You're right, it does! But mint, well...you'll see.

[There's a reason he chose mint in this story, after all.]

Months pass, and months turn into years. The girl eventually inherits the shop from her mother, and she continues to serve her regular visitors. But in all that time, not once did she see that boy she had fallen in love with.

Then one summer day, the girl was out in her gardens, picking various herbs and seeds to put up for sale in her shop. As she stopped by the mint plants, she picked a leaf and inhaled the scent, letting her thoughts drift to the memories of that boy. She missed him dearly, and she wished that she could see him again, just one more time.

"I'm here," a familiar voice called, and the girl could've sworn that she had imagined that voice. But when she opened her eyes, she saw the boy- now an accomplished doctor- standing there in her garden. And in his hands was the bundle of mint she had given him all those years ago.

[And there's the ending there, a much happier one than 'they never saw each other again.' It's a little plain, kinda predictable, but Shiro isn't exactly that creative of a person. He tried his best though.]
