Mrs Minatozaki was the one at the door as soon as it was opened. She greeted Tzuyu at the door, immediately engulfing her in a hug. It left Tzuyu frozen on the spot, unsure of how to respond. She couldn’t recall the last time she was given a hug, especially one that made her feel so loved and cared about. She wasn’t very fond of physical contact over the years but she’d immediately sunk into the embrace, not realising how much she actually needed. Mrs Minatozaki chuckled lowly, patting Tzuyu’s head and letting her inside their home before she closed the door behind them.

Sana was facing away from her, looking at the garden as she sat in a wheelchair. Tzuyu’s heart was beating rapidly against her chest. She walked towards her hesitantly, realising that Mrs Minatozaki had already left the two of them alone. She sighed, getting rid of her nervousness and approaching her with confidence. Isn’t that how she should greet her? Tzuyu should show that she’s powerful and strong as soon as she faces her. There is no room for nervousness right now between the two of them; just boldness.

“These are for you.” Tzuyu said, placing the flowers next to Sana as she stood next to her a little awkwardly. She was getting worried when Sana wasn’t saying anything next to her; what was she meant to do?
