The twin fruit of the cherry blossom princess Zoro FF

Chapter 23

While Yukiji waited for her weapon, she had sat down on the deck and leaned against a wall. She had played with the sind and created some cherry blossoms, which Chopper was immediately attracted to.

He ran after the blossoms full of joy, which made Yukiji move back and forth and smile. This little guy was pretty easy to impress. His cheerful and childlike laughter rang out, which the cherry blossoms caught. They just couldn't make words out of it that could be given to anyone.

"One more time! One more time!" Chopper shouted, jumping around on the deck. Yukiji, who had finished her ability, tilted her head a little.

"Tell me, Chopper. What is it with you and these flowers?" she asked him, looking slightly sad. Slowly and with his head lowered, Chopper plodded towards her and sat down next to the pink-haired girl.

"You...remind me of Doctor Bader..." he murmured softly. A name Yukiji didn't recognize and looked down at him. "His dream was to make the cherry blossoms grow in my homeland!" he beamed and began to tell the whole story.

Yukiji had listened silently to the reindeer who had been cast out by his family and had finally come to this bathing man. He didn't really seem to be a real doctor. However, he always made an effort and accepted Chopper as he was.

Yukiji could understand his feelings when someone you cared about had to die. She had experienced this feeling twice. However, Yukiji was happy when Chopper was allowed to study with Doctorine and was now a talented doctor.

"I see, that's why you're happy about the flowers." Yukiji said, holding her hand out slightly in front of her. She triggered quite a few feelings in Chopper.

"I...think they're beautiful. Sorry...if I'm annoying you...", Chopper mumbled quietly. Actually, he had nothing to apologize for. Every person, every animal had something they found beautiful. "Come on, you're not bugging me about it."

A short silence fell between them, from which Yukiji realized that Chopper wasn't really feeling well right now. It was probably due to his past. He had a hard time trusting anyone.

"I like your blue nose, by the way." Yukiji smiled and looked at him with wide eyes. "You really do!?" Chopper asked loudly and turned completely red in the face. So he liked compliments and just couldn't handle them. "Ehehehe." he started to laugh nervously, which was really cute.

"Yes." Yukiji smirked and observed his behavior a little further. In her opinion, Chopper could become a very good friend for her. And the way he was acting right now, it could be the same for him.

"I...have...never...been...told...that...people...like...my...blue nose." Chopper grinned sheepishly and kept his distance. Cute.

Yukiji laughed softly and lifted her hand to hold it over Chopper. He flinched at this moment and narrowed his eyes. Here he was acting scared, which he didn't have to be.

Shortly afterwards, Chopper, who had opened his eyes in surprise, sneezed and they began to shine as a few cherry blossoms fell on his face. A small shower of cherry blossoms, and just for him.
