I Got Reincarnated In Highschool Dxd (Reboot)

chapter 20:the date

In the cozy embrace of my mom's hug, I found myself caught in the whirlwind of her excitement. Her joyful words rang in my ears as she hugged me tightly, planting affectionate kisses on my forehead and cheek.

Mom:You have a date, my little Finn! Finally has a date

She exclaimed, the sheer exuberance in her voice mirroring the joy that radiated within me.

Kira, my ever-enthusiastic little sister, couldn't contain her excitement. She jumped up and down, her energy infectious.

Kira: big bro and Rias sitting on a tree...

she began, her words trailing off into the anticipated rhythm of a familiar rhyme.

I cut her off before she could complete the sentence, a playful smirk gracing my lips.

Me:Kira, Kira, Kira

I chuckled, shaking my head.

Me:Let's not get ahead of ourselves. It's just a date.

My mom, with an amused glint in her eyes, joined in on the teasing.

Mom:Oh, Finn, my dear, don't be so modest. A date is a step towards something special, you know.

As the banter unfolded, I couldn't help but appreciate the genuine excitement and support that surrounded me. It was a reminder that, despite the supernatural complexities and battles that defined our lives, there were moments of ordinary joy that connected us on a human level.

Kira, undeterred by my attempt to downplay the situation, grinned mischievously.

Kira:Come on, big bro! You like Rias, don't you? Admit it!

I rolled my eyes playfully.

Me:Kira, liking someone and going on a date are different things. Let's just see how the date goes.

My mom, sensing the playful tension, intervened with a knowing smile.

Mom:Well, whatever happens, Finn, we're here to support you. Just be yourself, and everything will fall into place.

With those reassuring words, the atmosphere in our home became a blend of familial warmth and the anticipation of a date that held the promise of ordinary

My mom's smile lingered as I headed off to change, a mixture of warmth and understanding in her gaze. Kira, always curious and candid, couldn't help but express her thoughts.

Kira:Why are you smiling, Mom?

Kira inquired, her innocent curiosity evident in her voice.

Mom:never thought Finn would find love after what happened to Aysha.

My mom's expression softened, a subtle blend of melancholy and hope. She sat down, beckoning Kira to join her as she began to unravel a part of our shared history.

"Sweetie," my mom began, her words carrying the weight of past sorrows,

Mom:finding love doesn't replace the love we've lost. It's about opening our hearts again, allowing new connections to blossom. Finn has been through a lot, and we've seen him overcome challenges with resilience. Love, in its many forms, has a way of finding us, even when we least expect it.

Kira, absorbing the gravity of my mom's words, tilted her head.

Kira:But what about Aysha? Big bro really loved her.

A sigh escaped my mom's lips as she gently stroked Kira's hair.

Meom:Aysha will always hold a special place in Finn's heart, and ours too. Losing someone we care about is never easy, and the pain remains. But life goes on, and sometimes, we encounter new beginnings. Finn deserves happiness, and if this date with Rias brings him joy, then we should celebrate it.
