Capítulo 73: Vows

Dan chuckled as he saw her reaction. Then he tilted his head a bit and gave her a warm smile.

He cleared his throat and began speaking. "Midori Xiu, I once believed that the universe conspired for us to meet more than seven years ago. I could still remember the taste of the miso soup from your bento like it was yesterday. However, when I lost you six years ago, I wondered how I offended the universe because my world crumbled." He sniffed, fighting his tears as he tried to continue. "All the time I spend looking for you, longing for you...I was made to believe that they were all in vain. However, as I laid my eyes on you again several weeks back, I knew that every second I had to endure without you by my side is all worth it."

Midori was smiling brightly, but tears start to well up in her eyes. Some guests were also affected.
