Akio showed a sad face and said

".....do...what..!?"

"I"m sorry but I have to do this even if you don"t accept me. After this I"ll leave the town with Yae and never show you my face ever again."

Akio explained further if she does not accepts him then he"d leave.

Akio took his face closer to Elze and tried to kiss her.

Elze saw the sudden approach done by Akio but her limbs were under his grasp so she couldn"t even move.

Elze closed her eye and felt something on her head.

When she opened her eyes she saw Akio kissing her forehead

" Be strong , Elze..!, I"ll be leaving tommorow morning the first thing I"ll do. I feel you would never accept a b.a.s.t.a.r.d who had done nothing more than bully you and made you cry.."

Akio then let go of her and opened a gate while also handing her clothes to her which was already kept inside the bag by him .

" Elze you can leave first I"ll come afterwards to the Inn.!"

Elze walked to the other side and turned to look at Akio"s back which was facing her his movements were slow and then the Gate closed.

" I hope this is worth the bet or else I could just go to capital with Yae and settle there."

Akio said to himself while thinking about the risk he took.

************************************

At the other end of the gate.

Elze was near the entrance of the Inn blankly thinking about the words Akio said to her.

Elze went in and Everyone was eating dinner .So she sat down together with her sister still dazed.

" Oh. Elze - chan has bought a new cute dress I see."

Dolan said.

" Elze are you fine!?." Linze saw this and she was worried about her sister.

Elze came out of her stupor and realized that she was acting inappropriately in dinner table.

.

" Dolan San ,this a gift.!.."

" Oh, from whom? your boyfriend I presume."

Dolan said jokingly but Elze had a bit of anger on her face but she hid it quickly.

" From someone I know.!"

Elze was annoyed and talked in a rude manner.

" Elze you can"t talk like this to people."

Linze reprimand Elze.

" Sister, I"m done with my food I"m going to my room. If you need anything just tell me."

Elze said in a rude tone.

Touya didn"t say a word as he knows that it was not his place to talk.

Linze saw that Elze did not eat all the food that was on the table.

Yae had her suspicions but she kept quiet and just ate.

******************************

In Elze room.

Elze was taking off the clothes when suddenly she heard footsteps outside her door and there was a knock.

Elze thought it would be Akio so she wanted to change fast or else He would use gate to get in.

*Scrreeeh*

While she was changing her cloths the dress st.i.tches got torn by the force she was opening it .

* knock * knock

"Elze I"m coming in."

A female figure came in It was Linze Elze"s twin sister.

Elze was not concentrating on the door or her sister but she was watching the dress torn st.i.tches.

Elze was blank for a long time now.

" Elze, what happened to you and your behaviour at the table was weird today!?

Elze suddenly had tears in her eyes .

Linze was scared and confused about what happened to her sister.

" Linze.....Linze .The dress... The dress...is destroyed....* sniff*"

Elze picked up the dress and hugged it.

At this moment flashbacks about Akio were coming in waves into her mind slowly. The time she spent together with Akio since the time they met at the beginning. The memories came in slowly and she started crying more and more.

Linze couldn"t just watch anymore and tried to console her by giving a light hug .

Elze hugged her sister and started bawling out more.

Elze has calmed down a bit

" What happend to you Elze today.? you"re behaving very weirdly. Tell you sister what happend."

" Today...we.."

Elze told all of much what happened with Akio and Linze listened to her.

Time pa.s.sed and Elze did not cry anymore but Linze was a bit angry to Akio and for also making her sister cry but she was surprised as he will give Elze s.p.a.ce and not make her uncomfortable so he"d leave if she did not accept him.

" So Elze what do you feel about Akio .

Do you love him or not.?"

"....I "

" Think before you say Elze so you would not regret it. Keep thinking If you feel that you don"t want him to leave your side you need to go tell him today or if you don"t like him you can just stay quiet and let it be. He"ll probably leave for you."

Elze now said in a strict manner as this had to be solved by Elze herself so she would not regret it.

Linze was tired now and left the room to go sleep in her room and also because she didn"t want to interfere in her decision.

Elze was alone in her room reminiscing about the day she spent with Akio. If she watched the bright side she did have fun with him at time would have a small scuffle but Akio would make it up to her.

Slowly then thought began piling up in her mind if she was Akio girlfriend how her life would be these thoughts went on for a long time and a smile was brought into her face but then the negative thoughts kept on appearing in her mind and she finally decided on her decision.

Elze came out of her room with her messy hair and walked toward Akio room and knocked but there was no reply which means there was no one around.

At this moment another door opened and Yae saw Elze with her messy hair and was surprised.

" Elze,if you don"t mind can we have a talk de gozaru."

Elze was a bit tense her expressions made it obvious.

" Don"t worry Elze de aru, I just wanted to have a chat with you about him gozaru yo."

Yae said in to rea.s.sure Elze than she had no weird motives.

Elze and Yae were sitting in a room. It was Yae"s room.

" I was pretty surprised when I found how you were behaving today while in the morning you did went to capital with Akio Sama but now when you came you were in a bad mood de gozaru."

" You knew we went to the capital."

Elze was surprised as to how Yae knew about their journey.

" Elze I knew about you two. De aru well, It was Akio Sama that told me that you and him were going to capital....so tell me de gozaru what truly happened between you both today.!?"

Elze explained and asked for answers as to what happened.
