The beach was silent, illuminated by the moon and the gentle sound of the sea. Rintaro was sitting beside her when he looked at her, as fireworks lit up the sky. It wasn't his style, but since meeting her, many things had changed. He had fallen in love without realizing it: in her laughter, in her measured silences, in how she made him feel without having to prove anything. She had taught him to let go, to feel without fear.

When the sky burst into color, he didn't say much. But everything was in his eyes:

"I like you... I like you a lot..."

These months they had known each other had given him the chance to realize how incredible you were and how important you were in his life. He loved you, he wanted you by his side forever.
