"I'm sorry…"
"Please… don't leave…you can't leave…" "Yuna…I have to…I have to go…""But…you promised… it isn't fair…"
"Just whistle… I'll be waiting for your whistle."
"Yunie! Yunie wake up! Were going to be late for the first day of school, and we got to pick up Lenne and Lulu. Should I call Lulu to see if her sister Paine needs a ride?" Interrupting her dream Rikku pulled the drapes away from each other allowing the light to seek refuge within the room, erasing the shadows from the drowsy air. Rubbing away the sleep from her eyes Yuna sat up.
"What time is it?"
"Eight o clock." Throwing her self back underneath the covers she groaned, "I still have an hour of sleep left Rikku, I was still dreaming!" Pulling the covers away she grinned while waving a set of keys. A pink flip-flop key chain danced in the air.
"That's fine, I guess I'll just drive." Narrowing her eyes onto the keys she jumped up from the bed grabbing the keys while running towards the closet.
"That's okay Rikku I'd rather get to school in one piece, and you can't even drive yet anyways." Laughing to herself she cupped her mouth with her palm.
"I knew that would get you out of bed. So what are you going to wear?"
"Something cute. I really don't know yet." Pondering to herself her hand graced each clothes hanger, farther and farther back until she, and her thoughts were halted. His jersey…his blitz ball jersey from 8th grade, he had given it to her after the team had won in the finals. Memories raced through her mind, clenching to the sleeve, she tried not to remember. Overlooking her shoulder Rikku pulled her around.
"How about this one Yunie?" She held a white tank top and pink fleece sweater, "Here. It's perfect, well my work here is done I'm going to go get ready okay." Turning around Rikku hastily walked forward, but before leaving Yuna stepping forward grabbing a hold of Rikku's arm. Pausing for a moment Rikku concentrated solely on the floor. More faint than a whisper, words seemed to escape from within Yuna's lips.
"…Thank you." Turning around she smiled with her bright green eyes, her blonde hair still laid un-brushed. Seeing the pain through Yuna's eyes her smile quickly faded.
"Yuna… it's been five years… when are you going to move—"I know. I know I should…I just…can't right now." A smile danced upon Rikku's lips, "Enough about this, we have to get ready." Taking a step back Yuna nodded her head, and Rikku exited the door. That's how it had been… discarding the painful subject every time it would come into play. The memory of that day lived nowhere but in the minds of the people that were there that day, and forever embedded into Yuna's heart. As the door shut Yuna slowly stepped forth from within the closet. Making her way toward the balcony she opened the glass doors still chilled from the night before. Stepping out she leaned out onto the marble wall. Solemnly she looked forward to the Zanarkand border. Where he had disappeared.
"I'm still waiting for you to come running."
