"Lady Sanada! Yukimura sama is back!" a maid announced from outside her chamber and Lina's eyes shot open...
It's been five days since her husband was gone for his mission and she missed him terribly...
Lina ran out from her chamber and dashed out into the courtyard...
There, all the soldiers were assembled and she saw her husband chatting with the Kirigakure siblings as well as with Nobuyuki...
"Yukimura kun!" Lina called out and Yukimura's head whipped to his wife's angelic voice.
Yukimura didn't say anything but smiled and held out his arm.. Lina laughed as she ran and threw herself into him...
"I miss you..." Lina whispered as she breathed in his scent... Though sweaty, she didn't mind one bit... "You don't know how much I wish you were beside me every night..."
Yukimura kissed the top of her hair as he rested his chin on her head.
"I miss you too... Lina chan..."
Lina smiled to herself but their moment was interrupted when a cough sounded.
"Jeez, get a room..." Saizo rolled his eyes as Yuki chuckled.
"Jealous aren't we little brother?"
"..."
"If I didn't know any better I agree with nee chan..." Hotaru chuckled.
"Whatever." Saizo sighed as he met Yukimura's eyes. "Don't wait too long..."
Saizo walked away as Lina and the others frowned at him before turning to Yukimura.
"What does he mean?" Nobuyuki asked first.
Yukimura looked flustered but he then shook his head as he tightened his grip around Lina.
"It's nothing."
Lina was about to ask another question when Lord Masayuki approached them.
"Yukimura. Clean up and have dinner to celebrate the completion of our mission. Then meet me in my chamber with Saizo."
Yukimura nodded and Lina decided to drop the matter.
She should let her husband rest up...
*~*
Yukimura and Saizo were walking to Lord Masayuki's chamber together in silence until Saizo spoke first.
"Little lord... You haven't told her have you..."
"I told you I hate being called that..."
"And you know she will hate you if she finds out..."
Yukimura bit his tongue as he just stared at the wooden floor, each step he took was heavy and filled with guilt...
"I don't know how to break it to her..."
"Just say it..."
"How?"
"Open your mouth and say it."
Yukimura clenched his fist and stopped, turning to Saizo...
"How the hell am I supposed to tell her huh?!? Tell her "Hey Lina chan listen I'm going to marry Akihime as arranged by my father. Will you please accept this decision and give me your blessings for my second marriage?"" Yukimura then changed his voice to be high pitch as he pretended to be his wife. "Then if she goes "Oh why Yukimura kun?! Why are you taking a second wife?! Am I not good enough for you?!"" Yukimura changed back to his own voice. "Then should I answer "Lina, you are good enough for me but my father wants a Sanada heir and I never told you this but it bothers me that we don't have a child!""
Saizo crossed his arms and tilted his head sideways...
Yukimura changed his voice to be of Lina's...
"Then she'll go "Are you trying to say I'm infertile?!""
"Little lord..."
"No stop! I'm not done yet! And stop calling me that! Anyway...!" Yukimura was using his original voice. "If she asks me that how do you expect me to answer her huh? Tell her "Oh I don't know Lina chan but my father has a point since all of the Sanada generation have always managed to produce children!""
Yukimura ended his rant as he panted angrily, waiting for Saizo to say something...
"Done?"
Yukimura clenched his jaw and turned to face the front...
