Davi couldn’t explain how she felt as she gazed quietly at this house. This gray house was where she first met Sei, the place where they both made lots of memories together. This used to be the only safe haven for Sei and everything about this house was just so nostalgic that Davi felt her heart palpitating just by looking at it.
This house, which she left five years ago, was still the most memorable and most special place to her. It didn’t really change. The familiar and nostalgic colors, even the plants she planted before, were still there. It was as if the house was frozen in time and remained untouched since the day she left.
Looking at it, Davi couldn’t explain the mix of emotions in her heart. The memories started flashing across her mind. Both the happy and sad moments were appearing like a movie in her head.
Time passed and Davi finally moved from her spot. She slowly walked towards the entrance and as soon as she stepped under it, she remembered that night when she first set foot into this place. Back then, she felt a chilling feeling but now, because of happy memories she had while she lived here, she felt like she was entering a mysterious place that may bring her into a fantasy land.
Davi was still dressed in the white elegant dress she wore to the Mizuhara’s banquet.
Thus, when she slowly stepped through the pathway, her white dress brushed the ground lightly and she looked just like a fairy marching towards an abandoned colorless castle. Her dress was glowing as the moonlight kissed it and the view was just so magical. Anyone who was watching her at that moment would have thought they were looking at an ethereal goddess walking on earth.
When Davi finally reached the huge door, she stopped and when her hand touched the doorknob, her heart suddenly started racing. For some reason, Davi felt like she was suddenly in a treasure hunt about to uncover a certain mysterious treasure. She felt excited, curious and nervous and she couldn’t help but hold her breath as she slowly pushed the door open.
Holding her breath, the door creaked open and what appeared before her eyes was a large, dark yet familiar living room. The silver chandelier was reflecting the moonlight and the silence and darkness enveloped everything. The view was breathtakingly gorgeous but also a bit chilly.
Looking at it, Davi started to wonder if Sei had abandoned this house that day she disappeared. However, the sofa and other furniture weren’t covered with white sheets and even though the house felt like nobody lived there for years, it didn’t feel like it was neglected.
Just as Davi was busy talking to herself in her mind, a candle suddenly lit up just before her. She gasped in surprised and her eyes widened. The candles and little ball of lights lit up one after another creating a romantic pathway.
Seeing this, Davi could only stare in awe. The pathway immediately remind her of the scene when she confessed to Sei and she gasped. She covered her mouth with her palm and her heart started beating wildly as ever.
All of a sudden, a little boy appeared at the end of the path. He slowly walked towards her, looking very serious.
Davi’s heart almost stopped as soon as she saw her dearest son, dressed in a little tuxedo, looking like a little gentleman, walking closer to her.
Little Shin was so handsome that Davi almost ran to meet him so that she could squeeze him with a big hug. However, Davi stayed where she was because she enjoyed watching her son marching like the prince that he was. She had a big smile on her face as she waited for him patiently.
When little Shin finally stopped one meter away from her, Davi bent her knee to hug him but the little boy stopped her by suddenly holding out the hands he’d been hiding behind his back as he walked down.
When Davi saw him holding out 3 stems of roses, which meant, ’I love you’, her heart fluttered. She slowly accepted the flowers from her son but before she could say a word to him, Little Shin suddenly ran away, leaving Davi confused.
She then slowly stepped forward with the roses in her hand. She wanted to chase her son, however, something caught her attention and she covered her mouth again with her hands in shocked surprise.
Photos were hanging along the pathway and when she looked at them, she couldn’t help but feel her eyes getting blurry.
The first photo she saw was of her and Sei wearing bunny couple masks as they held each other’s hands. Davi knew in one glance that this was a photo from their first ever date at Diamond city amusement park.
Seeing this, Davi couldn’t help but reminisce about the past, about how cold Sei was back then and how she struggled with how to seduce him. Her heart was so full of happiness that she wanted to cry. She then stepped towards the next photo and this one was of Sei carrying her in his arms looking like they were survivors of a certain zombie apocalypse. Seeing it, Davi couldn’t help but chuckle. She didn’t know that they looked like this back then and they looked so cute together even then.
Like a kitten getting distracted and entertained by a certain lovely butterfly, Davi continued stepping towards the other photos with a mixture of emotions in her eyes. She felt happy, grateful and sad at the same time. She was happy because she remembered all the feelings she had when these photos were taken, sad that they had missed out on five years of being together and grateful that she met and was able to spend time with Sei back then and now.
When she saw the next photo of her planting a peck on Sei’s cheek, Davi went a little pink as she thought about how she gathered her courage to do this. This was the first time she kissed Sei, performing her kiss and run strategy.
Davi was so happy. Never did she imagine that Sei had all these photos of them. Who took these photos of them, anyway? Did Sei have someone documenting each progress they made in their relationship?
