Ancient War

Agreement

( two weeks after the sudden explanation. Luna focused on her work, but her mind wouldn't stop thinking of Damon. She went to Carlo's home and talked for a while with Karin. She is at a cafe with Karin, who is mad at the mention of Damon.)

" Oh, Karin, why did he have to come back after so long?"

" I don't know, Luna. You managed to forget him and continued being human. He has no right to mix your feeling again."

" How did he know where to find me, by the way?"

" Carlo told him where you worked. I'm angry for what he did, but don't worry about Damon. I'll make sure Carlo doesn't spill anymore information."

" Thanks, Karin. It's a good thing that I stopped turning into a kitsune."

" I know, Luna. It was a miracle that we became friends after all the attacks."

" Yeah, it took time, but we made it. Now, I'm sorry to leave right now, but I got to go back to the office. It was nice talking with you."

" I feel the same way. Don't try to make your job the way to keep yourself busy though."

" I won't. I just need to finish two cases and we can then go anywhere you want."

" How about a restaurant tomorrow?Carlo and me are going, so why don't you come along?"

" I don't know. I think he would enjoy you to himself, since the wedding will be in two weeks."

" Please, Luna. You got to enjoy yourself more. Besides, you promised."

" Okay, okay. I'll meet you at the restaurant then. What's the name?"

" The same one we always to to, silly. Don't know the name yet?"

" Oh, you mean Love Cave. Okay, well, I'll meet you there tomorrow. See ya, Karin."

" Yeah, Luna. And I'm warning you, you better not try to find an excuse to not come."

I laugh and drive to the building. I enter the building and greet my secretary.

" Oh, Miss Fire, you have a note and some candy."

" Who brought them, Jacky?"

" I don't know, Luna. I found it when I arrived not long ago."

" Okay, where are they?"

" Inside your office."

" Thank you. Keep up the hard work."

" You know I will."

I enter the office and see my favorite chocolates inside a basket. I grab the note and the handwriting is Damon's.

" Dear princess,

I'm sorry for doing this, but you left me no choice. I need another chance and I will continue to send stuff to your office, until you give me a opportunity to speak with you in person. Please don't make me continue to do this and let's meet up in the cafe or something. "

" Oh, Damon, I wish I could. But Karin is right and you are the cause for my confusion."

" Luna, are you busy?"

" Oh, no. What is it?"

" You have a client waiting."

" Send that person in."

She nods and Carlo enters. I'm confused, but sit down in my sit. I close the door and he starts speaking.

" Luna, I lied to get inside, but it's important."

" Fine, say whatever it is, Carlo. You better have a good excuse though."

" Okay, it about Damon."

" Get out, Carlo."

" Luna, I just started speaking. Let me finish at least."

" No, Carlo. I told him to stay out of my life and I will keep you out of my life as well, if I have to.You're my friend, but helping him will only make Karin be more angry at you and I will not allow you to enter my office either."

" Okay, okay. I get it. I'll ask you to come with Karin and me for dinner then."

" I already agreed to it, when I was talking with her. I'll meet you guys there, but I don't want to hear about Damon again. Now, please leave, Carlo. I got to finish two cases, if you two want me there."

" Okay, Luna. But don't work too hard."

" You know I will do it, Carlo. See Karin and you tomorrow."
