Capítulo 10 — Propuesta

La nieve cesó habiendo dejado un paisaje blanco completamente cubierto por la mañana. La vista era estupenda, hasta los árboles se veían diferentes cubiertos de nieve. A pesar de haber dormido la cruda, ella fue la primera en despertarse y despertar a su esposo por todo el ajetreo. Apenas vio que abría los ojos, se sentó frente a él, en su lado del futon con alegría tal que desbordaba por su cuerpo.

La nieve cesó habiendo dejado un paisaje blanco completamente cubierto por la mañana. La vista era estupenda, hasta los árboles se veían diferentes cubiertos de nieve. A pesar de haber dormido la cruda, ella fue la primera en despertarse y despertar a su esposo por todo el ajetreo. Apenas vio que abría los ojos, se sentó frente a él, en su lado del futon con alegría tal que desbordaba por su cuerpo.

—¡Dejó de nevar! ¡Podremos salir! —Exclamó entusiasmada haciendo que él sonriera— vístete, así vamos.

—Primero, deberías desayunar y alistarte tú también —le dijo señalándole la yukata que llevaba puesta.

Ella asintió y se levantó con entusiasmo buscando su ropa. Había llevado un bonito kimono, aunque con el clima, no estaba segura de que fuera lo mejor para salir. Lo pensó un momento antes de decidirse. Se habían perdido la puesta de sol y la salda también. Los fuegos artificiales por la nevada, pero, aunque había sucedido de esa manera, estaba muy contenta por todo y estaba entusiasmada por salir al templo.

Hiro estuvo seguro de que nunca antes había visto a alguien tan feliz por ir al templo el primer día del año, pero era precisamente por esas cosas que Nadeshiko le gustaba tanto. Era feliz con muy poco ¡se entusiasmaba por una nevada!

La vio salir de la habitación y se aseguró de que hubiese algo más por lo que ella tuviera que ponerse feliz.

El camino aún estaba cubierto. La ventaja es que se podía llegar caminando al templo o de lo contrario, habrían tenido que esperar a que llegaran a palear la nieve.

—Toma mi mano —le dijo extendiéndole la mano para comenzar el camino de subida.

sólo lo hizo por miedo de que se cayera que, conociéndola, era muy probable que llegara a pasar de largo en cualquier momento, sino que, además, quería guiarla a un lugar especial.
