The banquet was over. Akito stood on the decking outside her villa, staring out over the rest of the main house. It was night – silent and dark, but quiet as a lake. She had given everything up – the curse; Kureno – and her mother. Ren Sohma was finally leaving the main house, having shouted something incoherent at Akito before storming out, probably to find herself a little home away from everyone.
She'd lost so much. Akito walked back inside, letting the sleeve of her kimono slip slightly down her arm as she made her way back into her sleeping area. There, inside a box, was a letter that had been given to her by Tohru Honda. Sent, actually, by way of Shigure. She hadn't the energy to open it before.
Taking the letter, written on some form of handmade paper, Akito walked out, standing in the middle of her visiting room. She carefully unfolded the letter, eyes widening as she read the contents. Shigure stood in the doorway, watching as a smile fell on Akito's face.
Lets stay together, always.
-Tohru.
