After my curse was lifted, I came back to my hometown. All of the townspeople and
the wise woman gave me a warm "Okaerinasai," and everyone burst into tears. I gave everyone a warm embrace. Kaya was one of the people who just burst into tears and held me tightly. She grew a lot—before, she was like a younger sister. Now, she is my bride-to-be. But...I really want San to be my bride.
Two months later I arrived, Kaya and I decided to marry the next month. We loved each other dearly, and we cared for each other.
On the week of our marriage, there was a big celebration. Women prepared a feast, men
went out to the safe forest and hunted for meat, careful so that they wouldn't anger the gods of the forest.
On the morning of the marriage, a big catastrophe occurred. Well, it was a pleasant
surprise for me-San, with both Moro's cubs. I was more than glad to see San, after only a few
months of separation.
Suddenly, San got off her brother's back, and came running to me, with her white dagger in her hand.
"Woah! Wait! Are you trying to kill me?!" I exclaimed.
"Yes! You….you….!" Her eyes were blazing with fire, burning my heart into ashes.
Even though I was about to get stabbed from a wolf princess, a big smile spread across my face.
"Ohayo, San," I said, with a soft smile on my face, in my lowest and most comforting tone as possible. Her face was burning. I could see her face, even though it was facing downwards.
"Don't Ohayo me! Why didn't you tell me you were going to marry?" she screamed, suddenly facing me, about to cry.
"Sorry. I was forgetting about it...It's just that Eboshi, the curse, and the Shishi God was the only thing on my mind...and of course, you. You made me forget about this part in life. And I didn't want to tell you because I thought you wanted to live in the forest with your brothers." I said, caressing her, and pulled her to a hug.
"Then come with me," she said, boldly. Her face didn't show a glimpse of red.
"What?" I exclaimed, suddenly backing up.
"Come with me. Live with me. I need you. A lot."
