It had taken a very long time and a lot of effort to reach the point that Niro and Rina were at. And yet, it felt like it had all happened in a flash. Wordlessly, the two exchanged glances. They knew they were both thinking the same thing. With a grin, they both tapped fists in celebration. Here they were. They had become the selves they always dreamed of being. And they had made the journey together.

Niro and Rina knew that nothing in this world could hold them back anymore. They were truly happy and complete. They worked harder to find themselves than many people ever would, and they were now on the other side. Their entire lives sprawled out in front of them, they knew they could handle anything and everything that life had in store for them.

Thank you all as always for your continued patience for my slow work as I got this series done. It was a definite labor of love, and I had a lot of fun doing it. Happy Pride Month, everyone! Remember, no lawmaker or corrupt politician is allowed to define who and what you are. No matter where on the spectrum you find yourself, you are beautiful and your deserve love. Thank you all.
