Here we go! I'm so sorry for the late update! For those who have not given up on my stories, I thank you from the bottom of my heart! For those who are reading my stories, I thank you all!

Shizuru quickly turned around but she couldn't see anyone. Natsuki, I thought I heard you just now. Shizuru thought.

"You did, Shizuru." Shizuru looked around again but still couldn't see anyone. Natsuki? Where are you?

"Look around again." Shizuru obeyed and looked around again. This time, she saw it. A floating blue glowing sphere-like thing flying in circles beneath the tree next to Natsuki's grave. Shizuru stood up and walked towards the sphere-like thing. When she reached the tree, she stretched her hand towards the sphere-like thing. The minute her finger touched the sphere-like thing, it glowed even brighter. When Shizuru opened her eyes, she saw Natsuki standing under the tree and smiling at her.

"Hey, Shizuru."

"Natsuki!" Shizuru exclaimed and hugged her.

"Natsuki. Natsuki! I can touch you! Are you really here?" Shizuru asked when she pulled back.

"Idiot, weren't you hugging me just now?" Shizuru smiled before hugging her again.

"But why can I touch you? Aren't ghosts supposed to be untouchable by the living?"

"I duuno. I supposed it was because I said that I would look after you even though you're married and has a child." A sad look came over both Natsuki's and Shizuru's face.

"Natsuki, actually…" Shizuru hesitated before continuing. "Actually, Masashi and I weren't married at all. We only pretended to be married so that Chikane won't be bullied by others for not having a mother or not having a father. Chikane… Chikane isn't our child. She was in an accident. In that accident, her mother was killed. Then, while she was in a coma after the accident, her father left her and was killed shortly after. We pitied her so we adopted her. She was young at that time so she thought we were her parents. I'm sorry for not telling you. I'm sorry. But I couldn't reveal to Chikane that fact although I think she knows already. I just left Masashi. I liked him before but it was only after your death that I realized what a heartless person he was. The reason I didn't know about your decision was because he read it secretly and after finding out about your decision, he tore the letter up. I'm sorry. If only I'd known, this wouldn't have happened. I'm sorry, Natsuki."

"It's ok, Shizuru. It was my fault. If only I hadn't been a coward at that time to admit my true feelings to you, you wouldn't have gone to Masashi and all this wouldn't have happened. I'm sorry."

"What do you mean, your true feelings?" Shizuru asked. Natsuki blushed immediately. (Can ghosts even blush?)

"Shi-SHIZURU!" A red face Natsuki pouted. Shizuru giggled. No one but Natsuki can make her laugh a real laugh.

"Mama!" a little voice rang out.

"Chikane!" Shizuru called out in shock.

"Mama? Mama!" the sound of someone approaching them was getting louder.

"Well, guess I'll be going now." Shizuru whipped around to see Natsuki fading.

"Natsuki, wait!" Shizuru reached her hand out desperately.

"I'll be watching over you and Chikane. Take care of yourselves."

"Natsuki!"

"Love you, 'Zuru." Natsuki said before disappearing.

"Love you too, 'Suki." Shizuru said sadly before looking at Chikane who stopped behind her.

"Mama? What's wrong?" Chikane asked, cocking her head to one side.

"No, it's nothing, darling. Let's go home, shall we?" Chikane nodded and they started to walk.

"I'll be seeing you soon, Shizuru." Natsuki's voice said before the flying blue sphere tailed after them.

Well, I should say this chapter wasn't so bad. I'm really sorry for not updating my stories as fast as I used to. I just don't have much time to use the computer these days but I hope that you will all continue to read my stories. I'm also thinking of adding Omakes to my stories so let me know what you think about it! Thanks!
