Both Nana and Raven had finished their little greeting, Nana still had a huge smile on her face while Raven unconsciously turned her gaze to Blake as if trying to find a detailed explanation for the situation she had gotten herself into. It seemed like there was nothing more to say between them after that, but Blake caught Raven's look, and even though he was about to say something, he was surprised by what he heard next.
"What are you doing with her?" That usual monotonous voice came from Raven, it could be said that there was nothing wrong with her question, but even so, she sounded a bit strange since the tone with which she said it was quite different from usual.
Blake could feel a little pressure behind those words, he was going to answer that he was just showing Nana the town, but it seemed like they weren't going to let him talk today.
"We're on a date!" And once those words spoken by Nana were heard by Blake and Raven... A strange situation began to develop, especially because of the huge misunderstanding that was generated due to it.
In addition to having heard that expression, Blake had frozen as Nana approached him and hugged his arm causing him to feel like a slight odor that was surely characteristic of her was perceptible to him, as well as a generous lump that served as a pillow for his arm. Nana had obviously made that little joke to lighten the mood a bit, although she herself knew that she exaggerated a bit and was about to say that she was just joking, but before she did, she regretted a little for acting without thinking.
A sudden chill ran through her body, which was a bit absurd since the place was not far from being compared to a sauna, she didn't understand the reason for that feeling, but when she saw Raven's emotionless expression staring at her, she realized that maybe he had done something dangerous.
"Don't listen to her, Raven. I'm just showing Nana the town." Blake had come out of his initial stupor and then explained that to Raven. He knew that Nana was joking, but Blake was one of those who knew that jokes didn't have much effect on Raven. "And actually I didn't want to bother you if you're too busy, so we'll continue on our way."
Blake moved behind Nana and took her by the shoulders before starting to push her out to finish their little visit to the smithy, but before they could get to the door, Blake stopped at what he heard.
"Blake..." Raven's voice was louder than usual, which was already enough for Blake to turn his gaze to her and quickly approach.
"Something happens?" Blake asked that question as the curiosity within him began to grow as to what Raven had to say.
"I just... I just wanted to know if you're busy tomorrow." Raven wasn't looking directly at Blake as she said that, and she didn't understand why.
"Tomorrow? I don't really have anything planned, is there anything you need me to help you with?"
"I was thinking of sending you a letter explaining the request I had in mind, but since you're here..."
"I understand. Don't worry, you can count on me." Blake had a small smile on his face, he liked interacting relatively normally with Raven, and he was about to ask her exactly what the request was about, but she interrupted him once more.
"Tomorrow I will explain everything to you in detail, after all, I will accompany you for it." Raven closed her eyes; she was busy thinking about what she had just said seriously... And that was because she had not planned to accompany Blake …
"I see, see you tomorrow then, Raven." Blake understood that she wouldn't say anything else, but that information was enough for him and he said goodbye to Raven one last time, waving his hand in the air while continuing to drag Nana.
She was spouting some complaints about Blake's treatment, but he wasn't even paying attention to her as he waved his hand harder when he saw Raven wave goodbye to him in the same way.
The exit from the smithy brought with it a light breeze of fresh air that had been enough for Nana to relax due to the more pleasant change in temperature, she felt that Blake was no longer forcing her to move against her will, but before she could complain, she had to keep quiet when she heard Blake's voice.
"I'm sorry, Nana. I hope you don't get a bad impression of Raven, she's not very good at interacting with others…" Nana didn't have a bad opinion of Raven, instead, she felt interested in her, not just because she felt that the two of them could get along very well, but because she felt a strange feeling during the small moment that they interacted.
Nana was silent as she thought about that idea, and she had realized that it was not the first time that she experienced this strange situation since she had felt the same way in all this time that she spent with Blake despite not understanding what did it mean.
She noticed that she had been more silent than expected, Blake was looking at her as if he waiting for an answer, so it didn't take her long to formulate some words in her mind, as well as some ideas that she would like to check since she had her doubts about whether she was in the right thing.
"Don't worry, Blake. I felt a nice aura when I was with Raven, and if there's a chance, I'd like to get to know her even more." Nana had a kind expression on her face as she was speaking sincerely. "And I also wanted to apologize to her and you, I don't want you to fight because of me."
"Haha, don't worry. I don't think you did anything wrong." Blake chuckled a little at Nana's concern as he thought it was unnecessary.
"No, of course I do. I would be very angry if a girl I'd never seen in my life hugged my boyfriend like that... Although I don't have..." Nana became a little depressed with her own words, but before she continued with her small act, a confused expression that left Blake's mouth made everything seem to stop at that precise moment.
