EN | An encounter she will never forget | ᴄʜɪʟᴜᴍɪ

Tears flow without her being able to hold them back.

She shouldn't have grown attached. This, she only discovered until it was too late. Now that the bonds are firmly in place, will she have the will to break them with her own hands?

They say ignorance is bliss, but can one still be happy after realizing that this man she is infatuated with is her enemy without any free will? After realizing that he is just a fragile mortal while she travels through the eons? After realizing that no matter what happens, there will always be an excruciating end to this relationship?

Mortals are selfish, as Childe has proven to her so many times. But do near-gods have the right to be as well? Lumine has never wanted to answer this question so much in her life, and it is finally Childe who gives her the much desired answer.

"I will prove to you that even you have the right to happiness."

This fanfic was originally written in French (available through my profile), and I decided to translate it to English myself.
