-In contrast to Sakura's fear, May's own shifted into something softer, all edges gone, only warmth and her admiration remaining, as honest a smile as she'd ever given the other girl, meeting her eye to eye as she set the fork down. This was it. It was now... or never.-

You ain't gotta make a face like that, Sakura. You did do something, but it's probably the greatest thing that's ever happened to me...

I can't say when it began. When you bought me ice cream when I was about ready to let myself drown in the ocean... when we met by chance at the shelter, and I could see how tired your eyes were, and I wanted only to return the favor...

Waking up every morning, hearing your voice, knowing it was a sign I was gonna have a good day, no matter what happened, so long as I still had that voice, that face to see day after day.

Holding you when you cried. Laughing with you when you told a joke. The time I've been with you, even if it's been relatively short, has been the greatest treasure.

... When I felt like it might all go away, that there was a possibility of a world without you to share it with...

... Remember, at your birthday party, you said I'd find the 'right person' someday, and I said I already had?
