Plzz comment, first story
Ch 1
The shop that grants wishes
A single cherry blossom tree stood proud and mighty in a field of emptiness and darkness. The tree was in full bloom and the petals fell like white snow in the calm wind. At the foot of the tree stood a single young man dressed in a majestic blue robe.
Slender built body and a calm face, there was nothing much about the young man but his eyes. The young man had mismatched eyes, one was a bright gold and the other was a deep blue. But against its beauty, he's beautiful eyes always wore the saddest gaze.
The gaze was on the cherry tree. He sighed, he could have guessed it. He has a customer.
Really, can't even have a night of sleep.
Beside him was now another young man, almost appearing out of the thin air. This one was a bit taller, his black hair shorter and he was dressed in complete black.
"This is ….." He's voice was almost a whisper
"A dream." The man in blue answered in a firm voice, he's gaze never leaving the tree.
"I got in a dream." He's lips formed into a smile
"Do you know where this is?" The one in blue asked
"A place where wishes are grant exchanged for a price." He's voice was now more clear and confident
"Right, and what is it that you wish for?"
"I want to see him again, can you grant that?"
"And what will you give exchange for that?"
The young man in black tensed at that question, but he's eyes were now ever more determined and certain. "My eye." His hand reached up to his cheek. "My most valued possession."
This time, the young man in blue turned to face the other. They both stared at each other. His eyes. They were just like he's own, mismatched.
"If I take that eye, your title as the Sakurazukamori will be gone"
"How…" The man in black began to ask, but he didn't, he knew the answer. "It's fine."
He ran the tip his finger on the side of the eye, feeling it one last time before it was gone.
"No." He replies. "I cannot take that as a price."
"Wh…"
"It is too much, to take the spiritual and physical connection between you and the one you love, in which you value equally, is too much." The wish granted explained.
"I shall take the title of Sakurazukamori that will even the wish."
The taller man exhales a sigh of relief. "Thank you."
"When you wake, you shall see him again." And the man in black was gone.
"A wish to see someone again." The wish granter whispered to the tree. "The same as me."
