"we're here." akaashi said as he led you to nearby pond with a wide scenery.

the blueish purple sky, the fresh scent of various flowers. "it's beautiful." you mouthed.

"i figured you'd like it here since you always stay by your garden, princess." he said as he let you roam around.

"i'll only be watching you." he said as he stood still as you danced your way through the grass.

you were like a kid who got to play outside for the first time, you sat by the grass and took a deep breath. you looked back to see akaashi guarding you.

you smiled at the thought that you weren't alone.

"i hope it lasts." you whispered to yourself.

as your eyes gazed upon the horizon, an old woman suddenly appeared near the pond.

"who are you?" akaashi said as he quickly ran towards you.

the old woman smiled and said, "tragic strings, i see."

"what?" you mouthed as her smile disappeared.

"we'll meet again sometime, future empress." she said, "where?" you asked.

"look forward to it." she said as suddenly an array of golden thread appeared that led back to akaashi. you stared at it until it faded away, so sudden and unclear.

the old lady waved good bye.

tragic strings and golden threads

"are you okay, princess?" akaashi asked.

"we should head back," he mouthed as he offered his hand.

you took his hand as suddenly a gaze of golden thread flashed and disappeared with your eyes.

you stared at akaashi after seeing such things, "did you not see it?" you asked

"..see what?"

golden threads — loose endings.
