“Rahal!”
A voice stopped him from taking another step. He turned to his back, and saw what he was expecting, Miakis running towards him. It had been years since the certain childhood friend left Sauronix in order to become a Queen’s Knights, but he had noticed that Miakis barely changed.
“If you’re coming, you at least should greet your childhood friend before leaving again!” Miakis glared at him when she reached few steps distance from him.
“On the contrary, I was going to the Parliament Building because they told me you’re on an errand there.” Rahal reduced that gap with walking a few steps. “Apparently you’re not… Hmm, that’s strange.”
“I just got back,” her glare disappeared and a grin plastered her face.
“That figures,” Rahal replied the grin with a smile. “Care for a walk?”
“C’mon! I’ll show you around!” She obliged, taking his one hand almost as if pulling him. “So that means Flail is here, too isn’t she? Where is she now? You don’t leave her in the port just like that, do you?”
Not only the outside, Rahal realized that her inside didn’t change at all. Not that he minded. “Fortunately, Flail is going to be a mother soon, so I don’t want to force her to leave her egg alone, even if I can. I came here by boat from Spinacks.”
“Flail is what? Wow! It’s only been a few months since the war’s finished, now she’s going to have a baby!”
“The males have started this ‘sorting’ as soon after the war’s ended.” Rahal told her. “They actually wanted it to sort sooner but then that incident came.”
“Ah, that’s too bad… but she’s alright right now, right? Is her mate some dwaggie-horse I know? Ah, that’s the Parliament Building.” Miakis suddenly pointed as they walked pass the front of the mentioned building. “Was the Senate Building. They renamed that since the system’s changing...”
Rahal sighed. “I’m not a fool, I completely aware of that, Miakis, thank you. And didn’t Roog tell you the reason why Lance has left Sol-Falena for a while?”
“What for?” She watched Rahal’s face changed. She then voiced in disbelief. “Don’t tell me he mated with her!? Oh that Roog, I’ll kick his ass when he got back from Beaver Lodge tomorrow!” Miakis almost jumped in excitement and anger. “But I bet they’re going to have a cute baby, I can tell.”
“Of course it’s going to be beautiful like the mother.”
Miakis laughed at his last comment. Her laughter didn’t change too. Miakis was like what she had been when they were a child.
The Falena Queendom may have changed, Flail may have grown into a mother, and he himself may have turned into an adult, but Miakis would still be the same old Miakis. Rahal was grateful for it.
“And women in Sauronix… you don’t choose any of them for yourself?” She asked it with the same playful tone she always had since years back.
“Please,” Rahal voiced displeasure. “If any of them is more beautiful than me, I won’t hesitate. Thankfully, none of them are.” His lips preformed a smile as Miakis greeted his words with another laugh.
“Here, here,” Miakis gave him a pat at the back. It felt the same like what she always gave them back then, only they had been on the head. Well, it had to be too childish if she had given the same pat in the head in front of public, but if she really had… he wouldn’t mind…
“Have you eaten? There’s this new restaurant in Sol Falena. It has a menu for Sauronix food.”
“I think I didn’t come all the way for another Sauronix taste.”
“Oh. Let’s get the usual, then. I mean the restaurant that I always went to when we’re out to the city. It has this delicious Sol Falenan dish that you’d die for.”
“That sounds good.”
Rahal followed her as she talked more about the places they passed, and the change in the capital itself. He looked as his Miakis eyes when she spoke… they shone as like they had always been.
Wait. His Miakis…?
When the word unconsciously popped into his mind, he started to wander if he really wanted Miakis would always stay like that… if he really wanted that Miakis and him stayed as childhood friends. He knew that he was grateful that Miakis remained the same. But he didn’t expect that Miakis would stay like that in the future. It wouldn’t be so long until a man took her heart and who knew if Miakis still gave Rahal the same treatment like she’d always given her.
He would hate the man. He didn’t sure if Roog would too, but Roog would give the man something to teach before Rahal gave his, with his own way.
Would she also change if he met this ‘more beautiful’ woman than he was searching and marry her? …but then again, he wouldn’t like any female treat him like or more than Miakis always did.
He almost groaned when he brought them all together in a conclusion. He was most afraid of what Miakis would do to him if this turned out bad… and he was also frightened of what Roog would do to him if this turned out good…
It’s the time for him to make this relationship go a little bit further.
