Fantasy Pristine: Our Bond

Chapter 28's

"Ah, Brother Minji. Welcome to." Sapa Rara is friendly when she gets the sound of the bell on her door and finds Minji who is carrying a large pizza box.

"Well, another eating race?" guess Rara who has long known the habit of Minji every time he brings home a box of pizza.

Minji grinned wide. "This time, there's no race just yet, deck. Enjoy this winter with a few pizzas. Kan, good for nemenin nugas." Word's excited.

Minji walks into the spacious and comfortable living room as Rara shifts herself aside, giving her sister room to enter.

"I made hot chocolate. You want?"

Minji. "No papa deck. Anyway, just for dinner too. All right, same with you."

"Oh, okay if that's it!"

Minji just smiled faintly watching Rara who was always enthusiastic in responding to him. For her, Rara was the only person who could restore her mood for the better. Although to get it does not require a lot of struggle because their likes are the same.

Perhaps, because they have the same preferences, they both become closer and live together in a house that has been provided by Minji's father if he chooses to study abroad.

How nice it was to know that Rara was going to be her college friend again. Golden opportunity for Minji.

"Sir Minji? Don't keep on talking." Rara said while distracting the girl.

"No punks. Just, more thoughts. Oh, yep! Want to take Silvia with Hyorin? Ah, Tania too!"

"Can! Can be! Reunion while the stories of the Junior High seemed exciting." Reply Rara is getting happier. But, the pleasure did not last long when he realized there was less than names called Minji.

Chloe's...

Rara scrunched her face confused. Every time she wants to have a dinner with her Junior High friends, Minji always forgets Chloe. Rara is saddened by Chloe who always wants to be able to have time with her.

He remembered his meeting at the cafe a few days ago. The girl revealed everything she felt while in Junior High. Honestly, Rara could not bear to see the girl put on a sad look once she knew that she was no longer considered in her group.

Minji. Why does he always forget one person? What happened to Minji and Chloe? I know, their relationship in Junior High is not as smooth as Minji with others. Is it because of me? Minji was happy to be near me. Chloe is too. But, why is it as if what they are doing is like a competition where they are fighting hard to get me?

Chloe's. I'll try, we meet this afternoon! Even for a moment, but MUST!

Rara's mind is full of confidence. This afternoon, more precisely before the meal was held, Rara will draw up many plans for her meeting with Chloe later this afternoon.

Rara wants to treat all her friends fairly. Including Chloe though. Deep down, she longs for the memories of herself with Chloe. They always share the madness and humor of the story if the two girls meet each other. Everything is always their laughingstock. Even little things like ants are laughable.

Of all her best friends, only Chloe is the one she considers most valuable. Although they rarely meet, Rara is well aware of the problems that Chloe experienced at that time. Although Chloe repeatedly lied to him, Rara kept telling her.

Chloe, she's been her sister from the beginning until now. No one can stand in the way of his intentions. Whatever the threat, Chloe must still get justice as well in playing with him.

"okay! Eight o'clock in the night we start the show." Celtuk Minji after receiving a call from one of his best friends. "What's wrong with your face?" asked Minji who found the strangeness on Rara's face.

"No papa. I just feel... Pizzas are less for the five of us. You know for yourself, right, that Hyori ate the most?" said Rara who tried to stabilize her tone to seem normal and as if there is nothing she is hiding.

"Is that so? Okay fine! I'll order again. Let's make a drink first!"

"Good..."

It never crossed my mind that I would find a world so much more colorful than mine. A world that is very noisy and crowded will be humans with a variety of their activities. A world that is always dominated by activity.

I've never seen violence there. There may however be hidden behind the walls of the buildings they live in. They show their beauty in every way. The expressions are diverse in each of their owners, their work and the bonds they form.

Not infrequently, I saw them coexist both alone and in groups. I'm rattled. I feel lost in this world. My family's. They all split and I ended up lost without any clear direction.

Lost in their world with the problems I harbored. I never stopped glancing at the towering buildings. At night, they display millions of beautiful reflections of color and illuminate the highway.

I feel that beauty. But I can't feel anything inside me. Blank.

Until one day, somehow I was able to be reunited with a girl in the forest. He was in danger and was about to be harmed by my enemy. I don't know why at that time... I choose to protect her and let myself get hurt?

Actually, what makes you think to protect her? I even saved a little kid who got lost and experienced the same thing with that girl. Wh why? How could?

In my world, I am known as a cruel aura. I finish off anyone who stands in my way without mercy. I didn't even cry when I saw them die at my hands.

But why in this world would I choose to be hurt for someone I don't know? Is this a factor of war involving this world unintentionally? Is it because the people of this world are innocent? What if there was one of them who would betray me from behind and along with my enemy, they stabbed me in the back?

Wonder. Of all the humans in this world, only this girl could interest me in learning anything in her world. This childish and crybaby nature, made me think of forgetting my former self.

Although it was difficult to bear the burden that the enemy had shed on me and also helped this girl search for her lost best friend still, there was something that made me even more curious about this girl.

He who had recognized me at that time through the book he had found in the library was quite a surprise to me. Information for you, the first time I put on a surprised look. Yeah, that girl is the cause.

From the beginning of the meeting until the current journey, I still faithfully accompanied the girl until she found her best friend. I wouldn't hesitate for anything if it was just to protect them as well as everyone in their world.

In fact... Waiting for this girl to solve the problem inside her.

In the middle of a world dominated by busyness, a gentle breeze came to the world and swept away the heat in it. Same is the case with the girl who is currently adjusting her breath while enjoying the cool breeze in the winter. A few strands of her hair danced finely following the wind direction.

Together with his friend, they both relax for a moment on the roof of the hotel building that they do not estimate how many floors.

"Are you better?"

Black Aura voiced her question after a few minutes of letting Chloe fight the red hue on her cheek. In addition to waiting for Chloe, she also busied herself by enjoying the view of the city that until this afternoon there were still many people passing by.

Chloe let out a loud breath. "Huf... Yes." and then scowled with sweat pouring profusely.

“What the fuck was with your face earlier? Why is it that red?” black Aura comments that never separated from the flat look.

Chloe was aghast at the comment and started babbling strangely. “I-it's not

just like you think! My face was red because I was exhausted! I was angry this morning. Then in the afternoon, I cried! All that drains my energy, you know!”

“But why did you pull my hand off? What is my fault?”

Chloe froze. Oh, my God, this guy. There is so much he wants to know.

“Sorry. I'm reflex.”

“Oh.”

Ding! Dong!

“What's that sound? Enemy?” black Aura who spontaneously drew out his sword.

“Wow! Chill... Chill... Voice only my phone.” Chloe Excited. He touched the side of the hot Black Aura sword and reflexed his hand back.

“A-wh! Your sword is hot!”

he nodded while blowing his blistered hand. Black Aura approached Chloe later. He checked the girl's hand.

“Try see.” Her request.

“E-eh? Okay?” Chloe gave him her shaking hand.

“Completed.”

“Kok fast? What are you doing?”

“Move your pain.”

“Move pain?” Chloe repeated that sentence. He still doesn't understand. Expeditiously

is that the teenager healing a wound? Is that one of his abilities? If ‘iya’,

so cool!

Black Aura nodded slowly. “The pain in your hand is now on me.” Black Aura

showing his right hand, though covered by his black cuff. “I can also transfer my pain to others.” Evidently. Then, lower his hand.

“You're not in pain?”

“Ngak. From the beginning, I couldn't get sick. In fact, even if hit by a slash.

I named it Shift Ache.”

“Shift... Ache?”

In english, though. "Shift' has many meanings. One of them moved. 'Ache' is a synonym of 'Pain' which means pain. Means if combined means…

“Move pain.” Prune the real Black Aura to read Chloe's mind.

“Basic!” Chloe clucked.

Finished discussing Black Aura's abilities, Chloe turned her back on the notification on her phone. He was shocked to find a message box that someone had just sent.

The message was sent at an inappropriate time. However, it is difficult for Chloe to say ‘no’ to the sender. Because of this, Chloe also wants to meet him even though she knows that her current situation is not possible.

“Before..” Chloe requests time to reply to the message on Black Aura.

The teenager simply nodded and went back to enjoying the beauty of the atmosphere of the city below

winter sky surveillance.

Chloe also opened the message vibrating.

- My bestie~

Chloe Hi! What again? Ano... This afternoon you have no time? I really like you: ((

- Chloe

Hiya! I'm out of the house again hehe. But I will try ;)

- My bestie~

Whoa! Really?! Thanks a lots! As always, in the cafe we often go to!

“Eh?"

Chloe's stunned. He was not like himself who at that time confidently replied to Rara's message. This time, he had a piece of doubt in his mind. The doubt referred to Black Aura and Aoi. Both teenagers need her presence.

Why is it so hard to say the simplest words? Just saying 'no', his mouth and tongue even his hands that didn't need to talk was hard typing the sentence.

"Aura Black. What am I supposed to do?" Chloe asks Black Aura for help while showing her phone screen on Black Aura.

Black Aura lowered her head to match Chloe's height. At first glance, he found a series of conversations between the two girls.

"You want to come to him? What about Aoi...?" Black Aura turned her head in astonishment.

"You know for yourself, right? Our journey has come so far. If this problem is not solved immediately..."

"I knew... But that's my question. Rara and I are very close. But, our playing time why seem narrow? Does this world disagree to bring us together and let us have fun? Youre right. My world is really noisy. I'm even nineteen years old living here feeling annoyed."

Chloe interrupted Black Aura's words quickly with a sad look. In bonding with others, there are always obstacles that they have to face. Not infrequently, Chloe is also made to worry about the choices she gets from her world.

As it is now. Focus on finding Aoi or having fun with Rara for a while? The hardest choice he ever made. Plus, the two teenagers were the most valuable people to him.

Black Aura was silent for a moment. He felt a sense of anxiety in Chloe's heart. Not only one, Black Aura also found sadness and disbelief in reality.

From the very beginning, all of these problems came from their wars. Somehow the fact made him feel guilty about letting his friend suffer his grief. There was no other choice but to let her have some fun for a while with Rara.

Black Aura sighed tiredly then turned her face the other way. "Go away. Perhaps, only that girl can heal your wounds." Her speech.

"Eh?"

A proud smile was engraved quickly on Chloe's face. The girl immediately hugged Black Aura so happy.

"Thank you, Black Aura! Don't worry, we won't be long. Sure is! But, you don't stay with me alone!"

"Yes." Yeah."
