The wedding ceremony went smoothly and joyfully, marking a beautiful beginning, but Hanamaru Hanabi couldn't stop crying.
Even during the photo-taking session afterward, she was teary-eyed, using her small hands to wipe her tears constantly.
"Alright, alright, weren't you just comforting me not to cry? Now it's you who's crying so hard." After the photos, Uesugi Sakura embraced the girl, gently patting her back.
Hanamaru Hanabi just leaned against his embrace, holding him tightly, unable to utter a single coherent word amid her sobs.
Uesugi Sakura held her for a long time, soothing her until her emotions gradually calmed down.
She looked at him with bright, glistening eyes, seemingly filled with so many things she wanted to say.
Uesugi Sakura gazed at her brows and eyes, smiling as he reached out to pinch her soft and bouncy cheek.
"From now on, you're the wife."
"Sakura-kun... will you be good to Hanabi...?"
"Haven't I said it many times? I definitely will."
