Taishi-sama and the Noh Player Chapter 2 : The Day I Fall for You

Miko's POV :
"My name is usually a secret. But I could probably trust and I guess everyone would know who I am really." I said with little regrets. "Just tell me. If you want it a secret, I can keep it safe." she responds with faith and determination. "My name is Toyosatomimi no Miko. Usually, I am referred as Shoutoku, the Crown Prince of this land. And no, do not keep it a secret anymore. I do not want anyone to discover it themselves and I do not wish to lie anymore." I said with a gentle, straight-forward, and calm tone while I took off my cloak, hat, and some other clothing parts. "W-Wait... wha-?! Oh my...! I'm so sorry for dragging you suddenly!! Sorry for being so rude to you!! Please don't execute me!!" she said with a lot of worry. "I never knew you were the Crown Prince Shoutoku..." she said something again, but more quite.

Kokoro's POV :
I hope what he said is true. I've always feared the Shoutoku ever since I've heard about him. But he seems nicer than what I assume. "It's fine. Perhaps we should get along a little better? Maybe we should ve friends, Kokoro." he said with a jokeful, carefree, and calm tone. Is he serious? I never had friends before even if I am famous for my Noh act. I nod twice in agreement.

Miko's POV :
"I'm really glad~." I said while getting her closer to my face. I can feel a strange aura coming from her, so much like Kawakatsu I've met long ago. This feeling is a whole new one I have never felt before. This aura... is what I want to held for the rest of my life. I've finally decided that she'll be my future wife. I hope "she" doesn't interfere with this agreement, even though we had just propose by force.

Kokoro's POV :
'What's he doing? His face is so close to mines! Ah... what is this? He is so charismatic... wait. What am I thinking?! He wouldn't like someone low-classed like me.' I thought to myself in disappointment. But something is changing! What's going on? My colours have returned! After such a long time since I've acted the Noh playing. Is he... the only one who can return my emotions? How? "I am guessing you are my roommate?" he asks. "What do you mean?" I asked him without a proper reply. "I've seen you in my dormitory. But I have never met you there. I am just curious." he said while releasing me. "Wait! So if you're the one who wore those clothes, does that mean...!" I said full of surprise. "Yes. We are roommates." he replies gently.

Miko's POV :
Her face is full of surprise, her face is getting red, and I can totally sense an aura changing. Her colours? Was she like this before? It's pretty unfamiliar for me. Could those be her emotions return? Well, she still is a poker face she is. "Were you always full of colours like this?" I question full of curiousity. "N-No. I was unable to express or feel anything. I-I was gray coloured when I had no emotions to express. I didn't feel anything either. But s-somehow, y-you return back my lost emotions! H-how though?" she asked with a shy tone, or maybe she was shy? "I do not know. Is my aura really this much of a specialty?" I respond with confusion as well. She begans to get even more red. "Can you express emotions?" I asked. "No. I-I used my m-mask to express. But since I can't a-always have it around, I... had trouble finding the right expression..." she said in a sad tone. Masks? Could she be him? His daughter perhaps? "Do you want me to help you express emotions? I can help." I reply, and it lifted her head. She says, "Yes, please!!!" with excitement.
