Continuing there conversation. The prince happily watching her as she wears the flower hairpin proudly as she gently touches it, the prince remembers he has yet to know the name of this girl. "Many sorrys, for yet i have to ask a name what yours could be." The young prince questions in an inscrutable manner wearing a gleeful smile, the girl caught of guard by the sudden question now averts her eyes back to her nervous self again, her smile vanishes and she timidly looks away while she takes her hand off the hairpin. "M-my name is sakura." The girl plays with her dress sleeve nervously. "Sakura pretty is the name, yes matches one as you." The young prince delighted to finally know her name cant help but smile cheerfully. "M-may i know your name.. Your highness." Sakura manages to bring herself to ask embarrassingly. "Rude been i to ask for name and not give of my own, sorry i am much as yes the giving name of my being is ka-." Before the young prince can finish his introduction, he gets interrupted by a loud sound from a distance.
Suddenly kaza comes running towards the young prince from down the pathway that separates the flowers. "Ka chan i finally found you! I was lonesome without you." kaza overly excited shouts out as he makes haste and once again embraces the young prince without hesitation, he has an overjoyed smile on his face like always, the prince spots kaza running from behind sakura towards him and braces for impact, sakura looks back to see what the commotion is and sees a strange boy running right past her straight to the prince, unable to react from the sudden appearance of another person she silently stays quiet not knowing what she should do now, the prince notices that she is uncomfortable. "Sorry i be, a friend he is." The young prince explains, kaza initially confused at first not knowing who he was talking to having been completely oblivious to everything other than the prince, he looks around and sees a girl standing in front of them. "Who is this girl ka chan? Hello i am ka chan's friend who might you be?" Kaza now acknowledging her presence, openly ask with a friendly smile as he now stops embracing the prince and instead put an arm around his neck. "I-i.. My name is sakura" Sakura takes a quick look at them stunned at how improper the boy is acting towards the prince, bashfully tells him unable to and quickly looks away from them.
The prince smiles nervously. "Kaza kun here, a friend treasure the most i have, he may come by odd and many energy but a friend as him, no such thought of trading would do as for name of mine, yes kaza kun called me he has though not given ka chan you can as well." The prince urges her on in merry. "K-ka.. Im sorry.. I cant do such a thing your highness.. its improper to call you such." Sakura stumbles on her words as she hesitates to utter such words and act in an indecent way towards him.
"You dont have to worry about ranks, ka chan's not like that, he doesn't view peoples solely on your positions." Kaza reassures her as he looks over to the prince with great admiration. "You can call him ka chan and you can call me kaza kun as well! So we will call you sakura chan, were friends now after all aren't we!?" Kaza high spirited gives her a carefree smile as he turns his attention to her now.
Sakura who had been avoiding looking at them hears this and stops playing with her dress sleeve. "W-we.. Are friends?" Sakura looks at the pair apprehensive to know the answer. "You say the thought of mine it was alone, we were not to be already?" The young prince extends his hand out towards her in a friendly gesture to accept it, sakura stands there bewildered by how she should act she looks at her hand hesitant to move and takes another look at the two boys readily waiting for her, as though not her own doing she slowly lifts her hand up and accepts the offer, kaza looks at ka chan with a pleased smile, the warmth of the prince hand feels comforting as though shes free from all the doubt she had. "T-thank you.. For being my friend kaza kun, your h.. Ka chan." Sakura shows an overjoyed smile and feels a lukewarm liquid running down her cheek, she feels this and touches her cheek to feel tears of joy. "W-why am i crying?" Sakura daze by this wipes the tears away with her dress sleeve, sakura being within range now kaza takes this opportunity and puts his arm around both ka chan and sakura with an excited smile the prince looks at them both gratified by this chance encounter, as the wind slightly picks up and carrys the flower pedals into the distant blue sky another lovely day presents itself.
