Sucking in a harsh breath, Miki peered up at the familiar door. Even after a year, it still looked the same. The same chipped birch surface, the same brass-coloured lock and doorknob - the sight of those alone could haunt her for many years to come. Even now, it took all of her built-in courage not to close her eyes, to let out a piercing scream and to turn on her heel and run away.

"Milady, are you alright?" Arden's soft voice pulled her out of her state of mind, effectively reminding her that she wasn't the only one waiting in the crowded hallway. Yuzuru and Shizue, as well as a couple of furniture movers, stood behind her, waiting in silence for her to give the signal.
"Perhaps it would have been better if you invited Master Tamaki or even Master Ootori?" He suggested.
Miki's eyes flickered to a downcast for a few moments. "No," She said, slowly shaking her head. Surely, the thought of her brother or Kyoya being by her side during this moment would be exceptionally reassuring, but...
"This is something I need to face on my own," She pronounced, eyes falling closed as her hammering heart drummed against her ears "I came to Japan thirteen years ago, and for thirteen years the only ones who knew of my existence within this room were you, father and grandmother. So that is why..." Lifting her head, she met the butler's anxious gaze. "That is why I want to say farewell to this room, with only the three of us." She replied, mustering a wistful smile.
