Everlasting Happiness

Life 13

Akeno's PoV

"Tell me more about yourself."

Right now I'm currently talking to Masato-kun who's walking me home.

He tells me about himself and where does he live, when he's birthday and other stuffs.

"Are we close to your home Himejima-san?"

"Uhm yeah. You can call me Akeno you know?"

"Ahaha sure thing Akeno"

He smiled charmingly again while scratching his cheek using his index finger.

"Thanks again for saving me.."

"My pleasure. I saw someone needing help so I came rushing."

"By the way, where did you come from? How did you know where I was?"

"I was at the convenience store when I heard dirty thoughts"

"Thoughts? You can read minds?"

Masato widen his eyes a little then goes back to his usual smile.

"U-uhmm it's not hard to guess"

He avoid eye contact. I knew it, I can sense something from him.

Since my senses are weak right now, I can't identify what kind of instincts he has.

"Are we here?"

We stop walking and I didn't notice that we're at home.

"Yeah"

"Well then I should keep going"

He faced back and starts walking.

"Hey wait Masato-kun"

He turns around to face me

"Yes?"

"I would like to know more about you. Thanks for saving me. Do you want some tea? I'll serve you inside."

"Uhmm I really don't like tea and-"

"Please? I'll just saying my thank you by offering you something"

He looks at me with a natural expression. He sigh and clear his throat.

"A-alright then.. If you insist"

With that we went inside home.

Living room

Masato-kun take interest at what he's seeing.

"Please make yourself at home"

He sat down at the couch while having thoughts.

If he's a mind reader, then.

"Masato-kun what do you like black sage tea? Or something else?"

He looks at me and smile.

"Black sage tea would be good and calling me Masato is fine"

I smiled and prepare his tea. After a few minutes I put the tea set on the living room table.

"Thanks Akeno"

"Welcome"

He drank the tea and a moments later I can see a hint of sparkles in his eyes.

"You really make a good tea! It's delicious!"

"Thanks for the complement Masato"

Now I need to ask him few questions. I can now sense what aura he's having. My senses are coming back.

"Masato"

He put the tea cup at the table.

"Yes?"

"What are you?"

I asked him straight to the point. The room is filled with silence. It seems like he's thinking for the best answer.

"What do you mean?"

He smiled sheepishly and scratch the back of his head.

"I can sense different aura from you."

He then looks down. I can't see his face because of his hair.

"Is that why you invite me?"

"Half truth but it's the way of saying thank you"

"Can't you just say thank you and let this go?"

"I-I'm sorry"

He rise his head and looks at me with a serious face.

"You.. How do you know I'm different?"

"So you are different?"

"You didn't answer my question."

"You didn't answer any of mine.."

The room once again filled with silence.

Until Masato spoke.

"We're friends now right?"

"Ofcourse!"

"Then.. That means.. You trust me"

"Yes with my whole heart"

"Even though we just met?"

"Yeah. I can trust you enough that's why I'm asking you this to know more about you."

"Okay then sit besides me"

I sit besides Masato and listen to what he was about to say. I didn't notice that while we're having an argument two minutes ago it's already raining hard.

"Akeno"

"Masato"

"I'm a mind reader"
