"Tri-sha, can vu take we to that vase?" (Trisha, can you take me to that place?) Yuki had asked for one thing to be done in this garden. It was a very important thing.
"Mmm. I will take you there now." Trisha smiled and pushed Yuki down the path.
Tina was curious as to what was going on, so she followed behind them. It was a 2 minute walk from where they were, but when they arrived at the place in question, Tina really began to tear up. Standing in front of her was a statue. It was of a young woman of only eighteen years of age. She had a long one piece skirt on. There were large feathered wings coming out of her back and a halo above her head. She was standing there with a flower in her hand, smelling it. The smile on her face showed just how happy she was. The girl's pretty face showed no signs of sickness or anything else. But Tina only needed one look to know who this was.
"Wary… I wade it…" (Mary…. I made it...) Yuki wanted to say more, but it was just too hard. Her tears were rolling down her cheeks as she looked at this statue. She wanted to say so much more. She wanted to tell Mary that she would do everything she can to live a life Mary never had the chance to. This statue had cost a few million to make since it was done in a hurry. But the work that was done on it was top tier.
Trisha bent over and used her shirt to help wipe Yuki's tears. She then got on her knees and bowed her head. Tina also followed suit. The three girls closed their eyes and gave a silent prayer. Under this statue was the cremated remains of Yuki's savior. A savior and a sister. Someone who gave her life to protect Yuki from all the bad things in the world so that she could make something out of herself and get out of the hell that was corrupting all those around her.
After a moment of silence, Trisha raised her head and looked at the statue: "Mary, we never got the chance to meet. But because you were there guarding Yuki like her guardian angel, I was able to meet her. Because you were there, Yuki was able to grow up strong, and now she is able to live a life without worry. I wish I could have met you and give you my thanks. I hope where ever you are in heaven that you are still looking down and watching.
"And I promise, in your place, I will be there by Yuki's side from now and forever. We already decided that our first child, when the time comes, if it is born a girl, she will be given your name. She will be named Chisaka Mary." Trisha wiped her tears and stood up, and helped Yuki wipe the tears from her eyes as well.
Tina still had her head lowered. She could not contain her emotions. She owed Mary a lot as well. The girl who gave up her life to protect her friend. It was because of this that she was able to meet such a wonderful and loveable daughter. Tina thanked Mary over and over in her heart. She hoped wherever Mary was at this time that she was happy.
After their little side detour, the three continued on to the villa. When they got to the exit of the garden, there was a small hovercart which was designed for people in wheelchairs in mind. Trisha helped Yuki on before storing the wheelchair on the back and getting on herself. Tina double checked to make sure Yuki was safely in before getting on herself and letting the cart take them to the house.
The path from the landing pad to the house was about 6 minutes if they walked. But by hovercart, it was only a 2 minute ride. The green grassy field whizzed by as they made their way down the path. When they reached the front of the house, they were met with a few A.I. maids and one single handsome male A.I. code named Anthony. He was the latest model of the male partnership for single women A.I.s. Yuki and Trisha especially got this one for Tina.
Besides the A.I.s, there was a tall man in a business suit waiting there. When he saw the hovercart come to a stop, he stepped forward to help Tina off. "Good afternoon. You must be Tina. I am sure Princess has told you this already, but I am the lawyer she hired to take care of the task of the adoption. My name is Dennis Wallace."
"Hello, Dennis, yes, I am Tina. Thank you for coming all the way out here for this." Tina extended her hand in greeting.
Dennis smiled and shook it. He then saw Trisha walking over, pushing Yuki in a wheelchair. He quickly bowed his head and greeted her. "Princess Trisha, It is good to finally meet you."
"Please don't call me Princess. I gave up my name and title." Trisha said with a frown. She knew her brother put him up to this.
"This... His highness said..." Dennis was caught between a rock and a hard place. If he did not follow Prince Greg's orders and call Trisha princess, he could very well be fired or something even worse.
Trisha sighed and decided to just let things be. "Do as you see fit..."
Dennis instantly smiled and nodded his head. "Then Princess, Princess Yuki, and Miss Tina, this way."
Yuki stared at Dennis, trying to figure out why he was calling her princess. She decided to bring this up with Greg in game the next time and have a little talk with him. She, in no way shape or form wanted to be a princess if Trisha was not one. She would only do so if Trisha took back her title.
