"If my wife can take that hair ornament without any trouble,I'll pay you. But if she's hurt by that you have to answer to Shoa Family." Kuro intercepts and the whole place gone silence.
I can hear few people murmuring:
"Did he said Shoa?"
"He's from the Shoa tribe!"
"Isn't that the most powerful and blood thirsty tribe in four realm?"
"Careful, or you wont even know what hits you…"
"Poor Hii. He pick a wrong person to mess with."
Hii, the seller paled the moment he heard the Shoa Family name. He was sweating and trembling.
"Try it" Kuro nodded at me and point at the vine chopstick.
I hold out my hand to touch the chopstick and instantly the amber glow bright before it turns to silvery white. After it flashed, The stone turn to dark midnight, and I can see ton of small stars glowing like there's a universe exist in it. A crescent moon shone brightly and it was such and amazing view. The vines instantly shot out around me and swirl on my right arm and then extend to my hair. It separates into two. One support my hair into a fine hair adornment that swirl around my hair, while the half part of it became an arm band on my right arm. Both had retain it stone but only the hair adornment had the rainbow beads on it.
"How- that-…" Hii jaw dropped and he look flabbergasted.
"Its your lucky day. It seems to be compatible with my wife. I will give you a gold coin and another one as a bonus."
Kuro nodded in satisfaction and threw two gold coins at him. From scared to totally greedy seller, he quickly took the money and smile cunningly.
"Oh.. thank you, your excellency."
Looking around us, people were gathering and gawking. I took his hand and this time, it was my turn to drag him.
"I'm hungry. Lets find something to eat"
"Oh, I think I saw some good restaura-"
"Just find some stall snack beside the street" I cut him fast.
"But-"
"What? I want to try it."
He sigh.
"Fine. But I don't know anything about food stall.."
"Nevermind that. Lets just explore it together"
I smell something nice three stall away from us. I quicken my step and went to ask the price of the food. Almost the same like a kebab and I don't want to ask what kind of meat they were using. I took a bite out of the kebab and the tender taste of the meat made me moan silently. Damn. This is good. Really-really good.
Kuro was eyeing at me, while handing out some money to the seller. He bought two cups of drinks, sipping on one of it.
"You look like your enjoying that"
"I'm having a foodgasm right now"
And that made him spurt his drink like a broken hydrant pipi.
"F-foodgasm? As in orgasm?"
I raised my eyebrow."why? You don't know there are things call food orgasim or food sex?"
"How the heck people can get sex with food?!"
"Uhm. It's the highest level of euphoric feeling you get by eating delicious food.. duh"
He look at me like I was a total alien. By all means, I am in a way an alien one. I'm from different world for god sake.
Even with that mask of his, its odd how I can read his facial expression. I thought, only cartoon does that. (=-=)
His stopped and then look around.
"Where's the kids? Did you see them?"
it was then, I notice that I couldn't see them anywhere. My heart beat fast yet my breath stuck at the bottom of my throat. I couldn't breath. I look around.
"they are not here." I was mad at myself. Stupid, stupid me. How can I trust two small kids to run around these foreign place? They are new here. Hell, I know like every mother does, even if they had grown up into a fine, wise woman, I would still be worried about them.
But the thing is, they are just kids! And I was busy walking with my so-called husband.
