Kideme knew time was running out, she put as much of her love, her spirit, her spark... into their one final kiss. Oh she would never forget it either. How many girls were lucky enough to say their first real kiss was from the man they had loved their whole life? And loved them in return?

That moment she pulled back to look at him, he was glowing, and in her crazy mind, she was pretending it was because he drank a little too much phosphorous with his milk. But all silly denials aside, he was radiant in how he glowed. And Kideme was happy she could remember him in this final regard.

When he did the unthinkable and removed his own eyes and gave them to her, she gasped. The wind of the night was beginning to whisp around them, and it was the reprieve she needed to let it blow the tears from her eyes. "Never.... And wherever you go, remember that I will always love you." She kissed him again, but this time more delicately, panting slowly so that she wouldn't sulk and sob. Kideme could feel Tiatsu fading away and she took a deep breath in seeing him come away with the wind.

Finally exhaling, Kideme slowly sank to her knees, letting it all out, pressing that which she had left of her love to her chest.

"....Goodbye...."

After countless minutes of sitting there, staring at the velvet sky, Kideme finally rose and slowly turned. She absently grabbed the teapot off the table and slowly began making her way through the tea house. It was a mess that shone in the melancholy brilliance of moonlight. She was breathing slowly the whole time, the last hour playing on repeat in her mind. Kideme felt like a ghost gliding through her own home until finally she reached the door to her house and walked in. As she packed a few of her things, Tiatsu's face was burned into her mind.

She had had almost a year to say goodbye, but even still it hurt as if she'd only had half a moment's warning. But all she could do was breathe. And feel proud. Tiatsu had given her everything, and though it was hard, Kideme forced herself to smile. He had brought her happiness, and to spend her days moping would be an insult to his memory. So she just tried to breathe... But as Kideme closed her eyes, feeling herself ready to cry...she heard something...meow?

"....Tofu?"

Following that came other meows, and Kideme started to dry her tears as she saw her pets, whom she'd all assumed to have run away or get taken away the police, to appear. It was only a momentary reprieve before the tears came again when she remembered something he'd said to her....

"....   I will never be able to give you the family that I wanted to make with you..."

With a bag full of cats, a suitcase full of kimono and Tiatsu's eyes in her hands, Kideme slowly made her way to Tiatsu's home, humming a tune she always sang when she thought of him. Taking another deep breath, she let herself in and turned on the lights....
