[ Why did Ren have to say something stupid like that? ]

I sat up on my bed as Kibbles wiped the water flowing down my cheeks with his tail.

" You still think they don't care? " Kibbles said softly as he sat up on my lap and looked at me. His slitted eyes seemed to see straight through me at that moment. Kibbles had always been someone I could trust without question.

I felt safe with him.

" Yuki, you think maybe Ren and Ki are you know... Together?" Kibbles said out of the blue*.

[ Huh? Together? ]

" Well yeah, they seem pretty close nowadays," Kibbles replied cheekily.

I used both my hands to wipe the rest of the salty tears off my face. I imagined what it would be like to see little Ren's and Ki's running around. My heart was very full, Ren would always be going off to the front line and because he was my guard... I could never imagine being more than just friends with him. It would be unfair to treat him like a servant and a lover.

Just being friends with him has been hard.

I continued to think about what Kibbles had said before I smiled.

" I guess it wouldn't be so bad if they were. They suit one another" I said thinking out loud.

" You wouldn't mind? " Kibbles replied.

" Ki and Ren have been by my side for a long time now. I don't think I could be upset at their happiness. I mean.. Who cares!" I replied flustered.

I shook my head so fast I thought my brain was going to scramble.

" Hehe, see you don't hate them!" Kibbles replied.

" Don't you think you should make up with them both.. Before we leave? It's not like you will ever see them again afterwards... Probably." Kibbles said softly.

There was a knock on the door.

" Young Master, Your grandfather is calling for you" Bulter Yoon had said.

I checked my face in the polished bronze mirror to make sure that my eyes were not puffy before I straightened my clothes and asked Yoon to walk in.

" Please follow me to the library," Yoon said quickly.

" Lead the way," I said in the best young master tone I could muster as I stood up.

We had walked for a little while before Yoon with an open palm pointed** me to a big set of rosewood doors.

I knocked once.

" Grandfather, Your grandson is here," I said with a flat voice.

" Come in" I heard grandfather Reo reply. His voice sounded a little older and less cheery then when I had first met him.

Yoon opened the door for me before bowing and leaving.

Reo was sitting down in an ornate seat surrounded by books. I closed my eyes for a moment and could tell what trees and plants each of the books were made from. I could even tell what materials the furniture was built from.

This exercise calmed my heart as I took a step forward.

[ My powers really have improved ]

" Take a seat Yuki " Reo said as he pointed to a chair across from him.

The seat was smaller, obviously to make anyone who sat across from him feel powerless. My grandfather was smarter then he looked. Especially since his hair was wilder than usual and his face was pale.
