Love Far Beyond the Ashes

Like A Married Couple

Kiara pov: "Hey Pomu, Calli and I are heading out with Kobo and Clara for a bit; want to come?" I asked

Pomu looked up at me and stopped leaning on Selen's shoulder.

"Maybe," she said.

"Do whatever you want, Pomu, since Zeta and I are going on an adventure because we are both waiting for Mumei to come back," Selen said.

"Where is Elira, by the way?" Pomu asked

"Fuck, she's still in the trap with Axel and Regis." Selen said

Wait with Regis. That's Kobo's older brother. Since when was he here? Maybe I should tell her about that, or maybe not. I don't actually care.

"So Pomu, are you coming?" I asked

"Sure, why not, but one question: what's up with your attire?" Pomu asked

"Oh, Calli wanted to role-play like the bad girl she is. I'm a German lady, and she's a sheriff!" I giggled

"Wait, you can't role-play as yourself!" Pomu said

"Nun, das ist nicht ganz richtig" I said

"That's German..." Pomu stated

"Correct!" I laughed

"I'm ready to go, honey," Calli sang as she hugged me from behind.

"You'll have to apprehend me first since I've been a bad girl, making you do things to me," I cooed.

"Actually, I don't think I want to get between you two." Pomu said to us

"That's probably the best bet," Selen stated.

"Wait, Pomu, we won't act like this with the kids!" I yelled

"Well, I guess that's a good thing they don't need to see two middle-aged women flirting." Pomu said

"We aren't middle-aged, damn it!" Calli hissed

"You do act like it sometimes, Calli... I said

Calli gave me an offhand glance that was gentle yet murderous, but I could sense the love coming from it.

"Let's go, Pomu, Calliope Mori," I said.

"What the fuck, why did you say my full name?" Calli asked

"Just because," I told her before swiftly kissing her and skipping past her.

She stood there astonished at my boldness. I cheerfully turned around and skipped around her, "Let's go!" I chanted, and she finally nodded and grabbed my hand. The three of us walked off together.

"So where are we going?" Pomu asked

"No fucking idea," Calli and I said in unison.

Pomu glared at me. her mouth wide open, she questioned how the two of us can live like this, going day to day without a plan, but she's actually the worst offender of this; she can't tell us for not having a plan when there is no way she has a plan.

"Mommy Clara hit me!" Kobo screamed

"I did, but it was an accident!" Clara yelled

"Clara, be careful when you practice dancing, okay?" I asked

"Yeah, thank you for understanding, mom," Clara said.

The two of them went outside to wait for us.

"Kiara, has anyone told you that Clara looks exactly like the two of you?" Pomu asked

"Yeah, actually, the two of us made sure to have at least one child like that," I said.

"Wait what!?" Pomu questioned

"We made them like that; you know how we did that," I told her.

Calli stood there silently, just nodding in agreement. I looked at her and smirked before skipping over to her and spanking her as hard as I could. "Wawa!" She yelped

"It's so bouncy, Calli. Did my precious reaper like that?" I asked

She just blushed a tiny bit. She circled around and spanked me, trying to get even, but I wasn't about to give her a reaction.

"You liked that, didn't you?" I asked

"I did..." She said her face was becoming red like a tomato.

"You two are so cute that it's so surprising that you didn't like one another for a bit," Pomu said.

I completely forgot that Pomu knows most of the story of the things that happened between us in those four months. I had promised myself I wouldn't talk to or see Calli again, but in the end, I fell in love with her again. She is the reason I am able to get up now. I walked over to Calli once again and leaned into her ear.

"Be a good girl or I'll punish you," I whispered into her ear.

"That's my line, you punk!" Calli shouted

"Okay, don't yell. We don't want Clara or Kobo to think mommy and daddy are fighting."

"Well, maybe we are fighting!" Calli shouted

"No, we are not Calliope Mori!" I yelled

"Well then, what is this Takahashi Kiara?" Calli asked, saying my full name since I said hers.

"This argument is so forced," Pomu laughed.

Calli and I looked at one another and sighed.

"We can't check argument off of our couples list yet," Calli said.

"Nope," I sighed.

"Wait, you two want an argument to occur?" Pomu questioned

"Yeah, we made a list of things married couples do, and since we are married, we at least want to argue at least once," Calli said.

"We agree too much though, and the things she does that annoy me, I've already bitched about when I was younger and during the four months apart," I said.

Pomu was at a loss for words; she didn't know how to help us with that, so she just shook her head to snap herself back to reality.

"Let's just go!" She stated

"Right!" Calli and I said together

We went outside and met up with Clara and Kobo.

"So where are we going?" Clara asked

"Just out and about, I want to hit town," I said.

"Can we come!?" Bae asked

Irys and Sana shook their heads, wanting me to say no.

"Why?" I asked.

"I need to find Mumei, Kronii, and Fauna!" Bae yelled

"No..." I said

"I want to see aunties!" Kobo yelled

"You just saw them," Calli said softly.

Kobo wasn't having it though, so we had to bite the bullet. Unfortunately, our first stop is to see Tom, so I would have to help Bae find my sister.

A family issue really enthralling stuff...
