Eternal Love

CHAPTER 29

A/N: So I researched about Ayaka's father and I was shock that her father is dead .-.

So nevermind about that I'll just continue it with Ayaka's having a father. I have not yet decided which nation where they are so.... please don't get confused.

It's late at night, and Lumine is hanging out with Miko in her place.

"How long will you continue to ignore Ei?" Lumine sighed. "What do you mean ignore?" Miko said. "I'm not ignoring her." "Oh, really? Then let's go see her tomorrow," Lumine said.

"A-ah, I'm afraid I won't be able to since I have uh... an appointment with Lisa," Miko said hesitantly. "See, you're lying and plainly ignoring Ei; what's up with you?" Lumine inquired.

Miko was hesitant to tell Lumine about her.... Uncertain feelings towards Ei She's not sure if she likes Ei or if she's simply admiring her. Like the gay woman she is.

"Miko to Teyvat, where the heck is your mind going? Celestia?" snarled Lumine.

Miko had just quickly told Lumine about her chat with Lisa at the library. Lumine understood what was going on and smacked Miko, causing Miko to whimper.

"Ei is feeling lonely, you dumbass," Lumine hissed. 

Feeling lonely? Miko thought.

"Look at you, blushing like a fool; you obviously like her!" Lumine said.

Miko still denied it, and Lumine had had enough of her stupidity; this was her first time seeing Miko stupid.

"All right, let me ask you some questions, okay? Fucking answer them honestly," Lumine said.

"Does your heart beat quicker simply seeing her or being around her?" Lumine inquired.

Miko nodded.

"Do you get worried when she's not with you? Do you miss her?"

Miko nodded.

"Have you ever caught yourself looking at her like a fool in love, noticing every single detail of her face, finding her every action adorable?" Lumine asked.

Miko blushed and nodded.

"Do you think about her all the time?"

Miko nodded quickly.

"For fucks sake, are you that stupid! You like Ei!" Lumine said.

Do I truly like her? Miko blushed and covered her face with her palms as she thought.

"Didn't know you were so stupid when it comes to liking someone," Lumine teased.

"Shut up," Miko hissed.

"I had no idea you were so stupid when it came to liking someone," Lumine laughed.

"I.... I don't know. It's only been a few days. It's... it's strange that I already have feelings for her after only a week," Miko said.

"That's what you call falling in love at first sight," Lumine said, laughing.

You owe me this, Ei. Lumine thought.

"Thank you for having us here, Mr. Raiden," said Mr. Kamisato

"My pleasure, is the food to your liking?" Mr. Raiden asked.

"It is, thank you," Mr. Kamisato smiled.

It was friday lunch and they are now eating at Raiden's mansion, with Ei and the two siblings present.

"I'm planning to have their wedding next month. I have to give my position to Ei immediately because of my.... health conditions," Mr. Raiden said.

"I apologize for interrupting your conversation, Mr. Raiden, but isn't it too early? We're still at school, studying," Ayato said.

"Will your marriage have an impact on your studies?" Mr. R inquired.

"It will, Mr. Raiden. As you have indicated, once we marry, you will give your position to Ms. Ei, which will interfere with our studies since we will be preoccupied with running the company," Ayato responded.

"I understand your concern, Mr. Ayato, but this is Ei we're talking about; do you think she cannot manage these two matters?" Mr. R said.

"N-no, Mr. R. I know she can manage studying and managing the company at the same time, but as her soon-to-be husband, I am concerned about her health," Ayato stated.

"I see, very thoughtful of you; well then, I know yours and my daughter's intelligence exceeds others, which is why I enrolled you in the advanced class on Sumeru; after your graduation there, which will take 3 months, I will give my position to my daughter, is that sound good?" Mr. R stated.

"Yes, Mr. Raiden," Ayato smiled.

"That's settled, do you have anything to say, Ei?" Mr. R asked.

"I will have our wedding here, not in Sumeru," Ei replied.

"Consider it done," Mr. R said, pleased that things are going his way.

"How about you, Ayaka? Have you met someone you like?" Mr. R said.

"I have one, Mr. Raiden," Ayaka said with a smile. "Ah, who might that lucky man be?" he asked.

"Unfortunately, she doesn't like me," Ayaka fake smiled, emphasizing the word she.

"Oh, I see," Mr. R replied in a disgusted tone. Ayaka notices and tightens her grasp on the fork she was holding. Ayato calmed her down before she erupted in rage.

*

The lunch had ended, and the Kamisatos had already left.

"Don't hang around... too much with that girl," Mr. R said.

"Don't tell me not to hang out with my bestfriend; I've already accepted your desire to sell me off to marriage; if you interfere with my life again, I won't hesitate to call off the marriage," Ei hissed and stormed out the house.

*

She returned to school and found Miko at the front entrance. Her worries vanished as soon as she saw the love of her life.

She was walking towards her, and Miko gazed at her with those beautiful eyes of hers. She expected Miko to ignore her again, but she didn't.

"H-hey," Ei said.

"Hello there, Ei. Long time no see?" Miko chuckled.

"Y-yeah long time no see," Ei smiled. "Did you have lunch at your house? You rich kids sure can leave whenever you want," Miko laughed.

"Father called me at home," Ei said with a smile. "I see," Miko said. "What brought you here? Were you waiting for someone?" Ei inquired. "I was waiting for you and... Ayaka?" Miko said, seeing Ayaka was missing.

"Oh, Ayaka has something to talk to her brother about in their car; she'll be here later; why were you waiting for us?" Ei asked..

"Oh, we're simply going to invite you guys to sit with us in the main hall; the voting has ended, and they'll announce who the chosen student council officers are later," Miko replied.

"I see, I gladly accept your invitation," Ei said with a smile. "Thank you, dango," Miko said, laughing.

Miko's sudden nickname caught Ei off guard. She remembered Miko calling her that when they were little.

"We're giving nicknames now, huh? Hmm, you're welcome kitsune," Ei chuckled, and Miko glanced at her with a happy expression on her face, Miko was happy since she had a new nickname that came from Ei.

"Do I truly look like a kitsune?" Miko laughed. "Yes," Ei said with a smile, and Miko blushed and became embarrassed since Ei... was staring at her as though she adored her

"I-i see, let's go inside? We don't want to miss any seats, do we?" Miko giggled. "Lead the way, Ms. Kitsune," Ei chuckled, and Miko just laughed it off as they walked to the main hall together.

Oh, Miko, how long have I missed you
