Yuri ; this is so pretty.
" Thank you. I made this myself. " The shop owner said. This shop owner was a bit handicapped and had to sit on a wheelchair. Yuri had picked up a necklace
Yuri ; Kyearth. Your shop has so many weird things.
Kyearth was the shop owner's name " people still buy it. It's useful. "
Yuri ; your shop has all kinds of knick knacks. Don't know who's making all of these . Like an old man inventor is hiding at the back of this shop.
Kyearth: ahem. I am the person who made it.
Yuri ; why do you only make one of some things and many of some other things ?
Kyearth: I don't know if people like it. For those that people buy, I get someone else to replicate
Yuri : I see. Then how about this necklace ?
It was a nice eagle bent and folded multifolds from metal. It hung onto a silver chain.
Kyearth: I thought of someone when I made this. Wanted to give it to her when she got married. As a blessing. I'm supposed to go find her but...
Yuri ; I see. She's married so you can't find her anymore.
Kyearth: it's not that kind of reason. Haha. Never mind. I must have accidentally placed it there. You can have it.
Yuri : are you sure ?
Kyearth: sure.
Yuri : how much ?
Kyearth: free.
Yuri smiled " thank you. I can be considered as your special customer now ? "
Kyearth: sure sure. Oh. I made this new gardening thing....

Lianari was wearing her clothes back " Jin. "
Jin ; hm ?
Lianari: .... I think I should go back to my room.
Jin : why ? This bed is more than big enough
Lianari: I don't want us to regret what might happen.
Jin : regret ?
The butler knocked.
Lianari: come in Alex.
Alex brings in the tray and places it on the table " are you sure you want to drink it now?"
Lianari: leave it.
Alex nods and leaves.
Jin ; wait. What is that ?
Lianari: ... Yuri and you belong to each other. I know the nights I have with you is a mere fleeting dream.
Jin hurriedly gets of the bed and goes towards her. She picks up the bowl as she hears his footsteps. She starts to down the bowl and he takes it over and throws it on the floor " lia !! "
She wouldn't turn around to see him " what... "
Jin ; our marriage night. Did you also... Alex !!
Alex : ... She made her own. Master. I couldn't stop her.
Jin turned her around " why don't you understand?!! "
" I do !! I can't... I can't do this again !! Jin !! " She walks out of the room . Her eyes closed and tears fell.

Yuri : hm hm hm ~
Jin ; you're happy
Yuri ; and you're sour.
Jin ; how can she not understand?!
Yuri ; then tell her.
Jin ; all these days . I thought she would understand
Yuri ; sighs. Because you're not clear.
Jin : she's my wife. How's that not clear ?
Yuri ; Lady Reis is but a dream for her
Jin : and she's willing to give me all of that for a dream ? She's not that impractical.
Yuri : women do dumb things for men they love.
Flashback ~
Yuri ; how's Jin ?
Lianari: ... He's starting to call me by my nickname... Lia...
Yuri : why is that making you sad ?
Lianari: this is but a sweet dream, Yuri. I have to return him back to you... I don't understand how you can be ok with him and me...
Yuri : it's ok. Jin is very good in bed. Hehe. I get that.
Lianari: that's not what I mean...
Yuri ; then ?
Lianari: I need to pull away... Before I sink in too deep.
Yuri ; doesn't matter. You're his wife. It's ok. Me... I can be that lover. I'm ok with it.
Lianari: what if you lose him ?
Yuri : I won't. In fact , you should be more worried. If the day comes he really divorces you. That's bad for you. So you should hold onto him real tight.
Lianari just smiled " I have so much money. I don't intend to after him. "
Yuri ; huh ? Why ?
Lianari: it's not fair to the new guy. Plus... I'm ok and happy I once had this dream. Maybe I'll try to sell something the army needs. So I can see him again. Would you mind ?
Yuri ; you would be his reliable assistant. Why would I mind ?
End ~
Jin ; silly idiot...
Yuri ; you both are.
Jin ; by the way , that eagle necklace looks nice.
Yuri ; right ? I got it for free.
Jin ; you've got a new guy ?
Yuri ; what new guy ! .... He is a shop owner I go to buy knick knacks from.
Jin ; oh ~~
