thirty six (alt end)

a bright sunny day, the clouds decorating the light blue sky as the pretty pink cherry blossoms fell from the tree and land on the hard ground so delicately. guests coming into the hall with excitement and pure happiness as the room was filled with chit-chats from one side to the other. 


he looked at the full length mirror infront of him as he loosened his tie slightly. the lilac-haired male clicked his tongue, stopping his friend from doing much damage to his neat black suit. 


"but its suffocating me!" he complained, groaning.


"then go wear your casual clothing on your wedding, go ahead i'll wait." mitsuya responded, folding his arms together as he eyed his friend that was going to be a husband.


the black-haired with an undercut chuckled from behind as he enters the room with the others. as they went in, the room became a frenzied almost so quickly. while they were loud, the girls in the other room tried their best to calm the bride as she cries.


"there there, aiichiro. im sure everything will be fine." hinata calmly spoke as she stroke the bride's back while emma and yuzuha wipe the ruined make-up away as nana and yashiro try fixing it. 


"i can't. what if i trip while walking down the aisle? i'll just embarrassed myself." she continues to sob. the five other sighed at how frustrating their friend was. 


it took quite awhile for her to calm herself. emma puts on the long white wedding veil on the bride, who has been doing breathing techniques to not panic much like earlier. nana had to get out as her lover had already arrive at the entrance and she didn't want her to wait too long.


"still couldn't believe he proposed to me and that father openly accepts it." she said, fidgeting with her fingers as a way to stay calm.


"atleast your dad approves of him, it just shows that he finally knew how great baji is treating you." emma responded, fixing the veil to make it look neat. 


the door swung open and revealed hakkai who only had half of his face appearing behind the door. all of them immediately turn to look at him. he told them that it was time for the ceremony, to which aiichiro froze on spot in nervousness.


finally, it started as slow orchestra music plays in the background and everyone turned their heads to the door that was going to smoothly swing open for that is where she will appear in all white.


as aiichiro walks in, everyone was in awe at such beauty as her presence brightens up the mood of the atmosphere. eyes following her as she repeatedly told herself not to trip. baji did the same as the others but his eyes shine brighter than theirs. the beautiful white top that was embroidered with detailed flowers hugging her torso so nicely and the three-layered gown that flows so smoothly everytime she takes a step. 


it felt enchanting, its as if she was a beautiful princess. and she was, for the entire day that spotlight will only shine on the two. 


then she was finally standing infront of her soon-to-be-husband as the two swore their lifes that they will stick together till death do its part. he grabs onto her waist and her hands around his shoulders, the just-married couple pulled themselves closer to each other and celebrate the wonderful day with a loving kiss that had everyone clapping their hands and cheer on for their unbeatable love. 



two years had passed since that day. in the office, she groaned as she flips every paper to sign one after the other. her assistant helping her to organize them in files, to which she would send them back into the executives that will check before submitting it. 


her hands starts to tremble from the amount of caffeine she drank. her assistant starts to feel concern for the manager's health. walking behind her while grabbing the woman's blazer, she told aiichiro to head home.


"are you sure? there is quite a number of paperwork to organize-"


"don't worry, hirose-san. you are a mother of two, you should be spending time with them now and not do work." the kind assistant responded, flashing a reassured smile. the manager nodded as she bids her assistant goodbye.


the woman entered the lift and pressed the ground floor button. waiting to reach, she felt her phone buzzing and so she quickly answered when she sees her husband's caller id.


"keisuke, whats wrong?" she wonders as the sound of her children playing toys was heard from the other line.


"heard you finished work so we're coming to pick you up. am i right, you two?"


aiichiro smiles at the voices of her loved ones. she waited infront of the entrance until a familiar car stopped infront of her. she immediately got in and was greeted with hugs from the two kids. the family drove off for dinner after picking her up from work.


being a manager of a well-known company that everyone has high expectations for from every corner of japan is tough work. but getting back home to see three of her treasures smiling and giving her such thoughtful words made her forget that she has an entire company piling up on her shoulders, it was as if those heavy work were blown away from the love she receives from baji keisuke and their two little ones.


FIN.
