Epilogue: Kokoro
It's official. Today was my first day of the new term. I'm in my second year of college.
It's been roughly three months since my second voyage to the gallery. After all the horrors I've seen, I'd say I'm doing pretty well. Nightmares don't plague my dreams nearly as often as they did after my first trip. Maybe it's because I gained a sense of closure. Guilt no longer rains my consciousness.
I was waiting at the train station, the wind flying past me as another bullet train flew by.
Garry had promised to take me out to celebrate. He told me to wait here after my classes were over. I sighed. We'd found out that his new apartment was reasonably close to the dorm rooms. I smirked at the new part, remembering Garry's comment. "I've been stuck here for eight years?! That means I haven paid my rent 96 months!"
Garry... It's nice to know that we can see each other often. Like all that work to get him back... paid off. Speaking of my journey to the gallery... I haven't seen or heard from Seiran. Garry hasn't either. I wonder if he got out aright...
My head was full of blissful thoughts of all times I spent in the gallery, both adventures, when a red scarf floated down and landed in my arms. I stared at it, shock dominating my features. This was mine... The one I gave to Seiran... My head snapped up I looked around for that unmistakable orange head.
My eyes met his pirate gold ones. He was standing; arms crossed on the other side of the platform, his flaming hair blowing freely in the breeze.
Eyes smiling he mouthed something. "Mata ne..."
A fierce wind followed by another train.
When it cleared he was gone.
I heard running footsteps. Turning around I spotted Garry trotting over to me.
"Sorry... Did I keep you waiting?"
I smiled. "Not at all."
He ruffled his already unruly hair. "What's up? You seem really happy."
That only made me grin even bigger. "Nothing..."
"Oh come on! Tell me. I like to know what makes you happy..."
"It's nothing!"
Our conversation seemed to fade into the background after awhile, bringing me back to Seiran. To the person who found his true heart and soul.
"Mata ne..."
Let's meet again...
I smiled looking up to the vast endless sky.
Yeah...
Let's meet again.
