Seifer sat on the cafeteria, swirling his food around his plate as Fujin and Raijin looked around for violators. Fujin spotted Zell Dintch, who was once again running for his favorite hotdogs.
"THERE. ZELL DINTCH." Fujin said.
"Yeah, Seifer! Let's go get him." Raijin added.
Seifer pushed his plate aside and said, "You guys go ahead, I'm not in the mood."
Fujin's blue eyes looked at him concerned, "WHAT'S THE MATTER?"
He lifted his hands on his head and ran it through his hair, "I don't know… I've been feeling weird lately."
Raijin and Fujin looked at each other as their friend continued to brood. Finally, Fujin stood up, "SEIFER. FOLLOW ME. WE NEED TO TALK."
She started to walk away and Seifer stood up. She turned to Raijin and said, "STAY."
Seifer and Fujin walked to the elevator and got on in. When it stopped to the second floor, Seifer realized she was taking her to the balcony.
When they got there, Seifer immediately leaned against the railing, "What do ya want to talk about?"
"MEIOU."
He turned to her and he noticed that she wore a strange expression on her. He sighed, "Well, I'm here to listen… since I have nowhere else to go."
Fujin also leaned on the railing and said, "SEIFER… IN LOVE?"
It was question that he couldn't answer so he stayed silent. Fujin continued to watch him and when he didn't reply she sighed, "Seifer please… answer my question."
He looked at her and he realized she was talking seriously. He hadn't heard her speak like that since she tried to take him back from Ultimecia. He swallowed, "I don't know… I think I do…"
"Then… why don't you try to approach her if you love her that much?"
He looked up to the sky and said, "She hates me… she knows that I bombed Trabia, that I killed everyone she knows… that I killed her fiancé."
Fujin walked to the nearby bushes and picked a flower from it, as if she was lost in thought. Finally, she sighed and turned to Seifer, "Here's a flower, if you really love Meiou, throw it off to the air but if…" She seemed lost for words, "If you love… me, then… give it to me."
Seifer looked at her increduously as he held the flower in his hand. Fujin smiled tenderly at him, "I have loved you for the longest time, Seifer. I was more than willing to do everything just to have you. But if your heart hungers for someone else, I have no choice but to let you go… because I'm willing to do anything for your happiness. In a way, your happiness is enough to make me happy…"
He looked down at the flower and leaned on the railing again, thinking his decision. Fujin watched him, waiting for his verdict. Finally he sighed and let the flower fall down from his palm, making it float in the air outside.
"I'm sorry, Fujin." Seifer apologized.
He looked at her and she smiling at him, "It's alright, I understand." She shook her head, "But also understand what I am saying. I was more than willing to do anything for you… to see you happy. If you really love Meiou, then you should do the same. You may have done something wrong to her, but if you feel that all you want is her happiness, you should show that you are more than willing to make sacrifices for her… like I had done."
Seifer continued to lean on the railing then suddenly, he turned to Fujin and embraced her, "Fujin… I'm sorry if I hurt you…"
Fujin hugged him back for a second before she pushed him away. "ALRIGHT. GO TO MEIOU…"
He smiled down at her as he brushed a lock of her hair off her face, "But remember, you're still my posse… you and Raijin."
She smiled and handed the keys of the Ragnarok to him, "GO. SHE'S WAITING."
Taking the keys from her, Seifer kissed her forehead and went of to a run, leaving Fujin behind. It was a few minutes more when she finally kneeled and started sobbing.
