Key lowered Mizu's hand and brought her face closer to Mizu's. Their breath was held for a moment and their eyes clashed, the tip of Key's fingers cold from nervousness was immediately grasped by the warmth of Mizu's hand. Although Mizu's hand was smaller, but her hand felt so warm.
Key clasped Mizu's hands to his chest. Mizu who was initially surprised thought that his heartbeat must have been heard clearly by Key, but it was unexpected that Key's heartbeat was also so clearly heard by Mizu. He could clearly feel the tremors in Key's chest. Slowly both of their eyes closed and their lips were attached to each other.
The afternoon silhouette with the reddish orange sun and let the light from the surface of the lake water make their bodies sparkle.
"Ufths... Ma's.. I'm sorry " said Key suddenly.
"Huh?" Mizu gawks when she hears Key's apology.
"I should have asked you first."
"Ah.. A.. I'm fine." said Mizu.
"I was gonna give you this. Would you..want to accept it? " tanya key while thrusting a bracelet on Mizu.
"Gee... Real nice. Thank you Key. " said Mizu with a sweet smile.
"Give it to me, I'll put it on for you. "
"Um.. But why in this heart shape is there a picture of the key?" ask Mizu curiously.
"Because to me, Mizu is the key to my happiness" Key replied as he poked Mizu's nose. Mizu's face suddenly blushed.
"Then Key's? "
"My own is a padlock. Since the key is on you, then only Mizu can open my heart. I promise I will always look after Mizu and not make Mizu cry, because Mizu's smile is so beautiful."
Mizu involuntarily shed tears, her heart feeling tight and sore. But at the same time it felt so warm and comfortable. Key who saw Mizu crying immediately hugged Mizu and stroked Mizu's head gently, he also tried to stop Mizu's crying but Mizu even more crying.
"Hey, stop. If you keep crying like this, I'm afraid people will think that I'm doing you bad." Key said.
"Hiks. hicks... I'm sorry, but I'm having a hard time stopping. Hiks. " said Mizu.
"You stopping or I'm gonna kiss you again?"
Suddenly, Mizu's cries stopped. Key tried to hold back his laughter but was caught by Mizu and he was about to hit Key. When Mizu was ready to throw her punch, Key immediately dodged to the back and ran away from Mizu. Mizu who was wearing a knee-length skirt could not freely run, it made Key mock her while running and did not pay attention to the road. As a result of Key stumbling and starting to lose balance, Mizu who was trying to chase finally hit Key and they fell together.
"When do you want to stay in that position?" shion said from behind the tree.
"Shion, Karin, Shino, since when have you been there?" key asked when he realized their three friends were hiding behind trees.
"Since the first kiss." Shino replied guiltlessly.
"Ka.. You guys peeking?"
"Hey.hey.it's a public place, there's no such thing as peeking out in the open like this. You are too brave. Has Mizu accepted you yet?" shino said she did not accept it.
"Of course, it wasn't." said Key timidly.
Ftftthh... Huahahaha...
Shino, Shion, and Karin laugh at Key's timid mannerisms with red-flagged faces. While Mizu from earlier was just silent and covered her face. If they kept mocking him, it would only make him cry. Although Mizu is a cheerful girl, but she is also gentle and easily moved.
"You see Key's face? He can act silly too. Hahaha " said Shion. Shion is not only Mizu and Key's playmate, but he is also Mizu's cousin.
He even introduces his girlfriend to Mizu and Key and shows their affection in front of Key. But it turns out that the girl only uses Shion to get close to Key and vilify Mizu. When his actions are discovered by Key and Shion, they go to him and warn the girl without Mizu's knowledge. Too embarrassed to meet Key and Shion, the girl eventually decides to change schools.
- At the same time in Youri's house -
"Sir... What happened to you? " asked Kichiro when he saw Youri holding onto his chest.
"Eitherway. I feel sad, tight, warm, and happy all at the same time." Youri replied.
"Is sir sick? Do I need to make you some medicinal soup, sir? " ask Kichiro who is starting to panic.
"No need. Oh yeah, where's Rikuo? "
"Hm... Looks like it's still around here. Is there anything that you need? " ask Kichiro.
"No, not me. But you. "
"What do you mean sir?
"You must learn to make seals from it. Once you master it, I'll leave you here to guard the endless cavities. While I will go to the outside world with Rikuo. "youri said.
"Can you take me with you, sir? I'm worried about you, I will... "
"No, obey and learn as soon as possible" Youri said.
"Good sir. I will definitely not disappoint you. "
- At the residence of Matoba -
"I have to get out of here, but how? The seal in this room alone is so powerful, even though I haven't touched it yet, but the pressure of the energy is so pronounced" muttered the stealth scorpion.
Tap...
Sriiyang...
"Sir, are you okay? Hang on, I'll help you " said a little girl with short black hair and wearing a black kimono with light brown leaf pattern and the typical symbol of the Matoba clan.
"You.. You smell weird, who are you?" ask the scorpion demon. He felt strange because the little girl had the smell of humans and also the smell of fox stealth.
"I can't explain to you now, sir. If we can meet again, I'll tell you who I really am."
"Argh. "the stealthy moans of the scorpion while holding his left arm.
"Ah... these wounds..did they burn you with spell paper? " the little girl said as she saw the burns on the arm of the scorpion demon.
"I can hold it, you better open the seal so I can go."
"Ah wait, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary spell paper. If it was poisonous spell paper, it would be very dangerous if left for too long. I'm going to put down the powder." said the girl as she picked up the bottle containing the powder.
Sriiyang...
"Thank you. If we meet again, I'll repay your kindness." the scorpion demon left after the spell seal was opened and left the little girl.
