Ultimately, as much as I would hate admit it - I've became even closer with Yukino. Now when I stand next to her, my head becomes fuzzy and my heart erratic.
Now we began to explore our dreams more freely and with some courage, I show her my dream as well.
"So pretty! What are these paper cranes for?"
"Well, I've heard that if you fold a thousand of cranes, your wish may come true."
"Huh... I wonder how many of them are here..."
"I've counted - it is 568 cranes. I've folded them myself in a dream."
"So that's where your awareness comes from."
"Maybe. I've stopped after a while and ended up just enjoying the view."
"But why did you stop?"
"I was too late. And right now, I have no wishes."
"Aww, let's fold as many as we can!"
"Wha, wait a second."
The count went up to 784 before Yukino faded out of the dream.
And now, in a bizarre way, we ended up becoming inseparable. Be it dream or reality.
But, I wonder how long will that halcyon last?
The hare of the earth, and the rabbit of the moon... Seemingly similar, yet so different.
