She must’ve been 22 years old now.
Admittedly, this days morning, Zack didn’t even remember what day it was, how many months had passed since the day he escaped from lab, but one thing for sure ‘nd this couldn’t leave outta his head… For four year he had been trapped!!
She must’ve been 22 years old now.
How does she look now? More beautiful? Sure…!! And hey, is she still wearing that ribbon? It must’ve been pale now, he better bought the new one. No no no, it wasn’t him who like repetitive things—let’s believe she probably had replaced it with a prettier one ‘nd he’d like it whatever the color ‘cause gazing her face in nonstop wouldn’t make him bored but would raise his affection even more.
Then it must be different gift, must be not expensive but still worth a lot… guess what? When they were young—damn, FOUR YEARS AGO—she once told him, she never had much toys, and that she didn’t really need them. Like Zack believe it…!! He knew so well, despite her own words, she also always enjoyed fancy things like cute wagon and other stuffs normal teenagers did.
She must’ve been 22 years old now.
Not a teenager anymore, neither was him. Does she still like fancy girl thing? Wait, not ‘bout that. Being grown and mature, is she now brave enough? To go t’ upper plate? T’ see the sky by herself?
She once said, she felt safe with him. Yes, he’s a SOLDIER—First class; monster is just a cinch. But he’s not by her side for this damn fuck four years so who’s protecting her? Tseng? Could he still trust the turkboss as how Shin-Ra now ordered army and even the Turks t’ chase and capture him? And speakin’ of attacking the church, Angeal copy’s now gone too!!
Let’s hope… she must be strong enough now ‘nd can fight by herself. C’mon, she had been living in the slum for so long!! A soft weapon would suit her. Not that it can’t hurt you, but thinkin’ of her nature; it was a weapon that wouldn’t spread blood by slicing your skin or shoothing the bullet—No!! Staff… yes, staff. Not made of wood—it could be cracked easily, but metal staff!
Is that a good news or a bad news that a sense of man would naturally have need t’ protect them? But, she had her own self and he’d let her be independent woman.
She must’ve been 22 years old now.
Too late t’congratulate her birthday—four times, huh?— but never too late t’ remember it all, t’ remember how he still cared enough of her, never changed, or perhaps become deeper—he had no idea ‘bout this.
The matter… All that matter at this moment was that he had determination t’ come home now, no wasting time anymore. Whatever happens as long as he had tried that hard with all his faithful heart, No even thinkin’ what if he brought trouble to her. He’d even invite the monitoring Cetra t’ escape and run away from Shin-Ra too. He won’t think for later. He won’t think if she maybe had moved on and found new boyfriend—she deserved it.
But God will always knew, that he never leave her, he’d never let her go. Just meet her now!! Or not at all!! That’s his final excuse.
She must’ve been 22 years old now.
He whistled now—all he can do since he knew how awful his melody if he had t’ sing a happy birthday song. Not match in time, so it’s just a single word.
