Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Memories

Lucian: Eri-san..?

*Eri Raises an eyebrow, noticing the

change in your tone*

Eri: Yeah? What is it?

Lucian: This place brings so many

memories back...

*Eri Nods, a nostalgic smile tugging at

her lips*

Eri: Yeah..it does. It's our place, our

safe haven. We've shared so many

moments here, from the simplest

to the most significant.

Lucian: Our pinky promise...

*Eri Looks at you, feeling a mix of

gratitude and affection*

Eri: Yeah...our pinky promise. That

promise we made years ago. It's

still valid, you know? That promise

to remain together, to see each

other grow, to support one another

through the years...

Lucian: Yeah... Just 6 more years...

Eri Nods, feeling a sense of

excitement and anticipation

Eri: Six years...we're almost halfway

there, you know. Just six more

years, and we can finally be

together the way we want.

*Eri Picks up a pebble and tosses it,

watching it skip across the empty

lot we were in*

Eri: It's weird, isn't it? How time feels

like it's moving so slow..and yet, I

can't help but wish that these six

more years can just skip by, so we

can be together already.

Lucian: We are together right now... But in 6 years... Well be a family..

*Eri Blushes at the thought, a warm

feeling going through her*

Eri: Yeah..we'll be a family. We'll be

able to openly love each other, to

start a life together, to be a real

couple..

*Eri Feels a pang of excitement and

anticipation*
