Prologue

Yuya stared at the sky in increasing suspicion, searching for at least one single dark cloud on the horizon. But there wasn't any sign of an omen; all she gazed at was endless azure. Inwardly sighing, her gaze dropped back down to the white silk of her kimono. Tracing her finger along the intricate design, she delved into deep thought.

To onlookers her resolve may have appeared calm, but the exterior barely concealed the unrelenting battle within, tearing her mind in two.

It had been two years now, she could remember it as if it was yesterday. Her heart ached to remember, but there it was, clear as crystal. Clinging on like a limpet to a boulder. It had been the day when she had…

"YUYA-SAN!"

The loud yell in Yuya's ear made her break from her daydreaming. Her head snapped up to face the girl who had been trying to get her attention for over several minutes.

"Gomen Ai-chan! I don't think I heard you." Yuya spluttered.

The girl stood in front of her looking half bewildered and half annoyed, her dark brown eyes glaring skeptically.

"I don't know what's gotten in to you this past week, you're meant to be happy, but instead you look like you've just broken your mother in-laws favourite vase!" Ai fumed.

Yuya, her face returned downcast to gaze at her kimono once more, let out a half-hearted smile, "Don't worry, it's just nerves, I'm fine."

Ai narrowed her eyes further, till they were only slits. For a brief moment she remained like that, scrutinizing Yuya, until turning her face away, she exhaled slowly. The face that turned back to face Yuya held much softer, gentler expression.

"Come on Yuya-san, you can't sit here all day. He's waiting for you." Ai coaxed encouragingly.

Yuya gaze returned to the heavens for a moment and she closed her eyes slowly. When her eyes finally opened again they were clearer then they had been in a long while.

"Yes, he's waiting" she whispered.
