Chapter 294: Interlude 108/ Small Talk-1

Hana, 21 and Industria go through the mist gate and appear at their building.

-The mist bus has arrived at the station... (Industria)

Hana looks annoyed and interrupts Industria.

-You should stop your lame joke, Industria. (Hana)

-Tchhh, fine. (Industria)

The three walk out the mist gate and stand in front of the building.

-You should go back first, 21. I will go and get our master. (Hana)

-I will follow your order, head maid. (21)

21 nods and goes into the building.

-So, should I go back now? (Industria)

Industria turns back and heads toward the mist gate.

-Wait... (Hana)

-What? (Industria)

-Would you mind a walk? (Hana)

Industria looks troubled and answers her.

-It's so weird for someone like you to ask me for a walk. (Industria)

-Are you going or not? (Hana)

Industria sighs and says.

-Fine... (Industria)

Industria reluctantly follows right behind Hana.

-Hey... (Industria)

-Hmmm? (Hana)

-Why are you going at that speed? (Industria)

Industria scratches her head and asks.

-You normally would run as fast as possible to get your master. (Industria)

-I feel like walking for today. (Hana)

Hana laughs and asks Industria.

-Don't you mind walking with me, or perhaps you hate it? (Hana)

Industria takes a few steps back and stares at Hana.

-What the hell is wrong with you? Did you eat something funny today? (Industria)

Hana frowned at Industria's statement.

-I'm trying to be kind to you... (Hana)

-Stop that...please. (Industria)

-Hmmm... (Hana)

The two keep walking through the forest in silence.

-.... (Hana)

-Hah! (Industria)

-Humm? (Hana)

-What is your purpose, Hana? There is no way you ask me to go with you for no reason, right? (Industria)

Hana nods and answers.

-I just want to have a private with my master's future "lover". (Hana)

-Hmmm, it's not like you at all. And... (Industria)

Industria glances at Hana and asks her.

-You are so weird in many ways... (Industria)

-Why? (Hana)

-For example, in Farah's issue. How can you be so generous in sharing Farah with others? (Industria)

-... (Hana)

Hana stares at the sky in front of her with sadness.

-I just don't want to see her sad anymore... (Hana)

-Then you can provide Farah with a shelter and play with her all the time. I don't think Farah will be sad because of that.  (Industria)

Hana stops and gives Industria an awkward smile.

-I have thought of that before. (Hana)

-Why didn't you do that? (Industria)

-My cute master is a little shy... but she likes to explore new things. (Hana)

-... (Industria)

-If I stop Farah from going out, I will become a shackle stop my master from achieving happiness. (Hana)

-Still...That doesn't make sense for you to share her with others.(Industria)

-Hah...  (Hana)

Hana asks Industria softly.

-What do you think of me? (Hana)

-A pervert and obsessive maid? (Industria)

-You are right, except for the pervert part. (Hana)

-No, that part fits you most. (Industria)

Hana glares at Industria.

-Said the stalker. (Hana)

-Hey, don't claim me to be a stalker with no proof. (Industria)

-Do you think I don't have the proof? (Hana)

-...Tchhh. (Industria)

The two return to walking again.

-To tell you the truth... (Hana)

-Hmm? (Industria)

-I can't believe I can provide enough love for my master. (Hana)

Industria made a face look like she heard the most unbelievable things in the world.

-Hah? (Industria)

-I certainly feel attached to master Farah. I want to stay by her side and bully her all the time. (Hana)

-... (Industria)

-But I'm not 100% percentages sure that was love. Maybe it is just my ugly obsession with my master as a servant. (Hana)

-You... (Industria)

-I can't really understand the concept of love. Its description is too vague. (Hana)

Hana places her hand on her heart.

-Love...No, the emotion of humans is terribly complicated. (Hana)

Hana's face turns cold and makes Industria startle.

-Those fake emotions are the result of my learning about humans. I feel like everything I have done so far is mimicking a human. (Hana)

Hana looks down and claims.

-The love I gave my master may be fake...So, I think others can fulfil what I couldn't. (Hana)

Industria reaches out to Hana and pulls her.

-Youuu! (Industria)

Industria holds her fist and punches at Hana's face. Hana doesn't do anything and receive the punch.

-You must lose some screw in your head. (Industria)

Industria gives out a sigh and says.

-Listen, Idiot maid! (Industria)

-Huh? (Hana)

Hana stares at Industria cluelessly.

-You clearly love your master. That's an obvious fact! (Industria)

-But... (Hana)

-No, but here! (Industria)

Industria points at Hana and says.

-You want to stay by your master's side. (Industria)

-... (Hana)

-You are worried and care about your master. You feel irritated when your master stays with others. (Industria)

-Then? (Hana)

-All of those actions are your love. They are not the thing you can achieve but mimic other emotions. (Industria)

Industria shouts with all of her might.

-You love her, Hana! And don't you dare stop loving her! (Industria)

Hana looks down.

-To let you tell me that... (Hana)

Hana starts laughing and says.

-I will do it then... (Hana)

Hana has a refreshing look on her face after hearing Industria's advice.

-I have always been scared of that and never dared to cross the line with my master. (Hana)

-Huh? (Industria)

-If my love is real, then there is no problem for me to take my master's first time once we go back to the future. (Hana)

-Hey, it's two different things! (Industria)
