Chapter 6 - I'm in love with you

Christina spent most of her time with Sosuke while he showed her around the kingdom , for the first time in her life she was feeling free and given unlimited liberty .. although she didn't think about but she was now starting to fall for Sosuke and spending two months with him made her realise that her sadness had already went away all because of this man who believed in nothing but peace yet his soul was in deep sorrow.

She decided that she'd spend her last days on earth with him .. she couldn't stay here forever anyway .. she walked up to him as they were helping people in the town who needed help .. "Sosuke .." he looked at her with a smile and clasped the dust of his hands "Yes ..?" she kept fidgeting but her face was resolute with no sign fidgeting .. "I .. I" a little girl from behind Sosuke tugged on his sleeves "Sir Sosuke .. my mother said thank you for helping her with her. illness .. and that she'd like to invite you to dinner with Lady Christina" she twisted her body sideways like a toddler who's inlove with another toddler .. he the looked at Christina with a raised eyebrow "Lady Christina .. would you do me the favour of coming with me" she sighed inwardly.

After a moment of silence she nodded her head and took the little girl's hand as they approached an inn across the street "Mother is going to be happy when she sees the both of you" she skipped happily with a bright smile on her face and her green eyes glistening in the sun , *knock* *knock* the little girl didn't let them knock again and started pulling them in inside the inn "Mother look who I have brought with me"

A middle aged woman entered the room with a tray of meatloaf placing it on the table "Oh come in Sir Sosuke and Lady Christina" she clasped her hands with her apron on ..

They nodded their heads gracefully as they sat on the seats "I apologize for the dusty surroundings .. the clay bricks keep falling apart and somehow even if I keep cleaning they wouldn't stop falling anytime soon" then Christina looked at her shaking her head sideways with a smile "No it's fine .. we don't mind especially if we're in your house .." the woman smiled cheerfully hearing the words coming out of the woman she adores ..

"Oh right .." she then took off into another room taking out steak out of the stove .. "My mom makes the best meatloaf .. I hope you like it .." the little girl smiled cheerfully running around the table like a little girl she was .. Sosuke broke a conversation between him and Christina as the awkward silence filled the room .. he started making jokes making Christina giggle a bit .. they kept talking about their great deeds in the town and other cities around the kingdoms .. when the little girl saw them laughing she sat in between them listening to their jokes and fun adventures they had in the past few weeks .. "Wow .. Sir Sosuke .. can I become your apprentice ..?" her eyes glistened with joy and awe looking at Sosuke with a pleading expression.

"When you get older .. that's a promise .. until then keep training and become the best student you can be for me to praise .. okay.." the little girl jumped in joy and put her little arms around his waist "Thank you Sir Sosuke .. I'm never going to disappoint you .. ever" after the little commotion they continued talking all about their daily lives .. around the kingdom and they put in little fantasy stories inside their adventures to make the little girl more glistening that she already was .

"All done .." after the talking the lady put a pot with a fully cooked steak on the table with a few greenery around in their plates .. "Your food is amazing .. uh .." she then realised she hadn't told them her name even when they helped her back then .. she hastily responded "Laura .." Sosuke smiled at her "Sister Laura I am honoured to eat your heavenly food .." the lady blushed slightly averted her gaze away from him knowing exactly that he was in someone's hands .. After they had finished their meal .. the lady carried the plates and the pots to the kitchen .. leaving Christina and Sosuke alone .. "So you're going to leave the earth in a few months right ..?" he then stood up and walked out of the door looking at the bright lights of the kingdom and the town's in a distance .. she followed from behind and stood by his side putting her hands on the balcony .. "Yes .. and I don't think I'll be coming back anytime soon " .. their talk didn't go further as the lady pulled Christina inside the house .. "I am sorry Lady Christina .. " she then lowered her head slightly and smiled at her .. "I know you have an affection for sir Sosuke but you're hesitant to tell him .. although I'm not experienced in these kinds of things .. I recommend that you tell him before you leave .. it might be the last time you get to speak with him after all .." she brought up Christina's confidence and courage to go up to Sosuke and tell her how she felt ..

She looked at the lady for a moment and pulled her into her arms .. "Thank you sister Laura .. I will never forget you .." although she thought she didn't deserve Christina's kindness she didn't push her instead she hugged her back .. with a tear in her eye .. Christina then looked at her one more time before heading outside where Sosuke kept starring at the starry black sky that seemed to be endless .. "When I was young I wondered about something .. something people would mock me for as I starred into sky that seemed to look back at me every time .. .. is there an end to the starry sky Christina ..?" she looked at him and turned to look at the sky .. "I don't know .." she brought up her courage and walked up to him .. she grabbed his sleeves turning him in her direction .. "Christina .." he looked at her confused .. "Sosuke .. since I will be leaving this world .. I want to lift something heavy off my shoulders .. in the past I couldn't tell you so I continued to live by your side afraid that if I confessed you would reject my feelings .. and even now you've captured my heart and this is a feeling I've never felt before .. Sosuke I have fallen inlove with you .." tears flowed down her face with her head lowered down not wanting to feel embarassed by what she had said .. Sosuke looked at her with a gawking expression "I didn't think you would be the one confess first .. but I have fallen inlove with you too Christina .. but I never told you this because of the person who you were going to marry .. even though he wouldn't harm my soul .. but he would harm you for being unfaithful .. my feelings will never change even if my memories faded away from inside my head .. I would still love you .. " she raised her head slowly looking at him with a teary face .. without thinking Christina wrapped her arms around him .. "I'm very glad you feel the same"
