*ring ring*

alaude: why are you calling me again?

giotto: heh.... don't be so angry. Risu is at my house and she kinda don't want to leave. Please bring nina along. Heh...

_______________________________________

alaude: return it. The map that you stole.

risu:eh... and I thought I wouldn't be caught for stealing for such a small thing.

alaude: why do you need it?

risu: for something. That is obviously not your buisness. Return nina.

alaude: one for one.

risu: no problem. I'm done with the map anyway.

alaude: * points gun at risu's head* tell me. Why do you need the map?

risu: you don't have to know unless...that guy is going to do it. Never mind,he never has the guts.

alaude: who is that guy?

risu: you know him. If he decides not to be cowardly than I guess we will meet again.

risu: nina !! nina !! you okay?

nina: huh....yea...why?

risu: you haven't been focusing. You were staring in blank space for quite a while.

nina: nothing much... *blush*

risu:ohor... nina likes somebody.

nina:I haven't !!!

risu: liar!!! nina is liar!!! So who is it?

nina: I told you its not already !!

risu: than why are you blushing so hard?

nina: really...? eh !!! You tricked me !!

risu: so who?who?

nina: doesn't matter isn't it. Cursed children don't get to enjoy love like other people do. I know that already.

risu:nina.... *hugs* don't be that disappointed. So? what did he do to make my nina blush so hard over her?

nina:he....saved me.

risu pov:

no wonder nina likes him. As cursed children, we have no one to rely except ourselves. Before I met nina, I was alone too and so was she. We were sold as tools and weapons to help complete what our buyers can't.

Getting saved wasn't an option, there were no such things as miracles. You either live or die. Its as simple as that. So...getting saved was a pretty big thing for us. we would do anything to return the favour.

but for nina to like him so much. He must have hit a soft spot on nina.
