Later during the sunset, Sora and Kairi sit at the edge of the dock
Kairi: You know, Riku has changed.
Sora: What do you mean?
Kairi: Well...
She grows silent
Sora: You okay?
Kairi: Sora, let’s take the raft and go—just the two of us!
Sora: Huh?
Kairi (giggling): Just kidding.
Sora: What’s gotten into you? You’re the one that’s changed,
Kairi.
Kairi: Maybe... You know, I was a little afraid at first, but now I’m
ready. No matter where I go or what I see, I know I can always come back here.
She turns to face him
Kairi: Right?
Sora: Yeah, of course!
Kairi: That’s good.
She pauses
Kairi: Sora, don’t ever change.
Sora: Huh?
She stands up and takes a final look over the ocean. He stares up at her
Kairi: I just can’t wait. Once we set sail, it’ll be great.
He follows her gaze as the sun sets.
