*Slightly long chap
[KIYOMI]
Kiyomi had been holding Sakura's hands, and the way that her Erasthai's citrus scent was filling the space between them reminded her of just what they were both feeling.
Her little princess was happy, even with the little tear streaks down her face.
Sakura looked so damn perfect and beautiful, Kiyomi wasn't even going to get tired of staring at that face. Of holding those hands that were shaking in hers. Those hands that told her why Sakura's words couldn't.
And when the mad queen of Doiwa burst into tears of joy, Kiyomi was there to hold her.
To keep her steady.
To remind her that she would never leave, regardless of what they would be up against.
To tell her that the sun and the skies and the moon were always going to be on their side, no matter how life came at them.
"I'm sorry… I'm a mess," Sakura sniffed, and Kiyomi smiled brightly at her.
