152 – Visit
Luna and I headed to a nearby crepe shop. Holding each other’s hands tightly
“You’ve gotten prettier since I haven’t seen you. I fell for you again.”
At my smirk, Luna smiled happily and turned her head to me.
“I think Ross has changed a lot too. He has become more handsome and manly.”
For some reason, Luna’s face turned a little red when she said that. After sneaking away from her gaze, Luna asked in a small voice.
“… Did you miss me?”
“I couldn’t stand it even for a second, so I waited like this.”
It feels like more strength is put into the hands that hold each other. Luna, who was still uncomfortable with her body, always had excessive force in her left hand. It left marks on her hand that held her.
But it’s okay now. I don’t know if I became numb to her pain during the vacation, or if her pain was overshadowed by joy because I was more happy about meeting Luna.
It is clear that I am happy to be able to hold this hand.
I have arrived at the crepe shop. As I opened the door to the store, I whispered softly in Luna’s ear, who naturally approached me.
“Be careful. I am a beast in heat.”
I watched with great anticipation to see how Luna would react to the mischievous prank she did in two months.
Luna flinched for a moment, then she glanced at her surroundings and gestured to her ear.
As I inadvertently brought her ear closer, sweet words mixed with light breath tickled her ear.
“I know from experience that Ross is a vicious beast.”
After saying that, Luna raised her hand and wrapped it around the nape of my neck, adding in a small voice as if muttering.
“So, I studied hard all this time. To be the perfect keeper for Ross.”
It was me who was surprised. Even her ears turned red with embarrassment, she never expected Luna to say such a thing.
After I burst into a good laugh at her unexpected blow, Luna shyly dragged me into her shop.
Since we had an appointment to have lunch with the members, we decided to share one crepe.
The strawberry crepe Luna ordered was a little too sweet, but thanks to the kind Luna who fed it directly into my mouth, I was able to enjoy it.
Even Luna embarrassed me by her unexpected behavior.
I looked around and licked the whipped cream on my mouth with my tongue.
As I looked at her bewildered face at her sudden surprise, Luna looked up at me for a moment and then she gave me a pretty smile.
“No Ross.”
That look is so lovely, I sent a blank smile and a dumbfounded look.
Luna said, acting brazenly, wiping the whipped cream off her hands with a napkin.
“A beast in heat can easily lose his temper, so you must follow the instructions of the keeper.”
“That… Not good.”
The urge to bury her face in the pure white nape of Luna’s neck suddenly soared. To endure this is torture.
Looking at it with a pitiful expression as if it were too much, Luna let out a slight moan.
“It is bad to stimulate sympathy… Be patient.”
I looked at Luna with grim eyes. Her gaze met Luna’s cheeks and lowered her gaze. Seeing that, I asked in a sly voice.
“Are you going to train me?”
Without answering with a sigh, I smiled at the figure of Luna getting up from her seat and followed her. Looking at Luna from behind, I realized that her hairstyle had also changed.
The back of her hair was tucked over the shoulders on either side of her, revealing the white nape of her neck. This could be a stimulus.
I don’t think it’s a joke to say that he’s in heat.
While Luna was checking out, I made eye contact with a person in the corner of the store. Blonde hair. He’s the guy who had a snowball fight with me earlier.
It is more likely that he followed Luna rather than accidentally coming to eat crepes.
I finished her checkout with a smile and proudly grabbed Luna’s hand as she approached and left her shop.
***
I got out of the Bold Station with Luna. There were so many people on the street as it is said to be a resort in the north.
I entered the alley following the address Arya gave me. It wasn’t long before I realized how accurate Arya’s description of the huge pink house was.
The pink house built against the white snowy mountain backdrop was designed with the artist’s soul in it. Arya’s boast of being one of Bold’s specialties must not have been bluff.
As the red lion knocked on the carved iron door, there was the sound of running feet.
She thought it was Aria, of course, and as soon as the door opened, she raised her hand to greet her, but after confirming that it was someone else who opened the door, she immediately lowered her head.
“Hello… Do you! This is Arya’s friend Ross.”
“My name is Luna.”
At our greeting, the woman widened her eyes and smiled softly.
“Welcome, how much Arya talked about you guys. It is not unfamiliar even when I see it for the first time.”
At first I thought this person was Arya’s older sister. In terms of her appearance, I felt closer to her older sister than her mother. But I know Arya is her only child.
Then this person who resembles Arya must be….
“I am Lisa, Arya’s mother.”
As expected, the guess was correct. Lisa, who was quite young, graciously placed her hand on her cheek.
“You have no idea how much my family expected you to come. It’s the first time Arya’s friend is coming home.”
I see, if she was Aria’s personality, she would have called her friends every vacation. She had no intention of digging too deep.
We were guided into the house by Lisa. At the same time, along with the sound of approaching footsteps, someone shouted loudly.
“Ross, Luna!!!”
I haven’t seen Aria in a long time and nothing has changed from before… No, she looks like she’s put on some weight. She has become quite blessed. Her pretty appearance was the same, but her cheeks were full of cuteness.
Arya, who was happily running towards us, slowly slowed down, then she frowned and looked at me and Luna.
Like a child waiting for Santa at Christmas, Arya started walking, looking very disappointed that she had nothing in our hands.
Aria’s mother must have felt ashamed at that appearance, “Oh my, this kid is really….” She muttered softly to herself.
I don’t have any presents… ? She took out a gift that she had previously put in the storage room.
I even took out the chocolate cake I bought after standing in line for over two hours yesterday and handed it to Luna. Of course, Luna was taken out separately. In a larger size.
Arya, who was walking slowly, her expression brightened so that you could see her eyes widened even from a distance, and she ran towards us with a bright smile as if she had never done that.
“Ross!!! Luna!!!”
In my heart, I wanted to eat honey chestnuts as an offense, but her mother was by her side, so she took care of it. Arya hugged me and Luna with open arms and skillfully snatched the presents from our hands.
Isn’t this supposed to be a thief, not a wizard? Maybe she should have some serious career counseling with her mother.
“hehehe, I really like Ross and Luna the most in the academy.”
“… Thanks.”
While Arya went to drop off her presents in her room, Luna and I followed Arya’s mother to her drawing room. It was early, so Kane and Lacard didn’t seem to have arrived yet.
We sat at a luxurious wooden table and were served hot tea and dessert. While drinking tea with Luna, Aria appeared with a running sound.
“Please give me a strong cup of cocoa~”
“No. Did you eat breakfast too? One cup of cocoa a day.”
Me and Luna laughed at Aria puffing out her cheeks. After all, if you are with Arya, you will be far from her quietness.
That’s Arya’s charm. Vigor and vigorous activity. She feels like seeing her 4-year-old nephew.
I think Kane’s dark circles got worse than before thanks to Aria, but the two still got along very well.
As if Arya was trying to explain everything that happened during her vacation, she started talking the moment she sat down.
As Luna and Aria looked at her happy conversation, she laughed aimlessly when someone knocked on the door.
The conversation stopped, and Arya rose from her seat expectantly. Arya’s mother told us to wait and she and Arya went to greet her guests.
“My mother was so young, she was startled.”
I wonder if I’m the only one who thought so, said Luna as she sipped her tea.
“We look a lot alike. Does Luna look a lot like her mother too?”
After thinking for a while, Luna put down the teacup and said.
“Um… I haven’t heard much of that.”
“Then I’m glad.”
Luna tilted her head cutely at her answer. It’s a loveliness that makes you want to kiss it to your heart’s content.
“Why are you happy?”
I answered Luna’s question with a smirk.
“Then the most beautiful person in the world is Luna alone.”
While saying that, I tried to sneak a kiss on the cheek, but Luna covered my mouth with her hand.
“No. Wait.”
I sighed at the sight of Luna speaking resolutely, as if commanding her dog.
While I was thinking about grumbling, Luna’s soft lips touched my cheek. It feels like a pleasant feeling in her heart is spreading through her body.
Luna said with a pretty smile as she stroked my hair as if to compliment her puppy.
“Nice job Ross.”
A smile of joy spontaneously smiled at the satisfaction of being filled with happiness in an empty heart that had not been filled.
Feeling a gentle stroke of her hair, I suddenly had this thought.
Isn’t this a situation where you shouldn’t be in a good mood… ?
But seeing the cute Luna who was stroking her hair eagerly, I couldn’t help but bow her head again with a stupid smile.
Bruh, don’t be a dog please
