It's been fifty-some years.
That, I know.
Life has swept past us in too much of a hurry.
That, I agree.
Why did we part?
Our mutual agreement.
For naught.
"Mikan, I dearly cherish you with my entire being."
Darling, I can't say the same.
I cannot dispel you from my mind.
I have suffered through enough.
And this time, we shall not err in the same way we did half-century's past.
"Natsume, I can't love you as I did."
Forgive me for my sins and do not forsake me.
That, I can very well complete.
Did love ever caress us during our time spent together as friends?
I love you.
A/N: Well, this is a follow-up to my one-shot "Adieu." Hope you all enjoy this little piece of nonsensical babble. :) ~Whillenwolf
