Really. Do you remember the year that I caught the flu right at the beginning of summer? Well, I was supposed to graduate that weekend. I'd been looking forward to that day all year - I couldn't wait to hear them call my name. To see all my friends, and my love, walk on that stage and end that chapter of our lives. [She cups her hand over her face to hide the flush creeping over her cheeks.] I cried that whole weekend. It was a real sight when they came to see me the next day! [She sighs and lowers her hand.]
I know this situation is a little more complicated than what I went through - though I promise you that you didn't make your father sad - but I definitely understand the feeling of not being able to share those memories with the people you care about. Nono, if there's one thing you take away from this, just remember that one day can't compare with the years of memories you've already made with your friends - with Jude - and the years that are still to come. A part of me wishes I had the chance to celebrate that day with everyone, but I know in my heart that the time I've spent with them, and with you, and Jude, and Minato, more than make up for what I missed out on back then. [She covers her face, again and chuckles softly.]
Heh, I'm sorry. I'm rambling. Your Aunt Vivi must sound like such an old lady, huh?
[Ayano sniffles and scoots forward, stretching across enough to give Violet a big hug. If this were a cool comic book, Violet would actually be Ayano from the future. Except like...she's white and Ayano isn't. Well there goes that. Either way, Violet is a cool role model that she's glad understands her.]

Thank you...That makes me feel a lot better...
And we're two of a kind!

I'm glad you're feeling better. None of us are going anywhere, so don't you worry.

[Ayano musters up a grin.]
So...that's pretty cool! I can show up late and be like...Special. I can be the cool older girl...

[Violet gives a relieved sigh and gently ruffles Ayano's hair.]
I'm happy that you're keeping your chin up. And I'm glad you stopped by. To be honest, it's been feeling a little lonely here lately...
no subject
You keep your chin up too...He'll be back before you know it...
[And then pulls her head back a bit to look at her.]
You're willing to go through a lot for love...It's so romantic...
