Aftermath

Detached, Disconnected

Aw shit. Mayura said to herself. I used up all my strength to keep myself from bawling my eyes out. I already shedded 50 million pounds of tears why is this happening again???? They still have the AUDACITY to not remember me after only ten years??? It's only been.... ten.... why..... did they not remember me??

Those lingering thoughts in her head overwhelms her, the fact that the people whose son she raised for so.... long.... forgets her completely.... just breaks her apart. The whole situation breaks her apart. The sacrifices these two made to save the world should be acknowledged by every single person..... But a part of her heart feels like these two are so underappreciated, underestimated.......

There she goes. Tears started to stream again as if she has been holding it back for thousands and thousands of years, longing to be free.

"It's m-me.... Mayura.... Your best friend- i- i- miss you two. I really... do..."

The twin stars just watched and absord all the information that was given. What else could they do? Cry? They only long for one person besides each other and that is Hikaru. No matter how sad the scene unfolding in front of them is, confusion and disconnection still overwhelms them immensely. The sky, the trees, that blanket that covered them,  nothing seemed to have any meaning except obviously, Hikaru...

"Do you really not remember me?" She giggles slightly, still in tears. "It's only been ten years...... I still remember how you used to p-punch Rokuro"

What am I saying? If they said they don't know me, then maybe I should just shut up and accept it. They'll remember me eventually, there's probably a lot going on their minds

But now what?

She sighed.. "I raised your son, he's such a brat, always insults me in the worst ways and he's just like you, Benio. Cold... Yet he's such a sweetheart. He misses you both. We all miss you! I know it's all really confusing but it'll g-get.... better. Trust me"

seconds after seconds pass. That very brief silence was probably the most awkward silence in her life. It felt like it lasted for ten minutes. Then suddenly...

"You raised our son?" Benio finally uses her voice on her, speaks to Mayura for the first time in ten years.

She can talk!?? Oh I'm gonna cry again please don't please don't cry. I thought she forgot how to talk why did I think that? Rokuro can talk just fine!

"Well yes actually!" "I raised him ever since you two left!" "He's such a brat but so playful you know there's one time where hes like-"

"Thank you" Mayura gets cut off by Benio, that talkative woman STILL hasn't changed a bit. A single word by Benio could throw people off her beautiful vocal color..

"Thank you so much for raising our son. Thank you so much Maira.... Maria(?)" " I'm sure we've known each other, even if we forget each other now we're sure we'll remember you again!" He smiles. You're right, that's Enmadou Rokuro. He always smiles even when the worlds ending i bet lol.

"It's Mayura...." She REALLY wanted to yell at him like old times, but how unsuitable of a moment it could possibly be than this very moment?

The family is still in each other's embrace. Rokuro with one arm embracing Benio, the other embracing little Hikaru. The three looked at each other and giggled a little. Idk why. Sometimes you just giggle.

The blanket covering all three of them. They seem so happy.

Mayura could only watch. Watch the three finally reunite amidst the chaos in the world and hardship that was imposed on them. If there was anyone who deserves this type of happiness more than anyone it's them. Definitely. Mayura smiled just looking at those three.
