-Years later -
Pinocchio stood there, carving up a new toy, and placing it on the shelf. He smiled, Elisa was no more than fifteen and Bella was now with a baby with Lampwick. The couple he knew were happy together, despite him not having the love which brought his father's business so many memories, memories of pure gold. But he had his family now. Even if Sophia who died shortly after Geppetto was no longer here with them, they had each other. They had an unbreakable bond. Maybe love from a woman wasn't what Pinocchio needed right now. He was a young man now; he chose to run the business and made the same promise to Geppetto. "Don't worry about keeping it." Was the last time he heard his father ever speak, and even change through death? His father he knew was always there even if he wasn't. Jiminy said so, he said that also Crickets have their fair share here on earth and Pinocchio no longer needed him. Pinocchio wish he did need him, he missed Jiminy every day. But knew that sometimes, the people you love most are the ones that you will have the hardest of times letting go.
