Tender Moment II Open
A letter. The first one Emiko had received from her family in awhile, she had wasted no time in waiting to read it since it got to her dorm.
To our dearest Emiko:
The shrine is lonely without you, and the waterfall looks lovely this time of year. We hope you are surrounded by beautiful things as well, how are your classes? Are you making friends? Do you have anyone special in your life? We plan to send a care package soon--I know the materials you left with were a bit lacking in quantity, and we’ve been setting aside funds to provide you with what you need in your educational life. Your mother was going to add her own wishes, but she’s been in a bit of a slump lately, you know how it gets. But never doubt for a second that we all wish for your health and safety. Keep shining, our little angel.
Having not heard from her family in awhile, Emiko was hit with a wave of nostalgia and loneliness. Her family, thinking of her when she was so far away, focusing on other things--
And then the tears came.
