Really? Him?! Here?

-That afternoon.

Reappearing from the shadows like we had many times, I looked around the same dining table filled with both our families.

And as soon as Anna felt our presence, she left her chocolate milk and ran toward us with a bright smile on her face.

We hadn't seen her all morning because we were doing some 'chatting' on a good tree, and I knew she must have missed us.

Though I did talk with her through one of Celes's clones and told her to keep this a secret and she understood that one perfectly.

If she can keep everyone's feelings and emotions secret, then this was nothing at all for her.

She was some of the best when it came to keeping secrets.

She was good and as soon as she ran toward us; I let go of her gentle hand and caught my dear little angel.

And to both our surprise, she kissed us for practically no reason.

And I delighted in that surprise gift and kissed her back.
