Chapter 5: Funeral
Previously
Minako looked one last time to her friends before going to the other room then she whipped out her communicator. She pressed a button and then seven faces (Mamoru, Ami, Makoto, Haruka, Michiru, Hotaru and even Setsuna, who is currently on vacation from the Time Gates so she has no idea of what will be… and is presently happening to Usagi and Rei) appeared on the screen. She took a breath as she informed them about the accident.
Present
Days have passed, and Mamoru and Setsuna prepared the funeral for Usagi's family and Rei's grandfather.
The senshis and Mamoru never left the girls alone. They knew that the two needed as much support as they can have after everything that happened.
The day of the funeral arrived and they were surprised at how many people came out to offer their condolences.
Mr. Tsukino was well liked by everyone he knew. They will always remember him as a hard-working, diligent, kind and fair person. They also knew that he was protective of his family, especially with his daughter. After meeting Usagi on different occasions, they understood why he would be over-protective of her. They knew that he was also very proud of having a kind, caring, loving and beautiful daughter. They will remember him as a man who was fair to everyone, one who never judged others by where they came from but who they were. A man who lived a simple life but also wanted to provide his family with all those that he can give. A man not ruled by money but was ruled by love of family.
Mrs. Tsukino was the same as her husband, she didn't work but she was known around the neighborhood. She helped those who needed help and she also worked as a volunteer in orphanages and home for the aged. She taught her children to love and respect all those around them and she set a good example to a lot of people who knew her. She will always be remembered as a good wife, good mother, good friend and a person who can make a difference in others.
Shingo was known as a fierce friend by those around him. He was protective of those around him especially those who were close to his heart. He was a good student, a good athlete, a good friend, a good brother and a good son. He never hesitated to helped people who needed help. He was polite, industrious, playful, humble and loving.
People thought of Mr. Hino as a strange man. He was known as a pervert a few years back but because of the girls (Usagi, Rei, Minako, Ami and Makoto), people now see him as a very misunderstood man. Some saw him looking at families from a far with a longing look in his eyes. They knew that he was lonely and that all he wanted was a family to always be with, and he found that family in the girls, who were like his own children to him. He was strange but he was good, kind, selfless and caring. They knew that if one gets to know him, one wouldn't keep themselves from liking the old man.
Friends of the girls also arrived to show their condolences. People wanted Usagi and Rei to know that the people around them: friends, schoolmates, teachers, etc., wants to help them in any way that they can.
To help Usagi who to them was the sweetest, innocent, caring, friendly, naive and oftenly mistaken as stupid and simple minded girl. She was their angel. She helped those who felt down; she gave them back hope and taught them never to give up. They wanted to give share with her the light that she had unknowingly bestowed and helped them with.
To Rei who was know as a good role model. She seemed wise and matured beyond her years. At first she looked unapproachable but after Rei met Usagi they saw great change in her. She smiled more often and looked happier. She became approachable to them and she became a good friend to them too.
People gathered around Usagi and Rei to show the girls that people do care about their families. They wanted to show them their love to these people who made a difference in their lives and that they respected them.
Usagi and Rei were overwhelmed by the love that the people showed toward them and their family. They were happy that their family will always be remembered as people who were well loved by those around them. Even Rei's father arrived to show respect to his departed father. He wanted Rei to stay with him but he respected her decision when she said that she would rather stay with Usagi.
It rained on the way to the cemetery. To the girls, it seemed as if the whole cosmos cried with them.
Before the coffins were lowered to the ground, Usagi and Rei gave each of them white roses to show them the purity of their love to their family. People around them also did the same.
After the funeral, Mamoru comforted his dear Usako, she may not be his girlfriend anymore but he still thinks of her as his angel.
Minako comforted Rei. After all after Usagi, Rei was Minako's next closest friend.
The girls comforted the two who were like their sisters. They cried with them and they made a promise to the girl's families that they will make sure that the two will be well protected and that they will make sure that they will smile and laugh again.
