Near the end of Volume 23 into the beginning of Volume 24

Disclaimer: I do not own Hana Yori Dango. I fell in love with the story when it came out and I highly respect Kamio-sensei.

"Don't cry.

Even when you cry, I can't do anything." - Doumyouji

Those words just kept repeating in my mind, over and over again. They were colder than the trash filled ravine's water now soaking my cheap shoes and socks. Those words took all the warmth from my heart, now colder than my numb feet. My relentless tears were streaming down my cheeks letting out all the hurt that was bottled up since that pouring night I left.

She thought back to the unforgettable night when they were stargazing together. There is no place I'd rather be than surrounded by your arms, the warmth of your chest on my back, your soft breath on my neck; it rivalled heaven.

How could you throw it away? Our unworldly love, symbolized with the Saturn necklace, encased in the little velvet box. I quickened my pace and searched frantically. I can't lose you, not this easily, not without a fight.

Ever since you came into my life, you taught me so much. You knew so little about love, you took it and made it yours, and you redefined it and made it something worth fighting for. It might be too late but, I know what you tried so hard to show me.

"Loving someone is like this… I am willing to lose anything for it.

It must be like that." - Makino
