« Oh please Zelda, kids are sooooo annoying. »No doubts, Impa's fine.
« Be kind, they were like what, 4 to 6 years old ? », I chuckled.
« Yes, but that's not an excuse. They were so bad, and always complaining like 'Impaaa, Sefaro hurt me' », she said in a high-pitched voice. « I just wanted to tell them 'Yes Teebo, it's totaly the point of a fighting sport' but I was like 'ooooh show me where did he hurt you'. »
« I would have paid a lot to see it ! », I bursted into laughter.
« I will never do it again. Not in this life, nor in another ! Why Link didn't come tonight ? Usually he does it. And Daruk knows how deeply I hate children ! »
« You were his best option because you are his best athlete. », I tried to find him an excuse. « And Link had an archery training. »
« Maybe, but the worst baby-sitter of all time. Wait, how do you know that ? I thought you barely knew him ? »
« We are in the same maths lecture and he was sitting next to me so we talked a bit. When I told him I was about to see you at the stadium, he said that he had a training session. », I lied.
« Okay, that makes sense. Seriously I'd rather have been with you tonight. », she sighed. « How was your evening ? What have you done ? »
« Pretty good in fact, even if you weren't with me. »
« Yeah, I can imagine. Life sucks when I'm not here. », she chuckled and I couldn't help bursting in laughter too.
Oh Impa, I'm pretty sure that if you were all alone in a room, you would find a way to laugh with the walls.
« So you directly went home ? »
« Uh... no. »
« You went to the library so ? »
« Neither. »
« So what ? Don't tell me Princess Zelda went to the stadium ! »
« Well... I accompanied Link to the stadium and I kinda watched his training. »
« Oh, oh. », she teased me. « And... ? »
« And I met a very annoying boy before I worked on the bleachers. »
« Aaaaand ? »
« And I went home. Alone. »
« So boring. », I heard her huffing.
« Hey ! You know I'm boring ! »
We laughed together and talked about random stuff while I was eating my dinner. I knew she loved the gossips, but I also perfectly knew her. She could tease me as long as she wanted with Link and how soon we will end up together, her voice was sometimes a bit shaky. I've never been with a boy, nor she'd been, and – I didn't really know if I would date Link one day – that thought was probably scaring her a bit. There's always been us against the world. Just the two of us and no one else. Not another friends, and certainly not a boyfriend.
Anyway, having a boyfriend isn't allowed by the Bosphoramus Commandements.
« Impa ? »
« Yes ? »
« You know that you'll always be my favorite person on earth ? »
