33. their hearts blossomed

2 years later.

The cherry blossoms had already blossoming, not only marking another year without Juno's father, but another year with Takashi.

Takashi and Juno linked arms as they walked down the trees, his beautiful girl looked amazing today. He couldn't resist looking at her, and her mesmerized eyes as she looked around the trees. The pink surrounding them, today was the day for him to finally make her the promise.

They walked until they reached the middle, and they stared into the river that was in front of them.

"Do you remember when we were kids?" Takashi asked, "When we stood on different sides of the river?" Takashi's face was a bright pink.

"Yes, I remember we both looked away fast."

"I looked back, but you didn't anymore." Takashi giggled, "Ever since that day, I had looked for you in crowds more often. Which is why when I finally had the chance to get closer to you, I took it right away."

Juno smiled sheepishly, "Kashi' you're amazing."

"I'm not done." Takashi smiled, putting his finger up to her mouth, "I wished every day that you would look at me in the halls, or that you would ask Ayumu about me."

Juno's face turned a bright red.

"Truth is, I've been in love with you since we were kids, but I didn't know what it was until now. I refuse to believe that I didn't love you since then."

"Kashi' I love you, so much."

"I love you more." Takashi said, "Juno, marry me in the future. We can run away to the countryside, live in fields of flowers and have kids to raise there. We'd visit Ayumu ever once in a while. Or we could do whatever you want, as long as I'm by your side."

Juno smiled, tears forming, "I'd marry you right now if I could Kashi'!"

In that exact moment, a gush of wind hit them, causing the cherry blossom flowers fly around them. Everything was perfectly synced, their love tied their souls, their souls were tied since they were brought to this world.

Their hearts had finally blossomed.
