For The Love of Ceres (Jan. 31, 2004)
Chapter 1
Aya slightly opened her eyes when she heard a soft knock on the door. The room light was dim and the air conditioner was sounding awfully loud. There was a faint blue by the windowsill, perhaps the reflection of the moonlight to the dark blue painting, given by Yuuhi on her 18th birthday, hanging on the wall. Aya felt a twinge of pain on her right arm, as she twisted carefully on her bed.
You will never see Tooya again, Aya, he is dead. Dead. Dead.
Words echoed on her head, as she closed her eyes again, trying to sleep some more. It was only two hours from midnight and she couldn’t keep herself from dreaming Tooya’s death.
He is dead. He is dead. He is dead.

“Aya?” Knock. “Aya, are you awake?” Suzumi twisted the doorknob and opened the door a little.
“Aya,”
Aya was lying on the floor, her belly - naked and her feet - almost hanging, still on the bed.
“What are you doing down there?” Suzumi asked. She could hear Aya’s sobs, desperate and excruciating. “What is it? Tell me what’s bothering you?”
Aya shook her head. “Ceres.”
Suzumi was alerted, hearing the name of their dear tennyo.
“Ceres is still in me.”

Meanwhile, Yuuhi was tending the garden, which overlooks the fine sand on the beach. They moved to the North, away from the Capital, demanding for the peaceful realm.
Yuuhi glanced over his shoulder to see Aya near the doorway, sitting on the tatami matted floor, drinking a cup of tea. He silently examined Aya’s blank facial expression. Yuuhi moved towards Aya and sat beside her, who didn’t seem to notice Yuuhi’s presence.
That look.. it seemed familiar. Yuuhi thought for a moment, still looking intently at the seemingly fragile doll next to him.
“You’re still depressed with Tooya’s sudden goodbye, are you?” Yuuhi asked Aya, placing his arm on her shoulders.
Aya turned to face him, her gestures slow, and looked at him straight in the eyes. Her face was so gloomy, and her eyes were swimming with unwanted tears. And suddenly, she hugged him, somewhat vicious, and her tears fell involuntarily. She still didn’t say anything. Yuuhi could only hear her hushed cry and muffled waves of despair.
“It’s been months, Aya. Tooya is not the only person who loves you. Kyu loves you. Suzumi-san loves you. And me, I’m still here, Aya-chan.”
Finally, Aya spoke – too soft that Yuuhi could barely hear her. Yuuhi adjusted his head so that Aya could speak directly next to his ear.
“I loved him too much, Yuu-chan. I don’t know what I did wrong that made him leave me like this. Yuu-chan, please hug me. Just please hug me tight and never let me go. I feel so alone.”
Yuuhi didn’t know how to take Aya’s pleas. He didn’t know whether he should feel happy or not.
Am I just a substitute?
