A young man with spiky blue hair was walking down the street. People were staring at him, not because of his tattoo on his right eye. No, he caught their attention thanks to the bouquet of red roses. He didn't care for their whispering and strange looks they were giving him. He had something better to do. Suddenly a little pink haired girl bumped on him.
"Wow sir, you have beautiful flowers! My mum has a garden full of flowers!" - She smiled at him showing her perfect teeth. The young man smiled and kneeled down. "Do you want one, little miss?" "Really? I'd love that!" - The young man took out one of the roses and gave it to the little one. - "A beautiful rose for a beautiful girl."
"Nashi, where are you?" – A tall pink haired man shouted. He was terrified. His wife left to buy an ice cream for their daughter and he lost her. His wife will be very angry if he doesn't find her soon. "Hey dad! I am here! This man gave me a flower! Isn't it nice?" - Her father looked at the young man while taking the little one in his arms. -"Thank you very much. She loves flowers. She got that from her mother."
"Daddy, daddy where is mummy? Oh, there is she! Mummy look how tall I am!" - The young blond woman smiled at her daughter. - "Yes, you are."
You could see pain in the blue haired man as he watched the happy family. All his life he was alone and he wished he could be like them one day. - "Umm, excuse me, he broke the silence, can you please tell me where the city graveyard is?" "It's outside the city. You can't miss it. It is surrounded with tall pine trees." "Thank you."- Then he turned around and disappeared in the distance.
"Bye sir!" – Natsuki waved at him.
….
"Tall pines, tall pines…. Ah, there they are!" He entered the graveyard and started to search for the familiar name. After some time, he finally found it.
-Seigrain Fernandez-
Beloved son and brother
"Hey brother, long time no see. It's me Jellal. I bought you some flowers. You don't have to tell me anything, I know it is weird to bring you red roses. But they reminded me of someone I saw yesterday. Oh brother, you should have seen her! Her scarlet hair was standing out of the crowd. I never saw someone so beautiful. She even looked at me and smiled. I fell in love at first sight even though I know I won't see her again. Life is so unfair brother. First he takes you away from me, then he shows me this girl and she disappears. It hurts, you know."
…..
The sun already fell down when Jellal left the graveyard. After long walk he reached a bridge. A slim figure was standing there. The wind was playing with her scarlet hair and the light of the street lamp gave her figure something magical. "It's her!"- He shouted in his mind. As the young man came nearer he saw tears falling down her beautiful face. She was leaning over the fence. "No, she wouldn't jump." Just as he said that, the young woman started to climb up the fence.
"Nooo" – He shouted as he ran towards the crying beauty. Luckily, he was fast enough to catch her in his arms.
"It's ok now. You are safe." The scarlet maiden looked deep in his eyes and knew that that was true. She will be safe with him. Now and forever.
