"Let's talk about 'us', shall we?."
Glacia's P.O.V
Small matters can be a bigger matter. They say.
Me and Cracker sitting on the couch of our own. A coffee table between us. Gosh, this is awkward than I thought and the pressure is getting thick. I sighed out. I was about to say first but Cracker cut in.
"We both know, we are difficult to be together but this marriage brought us together. To be honest, I'm against it but It is useless to resist it." I nodded in agreement. "I agree. I also think the same as yours. we have no choice but to cooperate. It's wasting my time, to throwing my anger at this, even you. I'm doing that cus I don't like it so. What do you say? Any other good suggestions?" I asked him as he silent for a moment. He leaned on the couch. "No, Furthermore, let's. Work together, face this arranged marriage. I'm taking Peros nii-san 's words, we make impossible things here." wow, this is out of my thoughts. I thought his gonna rebel or getting furious but...he agreed with to do so. "Alright, Let's face it together then and Playing a role."
"Umm, this may be awkward...since we are together, mama said also peros nii too--" I raised my eyebrow as I guessed his words. I grinned. "Makeup with me? Nah, it's alright. Make It So." He blinking his eyes a couple of time and his face is written with confusion. "Everyone deserves a second chance, no matter how worst it is or evil you are. " I keeping beamed my smile. "Oh, and you're forgiven."
Cracker's P.O.V
"Make it up? Nah, it's alright. Make it so." I still can't believe, that was easy. "Everyone deserves a second chance, no matter how worst it is or evil you are." then she keeps smiling. This is bad... Her smiles...it attacking me. I don't want to admit that her smile is really beautiful.
"You said so yesterday. You didn't forgive me. How that so easily you forgive me? I threw you at the wall, I yanked your hair roughly and I nearly hit your friend. Just why?" I asked her. She tilts her head to me and there. The bright smile of her, she softened her gaze. "Like I said. Everyone deserves a second chance. And I do mad at you, I also said that. But if it is not your brothers and little sister came to me, until today. I'll be like yesterday. I don't like to be angry." That's a heavy word from her. "So, now are still hate me?"
"Hmm, good question. I don't know...how about you? I bet you still have hatred toward me." she looks at my eyes to eyes. Yes, I don't like her but today's different. Well, this is difficult..."If it's. I don't mind. If you are, go on. " she closed her eyes and tilted her head to the side as she beaming her smile. I silenced for a while after what she said to me. That's easy!? Easier than I thoughts!? I thought this will be complicated. At least we both now are in progress. To be with each other. I grinned as I offer my hand to her"Now, let's start over and be friends." she nodded. "Let's get along together. As a partner and a friend too." then she took my hand and we shake our hand.
"Charlotte Cracker. One of the sweet commander."
"Glacia Arduenes. Nice to meet you. Stupid biscuit." I irritated. She innocently smiling.
"Nice to meet you too. Four-eyed Shrimp woman." I grinned more in pride as I called her that. "Who're you calling shrimp. I'm 2 meters .okay, stupid giant biscuit." She narrowed her eyes as she puffed her cheeks .I chuckle at her action. I do enjoy teasing her like this. "But still. A shrimp. I'm 3 m, I win." She narrowed her eyes as She let go of my hand. "Tsk." This is interesting. I glad the atmosphere here aren't like just now. This is warm, as like we both are close. We both no longer strangers, a fiancee. Soon to be husband and wife. But those are just status. We're just friend...right? Just friends.
I clapped my hand and summon some biscuits with my ability. "Here." she was confused a moment, then she took and smiled as she thanked me. I took mine and eat it. While eating my biscuit, my eyes darted on her. She ate it politely and enjoyed too. She... Indeed gorgeous. I heard many rumours and I read articles from the newspaper, how strong she is also ruthlessness. I never see that side of her. Now in front of me, a beautiful and also intelligence too. Eating my biscuit.
Both combined strength and beautiful.
One thing that makes my heart flutter, is her smile. That smile of her's... "Cracker." I snapped all my thoughts and focus on her. "Are you alright? And why is your face red?" My face!? red!? Am I blushing!? Oioioi. Shit, I need to cover. "Huh? I'm fine. Just this room is very hot. " nice cover.indeed. What kind of fucking excuse I made!? "Ahh, indeed. The windows are not open. Me too. Let me open it then." I'm saved!! I signed in relief. A wind came in through the window after Glacia opened it. It blew her black hair as her hair as if we're floating. I was stunned by her beauty again. I felt a heat on my cheeks.Am I started to like her? No no, we just friend only. There is no way she's gonna like me. Or there is?
"Since this place is very huge. Naturally, people will get lost. Do you want to have a little tour with me? Since Brûlée is busy." I asked her. She nodded. "That'll be lovely.". we both stood up and head to the door.
"Shall we?"
"Of course" then we both marched out.
