Yura and Hikaru went out and took a stroll on the market while wearing a commoner's clothes in order for them to not attract any attention
‘Nobody knows how I feel except for myself, people get close to me because of my status’ Hikaru thought to himself
‘But this girl remained the same even after knowing my true identity although she became so polite but the way she treats me is still the same as before’ he thought as he gaze at Yura walking on his side
‘Back then I only found her interesting because I was still so young and I was so caught up with my first love so even if I find her adorable before, I would have just ignored it’ he thought
"If I accepted her back then, what would've happen?" Hikaru mumbled under his breath
"So what are you going to buy here?" Yura curiously asked
‘But who would have knew that after I met her again, I would feel the same throbbing in my heart just like the moment I first fell in love with that woman’ he thought to himself
Yura waved her hand in front of Hikaru's face as she said "Hikaru!, why are you spacing out?"
"Oh!, I just thought that you have really changed" Hikaru stated
"What do you mean?" Yura asked with confusion written on her face
"Well I didn't think that the little chubby adorable girl who kept chasing me before would turn into a very beautiful woman when she grew up, I should have accepted you back then" Hikaru uttered with a grin
"Ehhh, so that's what you have been thinking?!" Yura uttered in surprise
Hikaru nodded his head and Yura just laughed at him
"Seriously though, I really had to thank you for not accepting my confession back then" Yura stated
"I was so young before that I wasn't able to distinguish love and fleeting adoration so we should just forget the past already and move on" Yura uttered with a smile
"Are you perhaps married with someone already?" Hikaru asked
"I'm still not married yet" she replied
"Then that's great, I'm looking for a certain bracelet that I have seen around here before so why don't you help me look for it" Hikaru happily stated
Yura nodded her head as she said "Okay, what does it look like?"
"It's a little green jade bracelet with a little lock on the center of it" Hikaru stated
The merchant who heard him, walked towards Hikaru as he said "Is this perhaps the thing you are looking for dear customer?"
Hikaru nodded his head as he said "Yes, that's the one"
The merchant handed him the bracelet as he said "Here it is"
Hikaru handed the payment and the merchant gave him a key
"So it's paired with a key" Yura uttered
"Can I see your hand?" Hikaru stated
"Why?" Yura confusingly asked
"Just let me see it" Hikaru replied
Yura reached out her hand and Hikaru immediately put the bracelet on her
"This kind of bracelet can only be opened using this key, so as your owner I shall keep the key" Hikaru stated
"What?!" Yura uttered in shock
"Why do you look so surprised?, are you really that happy about it?" Hikaru stated
"Instead of being happy, I felt like I have been doomed" Yura mumbled under her breath
