Epilogue
(Third Person POV)
It has been five years since then.
Misaki was on her way home – or rather, Usui's apartment. She had been living with him for years now. She thought back five years ago, on the summer of June, when she and Usui flew all the way to America just to attend Cassandra's wedding.
"It's so nice to see you guys again!" The bride herself hugged Misaki and Usui. After that, she gestured to her husband.
"This is Chris. You two have met each other right, Takumi?" Cassandra introduced Misaki and Chris to each other and the both of them shook hands.
"Thank you for inviting us," Misaki said, taking notice of the person behind them waiting to greet the newly-weds. She took Usui with her as they walked away.
Misaki didn't see Carina that day. Usui told her that Cassandra took her to rehabilitation and will take her back home once she has fully recovered. To Misaki's relief, it was good news.
Her eyes roamed around the crowd of people dressed for the wedding, until she saw Kazuhito-sensei. She was about to call him when a woman who resembled Marie a little crouched down and hugged the small girl. Her tears were about to fall but she quickly wiped it away using the back of her hand.
She looked like she was in her early to middle twenties. Her brown hair was styled in a French twist and the white dress she was wearing reached down a little above her knees. When she heard someone, she quickly stood up.
'Could that be?'
There was a man that was about the same age as her, carrying a one year old baby and a three year old boy walking in front of him. Kazuhito, the woman, and the man with the children started to have a conversation when the baby suddenly cried and forced the couple to leave and attend to the young one.
Misaki and Usui went to Kazuhito-sensei's side.
"That's her, right?" Misaki asked, watching the family of four walk away.
"Yes." Kazuhito-sensei let out a sad sigh.
"At least Marie saw her again," she said. "When she's old enough, I'm sure she'll understand." Misaki patted his back hesitantly. Kazuhito-sensei didn't say anything.
Misaki crouched down and played and talked to Marie, while Usui and Kazuhito-sensei talked.
'It was a nice wedding,' Misaki thought to herself.
She tried to remember the recent events. Misaki was promoted recently. Usui was helping out with the Walkers' company. Cassandra and her husband were expecting their first child. 'That's a good thing.' Carina finally graduated from university. 'That's another good thing.' Sakura and Kuuga were off somewhere to have their honeymoon. Shizuko was slowly getting successful with her company. Café Maid Latte was still going well. Kazuhito-sensei finally found someone who wasn't bothered by Marie and loved her like she was her own child. Misaki was sure she received a wedding invitation.
Now what was the date...
She unlocked the door and went inside.
"Takumi, when is Kazuhito-sensei's wedding again?"
There wasn't any response. She placed the groceries on the dining table and just as she was about to turn around, her vision suddenly went black.
"What?! Takumi, if this is you playing prank on me, it's not funny!" She tried to get a hold of him by throwing her hands back but all she got was air.
"Do as I say."
His mouth was close to her ear. She couldn't do anything but to follow his order. She turned left and right when Usui finally said stop. She heard the doorknob being turned and then he asked her to walk in.
Whatever it was that covered her eyes were now off. Her vision was still blurry. When she saw what was happening, she gasped in disbelief.
Petals of roses were on the bed. Small candles were on the floor and all around the bed, forming a heart. There were white, red, and baby pink roses that were put together and placed practically everywhere.
She then looked down. Her eyes started brimming with tears. There he was, kneeling on one leg and holding out a box where a silver ring encrusted with a small diamond rested upon the velvet. Then he started talking.
"You've waited for me for three years. I've been searching for you for three years. We have spent five years together but I would love to begin the next chapter of my life with you. Let us be official in the eyes of God. Let us be united as our family and friends give us their blessing. But I suppose everything will start with this proposal, so . . ."
Usui looked at her straight in the eyes and said, "Ayuzawa Misaki, will you marry me?"
Misaki tried to dry her tears as laughter came out in between saying the word he was waiting for.
"Yes."
He stood up as he placed his lips on hers while at the same time sliding the ring on her wedding finger.
"You are a sneaky bastard." In between their kiss, tears started forming again in her eyelids again.
"That I am." But this time he was the one who wiped away her tears.
The two looked at each other, their eyes locked. Without any words to say, they embraced each other.
Their love story continued with a new chapter, taking them into a whole new journey together.
A/N Okay, so this is really the very last chapter for Memory of Love. Once again thank you for reading from chapter 1 and until this very last one. This is just something that I want to inform to you readers, there are 3 more stories that I will write for KWMS. The very first story that I will have is Fallen For You follow by the sequel of Fallen For You and the last one is the continuation for the story Home. The story Home will be update either with Fallen For You or the sequel. So what I plan is that in order for you readers not to wait for the next chapter when I'm having my author's block why don't I have the story complete first then I'll update. So you'll not be receiving any alert for my story for a year or so. That's all the information that I can give... So until then :D
