I carry the bags inside Yui's house. She enters the house and smiles immediately. I'll miss her bright glow.

I walk slowly towards her and tug at her arm, "Let's sit over there."

We're just have a really big space between us when that happens. Even so, I'll be waiting for that gap to close. I'll always be waiting for you, Kai."

Her tears start to fall. I hug her and gently pat her head.
