' What's up with her all of a sudden?'' Yūrei wondered because as far as he could remember, he had never seen Megami lose her composure to such an extent.
" Hey calm down, your gonna attract something..." Yūrei whispered in a panic, If she kept on screaming like this, he was sure that something else would come knocking at their door.
Instead of listening, it looked like Megami was even more angered by his word's.
" Don't you tell me to calm down!, I won't calm down!–" Megami-Chan screamed with anger While a stream of tears fell down her rosy cheeks.
Her voice was extremely cold as if she wanted to vent out all her frustrations there and then but Yūrei wasn't to keen on letting that happen.
He moved towards her like a flash, Megami saw his figure blur before her eye's, in her mind she thought he was fed up with her like everyone else and was going to do something terrible, But against her expectations.
" It's ok, Am not gonna hurt you so you can cry all you want ok, just please don't scream"
" if it helps I could listen instead, I know i don't look like much but If you have anything troubling you am all ears...." Megami felt herself being pulled into his embrace, Yūrei gave her a warm and tight hug.
In that instant Megami didn't know what she felt anymore, The only one who had ever hugged her was her dear mother, Hearing his soft and comforting voice against her ear made recall the good times she once had.
Instead of pushing him away like earlier Megami just lay'd within his embrace, sniffling every so often as tears fell from her eye's onto him.
Yūrei remained silent while she cried within his embrace, Though he didn't speak much throughout the whole endeavor, His simple silence was far more comforting to Megami who just wanted to vent out all the frustrations in her heart.
A cool feeling suddenly washed over Megami, She felt her mind slowly turning clear as if all her frustrations was slowly vanishing, Normally she would try and find out what was happening but this time she decided against it, All she felt like doing now was remaining in Yūrei's embrace hoping that all her worries would disappear.

A few moments later Megami finally stopped crying.
Yūrei who was still hugging her was caught off guard when she suddenly pushed him away again, He landed on the dusty bed with a wronged expression though he decided not to complain about it.
" This never happened, Do you hear me.." Megami said in a cold tone, it looked like the Ice empress was back to her usual self or so he thought.
He raised both his hands in submission, with a helpless smile on his face.
Yūrei chuckled a little while shaking his head lightly " Am guessing your feeling better now?" He asked with a smile.
" Hmph.." Megami didn't reply, instead she avoided his gaze before giving a light nod.
' Looks like she really doesn't know how to communicate with people ' Yūrei snickered to himself before standing up from the bed, his body was covered in dust making him look comical no doubt but he didn't seem to mind.
"...Thank you" Megami muttered underneath her breath with her hands crossed Infront of her chest yet Yūrei was able to pick up on it.
" Hahaha Your welcome" Yūrei laughed a bit, He found the scene of her trying to act polite a bit cute and adorable.
" Mind if I asked something though?" He said.
" I guess I could entertain your antic's for a bit, So what is it " Megami said while staring at him with her head raised high, a look of superiority in her eye's though he didn't seem to mind, instead he was quite relived that she was back to her old self.
" Uhhh yeah, Well I don't mean to pry on your open wounds but what do you mean by bastard daughter of a rich snob?" Yūrei asked with a nervous expression, he knew he might have stepped on her sore spot but what she said was still etched on his mind, in layman's terms, he was simply curious.
"....." Megami on the other hand just stared at him silently, No one knew what she was thinking but her silence just made Yūrei feel even more nervous.
' Maybe I shouldn't have asked...' He was just about to tell her to forget about it when she suddenly spoke up.
" Promise me you won't tell anyone.." Megami gave him a serious look, Yūrei who wasn't one to play with something like this nodded.
Megami let out a light breath, Her eye's looked as if they were being filled with melancholy" Well you already know that am a bastard child so I guess I should tell you the whole story..." She said before sitting back on the bed, Yūrei followed suit, sitting right next to her with an attentive gaze.
Megami smiled lightly when she saw his serious demeanor, For someone to seem so interested in her for a change made her feel a bit strange though in a good way.
" My mother was a mistress or at first she wasn't..., When she was still alive she told me that she was my father's first wife, When she met my father she said it was love at first sight" Megami let out a helpless smile, a trace of genuine sadness became visible in her eyes before she continued.
" She said they had plans of getting married together but unfortunately when the time arrived my father's family disagreed because my mother wasn't of adequate standards or so they said..., Those bastard family members actually threatened to strip my father of his inheritance if he decided to go ahead with the wedding...., My father was enraged and wanted to fight back but mother cautioned him against it..."
" In the end, Thanks to my mother not wanting my father to sever ties with his family or cause any internal conflict, He ended up marrying another woman as his first wife, My father didn't want to lose my mother so he went ahead and got her pregnant against his families wishes..."
