“Meet me tomorrow at 6pm by the sakura tree. I have a surprise for you”
“Really? What is it? Can’t you give it me now? At least give me a clue”
“Calm down. You’ll find out tomorrow. You’ll just have to wait till then”
“Hmmph…If this turns out to be one of your pranks, I’ll never speak to you again”
They lived in the same neighborhood and have been friends since they were six
They were inseparable; especially when it came to playing tricks
They were very close friends; they were content with what they had
That changed today; the falling sakura marked a day both happy and sad
“Ok, I’m here. What the surprise? Don’t keep me waiting“
“Close your eyes first, hold out your hands and no peeking”
“Here it is. I hope with this you’ll realize how much you mean to me”
“<sob> I’ll treasure this forever. <sob> I’ll wear it always so everyone will see”
He gave her an orb-shaped pendant whose color was deep purple (her favorite by the way)
So that he could buy it, for two weeks straight he walked to school every single day
He found it in a small antique shop located in a little known street corner.
The moment he saw it, he knew without a doubt that it was perfect for her.
“There’s more to it. You’ll love it. Try holding it up to the light”
“Oh my, is it really moving? It looks like it’s in flight”
“Thank you so much. <sob> I don’t think I deserve such a perfect present”
“Does love ever need a reason? Cause I’m fueled by it at this very moment”
When the pendant was held to the light a butterfly can be seen floating inside
She loved butterflies because they were free to soar and glide
He decided he would tell her his feelings today whether or not she felt the same
His gift would show that he was serious; that she was his heart’s aim
“I love you too. I want to be by your side now and forever”
“Let’s make a promise then to always be there for each other”
“We’ll tell all our friends the good news tomorrow. I know they’ll all be happy and excited”
“Till tomorrow then. I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep. My emotions still haven’t subsided”
When she got home her parents were at the door with all their things packed
Her dad told her they had to move because of his job and they were never coming back
She wanted to talk to him before they left but their ride to the airport was already there
He would reach her home the next morning and wonder why it was bare
“You promised we’d always be together. Kaori, where in the world are you”
“Oh Yusuke, I wish you knew that I didn’t want to go and there was nothing I could do”
He was crying as he slowly walked home thinking thoughts that would torture his soul
She was crying as her plane slowly took off wishing they’d meet again and be whole
“Really? What is it? Can’t you give it me now? At least give me a clue”
“Calm down. You’ll find out tomorrow. You’ll just have to wait till then”
“Hmmph…If this turns out to be one of your pranks, I’ll never speak to you again”
