Wave Hands Like Clouds

Spring finally arrived in Azabu-Juban, and Chibi-Usa couldn't have been happier. The bitter cold from winter was subsiding, and she could already smell the fresh flowers from the garden.
"Come back soon." Hotaru's voice echoed in her head, from when they last saw each other, before the winter. It was only months, but to her, it was an eternity.
Chibi-Usa walked outside, inhaling the spring air, and her feet practically moved on their own; she already knew her destination.
She knew the way by heart.
Hotaru looked outside her house, the sun warm on her skin. The windows by the front door gleamed in the light. She opened the door ajar, she knew she was waiting for someone.
She just knew it.
Hotaru looked up, and she smiled brightly; Chibi-Usa arrived, practically beaming.
"Welcome back, Chibi-Usa." Hotaru spoke, walking towards the pink-haired girl, and Chibi-Usa giggled, wrapping her arms around her, never wanting to let go.
"It's good to be back, Hotaru."
