The Reincarnators
chapter 44: the feeling

"repeating," said kazuto, katia and ren who were in the kazuto room to celebrate the completion of their exams.

"so kazuto I heard from upperclassmen there's a strange rumor that you and noble lousse were dating when the festival was it true, ?" tanya Katia who looks like she's introgating kazuto to give an answer until she's satisfied.

Kazuto himself glanced at ren for help but soon he dodged him and ate his food, he wanted to help kazuto, but there are things she won't want to do one of which is overcome your jealous boyfriend.

"so, I waited," said Katia who crossed her arms and looked towards kazuto with frightening eyes.

"yes, you can tell if I and senior lousse are trying to restore a long-lost bond" kazuto said, making Katia's heart uneasy.

"i. ka. tan, kazuto what do you mean by that, ?" ask Katia who hopes if this is not what she thinks.

"as I said earlier," said Kazuto who explained to katia if kazuto wanted to restore their lost bond.

"so is there anything else you want to say, besides," said Katia who was almost at her limit and was about to cry, to be honest, the only reason why he remained there was that he wanted to know if he still had a chance.

"yes, senior lousse asked me to meet with the king and queen, and I said yes, I can't keep running and being a coward about this," kazuto said that he felt he had to tell her about his relationship with the royal family to katia and ren, but before he did that katia had already come out of her room and ran out of school somewhere.

"katia, what are you." said Kazuto who was trying to catch up with Katia, but was stopped by ren.

"already kazuto, just leave katia," said ren who was holding kazuto by holding kazuto's hand, to be honest he felt sad with katia, but she feels that Katia is also guilty of not telling her feelings to Kazuto, and allowing others to precede her.

"but ren," said kazuto who was then trying to release his grasp from ren which strengthened him.

"you've chosen the noble lousse, kazuto, just let katia receive what she deserves, she'll definitely be fine," said ren who tried to hold back the increasingly rebellious kazuto.

"what do you mean, ren, ?" asked Kazuto who did not understand the meaning of ren's words.

"it's not that you and your noble lousse are dating, therefore you said you'd meet with your highness to ask for their blessing," said ren who made kazuto stop and looked towards ren, who was at his side, thinking about how could his misunderstanding go that far.

"wait excuse me, can you please say that again," said kazuto who stopped and looked at ren to listen further to his explanation.

"it's not you and your majesty dating" said ren who repeated his words.

"hah, not ren me and your majesty are not dating," said kazuto who crossed his hands, he did not expect if there were any rumors that said if he and lousse were dating, I'm sorry but he won't do that, especially with his brother.

"so why do you want to meet them, instead of that if you want to ask them for their blessing, ?" ask ren who does not know what his friend is thinking.

"ren, listen carefully" said Kazuto, who began to explain what happened and the actual relationship between kazuto and lousse, which caused the ren to fall apart.

"if so, we have to find katia, let's hurry," said ren then they also went out to the city and looked for katia.

meanwhile, Katia is currently sitting in the tower where they ended their first date while looking up at the night sky.

"hah, I'm really stupid, of course kazuto will definitely get a girlfriend, he's cool, smart, strong and reliable of course if senior lousse is interested in him," Katia said.

Honestly in his heart he considers kazuto as a good friend but that feeling begins to change when they embark on their adventure, which is, at first Katia tried to dispose of the thought because she was afraid when she said it, then it would make their relationship change, but at this time she regretted it, at this time her heart adoration had been taken from her, and what's even worse is if he won't be able to compete with the person who took it

Her majesty Lousse surpassed her in every way, she was also able to do something that she could not do long ago, so katia could not do anything, either, he couldn't blame anyone because from the start this was his fault, if only he had been faster then maybe, just maybe he would have had a chance, he said, if only he was braver then it was possible if he just had a chance with her.

"i'm really stupid huh," muttered Katia who was unaware of the sound of footsteps approaching her.

"katia, I found you" said Kazuto, who was breathing heavily because he had surrounded the entire city until he somehow saw this place and thought that maybe katia was here.

"why are you here, ?" asked Katia who was wiping tears in her eyes.

"i came here to explain something" Kazuto said.

"you don't need to explain anything, I already know," said Katia who forced her smile to try to be happy for kazuto's sake.

"you know," said kazuto who got the nod from katia.

"it may be difficult for me to heal the wounds in my heart, but at least I want to say that even if it's just once, kazuto I like you please be my girlfriend," said Katia who already knew the answer because it was after saying that she intended to leave but before succeeding kazuto hand stopped her.

"let go of me kazuto, I'm done," said Katia who wanted to leave immediately, she did not want to listen to kazuto's answer but a part of her told him to stay put perhaps because when kazuto stopped her, she did not want to listen to Kazuto, he might still be hoping that somewhere from the bottom of his heart he still has a chance.

"do you not want to hear my answer" said Kazuto who made the cry on Katia's face even more swift.

"i already know the answer," said Katia who turned her face away from kazuto.

"in that case, I'll say I'm new to this, so please help" said Kazuto, who then made a cry on Katia's face dry up and looked at Kazuto with his face.

"sorry kazuto, but if you want to joke about this you better stop" said Katia who does not believe even though she was dating a noble she instead made this kind of joke with him.

"i'm not kidding, I really want to start your relationship" Kazuto told Katia, who was still in disbelief.

"then prove that you really like me" said Katia, who wanted proof instead of sweet words.

"alright," said Kazuto, who was approaching Katia and gave her a kiss on the lips that made Katia startled and then blushed with embarrassment.

"a-what are you doing," said Katia who was still flushed red because kazuto suddenly kissed her.

"you said if you wanted a proof so," said Kazuto who was similarly shy but he could think of no other way to convince Katia other than to kiss her.

"alright I believe, but before that I want to know what your relationship with the noble lousse is" Katia said.

"me and noble lousse are brothers," the honest Kazuto said to katia, he only hoped that with this their relationship would not change.

"heh, wait a minute, brother," said Katia who, when she did not understand which way they were talking.

"yes, I just found out my true identity, I am the brother of lousse shuya hexion and the second son of the king and queen, Cassian von hexion" Kazuto told lousse.

Then after that kazuto began to explain what happened on that day to katia until it was finished and when katia was silent until she laughed, at that time he became embarrassed because he behaved like that, but he did not regret it at all because now he can be with the people he loves, he said, at that time he without hesitation jumped to hug kazuto, where Kazuto returned his embrace, at that time Katia made an oath if she would never hesitate again and would always be by his side whenever.
