Against the Inevitable Destiny
Chapter 46 - Dating With Maya

[Shopping Center ]

“What do you think?”

Maya came out of the dressing room showing off her new clothes to me.

“Good.”

“Only that?”

“Ya.”

Actually, the clothes Maya wears are so good that it can make any man can not turn away from her.

Then why did Riyu answer indifferently?

Don't misunderstand his reaction. He doesn't care about Maya's appearance. He was just exhausted for some reason.

“Then let's go to another store. I will definitely make you speechless.”

In her heart Ryu said that he had left her speechless.

Ryu decides that in the future, he will not take Maya shopping anymore.

She doesn't know that Maya is completely out of control while shopping. Whatever caught his attention, he would definitely buy it.

Not that Riyu was stingy, she did not care at all about the money she spent.

What made her exhausted was the sheer amount of items Maya had bought, it was more than what Riyu had been selling for these 2 years.

And that was compounded by the insistence to comment on her clothes. I don't know how many clothes Maya has worn during their dates.

“Hah.

......................

[Are you okay, Mister? ]

Ceres spoke in my mind. He might be a little worried about seeing me right now.

"Don't worry. I'm doing fine. I'm just a little tired."

I am currently sitting in one of the cafes in the shopping mall in Yozora City. Maya went somewhere to buy something, I couldn't follow her because the place was quite sensitive for men. Well, you know what it is.

Usually I'll be enthusiastic - ahem I mean, I'll keep following Maya everywhere. It's just, I'll be mentally exhausted if I go there in my current condition.

It's hard to imagine what Maya would do to me there. It would probably make me die of shame.

“Ara, it seems you are exhausted. This is the service of our store. Please enjoy.”

As I was sitting down to rest, I heard a woman's voice. The sound was quite seductive, it also gave a mature and gentle feel.

“Trusted-”

When I turned to look at the woman.

I even saw a beautiful woman with long black hair who was straight. She wears an elegant kimono with a traditional feel. She was a perfect fit when she wore that dark purple kimono with cherry blossom motifs.

'She's very pretty.'

In my heart I speak.

I felt an adult aura from him, as if he had lived life long enough.

“You will make others misunderstand if you keep looking at me like that, mister.”

She said with a gentle smile and a little teasing.

I just realized that I had been daydreaming while looking at him. It's quite embarrassing.

Okay stop cursing me. I'm not daydreaming about her beauty or anything. Meiku is after all the first beauty (in my eyes).

How I said it. I felt a familiar aura from him.

Just excuses? No I'm serious.

“Ah, sorry. It's just that I feel a little familiar, have we met before?”

L tease her? No no no. This is not what you think. Suer, I feel a pretty familiar aura from him.

Okay I know I might lie a lot about flirting with beautiful women. But now I'm being honest, I'm not trying to tease her.

Didn't believe? Come on, please believe.

“That is a good reason to attract the attention of beautiful women, handsome masters. It's just that you have to be careful when you're dating or you might get caught cheating.”

She doesn't even trust me?

“I don't.”

“Shutt.”

Before I could complain that I wasn't teasing her, she covered my mouth with her finger.

'Um, his finger is sweet.'

Shit, what am I thinking.

“Riyu

Maya came towards me and stopped when she saw the beautiful woman who was putting her finger on my mouth.

“Hm? Who is he.”

Why are you looking at me, I'm innocent here. Someone help me.

“It...”

“You must be this handsome master's girlfriend right. You should be more careful in guarding her or maybe she will be stolen by me.”

Releasing her finger, the beautiful woman said to Maya fearlessly. That's great, I admit it.

“Stolen? She's she? That can't be happening. It might even be the opposite.”

Maya looked at the beautiful woman sharply. He previously shook his head, not believing that I would be stolen by the beautiful woman.

I should be happy with his words. But with his last words I don't know if I should be happy or not.

“Is it….? I'll take that as a challenge. I'll go first, be careful in taking care of her, little girl.”

The beautiful woman turned to leave after she accepted Maya's challenge, at least in such a third-person perspective. He disappeared in the crowd, I was quite surprised by that, but I didn't have time to think about it.

I know it won't end quietly. And sure enough, I saw Maya smiling coldly.

“Small girl. Hehe. This is the first time anyone has dared to call me like that other than guru.”

Maya muttered in a soft voice.

I pretended not to hear it and tried to turn my face away. But before I managed to do so, Maya asked me coldly.

”Do you tease her?”

“No I don't. I swear. I don't even know why it became like this.”

“Hmm. Alright I'll believe for now.”

“Hah..”.

At the high place the beautiful woman was still observing Maya and Riyu unnoticed by the two of them.

“What a sweet little girl.”

……

……

……

“Hah... It's a great day.”

Good thing my date with Maya ended without incident. I was worried that he would be annoyed by the words of the beautiful woman in the cafe. But fortunately not.

Huh..just I don't know how to complete my mission. I think I'm running out of time to create a romantic atmosphere.

I saw Maya, she smiled gently. We walked together side by side on a lonely road.

‘Well, at least he's happy.’

“Good if you are happy.”

I'm saying.

Maya stopped walking and then held my wrist.

“Riyu.”

“Hm?”

“I want to give you your gift.”

“My gift?”

“Gift for successfully beating me.”

“Ah, the.”

I smiled bitterly considering the incident. It was an incident I did not expect.

“Ya.”

“No need, I don't want anything.”

“Really? Are you sure?”

Maya looks at me and smiles cunningly. What's he planning? Is there a gift that interests me?

“Ya, i- “

Before I finish my words. I felt sweet and warm lips pressing on my lips.

Maya....he kissed me?

A what is this? I kissed? By Maya? This... isn't this upside down?

Sigh, I don't care.

I wrapped my hand around Maya's waist and pulled her closer. Maya responded by wrapping her hands around my neck. And then, we kissed for a long time.

[First mission completed ]

[Congratulations, sir for completing your first Mission ]
