| Back to Y/n’s Point of View |
–
Time was hanging by the edge, i was finding it rather difficult to even mutter a word, my mouth refused to open as i please.
“Y/n.”
Ei for once that felt like eternity, atlast called out my name, yet those felt very much like thorns to me.
I turned and took a glance just by the edge of her face, and yet to meet the eyes, why is that i find myself rather avoidant. Was it because of Makoto… Or the event that happened… Or perhaps i haven’t yet forg–
“Y/n.”
For twice i heard the word come, and this time it was at its sharpest.. or rather i should say authoritive. But, what caught ny attention more the most is, the danger of her stepping closer. Now she was just one step away from me.
“Yes, Your Excellency?”
“Do you still intend to treat me by the same formalities, despite what i have done to you?”
……. Silence again continued to stretch across horizons. Strangely, it is true, she is correct, i would normally be rebellious. However the spark, the vengeance this time did not seem to lit, perhaps i had lose the purpose the moment i had seen and heard Makoto’s word, and for that i was rather becoming more curious of who had done it instead or what.
“Y/n, must you intend… To keep the silence longer … Or is it, are you finding ways to buy yourself time…”
Ei’s softness, whose voice i found was rather alluring, i was out of late to realize, as i turned and found the closeness from the both of us turning even more dangerous… Yes, it was…. In the name of Teyvat, ridiculous…
One approximate or two, and then one palm, a skin of touch slided across my face down to my chin thus i felt the pull her fingers, it was if i am forced to look right straight into her amethyst pair.
After another stretch of seconds, i could not even control where my eyes are taking turn, it was but a glance to her full exposed lips, and inevitable i would internally scream at myself for doing so. The closeness felt, exactly a forbidden thing.
‘We are by mean enemies.’ i thought.
‘But, this is, also your homeland, the nation you fought with all of your blood.’ Another thought came.
“I am very much finding it strange… Why would the electro Archon have such a strange taste of captivating one’s attention?” Finally for once i formed a sentence, despite all these ridiculous thoughts i am having.
Ei, whose fingers held my chin, as if some kind trophy, spoke.
“I have been meaning to ask you, if my sister refuse to say so. What exactly happened in Khaenr’iah?”
“Your sister merely wished, to stubbornly fight against the cataclysm.”
“That wasn’t my question.”
Spoke Ei, with a stubborn tone.
“Or rather, do you even know at all? You have so much to hide.” Ei, murmurs.
“.. All i did was chase, only to come too late, i neither know the answer nor am i even close in finding.” Thus i answered to her curiosity, but that face, did not look like it was the satisfaction to her query.
Strangely, i felt or i thought to myself. Am i dizzy? Or the world perhaps is giving me some sort of hallucination. I felt the distance from us closing, perhaps just one more, and we could be touching.
This time, my internal thoughts screamed, every ounce of its desperate voice, to move— damn it move. And yet, i am very much a fool to remain standing.
I could feel her breath against my nose, i glance down from her lips, again. As full as moon and those eyes whose conveyed abalze.
“If you insist very much on giving me those look, it is as if, you are, looking at Makoto, is it not?” Ei’ whose mutter hinted jealousy, and yet i was very much out of my mind to even listen.
She moved even closer, her nose touched mine perhaps…. Just one move, and those lips are min—
*Click Click*
A pair footsteps echoed through the air, or i would say my keen senses were rather at its peak of sensitivity.
We both stared, and those our eyes conveyed, the acknowledgment.
It was heavily, a forbidden closeness, i would frown upon it. I, a traitor to my land, A Fatui, a fallen warrior in a hands of a god?
“Go.” Ei, whispered, hastily.
And that was all i needed.
……..
“Oh may what do we have here?.”
Miko whose confusion found the both of us with a strange distance, me leaning against the Sacred Sakura tree mustering with all i have to act natural.
Ei’s whose face facing somewhere else, of course we were but strangely far, it was as if a flash of speed we parted without even her notice. I suppose lightning truly is a blessing.
I am not, gonna ignore the fact, how much beat my heart is having, i fear that the two of them could hear, otherwise. Y/n damn it you rascal what were you thinking—
“So as promised.” Miko, decided to break the awkward atmosphere, as if she had no clue of what was going on.
Miko whose elegance hand reached out the papers which i have been searching for, within a flash i snatched it.
“Fierce now, are we.” Said Miko with a coy.
“Very much well, this is where the conclusion meet. I suppose..”
“May, just like that? Leaving now, right after stepping upon this land. Why in such a hurry to leave.” Miko groaned a word. Does this little fox misses me, heh, thats far from possible.
“She do have a point. After what has happened within the realm, would it be the best to talk it out?” Ei conveyed.
. . . . .
. . . . .
And so after a few more minutes of debate it ended with me deciding to leave, since I, a person of duty very much prefer the latter of conveying my mission done. Though i never said anything of coming back, i did put a word of visiting if ever so.
. . .
….. I was just a minute far from reaching the Port of Rituo. And i had a hunch in an out of blue, am i perhaps forgetting something. Hm?
‘If i forgot, then it probably do not hold any importance.’ My thoughts stirred to debate.
‘Documents… Now Gnosis.’
A halt came to me in sudden of realization.
‘Doctor‘
Ah, how could i not forget, we both shared a word that i would atleast sought a piece of knowledge of his desire. Honestly, this event was as unfathomable that i had forgotten his existence, even for a moment. I began to walk through the port, in the hopes of expecting a ride, though of late.
Somehow in the corner of my eyes, a glimpse of a blonde haired accompanied by its rather looking tasty fairy, brushed by.
Since curiosity beat the best out of my pride, i turned with a glance. For that, there was no mistaking what i have seen for myself , those was no other than the famously renowned Traveler…. And her….. Portable Fairy…..? Perhaps. She was rather a strange object.
