Chapter 21
China stayed silent as he walked out of the meeting room. England had won, and now he would raise Hong Kong his way, without as much influence from him if at all. He signed unhappily as he thought about this, only to have the sigh turn into a squeak when he felt a hand land on his shoulder.
The owner to the hand was France, who upon startling the Asian said, "Don't be so sad, mon ami. Or did you not read what was written about Hong Kong?"
"I read it, aru. England keeps Hong Kong," China said obviously displeased.
"Oui, but not forever. It said that he only gets to keep the boy 'on lease,'" France replied. Upon hearing these words China stared at him as if unsure of what he heard. At last China asked, "On lease?"
"Oui, that should make you happy," France said before beginning to leave. As he left he continued, "It at least means that you get him back eventually, which is much more than he has given me."
France left too quickly for China to respond, but left the man with plenty to think of. But most of all, it made China happy to realize that some day he and Hong Kong could be reunited.
It was over a century later that China answered the door to find England on the other side. The Chinaman sighed when he saw the person, as if displeased to see him standing there, only to then look confused when he saw another person standing behind him. The person was a teenage boy, roughly 16, with long-cropped, blackish-brown hair which hid a pair of slightly larger eyebrows. The boy stared at China for a moment as the elder thought over who the stranger was, only to then smile when China realized who he was.
Upon realizing who the boy was, China rushed past England to embrace Hong Kong. All the while China said, "Oh Hong Kong, I feel like it has been forever since I saw you. And how you've grown, aru! I guess you're no longer the little boy you used to be, aru."
As China ranted on, Hong Kong returned the embrace, only to look away from China when he felt England pat the boy on the back. When the boy turned to look at England, he saw the other wave good-bye with a sad smile and begin to walk off. Several moments later, China realized that England was gone. Due to this, China ushered the youth into his house; and once again their house.
So I know that the ending isn't really anything like how it is hinted at in the manga, but I thought this would be sweeter.
So that's the end. Thank you everyone who read the story and or reviews, followed, or favorite. Much love~
