Days Without You

by Samayo Kaze

Takes place during the time when Zeno was alone before the show begins. Yuki is running out of time and she knows it. There is nothing she can do but leave. They may not be able to be together but she can still tell him everything that happens. After all, who doesn't enjoy getting letters? So begins the travels a young girl told only through the letters she leaves behind.

7. Day 5

Day 5

Dear Zeno,

The river flooded during the night. Some of the villages closer to the river banks have some structural damage, but so far all the people seem to be alright. I hope you are okay too, Zeno. I slept badly last night, had nightmares all night. Nothing too bad, but it makes me restless. I had a close friend almost drown in a flooded river like this one once. It sticks with you, something like that. But I doubt I really need to tell you that, huh Zeno? Sorry, this seems to be a fairly unpleasant letter. I suppose that that does not really matter though. I do hope that you are being careful. I am such a worrier. I guess that I just care too much sometimes; it seems to be a reoccurring issue. I did not get any farther today, with the river up like it is travel is too dangerous. The danger probably does not matter to you though, but you should still be cautious. I need to go now, it is freezing and I still have not managed to find any dry wood. Stay safe Zeno.

Wishing for a fire,

Yuki
