Step by step.

Learning to breathe again, to talk again, to smile again. Learning.

Step by step.

Such small steps, two forward, none back. She loves us all. I am loved. Loved. I need nothing more.

Step by step.

More and more, a rhythm, a dance, a story unfolding day by day. Too fast, too slow, steady.

Step by step.

After a month, I had already fallen. Nothing could keep me from her.

Step by step.

The door is unlocked when Kyou and I go in after her. We'd have broken it down otherwise.

Step by step.

And she's there.
