"Hey, Sai, no one else could ever see you, could they?" Hikaru rolls over to face the night sky outside his window.
"But I can," the boy whispers, holding up a hand as though he wants to hold the stars in the palm of his hand. "You're always there. Always."
How he wishes he had a physical form once more. He reaches for that outstretched hand that is no longer small against his own as it was, once upon a time. He wishes that Hikaru could feel it, that hand of his, just so that he can tell him "I am here".
[[this is a divergence, yes, following a random idea I had that Sai didn't disappear but rather, Hikaru could no longer "see" him. -dawn]]
