Chapter 28: A promise

Normal POV

"Ne,Tatsumi, Did you know where Mia-chan is?"Tsuzuki asked.

"No, but she did say that she was going outside..."Tatsumi said.

"Then she's probably by the Sakura trees..."Tsuzuki said as he look out the window.

"How are you sure that she will be there?"Tatsumi asked as he put down some papers.

"She's always there whenever she goes outside...and you know...it is kinda ironic".

"What makes you say that,Tsuzuki-san?"

"Whenever I'm feeling down or thinking deep about something, I always go there and now,Mia-chan, my counterpart, always go there whenever she is feeling down or thinking about something..."Tsuzuki said smiling.

Tsuzuki then stood up to go outside.Even knowing that Tsuzuki is still not finished with his work, Tatsumi allowed him to leave. Then Tsuzuki saw Mia under the Sakura tree. When he got closer, he see Mia sleeping, holding a book.

"She must be studying again...she really likes to read...she is me and Hisoka at the same time..."Tsuzuki chuckled quietly and sat beside Mia. He laid her head on top of his lap and stroke her hair gently. After a few minutes, Mia opens her eyes slowly.

"huh?...oh,Tsuzuki-onii-chan"Mia smiled as she look up.

"Mia-chan, did you had a good nap?"

"Mou, Tsuzuki-onii-chan, You're treating me like a kid..."Mia pouted cutely.

Tsuzuki pinches Mia's cheeks gently."Well you are acting like a kid."

Both of them laugh as Tsuzuki let go of Mia's cheeks.

"Your lap is really comfy,Onii-chan"Mia said.

"Is that so?Well I'm glad..."Tsuzuki said.

Silence. Tsuzuki was watching the sky when he heard Mia humming.Tsuzuki got curious so he asked Mia about what she was humming.But before he could asked, Mia already answered him.

"It's "Beautiful wish"."Mia winked.

"You read my mind again"

"Sorry,can't help it...our final battle is almost here,huh?"

"Yeah...but don't worry, we will able to defeat them and free the people of your world from Freih's curse..."Tsuzuki said to Mia to reassure her.

Mia nods."But...I'm scared...I really hope that this battle would not end to a bloodbath...I really hate fighting especially killing...I always get a bad feeling of what will happen in our future battle...But I always believe in our strength"Mia said.

Tsuzuki smiled at her.

"But to be honest with you,Tsuzuki-onii-chan...I don't know if I want to go back or stay here..."

"Eh?"

"Because...I came to love this world...I came to love you guys, the people who came to care about me despite being a stranger from another world...But I have friends who are waiting for my return...I really don't know what to choose anymore..."

"...Mia-chan...does your heart wants to stay here or return to your world?"

"...I don't know...my heart wants to stay here at the same time, it wants to return...ne,Tsuzuki-onii-chan...will you promise me something?"Mia asked as she sat up.

"What is it?"

"Promise me that if I ever die in our future battle, don't lose yourself to guilt,okay?"

"Mia-chan,don't say that you will die"Tsuzuki said worriedly.

"I won't die but if that ever happens and I couldn't survive,promise me that you won't blame yourself,okay?"

"..."

"Please?please?"Mia gave Tsuzuki a puppy eyes.

"Man,she's like me whenever I do those eyes"Tsuzuki thought as he sweatdrop."Okay, I promise"

"Really?"

Tsuzuki nods."But you must promise me that you won't die,okay?..."Tsuzuki said as he smiled."Equivalent exchange"

Mia's eyes widen before she chuckled."Okay,I promise."

"oh, about what you said earlier...I'm sure that you will make your decision when the time comes...Don't rush...think first before you choose"Tsuzuki said as he stroke Mia's hair.

Mia stared at Tsuzuki then after a few moments,she smiled and thanked him. A little do they know,Hisoka and Tatsumi are watching the two.

"She is really attached to Tsuzuki-san,don't you think?"Tatsumi said as he fixed his glasses.

"Yeah...they are almost like real siblings..."Hisoka said."I have to admit that Tsuzuki is like a big brother to me and ever since Mia came, she is like a little sister to me and a true friend who I can trust with...I may not be close to her like Tsuzuki but I believe that she cares about me like Tsuzuki does to me..."

"I agree with you..."Tatsumi said as he look at where Mia and Tsuzuki is.Mia was pinching Tsuzuki's cheek and the both of them are laughing.Tatsumi and Hisoka smiled a little and they went back to their work.
