My Love for You was Stronger than Anything
In the end, Vladimir couldn't meet Liliana due to his Summon Spirits causing mischief for a few months lately. He was sitting at his bakery, sighing as he kept thinking of what relationship he have with this Liliana person.
Vladimir: Who...is this Liliana person...? I really tried to remember her but...I can't. Something is preventing me from remembering her...and...even if I did get to meet her, will she gives me the answers I've looking for...? What if she lied to me by saying we're not actually together when everyone, including my friends said we're a couple in love...? *Silent* ...I wonder...if I did something wrong to her...I mean, if she's really my future wife who loves me, wouldn't she appear to help me get my memories back...?
He heard a bell rang, indicating he have a costumer. He stood up and saw a woman who kept on flirting with him for a few months now. Though he ignored it.
Woman: Hey Vladdy~I'm here again~
Vladimir: ....Hey. (Vladdy...? Somehow, it feels... familiar...)
Woman: What's wrong? You doesn't sound too happy.
Vladimir: *Shake his head* .... It's none of your business.
Woman: Ouch that's cold~ *Lean against the counter* So, where is your fiancée? I haven't seen her around lately.
Vladimir: Ah she's....busy. Doing something.
Woman: Perfect!
Vladimir: ....?
The woman suddenly went near his face, caught him off guard.
Woman: ....Why don't you dump her and take me instead? I'm sure I will make you happy more than her.
Vladimir: Get... *Push her away* Get away from me!
He pushed her a little too hard that she bumped into one of his creations. Her dress got dirty.
Woman: Ahh my dress!
Vladimir: S-sorr--
Woman: My daddy bought this dress for me! Now you ruined it...!
Vladimir: Well... it's your fault that you get too comfortable with me.
The woman huffed and curse at him before leaving the shop. Vladimir sighed.
Vladimir: Women with their fancy dresses... *Spotted something shiny on the floor* This is....?
He went near the ruined cakes and pick up a pendant that were on the floor. He opened it and widen his eyes.
Vladimir: This is...me and...Liliana-san...? ....Hm? *Look carefully of a picture he kissed Liliana on lips* ........ *Blush* D-did I really kiss her on the lips while people watching us...!? Wow...I must be bold... *Notice a button* What's this...?
He pressed the button and saw the hologram of himself, looking awkward. He said it's for White Day before saying sweet things about Liliana. Just then, he heard a explosion from the pendent, ending it.
Vladimir: Th-this is...my gift for... *Clutch his head in pain*
Memories started to appear about Liliana. How she smiled, how she cried, how she said he loved her. Everything.
Vladimir: *Pant* ....I...I remember...L-Lily...Lily is my.... *Slowly fall on his knees* ....How...did I forget about her...? About...the woman who love me.... *Silent* ...Does she even love me now, after what I've done...? I didn't protect her and her child... *Cover his eyes* ...Heck...she said she'll curse me to death...how am I supposed to do...? Even though she said things that hurt my feelings because she doubted me...she doubted me...! But...! *Tears coming out* ...I can't...I can't move on...! Curses-! ...I still love her...! I love her...I love her very much....
While Vladimir were having a breakdown, Siro were secretly watching him.
Siro: ....Looks like he really loves her after all. *Hold a broken glass bottle* ...That eases my mind. Now then... *Put it away* ....I can only hope Liliana is alright. Hmph, not that I'm worried about her. I hope she's ready to face him and tell him in the face if she really don't love him anymore...
