Courage to Fly

The Lady K

In Kanade's room, where Ena & Kanade were speaking in low voices, Mafuyu instantly felt at home.

"Fuyu!", Kanade called, jumping up from her pillow seat, & hugged Mafuyu.

Fuyu. The word makes me feel warm inside. The warmth I need. I wonder if I...

Mafuyu hugged Kanade back, drawing back embarrassed.

I think...I think I love her. Kanade's always been there for me. She always had been trying to save me with her music.

Mafuyu plopped down beside Ena. Ena. Her hair in its usual style, with a braid on the side. She wore a yellow sweater over her polo,  & a warm expression. She was drawing, & looked up at Mafuyu.

"Hey, Yuki", Ena said, smiling, "I heard about you being out in the rain?" 

Mafuyu remembered then, the pain her evil mother had delivered.

"Y-yeah...My mom threw out all my stuff." Mafuyu was looking down, her eyes filling with tears. The wounds marked in her heart made pain feel so real, so inescapable. Something she couldn't bear.

She collapsed into Ena's arms, & sobbed hard.

Ena looked to Kanade, & Kanade sat down towards Mafuyu. She pulled Mafuyu from Ena's arms, & held her close. 

The warmth surrounding Mafuyu made her feel as if she'd have a heart attack. 

Would I be able to have a heart-attack because of a good thing?

She knew, that if she did, it would be because of her.

Because of her Lady, K.
