This image means a lot to me so I thank  rekzar loads for letting me do this.

There is an image I've not posted openly and only a few people have seen of Kalin which below will explain a brief glimpse into the story.

It goes a little like this.

This time Korevo wasn't coming back like he always had time and time before. Tears flooded her face and she looked onward seeing him laying limp on the ground. A hard battle he fought, but it couldn't be the end this time, could it? She ran to him and held him in her arms looking for any signs of life left. With no breath, no pulse and no signs of anyone else around that she could screamm for help to, she picked up his katana laying a few feet away. Contemplation of what to do next, a million thoughts hit her in an instant. She wanted to be with him, always, like he had always done for her when she needed his most.

His blade rose to her neck and in the next moments she sat motionless. Her other hand gripped her hair to move it and with a gentle swoop her hair tumbled down to the ground. Korevo, where ever he was at this point in the afterlife, would have died for her, and if his blade went any further towards her skin she knew that she would be defiling his memory.

They still had the others back at home that she had to tell, to get his body home so that they could remember him for the loyal friend that he was and the lives that he touched.

Trezio wouldn't handle the situation well, neither would Jose. Their family Tea cafe would close for a very long time.

As months passed by Kalin knew that Korevo would have wanted life to continue on and to live the life that he dreamed for her. She took the keys from Trezio as he and Jose left town to grieve in their own way and she renamed their place "Fishies Tea Cafe" and went through a rebranding phase to help her cope so that she'd see pieces of Korevo's memory still with her.

In the coming days she hired Esaro as one of the servers and when he had learned of the story of Korevo and where he had gone he asked Kalin if before work she would take the time to cut his precious hair so that they could match together. Kalins lips pursed into a smile and she felt honoured that they could show their solidarity together in such a special way.

Thank you again  rekzar for letting me do this. I had been sitting here thinking of this story, and it would have made him proud to have seen me write anything! He also would have been honoured that you would have asked for this.

Also, I do not write well. I hate RPing so the story line that we have going on was actually written by Levi of our characters, so from this point on it'll be sadly myself trying to carry this on, but I think he'd have been happy that I tried. XD
