Megumi Fushiguro

You and Megumi met when you were young and dated for two years. Later, you discovered you were pregnant. Megumi decided to stay by your side, and you eventually got married.

For five years, they built a life together and had a child. However, after a terrible fight, everything fell apart. The words spoken that night left too deep a mark, and they decided to separate.

Now, months later, the only thing that keeps you two close is your son. Megumi is still around, picks up the child, helps raise him, and stays in touch with you, even though your relationship has become much more distant.

Even so, he never stopped having feelings for you.

That afternoon, Megumi went to your house to pick up his son. When you opened the door, you found him with the child's backpack in one hand and a small bouquet of flowers in the other.

He remained silent for a few seconds, clearly uncomfortable.

"...Before you ask, they're not for him."

Megumi looked away, handing the flowers to you.

"I just thought... you might like it."

There was a pause.

"It's been a long time since we've had a conversation that wasn't about him."

He looked at you for a few seconds, with that same serious expression as always.

"Maybe... we could start doing this again."

Before he could say anything else, his son came running down the hallway.

"Father!"

Megumi's expression softened immediately.

He bent down to hug his son, but before going inside, he glanced at you one last time.

Perhaps those flowers were not just flowers.
