As I opened my eyes, I saw him laying right beside me, hugging me by the waist and looking at me with his starry eyes as I wondered about his hidden eye. "Oh? you woke up? Good morning Kaya." "Goodmorning.." I yawned. "Get ready. We are about to leave to Inazuma." "Did you contact The Alcor (The ship) members?" "Uh..no. We can teleport anyway." Kaeya laughed. "No. We cannot teleport between nations. Teleportation is available only inside a nation." "Oh..that's unfair. When I play genshin, I never had to do that except for the first time. Well, it was hard to go to Inazuma. I unlocked Fontaine before Inazuma you know?" "Yeah. I get the fact that you are extraordinarily talented. But, The Crux (the armed fleet)'s help is needed in this case." "Okay. I will send a letter right away." "No..don't worry. I've already did that." "As expected of you, quick as always." We both laughed at some stupid jokes and spent some time on the bed. Should I tell him about Xiao? I'm worried. How will he react..How am I going to answer to Xiao's question? Ah..so frustrating to be the Traveler. "Worried?" That caught me off guard. "Ye- No..no..I'm not." "Tell me if something is bothering you. Don't you try to hide anything from me." "I won't." I felt bad for lying to him. I wanted to say it but something's pulling me away from saying it. I shouldn't be late. Beidou must be waiting.
We got ready real quick and ate some food at the inn. Smiley Yanxiao's cooking is truly majestic. "Kaeya. I have to meet someone before I leave." "Yeah sure. Want me to come with you?" "Yes." We both went to the corner were I met Xiao for the first time and called out his name. "Xiao!! where are you?!" He appeared as soon as I called his name. "Yes. Traveler, ready to answer?" "Actually, I wanted to tell you something. But before that, let me introduce you to him." I asked Kaeya to come forward. "This is Kaeya." I hesitated a moment before finally saying that, "My boyfriend." Kaeya smiled at me and held me by the waist. Xiao stood there, without saying anything. "Oh..Boyfriend? Nice to meet you Kaeya." "Pleasure is mine as well, Mr. Xiao." "Seems like I've got my answer. I'll take my leave now. Goodbye Traveler." "Wait-" I went over to him and hugged him. "Will you come to me if ever I need help?" "Of course, I will. You helped me countless time. Don't worry about that. You told me you wanted to say something." "No..it's nothing. Take care Xiao. I'm leaving to Inazuma." "You too, Traveler. Take good care of her then." Xiao says as Kaeya nods. He disappears after that. I felt heaviness on my chest. I felt....I felt so..sad..when he said goodbye Traveler. "Uhm..so what was that about? This must be the matter that was bothering you huh? You surprised me there though. Claiming me all yourself." "I believe I did not say anything wrong infront of him." "Yes, you said all right. Why don't we promote ourselves?" "Promote?" He laughed and said, "Haha, Kaya let's head over to The Alcor then." We both set off to see Beidou.
