Aerith looked at the young women and nodded her head with a weak smile, "That's right....the wagons, wearing this pink dress, and the pink ribbon that he bought me." Aerith began to fiddle with her ribbon with a weak smile on her lips because it was the first gift that anyone other than her adopted mother has ever given her. Aerith promised him never to take it off and she's been keeping that promise for years now even when he broke his promise to her.
Looking at the young women, Aerith listened to her story about the ex-boyfriend, but she couldn't help give a sigh. "...at least....you were able to let him go....I still love him even after all these years. I don't think I'll ever get over him." explained Aerith with her gaze on her boots. When Lightening asked about the boyfriend, Aerith's eyes began to lightly burn and she felt an unwelcome warmth around her cheeks. Clearing her throat, Aerith simply said, "I don't know what happened. He left on a mission to Nibelheim and I never heard back from him." Sadly looking at Lightening with a fake smile, she explained, "I think...he found another women....and left with her. I must have bored him....after all...he was a lady's man....that man loved women...." Biting her bottom lip, Aerith turned away from Lighening, so she wouldn't notice that she was still deeply hurt about it.
Turning to Lightening with a small smile, she politely shook her head and said, "No, thank you. I'm fine..." Grabbing the wagon again, Aerith gave her an apologetic look, "I'm sorry, but we need to get going. The flowers want me to tend to them before I go to sleep." And without thinking Aerith began to pull the wagon with all her strength, but it was painful. The flower wagon was too heavy by herself, but she kept pulling, so the pain of her hands could distract her from thinking about him.
