Kaori's POV
"Come on Vi! Come to mommy!" I smiled at my one year old daughter as she held Kousei's fingers.
He let go reluctantly and she stumbled forwards into my arms.
"Great job Vi!" I said and kissed her forehead
"Mama." She said
"Kousei!" I said
"What?" He asked
"She said mama."
And Kousei smiled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Violet was a perfect mixture of me and Kousei.
With sandy blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes that reminded me of Kousei.
I knew they would stay that beautiful blue.
Having Violet changed my life.
She made me believe in miracles.
Take risks and dare to dream.
Violet loved flowers.
We took her to fields often.
Fields of the very flower she was named after.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Kousei and I would never have other children.
Violet was our only.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
About 10 years after Violet was born I was diagnosed with Stage 1 leukemia.
I spent most of my days in bed writing letters.
Letters for everyone of Violet's birthdays I was going to miss.
My beautiful baby girl was going to grow up motherless.
