Faraway, to you.
Mayu's pov.
"In the late evening, as the Spring sky turns to a light peach colour, it stretches everywhere, hovering over the tall mountains.
The stars in the night sky are singing my song. carrying my thoughts, they sparkle.
Even now, I still feel nostalgic thinking about the day when I met the beautiful you, I can see the smiling cheeks of the lovely you...
Can you hear my song as it traverses the sea and crosses over the mountains?
I want to lightly and softly cross the sea of stars just to surprise you.."
A small little figure with raven hair spread across the pillow, her body was buried by soft cushiony covers. The pale young girl's cheeks were painted with a deep rose pink, her breathing was slow and her eyes were closed. Suddenly she heard a noise, a creak of the floorboards,
"Mayuyu?.."
She opened her beady eyes slowly and turned her head to face a small standing figure.
"How are you feeling Yukirin? I brought some porridge with dried plums~" The doll like girl carried a tray of hot and dry food, walking ever so carefully not drop anything as she was still a small girl as well, she knelt down by Yuki's side and blew on the hot porridge.
"say ah~"
Mayu brought the spoon closer to the raven haired one.
"ah..~"
Yuki parted her lips and opened her mouth, slowly tasting the porridge with her taste buds she smiled softly at Mayu.
"oishi Mayuyu..~"
Mayu's cheeks turned warm and smiled back at Yuki, and began to feed her more.
Moments later, Mayu began telling Yuki stories to pass the time.
"After crossing many seas, the girl finally arrived at a faraway country. In this foreign land she met another young girl. The girl who had arrived had eyes the colours of the sea and summer sky, while the other girl had mysterious dark brown eyes that reminded her of chocolate~
This is why the blue eyed girl liked her at first glance and fell in love!~ They talked about things they liked and taught each other how to dance~
'What lies beyond the sea?' asked the girl with dark eyes.
The other girl replied, 'I don't know because there is an endless world beyond the sea.'
But she also said, 'do you want to cross the sea of stars together?~' the girl reached out her hand to the dark eyed one.
'..un!~' she took her hand and both of them smiled, making a promise to always love each other no matter how far they were.
The end~"
Mayu finished her story, she looked at the pale laying figure who smiled and eyes began to drift.
Mayu planted a gentle kiss on Yuki's forehead and tucked her in.
"Oyasumi Yukirin.. Aishiteru..~"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The young little Mayu went out to buy some more medicine for Yuki, while she was heading home through a tunnel of Autumn trees, she passed several people along her way who stared at her with fear in their eyes, even a mother held her child closer to her just as Mayu walked passed them.
"don't look at her Hikaru."
The young child turned his head away to avoid looking at Mayu. Mayu began to let her head fall down, salty tears running down her cheeks she began to make a run to home.
Mayu was staring out into the gardens sitting on the porch.
"I don't want to see anybody's face again.."
Yuki who sat next to her sad friend, frowned as well as she saw Mayu depressed.
"Mayuyu.."
"whenever I open my eyes, all I can see are their smiles fading away."
Mayu curled into a ball and started crying.
Yuki felt bad but then she had an idea and leaned in closer to Mayu.
"In that case, look at me and nobody else!~"
Yuki said proud of her idea and began rubbing her tiny hands together.
"ayy!~"
Yuki put each of her palms on Mayu's blue eyes.
"it's a charm, from now on, I'm the only person you can see! This way Mayuyu won't have to see any more scary faces~"
After that day, Mayu and Yuki had their own secret. Mayu pretend not to see and Yuki was the only one who see her eyes.
Yuki and Mayu held hands as they walking and Mayu's eyes were closed, passing everybody and just as soon everyone was gone.
"Mayuyu it's clear now~"
Mayu opened eyes with comfort in her heart she smiled warmly at Yuki.
However, Yuki's health started to improve while Mayu's eyes started to deteriorate.
Mayu trips a little but Yuki held her hand tighter helping Mayu not to fall.
"Mayuyu??"
"Lately, it seems as if I really can see only you, everything else looks blurry to me."
Mayu rubbed her eyes and Yuki started panicking.
"Mayuyu!.."
As the Autumn wind blew, Mayu's hair swayed in the breeze and so did the orange and yellow leaves.
"it's fine Yukrin. I'm happier this way~"
Mayu smiled at Yuki, but Yuki's heart was in discontent.
Soon Mayu actually did become blind.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
During a couple of years later, Yuki had moved from the countryside to the city of Akihabara when she was just 15 years and now 18 she started studying musicals.
The young teen was happy with her new life, everything was perfect yet one thing still lingered on her mind, or I should say her heart?
Mayu who stayed behind in the countryside because she was too frail, always wrote letters to Yuki, but Yuki had stopped replying to her letters.
Yuki would constantly find something to distract her mind of Mayu, whether that was working extra hours at her part time job or going to karaoke parties with her colleagues.
While on the other side of Japan, a similar image appeared..
A small little figure with faded blue eyes, was buried by soft cushiony covers. The frail young girl's cheeks were decorated with a deep rose pink, her breathing was slow and her eyes were closed.
"Yukirin.. *coughs*.. in the late evening, as the Spring sky turns to a light peach colour, it stretches everywhere, hovering over the tall mountains.
The stars in the night sky are singing my song. carrying my thoughts, they sparkle.
Even now, I still feel nostalgic thinking about the day when I met the beautiful you, I can see the smiling cheeks of the lovely you...
Can you hear my song as it traverses the sea and crosses over the mountains?
I want to lightly and softly cross the sea of stars just to surprise you.. *coughs heavily and starts panting*"
Suddenly people started running around, trying to comfort the sick young girl, Mayu started cough out blood and her felt pain all over small body.
"her temperature is 38.9 C!! Someone get the emergency line!"
Mayu could hear loud heavy foot steps and people screaming around her, but then.. she started to imagine and remember the times she spent with Yuki, she dreamt of the moment when Yuki put the charm on her. Her lips formed a simple smile and a tear ran down her cheek, she couldn't hear anything anymore, none of the noise that surrounded her before, only Yuki's voice, and with that Mayu mumbled her silent words of love towards her before falling into an eternal sleep.
"Yukirin.. Aishiteru..~"
