Jaakuna agreed with Emiri. After the entire day that they had, both good and bad parts, perhaps heading back would indeed be the best thing for them to do. Besides, the walk back would do the both of them good. So, as Emiri would take his hand, they would exit her old house and head back the way they came. In the amount of ten minutes and about six hundred paces, they found themselves in the middle class district, still hand-in-hand. Jaakuna was smiling and it seemed she was too. [b]"You know, despite what happened with those two men, I'm really glad we took this walk, and I'm really glad you showed me your old house." [/b]Jaakuna said as he turned his head and [url=http://img1.ak.crunchyroll.com/i/spire3/05042008/2/b/1/f/2b1fe0a11b79b0_full.jpg]smiled[/url] to her. He would then look to the sky. [b]"Maybe someday, when things are better, you and I can visit my old house."[/b] Jaakuna said as a single tear formed in his eye. He then began looking back ahead of him.

Oh boy, here it was. Savayna was asked the big question. Of course, she expected it. Grant was probably getting angry and he just wanted to know. Savayna didn't know how to respond to that. She wanted to tell him exactly what was going on, oh the gods she wanted to, but how could she put it into words? She had been thinking how she could admit it to him in a way that wouldn't come out corny or anything of the sort. Even now, when she looked at him, she couldn't form the words.[b] "Well, um, you see.."[/b] She began, knowing she just had to spit it out. [b]"I'm finding myself, I mean..."[/b]She continued, but how could she spit it out. [i]OH JUST TELL HIM![/i] Her inner-self was screaming at her.[b] "I LIKE YOU A LOT!"[/b] She blurted, but once she did, her face became redder than a plump tomato. [i]OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD![/I] She couldn't believe she said it and even worse, she said it so loud that people were looking at her. [i]Kill me now.[/i]

As Wesley looked in shock, he could only imagine the glee that Nadeline was feeling right now.[b] "Well, it seems that we have our answer."[/b] He whispered quietly to Nadeline.
