The skies were sunny and clear, much unlike what was pictured for a funeral. Kaede Fuyo stood next to her best friend and love of her life, Rin Tsuchimi. She felt so helpless. After Asa died in the accident, Rin had lost the will to live. He walked around like a zombie, and refused to eat or sleep. He even stopped going to work, and lost his apartment because he couldn't pay. He had to move back in with her and Primula just to have a place to live. Come to think of it, Kaede thought, if we hadn't all forced him to do it, he would probably be living on the street. Kaede glanced at Lysianthus and Nerine, who were standing together, holding hands. She smiled. Even though they were both still after Rin, and rivals, they were best friends above anything.
Rin stepped forward to place his roses on her casket. Roses were her favorite. He choked back a sob and walked away. Kaede rushed over to him and held him up for fear that he was going to collapse. He wrapped his arms around her and sagged to the ground, crying uncontrollably. Kaede held him up as much as possible, but she started to waver. Rin… you're heavy…. "I'm so sorry, Rin… It's going to be okay, I promise." Sia and Nerine ran up and aided her in supporting him. They looked at her sadly, but smiled. Primula followed after them silently. Everything was going to be all right.
