"Huhh... What the hell are they, I did want to go to Zoe's store, but not to meet her I just wanted to take my lions that fell there." I was a little annoyed while choosing the items I would carry.
"Yahh, I think for a while I will only wear one earring, even though it's my favorite earring." My welcome while looking at my left ear from my room mirror.
Since they left me with Zoe both Luna and Lia so often make jokes and mention me about Zoe and me when it just happened a few hours ago even for a small problem they still had time making jokes like that.
I even had to let go of my earrings left behind at Zoe's pastry shop because if I picked them up now their jokes would get even more crazy and I couldn't possibly avoid them anymore, though it was the earring that I liked the most of all the earrings I ever used the shape of a round bright red with white bird feathers mixed with pink.
The earrings were a birthday gift from my mother when I was 7 years old and that's why red fur earrings became such a valuable item for me, I look good when I wear it especially with my yellow and slightly reddish hair at the ends.
"Humm... What's up Kie? you look upset." Ask mom.
"Yahh, not really, I just accidentally dropped my earrings on the cake shop... uh! didn't you work?" I turned around and asked.
"Yes that way, so today I will help your mother here." He said while holding my mother's shoulder.
"Owh... "
From behind me my mother came by asking me because I looked like I was upset and that's right, I was a bit angry, indeed, but my anger was more towards sadness because I left my favorite things that were very valuable to me.
And from behind my mother my father also came holding my mother's shoulder with a small smile towards me and it was quite confusing because my father should also be trading in his bakery, but it turns out he's not working.
"Yoshh. I'm done." I said while taking my sword.
"Do you want to go?" asked my father confused.
"Yes that's how." My answer.
"You look a lot like mom when you were young." Mom said to me with a thin smile.
"Yes very similar." My father's.
"Of course, I'm your son ma'am." I walk out of the room.
Starting from the color of hair, eyes, and, until my face does look very similar to my mother's as well my nature and personality is more towards my mother than with father which is why people are often mistaken in distinguishing us if they look from behind especially my own father.
That's why my mom always tied the end of her hair and put it on one part of her shoulder while I only wore a black ribbon on my head as a bandana for people to tell the two of us apart.
"We're both ready, hurry up." Call Lia from outside the house.
They're faster than I thought...
"WELL, WAIT A MINUTE." I sat in a loud voice.
"Then I'll go first." I said as I ran towards the living room.
.
.
"Remember not to trouble your friends, beware Kie." Mom said to me from the front of the room.
"Okay, ma'am, I love you guys bye bye."
With a little talk with my parents in front of the room I then went running outside the house leaving the two of them standing in front of my room door to meet Luna and Lia who had been heard calling me from outdoors.
...***...
"So, are you ready?" I ask them both excitedly.
"Certainly hehe." Lia said with a smile.
"It's already gone, sooner until it's finished sooner and sooner we go home to rest." Luna said to us as she walked.
"Ookit." Sahut Lia with spirit.
Without lingering any longer after I went down to meet the two of them who were sitting waiting in the front seat of my house, the three of us immediately went to start our adventure journey looking for some medicinal herbs, the three of us walked to the city gate with each other's supplies according to our needs.
Along the city road while walking we met with other adventurous friends and greeted each other with smiles as well with a slight wave of hands, but not with Lia who is very energetic to respond to all the greetings because that is how her personality is.
...*****...
"So, are we going on foot?" ask Luna to me while walking.
"Hm... If it could be better not, it would take a long time, how about we ride a merchant caravan?" I said while asking back.
"That's a good idea." Luna Sahut.
By continuing to walk towards the city gate we thought a little about how to go to our destination in the forest in order to speed up our travel time, no exception with Lia who is still busy greeting everyone who passes by using her sweet smile
I then gave a little advice to join the merchant caravan to shorten our travel time because it was impossible for us to go just on foot to such a far place, at least hitchhiking to the outskirts of the road alone is very helpful.
.
.
.
"Waaa!! it's Rin!" lia said as she ran towards someone who was sitting near a merchant horse carriage.
...
"She's an active girl." I said while looking at Lia who was greeting someone.
"I agree." Luna Sahut.
.
.
Long enough we walked the city streets we finally saw the great wall of the city gate in front of us, and right before us Lia with a slightly surprised expression while pointing her hand pointed at someone like having recognized some of the faces that were in front of us sitting near a carriage of merchants and ran straight for the guy.
From afar I saw Lia who was very excited to talk to one of those people who looked like a woman, that person also occasionally stared at me and Luna while throwing her familiar smile at me, Lia seemed to be very happy while talking to that person like a close friend.
"Hi Kie's... Luna, how are you guys?"
"Oh it turns out that it's you Rin, yes of course we're fine." Luna's with him.
"I hear you need a ride, do you want to join our group?" rin said giving me a ride.
"really?" many ensure.
"Hahh, thank goodness we were very helped, thank you Rin." Luna said to him.
Sure enough after we approached the man immediately greeted the two of us who turned out he was Rin one of our close friends who was also an adventurer, he immediately gave us a ride when he found out that we needed a ride to get to our destination quickly.
Rin probably knew that from Lia because the two of them were talking even more so Lia just smiled happily when I looked at her, Lia people who are very helpful if in the business of asking for help are very rare there are people who refuse the smile of cheer after Lia asked for it.
...♡❁❁✧✿( Luna )✿✧❁❁...
"But where are you going Rin?" ask her.
"I? yes me and the others will escort this merchant caravan home to Felicia kingdom, yahh.it will take at least two weeks to get there, he said, moreover, we will take a detour through the forest to stop by the remote villages that are there, so I can give you a little ride." Answer Rin.
"Oh so yes."
Perhaps it was just a coincidence that we were able to hitch a ride in the merchant caravan that Rin was escorting because they were taking a detour by entering the forest to get to the neighboring kingdom, but even so it still takes about 2 days to get there, of course it's because we set out using a horse carriage at least that's my calculation.
"So, when can we leave?" ask Rin.
"Rummer..." Rin muttered looking up at the sky.
...
"This is for you, Lia." Rin gives Lia an apple.
"Waaa!! thank you, Rin."
...
"Yahh, maybe soon, after preparing the haul cart next door." Rin answered while biting her apple by pointing to the right behind her.
"Owh.. alright, then is there anything we can help you with?" kie told him.
"No need, we're almost ready anyway." Sahut Rin's.
While sitting on a used wooden crate we talked to Rin who was also sitting eating the fruit in her hand while occasionally staring at the people who were preparing some crates of merchandise and stuffing them in into the wagon, we will all depart after the haul-off wagon is completed.
While Kie and I were talking to Rin about our departure, Lia just sat quietly behind the caravan cart next to Rin, occasionally biting on the apple with the cheerfulness she got from Rin, seeing her like that really calmed me down because Lia already did not look scared anymore, I just smiled with relief at her expression like that.
"Owh! hi Rhom." Said Lia greeting someone.
"Yoo... How are you Lia?" he said while asking.
"Yes as usual hehe." Answer Lia.
When the four of us were talking suddenly there was someone who came to us and of course as usual Lia immediately greeted him because he was someone we knew, that person was Rhom an adventurer who looked like a slacker, but he was actually quite a strong person.
"Woy Rin we're ready." Rhom told him.
"REally?!" ask Rin about that guy.
"Hahh... What is your job just sitting and relaxing Rin?"
"Why do you think I became like this?! do I need to remind you who's on guard every night along the way while you're all asleep enjoying each other's wonderful dream world so, what's wrong if I relax?!" rin said with a somewhat annoyed look.
"Y-yahh, forget it." Sahut Rhom slightly shifted his gaze.
Looks like they have their own problems, I hope there are no problems on the way later.
Seeing the two of them who were filled with discord I became a little hesitant with our trip, they were indeed one party, indeed, but I know that they are not familiar people even though so little debate is common in friendships, I just hope that this journey will be able to run smoothly.
"Oiii. You guys get on fast, we're leaving." Someone from a distance.
"Waaa!! it's Cia! hi Cia.." said Lia while running towards the horse carriage in front of us.
"Kie let's go up." Take me
"What about the two of them?" ("____) said while asking.
"K-we let him hehe.." I replied.
When the two men were arguing again someone called us from a distance to get into the horse-drawn carriage to begin the journey, hearing the call of that person Lia went straight to him and got on the same horse carriage while Kie and I got on the horse carriage beside us without caring for Rin and Rhom who were still busy with his business.
Rin scolded Rhom right beside his ear and did not care much about Rhom also getting into the same horse carriage as me and Kie as well as Rin who was riding, but still with his angry state.

...*****...
...
"You're always like that, you've always been careless and made me miserable, you guys always sleep first without caring about the circumstances around us and force me to stay awake and because you are always sleeping soundly during the changing hours of watch I have to fight alone against monsters every night, you never gave me a chance to enjoy my sleep in peace."
"Does that mean Cia was included?" ask Rhom a little flat.
"Of course not, that little Cia in she deserves to sleep resting, but you guys especially you should be able to behave a little more deftly and be alert not to just pay attention to yourself..."
...
"Hoahhh... How long have they both been like that?" tanya Kie is sleeping.
"It may be 4 hours from our departure." Sahut.
"Didn't you want to stop him?" ask Kie again. "•IT'S A MATTER OF COURSE•
"I don't want to get involved." My answer is a little flat. "•IT'S A MATTER OF COURSE•
[2:45]
"It's past lunchtime." I said quietly while staring at the watch necklace clock.
Starting from us departing from the capital until now we are in the forest streets Rin is not ceaselessly nagging to the point that Rhom already looks bored and does not really care about it anymore, so did the two of us even start Kie who fell asleep on my shoulder until she woke up Rin still did not stop scolding Rhom and said all his complaints.
"They can't be close." •_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ to look towards Rin and Rhom.
"I agree." •_____Kie Agree.
