A month has passed since then
It was early in the morning,Shirayuki had dressed up for work,maybe around 6am?
She walked out and went off to the castle.
When she got through the gates,she still had time so she wandered around the gardens.She seen Saki near the roses.
The redhead ran over to her kneeling down "Good morning!"
Saki kept looking at the Roses.
"..Yeah" she touched the rose's petals,
Shirayuki looked at the pretty flowers,but then looked a little unsettled.
"The flowers are dying,they're not getting enough sun.It's been quite a while since we've got some warmth"Indeed,it was getting cold,its November all the flowers are dying.
As Saki was stroking the rose petals she looked quite sad,well,she never did look happy really.
"Its shocking how quick something could go bad just from one little thing.." She said in her usual empty tone.Shirayuki wanted to say something that could cheer her up.
"But-..the same thing goes to things that go better than before right?"
She was panicking now,what should she say?her mind was blank.She crumpled up one of the petals once she heard Shirayuki say that.
"Something that wilts can't be resurrected into a prettier thing."Shirayuki was worried,
"Sorry Saki,I need to meet Zen right now..we'll speak later!"
She brushed the dust off her uniform and ran into the castle.
She knocked on Zen's door and went in "pardon my intrusion"
"Ah,Shirayuki" he smiled,
He stood up and stroked her hair,
"It feels like forever since we've seen each other."
She nodded smiling."Zen..do you think there's any way we can cheer Saki up? She always looks sad and depressed."
He thought for a minute
"A party ?"
