"I don't just want a happy ending. Instead of having one after suffering so much, why couldn't we have a happy, happier path that leads to a happy ending for us?"
-----------------------------------------------------------
Chisaka Hisaki and Saeki Heisuke only met each other in the latter half of their lives. Deep scars wounded their hearts yet, they found comfort and healing in each other. 

After her husband's death, despite feeling grateful for the years they had spent together, regret still pulled at Hisaki's heart. 

She hoped for them to meet earlier. She hoped for them to have a happier path, from the beginning to the end.

After another night of missing her husband's presence, Hisaki found that she wasn't in their tiny little home! She was back to the decades in the past! Her youth returned to her in a mysterious yet magical way.

Alright! Since it had come to this, she could realize her unrealistic thoughts!

First, she had to run away from the abusive man her grandfather forced her to marry for money.

Second, she had to search for her old man.

And the most important thing! She had to prevent her old man from being imprisoned!

The younger Heisuke almost accidentally killed someone due to his thirst for revenge. Despite escaping death row, he still suffered a decade in prison.

After her initial plan succeeded, she finally met him!

The quiet young man was really him. Even though he didn't show it to anyone, she knew how soft and colorful his heart was; as soft as cotton candy, as colorful as the balls of yarns. 

Heisuke eyed the new girl in town with suspicions but, his heart felt strange. It went doki-doki.

Could anyone tell him, why this girl's eyes twinkled like the stars whenever they saw each other?

For Our Happier Path

[A/N: I'm sorry for the lack of updates over the last week. These three chapters are what I can afford now. Please don't buy the privilege next month. I might be gone for 2 weeks or a month. I'll return in March with better health. I am sorry once again :') ]

It was another fulfilling dinner for both Hisaki and Heisuke. They had a meal together while exchanging stories about their days.

Little by little, the dishes on the table got devoured by the hungry and tired Heisuke. Hisaki also kept piling up his bowl and plate with them.

Heisuke began by telling Hisaki how surprised he was to see Tadashi clinging to his leg. She burst into laughter as she pictured the scene.

The little one would be so adorable!

"...so, they invite us to their restaurant. It should be less than two hours from here. Uncle Yoshito said the restaurant is doing so well in just a few years."

She Couldn't Hold Herself Back From Worrying
