The Matchmaker

close to awakening the secret is out

Ange took Rui to violet and Rachel "you felt something move in your stomach" Rachel said as she looked somewhat baffled

"Must be close to time then" violet said "close to what time" Rui said as Ernst was passing by "the birthing" violet said which made Ernst stop and lean his head against the door to listen to what was happening

"Is it possible I mean she doesn't look any different" Ange said "I'm not physically pregnant Ange just soulful" Rui said making Ernst shocked at what he heard

"There are ways for a goddess to get pregnant you know first way is of course...sex..." violet said bluntly making Rui sputter

"I'm still a Virgin how would that even be possible I haven't even had my first kiss yet" Rui said flustered as Ernst was surprised at this information

"The second way is through a fate chain...the parent doesn't actually have to do anything physical to get the baby to grow inside them" violet said

"Well last I checked I'm not wearing any chains" Rui said "The third way...is the soul bond..." violet said as she looks at Rui who looked at her waiting for her to continue talking

"Go on" Rui said "The soul bond is rarely known to happen as the significant quantity and quality of the parent must match the child's soul..." violet said

"So they're feeding off my unstable energy and stabilizing my abilities...is that what your saying" Rui said as Ernst walked away as he was going to tell the other's about this news

"Yes...it's a good thing...though this is a rare case scenario physical manifestation for the children is a safe procedure sometimes they end up as different ages" violet said

"For example one of them might be an older child like a 7 year old or a baby" violet said making Rui suspicious about her information

"You sure do know a lot about this birthing process..." Rui said looking at violet with a deadpan expression on her face "I read it dear niece you should try it sometime" violet said with an innocent smile on her face

Rui's pov

After that whole explanation with aunt violet I sighed and put a hand over my eyes 'if dad ever found out he'd freak out' I thought to myself

'I don't even know how my soulmates will react when and if they end up finding out about this' I thought to myself

I stopped walking and put a hand over my stomach 'it doesn't hurt now...and I don't feel like I have any mood swings I don't feel hungry is this supposed to happen' I thought to myself

'I'm terrified...will they react good or bad if they ever find out...oh great now I'm feeling insecure' I thought to myself "Rui" Ernst said from behind me as I saw them "we need to talk" Victor said making me fear the worst

3rd person pov

"You could have told us you were pregnant" Leonard said sternly as Rui flinched "I didn't think you guys would be understanding if you did find out" Rui said sadly

"Who got you pregnant" heuye said "no one I'm still a Virgin I haven't even had my first kiss yet" Rui said flustered and looking away while blushing

"So how are you pregnant then" Leonard said trying to get some answers "now let's not pressure her you might scare her" Francis said softly

"There are other ways for a goddess to get pregnant...she got it before she even knew we were her soulmates" Ernst said "how is that possible" Victor said

"It's a rare case of reincarnation some children will manifest into a physical appearance at a certain time and place, Day or night the possibilities are endless" Ernst said

"But in most cases some children are babies while others are physically given a body of a 9 year old child" Ernst said making Rui realize something with a gasp

"You were listening in on the conversation that was private you were eavesdropping" Rui said feeling upset "I was just passing by when I heard the conversation I couldn't help it" Ernst said calmly

"You could have kept your nose out of it...the truth was I was scared how you all would react...I didn't want you all to hate me" Rui said sadly lowering her head

Francis walked up to Rui and grabbed both of her hands kneeling in front of her making Rui look up at him from the ground

"Rui you were the one who made us believe we could achieve anything it's practically impossible to hate someone as passionate and kind as you" Francis said

"And I think from my point of view everyone would agree that we would support you all the way no matter what the cost" Francis said

"Indeed I agree with Francis you have a way of pulling people in with your friendly and playful nature that anyone would like" Ernst said

"Hey you said things that actually surprised me when we first met and it still leaves an impact on me" Leonard said

"You are always full of surprises and that's what makes me glad to know that you're always so full of life" heuye said smiling

"Although I haven't been here the longest I do feel that your the type of person who's honest and kind and always put others needs before your own" Victor said smiling

"See...we all love you...as a person and as our soulmate...you should depend on us more like you made us depend on you" Francis said

Rui could not hold back the tears in her eyes and she started crying at the heartfelt words "I don't deserve you guys at all" Rui said crying happily

"What am I supposed to do you guys have made me so happy I'm crying now" Rui said as she kept crying "embrace it" Francis said as they all hugged her tightly
