Maria-sama ga Miteru:Volume8 Chapter7
Joined at Just One Hand[edit]
From a distance, the light-pink flowers of the Yoshino cherry tree looked white.
Maybe that was why the fake blizzard of cherry blossoms whipped up by the spring wind looked like real snow dancing before her eyes.
There were enough petals there to give the illusion that they were blocking everything out. Since it was enough to make her lose sight of herself, she wouldn't have noticed someone else ten metres away either.
Hidden, unaware of the other's presence, the two girls stopped in that spot. Inside the cherry blossom blizzard they gradually drew closer to each other, until, having done quite enough, the wind suddenly stopped.
"Ah … "
Simultaneously, they both noticed.
Not just the hair and uniform, but also the white petals adorning the girl looking their way with a strange expression.
But anyway, how to describe this feeling?
This young, white lady – it was like seeing their own reflection in a mirror.
Sheltered from the wind by the grove of trees, the petals of the Yoshino cherry tree fell like a light rain. For a moment, the pair faced each other in silence.
Such was the first encounter between Satou Sei and Toudou Shimako.
