[If that voice, clear and light like a fresh summer breeze even in the dead of winter (if it can be called that in Marina), isn't familiar enough, the warm features of the smiling face beaming at everyone else, is. Shock is the first thing to register openly upon Yuuki's face, alarm lighting her eyes as the breath catches in her throat.
She doesn't even realize she was gone, does she...? That's good though, at least. One small lump sitting deep in her stomach unties, though it leaves behind others. At the very least this means her mother will remember. She swallows the brimming emotion that works to choke her. Just like before (not even once, but twice) her mother could disappear again at any moment. If the time they have together is to be cherished and made to count, then silence isn't the key.
Even so, if she sounds a little overwhelmed with emotion, it can't be helped.]
