16: I Like You

Rin had woken up " ouch ouch..."

" Don't say I torture you. Fried rice. Gyoza. And... Light sauce or vinegar. Your choice. " Zelda opened the bento box

Rin: they smell great!!

He takes a few bites " they're really yummy!!! If you're so good at cookies. Why make me cook bento for you?"

Zelda: not much. Just that I haven't had someone specially make a bento for me. The ones akai makes are boring. Just wanted to torture you a little. I do know, those bentos are akai giving you ideas.

Rin : oops. I got discovered.

Akai; miss. Nagashi has come looking for you.

Zelda was cooking, with her apron on " oh. Nagashi. "

Nagashi: not angry at me? In a good mood too.

Zelda: well. Cooking sometimes puts me in a good mood.

Nagashi: for who?

Zelda: Rin. He's still in the hospital. Thought I'll make him omurice this time.

Nagashi: you never made me that before.

Zelda: you ate many other stuff I made.

Nagashi takes the apron " let me help you. "

Zelda: nagashi. Why do you believe in reincarnation?

Nagashi: because it felt so real. That it was me. Niev is me. Even how rational, how I fought it. It felt me. And when I met you... I knew I wasn't crazy.

Zelda passed him the eggs " when you met me? " He cracks the eggs into the bowl " I met you on the train. Watched you from afar. You ordered apple pie with lots of ice cream like how my dreams said you liked them to be. " He takes the chopsticks and stirs the egg " you also had a smile as you blew your hair in the wind, like how it said you liked. That's when I knew. I wasn't crazy. "

She took over the bowl and put in the condiments and stirs some more " then why didn't you approach me? "

Nagashi: I was 9.

She giggled " that's quite young. " She starts the fire.

Zelda: omurice today.

Rin: I feel like , getting hurt is the best thing that happened to me.

Nagashi: don't say such things. We want you to be well.

Rin: ale. You're not angry at him anymore?

Zelda : over it. Naga helped to make the omurice.

Rin : Naga? More than just ok, it seems.

Zelda. Doctor says you can leave tomorrow. Akai will come pick you up tomorrow.

Rin: you're not coming?

Zelda: I'm busy tomorrow.

Rin: oh... Ok.

Rin: you like Zelda?

Nagashi: yes actually.

Rin : why?

Nagashi: because I was looking for her. Now I have. So I'll stay.

Rin: huh? Never mind that. She's not normal. She... She has blue blood.

Nagashi: she's a demon.

Rin: what?! Wait... What? You know?

Nagashi: I do. That's why I believe in reincarnation. I'm niev. And you... I don't why you have niev's face. I cannot understand that either.

Rin: what... Oh... Ok...

Nagashi noticed Rin get nervous " are you ok? Is it cos I told you about zel is a demon? "

Rin: no... I mean yes. Partially...

Rin: Zelda. You're back.

Zelda: erm yes. Was out doing some scouting. Wasn't very successful. Annoyingly. Tsk. It's never that easy coming to demons...

Rin: I've something to say.

Zelda: what is it?

Rin: I believe. That I was born with this face for a reason!

Zelda: and...?

Rin: .... I like you. So you should look at me! I am the face you've been looking for isn't it?

Zelda: Rin...

Rin: that's all I wanted to say.
