-Chapter 175: Love Really Really Makes Me Silly Silly 

"So, what do you intend to do about Horobi and the others? With whatever is going on, we need to come up with a solution."

I look up from the papers in front of me, my eyes going straight to Nina's pretty face. "You don't think I know that we need to come up with a solution immediately? Nina, I'm trying to come up with something to solve the problem without killing anyone."

"I didn't say that you had to kill them. I'm just wondering and it seems like you won't hurt any Humagears unless you have to. You're really dedicated to them."

"I am." I nod, agreeing with her words. "Don't ask me about that again. I will not be doing anything to hurt them unless I need to." I will only aim to put Horobi down if I have to put him down.

"What did I think of Horobi when I first laid eyes on him?" That is a complicated thing to give an answer to when she doesn't really know him. "Why do you want to know about that? Is it important to know how I felt towards him?"

"I am curious about him a bit since you're interested in him. It is amazing how that he came back from dying. He isn't human, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be amazed by it. He could have came back wrong if something got ruined internally." Nina is right on that. However, nothing happened internally really to him and he's the same person he was before basically.

"I see." I look away from her and nod. "I thought he was mysterious and very cold when I met him. He wouldn't let me know if he was a human or not for some reason. I think he did it so he could keep me following his orders without getting too close to each other. It didn't matter if he wanted me in or not." I fell for him anyways.

"Cool and mysterious?"

I look back at her and nod. "Yes, Horobi used to be very mysterious then. Now that I know about him a bit more, he's not as mysterious to me. I know where he came from and what he was designed for." He would have been an amazing father to many kids if he would have gotten the chance to do so, but he ended up with Jin for a reason.

"He created his own son didn't he? I heard that he is the one who made Jin and that is because he wanted a son."

"Horobi never got over his original programming despite the Ark's wiping out his original programming. I don't think the Ark totally wiped it out due to the fact Horobi still wanted a child. Jin was created by him in order to have his own son." I think it is cute that he did that.

Nina nods her head and smiles. "I guess Jin made you two closer."

"Yeah, Jin brought us together as well. If I didn't bump into Jin, I am sure that I wouldn't have met Horobi. I am thankful for the Ark in that sense. It made me get closer to Horobi without really trying to get us closer." Horobi and Jin...they're the best thing to have came from the Ark in my life.

"I think it is neat that you love a Humagear," Nina comments, smiling softly at me. "I think that is a beautiful thing. I figured society would head this way and I wish I could find me a nice Humagear sometimes."

"You already have enough people to love in the world." She doesn't need anymore of them. "I fell for Horobi because of who he is. It isn't because he's a terrorist, but because there is more to them than that. That part of him isn't the real part of him." That is what he thought he was.

"Sometimes you need to have more than one love in your life," Nina tells me, grinning. "Seriously, you do. You love Aruto don't you? You also love Horobi, right? So, you have two men you love."

"It is a complicated situation." I didn't mean to end up loving two wonderful beings. "I thought Horobi had died and Aruto was a nice comfort to me. I'm not trying to say that Aruto is just someone I love because I thought Horobi died, alright? I cared about him before that and I'm sure if Horobi wasn't there, we would have gotten together naturally at some point."
