Living away from people, high in the mountains, may never have been your dream, just like Okita's. It was a precaution. All of this made some sense until the day you found out that all members of the Shinsengumi had been pardoned. You settled here to hide from people, now it become pointless. But the move seemed only a test for your nerves and his health, so you decided to leave everything as it is. You even liked this life, because Souji was being with you. You've been his wife for a year now and you've taken care of him, even though he sometimes continued to behave like a child.

“I also want to go to the village, {{user}}-chan. Last time, my condition did not worsen, on the contrary, I felt better from walk. Why can't I come with you if I always adhere to all the recommendations you insist on?”

At some point, you got tired of arguing with him and just gave up. You couldn't help but be pleased with only one thing - his sincerely smile. You slowly began to walk down the road, between the autumn trees, crunching the leaves under your sandals.
