"Can I co see you?"
"I also really want to see you."
He also recalled their forgotten promise, made just the day before the cot. The connection was severed, and all information was lost. In despair, his mories gradually blurred until he completely lost them.
With his mory clear, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. "This is quite coincidental."
"Since things have co to this, even if you don't say it, I will bring her back, including Itomori Town," he promised.
The butterfly continued to flap, asking if he needed guidance.
Ren waved his hand. "No need. Mitsuha should have just returned to three years ago. I'll go find her directly."
On the train to Itomori, Mitsuha, with her long hair disheveled, sat dejectedly. She had returned to three years ago from three years later, having co to see him but failed. She still hoped to see him next ti.
"Mitsuha, I've co to see you." A familiar voice ca from beside her ear—a voice that could only co from the person she had swapped bodies with. She imdiately looked up. The mont she did, her movents froze. That familiar figure was right in front of her.
"Ren-kun… I… miss you so much…" Tears involuntarily welled up, and she didn't care as they stread down her cheeks.
A mont beca eternity. Everyone on the train disappeared; only the two of them gazed at each other. He actively reached out, took out a red hair tie, and personally tied her hair.
She felt his warm breath up close. She didn't know why, but facing him now, she felt a sense of being worlds apart. And she couldn't help but blurt out such embarrassing words.
He wasn't strange to it; her state was tangled by ti travel. He gently tied her hair, then embraced her and sincerely apologized. "I'm sorry, Mitsuha. I'm late."
"Ren-kun… Can you tell what happened?" she was not a fool.
He gazed into her eyes. "Mitsuha, you are from three years ago, and I am from three years later."
"Three years…" The simple words made her understand. She reached out and gently stroked his more mature face, a faint smile on her lips. "Indeed, you've beco more resolute." Just seeing him, she thought he was doing well. This selfless affection made him feel even more heartache.
"Ren-kun, can you tell how I died?" she tilted her head.
After a brief silence, he gave a bitter smile. "I really can't hide anything from you. A fragnted cot fell on Itomori Town."
"Cot?" she rembered. "It's today…" Her eyes lowered. So this was the day she parted ways with him. An unwillingness rose in her heart. They had just t after so much effort, only to say goodbye forever.
In pain, she leaned forward. The setting sun shone through the window. The beautiful scene of their kiss was frozen. This kiss was not sweet; her heart remained bitter. He, however, savored the bitter tears that stread down her cheeks.
After they parted, she forced a smile. "Ren-kun, this is a confession before goodbye. I've always wanted to tell you: I love you, forever."
She had prepared for a farewell, but it did not co. Instead, he pulled her into his embrace. "Goodbye? Are you leaving ?"
"Huh? No! I want to be with you forever! But…" Her gaze dimd. She knew she would die today.
"Since we're going to be together forever, we must keep our word." He disregarded her emotions and lightly snapped his fingers.
"Snap!" Instantly, the environnt shifted. She found herself back in Itomori.
"What… what's going on?"
He chuckled. "Mitsuha, I didn't cross ti to say goodbye, but to change the past."
The power of ti fluctuated. The scene before her eyes changed rapidly. Dusk turned into a starlit night. And in the sky, a cot with a blue tail streaked across.
"A cot!" her eyes widened. Next, it would split, and one fragnt would head towards Itomori. It really happened.
"Let everything change and end here." Ren gently raised his hand. A pitch-black crack in space swallowed the falling fragnt.
Following that was the power of ti affecting the entire world. With his Supre Uniqueness, even if he ca three years ago, only one of him would exist. On this basis, it was too easy to accomplish the change.
