO disbanded when their contract ended, with each of the members living on with their respective lives. Although they still kept in touch, they seldom get the chance to hang out together anymore.

"Yo, Kazuha! You're early," the usual enthusiastic Venti waved to the young man.

"Took you long enough. Where's Xiao and Aether?"

Venti pointed to his back, indicating they're coming in no time.

"Ahhh sorry for making you wait," Aether tried to catch his breath.

"Yeah if only you didn't forget to bring the flowers," Xiao rolled his eyes.

Now that the four of them are together once more, off they went, to where y/n rested.

"Hey let's go shopping after this! I need new clothes," Venti hopped around childishly.

"Right, Lumine asked me to get something from the store too, let's go together," Aether took out his phone to check the shopping list his sister sent.

"I'll just tag along," Kazuha said before turning his head to Xiao. "What about you?"

Xiao looked annoyed on the outside. But to those who knew him better, they knew he wasn't really annoyed on the inside.

"Tch. Guess I'll tag along too huh."

"Great!" Venti went up front. "I'll take the lead! Come on, follow the leader!"

"How do you have so much energy?" Xiao squinted his eyes at Venti.

"Ehe."

"You still have that side of you too?!" Aether exclaimed.

-------

As soon as they stepped foot into the shoping centre, a little girl accidentally bumped into Kazuha and fell.

"Are you alr-" Kazuha was speechless when he saw the girl up close.

She looked like a smaller version of a certain young lady he met before.

"Oh dear, are you alright?" The little girl's mother came to pick her up. "I'm so sorry about that. I kept telling her not to leave my side but she wouldn't listen."

"No worries. I hope she didn't hurt herself," Kazuha gently smiled.

"Come on, let's go home," the mother held her daughter's hand and headed to the parking lot.

Kazuha wasn't the type to believe in reincarnations or rebirths, but this time, maybe just once, he'll believe it.

"Glad to see you're healthy now, y/n," Kazuha muttered to himself as he smiled unconsiously.

"Kazuha? What's wrong? Were you thinking about something?" Aether walked to his friend when he noticed he wasn't with them.

"You're smiling like an idiot, it's creepy," Xiao made a gesture like he had goosebumps.

"Then don't look," Kazuha shot an unamused face in a joking manner and caught up to the group.

"Earlier today you said I was taking too long, now you're the one taking too long," Venti pouted.

The four males walked further into the mall together, not as 4NEMO, but just four regular friends going for a casual hangout.
