Kiku slowly open his eyes.

"Ah.. It's already morning… Gahh!" he tried to sit but can't.

"Oi, Jiao, Kiku has woken up aru!" China smacked Ou Lou.

The cherry petals slowly touching the ground.

"Jiao-san, how long did I faint?"

"Hey! Why didn't you ask me aru?" China got upset.

"Japan asked me." She glared. "It's been a day, Kiku…" Jiao sighed.

"I see.."

His soul-less eyes head toward the window. The spring has come, Kiku was glamor by its dramatic sceen.

"I want to see my cherry blossom garden." His eyes sparkled.

"Hmm? This is the first time I've seen you like this." Jiao smiled a bit. "If you want to see it so badly, then come!"

"Hai."


Flowers will bloom, oh yes they will.

What have I left behind for you?

"What's with this feelings? Somehow I both felt worry and mild at the same time." Kiku thought.

Flowers will bloom, oh yes they will.

For you, who are yet to be born someday.

"Ah, this feeling, I wonder what's going on?" Kiku suddenly ran forward.

"Hey—Kiku!" Yelled Jiao.

"No, no! I must be dreaming!" Kiku keep slapping himself. He started to tremble, tears flowed down on his face. Jiao can hear his hiccups, right in front of her, Japan's villages are eventually destroyed by earthquakes, fire and tsunami. Kiku lost controlled, he was so mad, bursted his anger by screaming in agony. The people suffered on the ground, they don't deserved this.

"K—Kiku.." Ou Lou stepped toward. "Listen, don't be afraid, I'm here and always be here with you, okay?"

He nodded. "There there…" Jiao hugged him tight. She spotted something as she looking around. "Kiku! Look over there!"

Japan's teary face turned right, his eyes opened wide. Blossoms bloomed all over the mountains, the dark sky became clearer.

"My blossoms…. They're all bloomed, right Jiao-chan?" Kiku laughed in tears.

"Wah-! Did you just call me 'chan'?"

"Yes I did." He sniffed. "The sun has set, let's return back home."

"Yeah, right."


"Aiyaa! I was very worry aru! Five times of writing Chinese letters, now—Ehh? Kiku? What's with those tears?" said China.

"There was an earthquake at my place, it destroyed everything. But thanks to Jiao, my moods are better."

"Oh… I didn't know that… aru.. Let me bring you guys some food, okay? You two must be starving."


Today's evening was beautiful too. The moon shone bright tonight. Japan's eyes dried and emotionless, but this time his eyes reflected something miserable, sorrow and despair.

"How can I save my country..?" he sighed.

"Oi Kiku, the dinner is served. Let's eat." Jiao poked his shoulder.

"Hai."


"Cheer up, Kiku. Today's dinner included wonton, egg roll, fried rice, green beans and Chinese pot stickers!"

"That's a lot." Ou Lou picked up her chopstick and started to eat.

"Itadakimasu.."

The Asian trio somehow ate all of those Chinese stuffs and went to bed. Jiao was the first person to fall asleep, then China.

"Thank you for being such a good friend, Jiao. I… I just want to say that I.. I like you." Kiku blushed and slowly kiss her forehead.

"I must protected you, no matter what happens."
