I was living a lukewarm existence, letting the time simply pass me by with indifference.
I couldn't see the flowers, the wind ---the light.
Not even myself.
But when you looked up at me with those big golden eyes, it was as though I could see my own reflection there - a self I had been trying not to see.
I had decided never to look away again.
And that I would never be ashamed..-
...Of my own self, reflected in your eyes.
Back then it was you who held your hand out to me first.
It's such a nuisance..
Not for anything in the world can I let go of your hand now.
I finally feel alive, Goku.
But...
Can I really be your sun?
All this time, I didn't know. If I'd never met you, then...I never would've known such an important thing as this.
And yeah, I know-
-there's no guarantee that there's hope beyond that light we're heading toward now. You might meet with more suffering there.
...But even then, I wanted to put in everything that I have to give, just to tell you-
How happy I am to have met you-
Goku...You were the one...who reached out to me first.
-Next time, I promise.....I'll be the one to reach for you.
I'll definitely reach for you.
...Oh...You really are...
...Like the sun.
