I start to walk away from the docks but am stopped by a faint whisper. It
sounds like someone calling my name. It's just my imagination. I keep
walking on the docks but then the docks behind me begin to creak. I turn
around and see him. I think that I'm dreaming. He's dead. He's been
dead. It's not him. He looks at me with those blue eyes and somehow,
someway I know it's him. "Yuna?" he looked at me as if he was a blind
man who just regained his eyesight. "Is that really you?"
I look at him and my eyes begin to water. I just can't believe that he's back. I mean, how, when....why. All I can manage to say is just simply, "I missed you." My words are choked by my tears and they come out as short, melodious gasps for air. I run to him and embrace him in a tight hug. The tears don't stop flowing down my face and he begins to also cry. We part for a minute and he holds my head in his hands. He gently kisses my forehead and strokes my hair.
After a period of time I ask him, "Do you remember when you said you would be my servant for a day?" He nods in response. "I know I already used that day, but can I buy you from your other master for one day and serve me?"
He smiles at me with that unforgettable smile. "I would do anything for you. No matter what the day, hour, minute...I have and always will love you." He gently brushes my lips.
"Let's go swimming."
"What?"
"I said let's go swimming."
"Yeah...I heard you but really, that's what you want to do first. Wait...Is this some weird kind of swimming. Like some made-up swimming thing you thought of while I was gone?"
"No, no. It's nothing like that. Just regular swimming." I start to take off my clothes and am left in my bra and some short shorts. He just stares at me with an undeniable awe. "Come on!" I jump into the water and look up to where he is standing on the dock. "Come on! It's not cold!"
He begins to undress and I start to sing a strip-tease song. "Hey, cut it out," he says with a chuckle. He's then left there in his boxers just about to dive in the water. "That better not be cold water."
"Just trust me."
