Was this the end? Was this where we draw the curtain on this charade and call it game over? Has this endless cat and mouse game come to a close… and I just happened to be the mouse?

Taking a deep breath I breathed in slowly, ranging how long I had before this ended.

"You should have minded your own business."

And the gun fired off.

"Neh, Natsume?"

"What?"

"Do you believe… in Angels?"

"No… I don't."

"Moe, couldn't you have said something cheesy like: 'Yes, since you are my angel.'"

"…"

"…"

…

"Don't give me that look!"

"Tch, I was stupefied by how corny that line was."

"Well sorry!"

…

"Do you?"

"Do I…?"

"Believe?"

"Yes, I believe in many things. Angels just happen to be in my top three list of beliefs!"

"Then… that's good enough for me."

"Really? … So you do believe?"

"No… but you can believe for the both of us."

"Hehe. Alight! I'll pray for the both of us then!"

That was the last night Mikan and I were together.

Our last discussion…

Our last kiss.
