Purple - Yata Misaki Love Story

Part 6

"I know." He replied, "I knew all along."
I furrowed my eyes brows. It was just us two, I had visited the bar and no one was there but Mikoto. Anna and Kusangi had just left to buy something.
"How?" I finally asked.
"It wasn't that hard to figure out. But I saw you one day with the other blues."
"I'm not really a part of their clan-"
"I know that too. You just told me the reason." He sighed, putting his arms behind his head and leaning back.
I frowned, my shoulders slumped and I cast my eyes to my lap, "So... So you don't care?"
"Not really. I mean, you got yourself into a predicament. Work it out. You can still keep coming here, it's a publicly open bar."
I huffed, "You know that's not what I mean. You know that I don't just come here to hang out at some bar or I would never have told you about this!"
He didn't reply and I clenched my teeth, feeling myself getting angry, "You- you- can't you see I don't belong with the blues? I hate it there! I want you to be my king!"
"Well that can't happen right now, can it?" He replied sharply, sending me a glare as if telling me to stand down.
I took a breath.
"What is it that you want from me?" He asked.
"I just want to hear you say that you'll be waiting for me when I'm free from the blues."
"What else would I be doing?"
My eyes widened, and I almost slapped him then and there. All this time he's known he's been waiting for me to come to join his clan.
All this time... It was like I was already a member.
