Here we go:
The next day Kaori and Kōusei along with Charlie and Elizabeth left Leni and Dils house and headed home.
Kaori and Kōusei were doing well in their respective subjects in school
In terms of Amercian football, Kaori had guided her team to the playoffs going unbeaten the regular season, the Christmas saw Kaori, Kōusei, Charlie, Elizabeth, Lori, Bobby, Leni, Dil, Luna, Sam, Luan, Lynn Jr, Lincoln, Lucy, Lola, Lisa and Lily all celebrated Christmas together, it would be the last Christmas Kaori would spend with the Louds before moving to Miami and it was a good one, Mr Grouse dressed as Santa, big massive turkey and later a video call from Watari and Sherry who couldn't make it as he had a football match the next day (Boxing Day). However their was a clear decline in Lenis health as she looked a lot more frail as well as she had to carry a walking stick and slightly skinnier than she used to look, Leni would frequently hang out with Kaori and Lori and would discuss her treatment and fashion lines she had released for Christmas.
In January, the High School playoffs begun, in the State semi final round they battered the North Michigan Wolfpack 45-14 and then in the Michigan Bowl which was the state championship between the Royal Woods High Eagles and the South Michigan Bears.
This was it, it was time to win a 2nd state Championship
She received a good luck kiss from Kōusei and went out on the field with her team.
Luna Loud played the national anthem and Leni was the singer, by this point she needed a script to say all of the words as she had forgot them and was more diztzier then ever and was now in a wheelchair, as well as this, she looked pale and weak, kinda like Kaori in her supposed final days.
The game kicked off and on her first drive, Kaori scored a touchdown + Field goal 7-0
However the Bears capialized and scored on their next drive + Field goal 7-7
On their next drive though Kaori threw an interception and it costed the Eagles a touchdown + Field Goal 7-14
Then Kaori wasted the next drive and was forced to punt
End of Half
Cheerleaders came on and did a celebratory dance and as well as the mascot mania mini game then the 2nd half began
The Bears scored on their kickoff return and successfully kicked a field goal 7-21
Then Kaori threw another interception on the Bears 1 yard line which the Bears used to score on their next drive + field goal 7-28
It looked like the Royal Woods High Eagles were going to look like the Philadelphia Eagels from Super Bowl XV, and that would happen yet again.
Kaori managed to drive the Eagles to the 30 yard line where she incompleted 3 passes to take it to 4th down where a field goal put it to 10-28
The game ended not long after that and the score kinda replicated Super Bowl XV, Royal Woods High Eagles 10-28 South Michigan Bears.
Kaori had lost the state title in her final game as an Eagle, despite the miserable performance, the Royal Woods High Eagles fan base, Kōusei and the Louds comforted her, she had led hem this far on her own accord and with her replacement being just as good as she was, The Royal Woods High Eagles fans decided to celebrate.
January saw Leni release her final clothing line, titled the 'Symphony of Leni' It featured some beautiful clothes which Kaori bought a few.
In February, Leni was in the hospital in and out and eventually was put in the hospice, Kaori and Kōusei visited her on February 18th and it didn't look good, Lenis breathing felt laboured, she looked confused and could only recognise Kaori, she was virtually just skin and bone at this point with a few muscle still left as well as this she could barely talk anymore, apart from a few sentences, the rest of her speech sounded like jibberish and now she couldn't Evan walk.
Dil looked defeated, he looked at Leni and told both Kaori and Kōusei on what to do about Leni.
After a long 4 hour conversation which saw tears from all 3 of them, they made their decision, a decision they didn't want to make, but felt like they had to.
To put Leni out of her misery, to free her from her pain and suffering.
They began to say their last goodbyes
Kōusei was first as he knew Leni the least, but Evan he still had a few words
"Leni, I have to thank you for reuniting me with Kaori, my love of my life, hope we can meet soon" said Kōusei
Leni was asleep so she didn't respond
Next was Kaori
"Hello Leni, I would like to thank you for all you did for me, that day your brought me back to life will be treasured in my heart for the rest of my life, We've done so much together from trips to the mall to the fun drives you would take me on in your pink convertible, don't worry I'll raise Charlie and Elizabeth the way you would like them to be raised, I'll miss you Leni, I will see you again once we all die" said Kaori with tears in her eyes as she kissed Lenis forehead.
Finally it was Dil
"Leni, I love you, I loved you for 3 of the best years of my life and I remember the days we used to talk to each other or the day you told me about Kaoris resurrection, ah those were the days, I remember the final Christmas we spent together, you bravely decided to carry on the old Leni way and lived life like you've got another 60 years left not a few months, now the time has come to be united with God, Thank you Leni for making my life a complete one" said Dil weeping
After he said it, he pulled a revolver out of his pocket and put the bullet in and with slight hesitation pointed the gun at Lenis forehead.
"I'm sorry" whispered Dil
Dil pulled the trigger
