He finally understood. He finally realized why his children had been so strange lately. He thought that it was just a phase but it was something much different.

"Sakura-chan," he said.

"Dad?" Sakura answered. She was on her way to their breakfast table. She sat down and started to eat.

"I know everything," he said. "Your magic…"

"What are you talking about?" Sakura asked. She was slightly alarmed about what her father had just said. How could he have known about her magic?

"I saw your book when I was cleaning your room," he explained.

Sakura panicked. She didn't know what excuse she can possibly invent to get her out of trouble.

"Tell me," he said, in a deep, serious voice. "Can you use that return card to go back to the past?"

"Umm…. Anou…"

Sakura was still speechless. She can't say yes, but she can't say no either. She closed her eyes and started to explain calmly.

"I understand," he said. "Can you take me back to that time?"

"That time?" Sakura asked. She didn't know what her father was talking about.

"You know, that time."

Sakura unsealed her magic key and revealed her magic circle. She held the return card in her hands and the time card was on her tabletop.

"Well, I will see you again," her father said. He was smiling as he vanished into thin air.

Fujitaka was under a tall Sakura tree. He looked up the tree and gazed at its beauty. He turned around and saw the face of a woman. Without hesitation, he embraced her.

"It's good to see you again, Nadeshiko…."
