Epilogue 1.

Doumyoji POV:

Two months have past since Sakurako's death. Makino was very lucky to find a donor. She has recovered but she has been avoiding me. I don't blame her because I know that Sakurako's death had bring much grief. Sakurako, you are really evil. You know that if you die, Makino will never be with me. You are making both Makino and me suffer. I walked to Makino's apartment. I pressed the doorbell and I waited, not knowing if Makino's opening the door.

'I'm coming,' I heard her saying as she rushes to the door. 'Oh, hi Doumyoji,' she said awkwardly as she opens the door.

'Can I come in?' I asked.

'Erm, it's best not to cause the house is in a mess,' she answered

'It's fine with me,' I said, ' please let me in, we've got to talk it over.'

'What?,' she asked, 'there's nothing between us.' After hearing this, I knew that I had to do something. I can't just let Makino leave my side. I did what all man would do. I pulled her into my arms and embraced her.

'Makino, I love you,' I said.

In my arms, Makino cried. 'I love you too Doumyoji. I wished I could be by your side but I can't.'

'Why? We both love each other.' I said

'But Sakurako loves you too. It's my fault that she died. If I had control of myself and pushed you away ( refer to chapter 5) when you hugged me at the hospital, all this would not have happened,' she cried quietly.

'It's not your fault. Even if you had control of yourself, I'll still love you. You should know that I always treat Sakurako as my friend, my sister. I have no other feelings for her.'

'I'm sorry. I just can't accept this. I'll never betray Sakurako. Not in the past, not now, not in the future. I'm sorry.'

'What about me? Haven't you considered how I would feel? Makino I know you can't accept my love now. I can wait. Be it one month, one year or even ten years, I'll wait till you accept me.'

'It's impossible Doumyoji. I'm leaving this place tomorrow morning.'

'Where are you going?'

'I'm leaving for Singapore to start a new life. Bye bye Doumyoji,' she said and she gave me a goodbye kiss. She closed the door and now I know for sure that this is the end of our love. But I'm sure that no matter how long time might pass, Makino will always be in my heart.
