some part of him hoped you would make an appearance at the windblume festival, but there was no sign of your presence. it had been centuries since you left.
venti delicately held a cecilia in his hand and smiled gently as the stem rested between his fingers. after a brief moment, he held out the flower and let go, using the wind to carry it away. a bitter smile replaced what was once a peaceful expression, and a small breath escaped his lips.
"...and what are you doing up here?" he asked, staring up at the evening sunset.
"...i saw you," lumine said, following his line of sight into the sky. "is something wrong?"
"perceptive, are we?" he chuckled. "i'm simply reminiscing! nothing to worry about."
she sighed, "that sounds exactly like something i should worry about."
"ah, always seeing right through me, hm?"
"i'm pretty good at it," she smiled. "but seriously, what's bothering you?"
"...just someone who's no longer here anymore."

venti sighed, "oh, how you wound me..."
"leave."
