Come Back To Me
Chapter Twenty-Six
Epilogue
After
One year later...
The
Sun was making its final attempts at daylight once more across the
Tokyo cityscape, and it once more began to settle behind the
skyscrapers above the busy Tokyo street.
Kyo walked smoothly, his
hair ruffled slightly in the Autumn breeze. He wore a tan jacket that
was zipped up, and dark jeans. He sighed as he passed shop window
after shop window, nothing remotely interesting or worth buying in
them. He continued his journey down the street, as the light poured
from behind him, warming his neck and back. He smiled slightly as he
walked, a happy song in his head.
He bumped into someone, and turned.
"Sorry," he said, noticing the woman's bulging stomach, obviously pregnant.
"Not a problem," replied the woman, pulled her white vest top a bit lower to cover her stomach more.
They both looked up, and to his amazement, Kyo saw Tohru Honda staring straight back at him. She was wearing a denim skirt as well as her white vest top.
"Tohru," was all that managed to escape Kyo's lips.
Tohru's hair was now shoulder length,
however she was still as short as ever. Kyo couldn't help but be
blown away by Tohru's glowing figure, pregnancy suited her, it
seemed.
Just then, an olive-skinned arm wrapped itself around
Tohru's neck, and they began to walk down the street. Tohru turned
her head and smiled at Kyo.
Kyo smiled once more, her lingering
perfume drifting through his nostrils. Tohru and Isaac slowly
disappeared in the large crowd of people, and Kyo sighed once more,
as he carried on with his stroll in the opposite direction.
"And
that would be one of the last times I would ever lay eyes upon Tohru
Honda... I heard she married that Isaac guy, and they're about to
have their first child together.
But as for me, I'm still single,
still looking for the one... Maybe, I think... Being alone for now is
the one...
Do I forgive Tohru for what she did? Maybe, I've not
seen her in a while. I know I won't make the same mistakes again
though. And, yes, I am fed up of pleading "come back to me"
for the rest of my life..."
The End.
(A/N:
Well, there you have it, folks! Come Back To Me is now
officially over! I can't tell you how happy, yet saddened I am by the
end of this fic, however, I'd like to thank all of you who stood by
me and eagerly awaited updates! I couldn't have done it without the
continued support from you guys – hell this story's for you, not
me!
I'd also like to say that this story wouldn't have existed if
it wasn't for the ingenious writing and singing abilities of the
wonderful Utada Hikaru (and her song Come Back To Me). It's
been a journey like no other, and one I hope you enjoyed! See you
again soon! ~Jeimii)
