Well, here's the last chapter. Will Doremi's love to Kotake gone when she get back all of her memories? Or... will they're loving each other forever? Check this out in this chapter.

When the Love Grows Up

Chapter 8 – When the Memories Came Back

"Momo, Hana-chan worry about Doremi."

"Daijobu yo, Hana-chan. Hazuki-chan said that Kotake-kun was with her now."

"Demo..."

Momoko and Hana-chan talk at each other when Doremi and Kotake walked into the class, still with their hand in hand.

They said, "Ohayou."

"Doremi!" Hana-chan embraced Doremi, "Daijobu desuka? Hana-chan heard from Hazuki that you..."

"Daijobu yo, Hana-chan. I just still can't adapt myself to walk across that intersection."

"Huh, yokatta." Momoko saw Doremi and Kotake's hands, "Eh, chotto matte. Nande..."

"Uh, I've already decided." Doremi answered, "I want to go along with him."

"HEH!" yelled Momoko and Hana-chan, "Hontou ni!"

The new couples saw at each other and smiled, then said, "Hontou."

"USOU!" Momoko and Hana-chan yelled louder.

"Saa, minna, urusai." Seki-sensei walked into the class, "Asuka, Makihatayama, don't yell like that when we're going to start the subject, are you understand?"

"Hoi."

"Sore jaa, let's we start to learn."

At the lunch time, as usual, Momoko and Hana-chan talked with Hazuki, Aiko, and Onpu. Now, they were talking about Doremi and Kotake again, at the rooftop.

"Heh, hontou ni!" the trio from 6-2 yelled in disbelief after they heard the news.

"Hontou." Momoko said, "Even, they walked into the class together, hand in hand."

"Hand in hand?"

Momoko nodded.

"Geh, I think... now we're lost into a strange world." Aiko said, "I can't believe if it can happen."

"Atashi mo." Hazuki agreed, "How could Doremi-chan decide to go with... Kotake-kun?"

"Hmm..." they thought for a minute.

"We must ask Doremi-chan about it. She must explain her reasons why she wants to be Kotake-kun's girlfriend." Onpu said, "However, it's a strange decision."

"But... when will we ask her about it?" asked Momoko.

"Now, Momo-chan. Faster is better."

"Onpu-chan, I'm not sure that we can ask her now, because..."

"Is my decision strange for you all?" suddenly, Doremi came there and cut what Momoko said.

"Doremi-chan, I know that it's up to you to make a decision which is so important like this, but... why do you decided it?" asked Aiko.

"Ai-chan, I see that he really loves me, and it makes me feel touched. He'll do anything for me."

"Even so, don't you... uh, I mean..."

"About my quarrel with him? Well, I started to remember it, but it won't change my decision. This morning, I see his love to me." Doremi smiled, cut what Hazuki said, "Daijoubu yo, Hazuki-chan, minna. I think... it's the best decision for all."

"Will it happen forever? I mean... won't you ever forget about this when all of your memories are coming back?"

"Hazuki-chan, to yu koto?"

"Well, I see in some movies that when someone who lost her or his memories got back the memories, she or he would forget about all happened when she or he lost it. Will you be like that?"

"Uh, atashi..." Doremi thought for a minute and added, "I don't know, but... I'll try to remember it forever."

"I hope so, Doremi-chan. If you couldn't remember about it, it means that you had already make Kotake-kun had a blank hope." Onpu said, "I know that you always don't want to see all people around you feel sad."

"Well, I just hope that... you all can understand about my decision."

The others said, "We understand, Doremi-chan."

Since that conversation, all of things happened as usual, of course, except the fact about the relationship between Doremi and Kotake.

A month after the accident, Kotake and all of the players in Misora elementary school's soccer team had a match with another school's soccer team. The match was at Misora elementary, and Doremi watched it to give support to Kotake.

The other ojamajos didn't watch it, as they should work in Maho-dou.

"Kotake, ganbatte ne." Doremi said, "I know you can do it."

"Yosh, ganbarimasu yo, Doremi." Kotake said, "I'll do my best just for you."

They saw at each other and smiled, then Kotake walked into the soccer field. Doremi sat down on the front row of the stand.

The match had started. At the first round, Kotake made three great goals.

The another team couldn't accept if they might be lose in this match, so they thought to do some cheat at the second round.

At the rest time, Kotake walked to Doremi.

"Kotake, sugoi!" Doremi smiled, "You make many goals in this match. I'm proud of you."

"It's because of you. Because you are here and give me your support, so that's why... I can do it." Kotake saw that the match would start again, so he walked back to the soccer field, "Sore jaa, I promise that we'll win now."

Doremi nodded, "I trust you."

The enemy of the Misora's team saw them, and they thought something bad. They planned something bad, and they were sure if their plan could make them win.

Fortunately, until the match was almost over, they didn't have chance to do the plan.

Two minutes before the match was over, unluckily, they did their plan. Their captain 'passed the ball over', but he kicked it too fast. The ball 'flew' to the stand, then hit Doremi's head. She screamed in pain.

She didn't get any injuries, but it was enough to make her fainted.

"Ah, Doremi!" Kotake ran to the stand, "Wake up!"

He saw the enemy's captain, "Baka! Why do you kick the ball to the supporter? It's so dangerous, you know!"

Then, the match was over. Kotake and his team won the match, but it didn't enough to make Kotake happy now. He would be happier if Doremi woke up.

When he wanted to bring her to the Student Health Unit, she opened her eyes.

"Ah, Kotake?" Doremi stood up, "Where's Poppu? Is she okay now? Why are we here now? I remember that a car hit me and... or..."

"Eh, you remember about that accident?" Kotake asked, "Well, I think... that's good. You remember about the accident which happened a month ago."

"A month ago? I think... it happened several minutes ago."

Kotake knew that Doremi got back all of her memories because of the ball incident, and he thought that she would forget that he was her boyfriend now, so he walked avoid her and said, "Yokatta. Now, you get back all of your memories, and it means... you don't need me anymore."

"Eh? Kotake, to yu koto..." Doremi tried to find out what Kotake means, then she remembered about what happened during this month, so she said, "Eh, chotto matte, Kotake."

"We don't need to talk anymore."

"No. We need to talk. Now, I remember about everything."

"I know. That's why, I say that..."

"This month is so amazing."

"What?" Kotake didn't understand, "You still..."

"Yes." Doremi smiled, "Now I know that what you said to Hana-chan about your reason to tease me during this three years isn't the real reason."

"Chotto! Makihatayama told you about her conversation with me in Kyoto?"

Doremi nodded, "She told me."

"Well, but it makes me want to ask you something?"

"What is it?"

"Makihatayama said that you're the one who put a frog in my desk drawer four years ago. Is it true?"

"Uh, well... yes. It's me." Doremi said, "Gomen ne, Kotake. I don't tell you about it. I didn't mean to do that. I just moved the frog from Hazuki-chan's desk drawer. I don't know... how could the frog is in our class. I really don't know."

"Okay, I understand." Kotake hold Doremi's hands, "I think, it's better if we tell all of your best friends that you get back all of your memories."

"Yosh, let's we go to Maho-dou."

On the way to Maho-dou, Kotake asked, "So, Doremi... now we still..."

"Mochiron yo, Kotake."

"Uh, hontou ni?"

"Hontou."

"Do you really love me?"

"Uh, sore wa..."

"Sore wa?"

"I'll answer it if you can run faster than me to Maho-dou." Doremi ran, "Who's the later, will be the rotten egg!"

"Chotto!" Kotake laughed and ran, "I need your answer, not your challenge."

"Jaa, doushite? Why do you ask it if you have already know the answer?"

"I just want to make sure about your answer. I don't want if you change it."

"I won't ever change it."

"Hontou ni?"

"Eh, hontou."

"Yakusoku ne?"

"Yakusoku da yo."

At Maho-dou, after they explained everything and Kotake left there, Doremi-tachi continued their conversation.

"Well, I think... I come late today, right? I come when no one customers here." Doremi said.

"Daijoubu yo, Doremi-chan. We understand that you must give your support to Kotake-kun." Hazuki said, "Even so, is it true if now you... really love him?"

"Mochiron yo. Hontou ni aishiteru yo. Now I know that the true love is a love which feel by both of the couple."

"Honma na?" asked Aiko.

"Honma Honma."

"Jaa, how if someday... we meet Akatsuki-kun again?" asked Onpu, "Don't you change your mind?"

"Chotto, Onpu-chan. Nande..."

"Well, I just want to ask. Is it wrong?"

"Uh, no, I just feel surprised that you can ask it."

"So, what's your answer?"

"Hmm, sore wa... na-i-sho!"

"Doremi-chan!" they laughed together.

"Sou ye ba, onee-chan, I wonder if you can walk across the intersection with no hurts in your head." Pop said, "In this month, you always felt hurt."

"I think so. I think... I won't ever feel hurt in my head anymore."

"We hope so, Doremi-chan." Momoko said.
