Megumi sat at her cherry wood vanity, gazing at herself in the mirror. It wasn't the same face six months ago. Her hair once long silky hair was cut short about her chin, there were dark circles around her eyes that betrayed her loneliness. After leaving Hiko on that fateful day in Rome, she realized that life was too short. Not entirely original, but truthful nonetheless. Armed with her Ph. D she headed for the nearest hospital and before she knew it she was hammering on kid's knees and curing the sick. The money started rolling in and she was finally able to buy her own spacious flat that she now lived comfortably in. But still something was missing from her life and she didn't realize how much she had until that fateful day in Rome…
Dear Sanosuke,
It's me, bet this was the last person you'd expect to hear from. I'm not certain of what to say to you. Sorry I guess would be a good place to start. Sorry that I left you like I did. Sorry for all the times I yelled at you, judged you. I'm not trying to win you back, I've accepted there's no real chance of that. I just wanted to you to know that I regret how we ended, it wasn't the way I really wanted it. And you know what? You were right about everything. About Hiko, about me. I should have listened, we could've worked because I know there's no place else I happier than when I'm with you. I miss that place. It was just too bad I figured that out too late.

Three weeks later Megumi, ready to go to work at five in the morning, found an envelope under her door with her name scrawled on it. She recognized it to be Sano's.
