At Parents cafe.
Evening
.
The cafe was close today and the owner of the cafe was experimenting in the kitchen trying to make sweets through honey,sugar or anything she could find which had a sweet taste to it.
She's been on this since morning and was whole heartedly concentrating and she had a result which she found satisfactory. She thought maybe she should let someone try .
Her little sister may want to have a try but she has not yet woken up.
' I feel like I'm forgetting something. It's been nagging me the whole time but I don't seem to remember it. oh well I should leave it be.'
Aer just dump it in her mind to leave it as it is.
She was thinking about something
'I wish I could talk to some travellers who have tasted exotic things or would like to share some recipe. Micah Inn did have a guest by the name Touya he gave a very nice recipe for the ice cream which was a hit menu. But I need to seek other travellers help too. There was a traveller too who was with Touya group his name was... Akio ... ahh I remember he was quite an enigmatic character , he did help in my shop and then he .... ehhh... asked me out....! Wasn't it today morning how can I forget .. Oh well I also needed to say this to him that he should take things seriously in matters of relationship and also because It's true that I am single but I don't want to be in a relationship with him just want to clarify things with him so that he would not have any thoughts about me. yes that's right, Aer you can't be in a relationship just because someone proposed you for the first time . Be strong.'
Aer was narrating things in her mind self indulging in her thoughts.
'Will he still be there.! I doubt he will be there still waiting . One will have always given up already if he was made to wait this long.'
Aer did not change her clothes but just took off her apron and went out of the cafe.
' I'll just go on and get some goods as well as see if he is still there which will be an extra.'
******************************************
Aer was walking past the town greeting people who she knew here and there.
Aer walked in front of the city centre and went toward the spot and did not find Akio which made her feel a bit disappointed so she turned to go to the guild to post a request for goods to be exported from the other towns.
Aer walked forward thinking in her mind and feeling a bit disappointed.
' Didn't you say that you fell in love at first sight then how come you don't have the determination to even wait.
Well, you can't even be blamed it's half of my fault for not remembering it even if you just tried you couldn't take much of the thing called waiting which did leave me in disappointment.!'
Aer shakes her head while walking toward the guild but when she reached the guild she was surprised to see a person.
" Aer, you're finally here. It took you a long time but it's nice that you're here now."
Akio saw Aer , he was a bit annoyed inside but when he saw her shocked expression it washed away all the tiredness and mental fatigue.
Aer saw this and couldn't reply for a long time.
Then she walked forward to him but before she could go.
A shopkeeper nearby said
" Kid, you've been keeping still since morning and now that your girl is here. Why don't you get angry at her for being late!?"
Akio listened but only replied 4 words and ignored the rest.
"because I love her."
The shopkeeper went silent and muttered something to himself before turning away.
Aer heard this and was more surprised as he did not even move more so from this place.
Aer heard Akio statement and blushed.
" For you to wait so long here for me, I am very sorry I forgot about today.."
Aer was thinking if she should give him a chance or not. She does not detest Akio but was a lot impressed by his determination.
He did exceed her expectations.
Akio grabbed her hand used gate and took her straight to Eashen.
Aer could not say a thing before she was taken back to Eashen.
*******************************
Aer was a girl whose age was around 18 quite older than Akio and still not married.
The reason for why she was not married was because she had to take care of her small sister which never gave her time for her to have any romantic relationship and also because she had to kept a watch at the cafe.
Aer was surprised now when she realized the change in the environment
' where am I at.?"
As if Akio could hear her thoughts
" We are in Eashen, My home country."
Aer was shocked when she learned she was in Eashen.
It is not that she didn't travel or so but this travelling was a very long distance which did not seem long at all.
" Aer , follow me to go eat, I am already hungry."
Aer was feeling guilty inside for making him wait so long so she thought maybe she should just accompany him today as his compensation.
*****************************
Akio reached his own home door and went inside .
The guards have gone to report to his mom.
Akio and Aer was being led by the house maid to the Audience room.
Aer was watching around the house and it was quite big and well furnished.
She then realised that the people here were not any normal people.
Aer was led to a room with Akio. When she entered she saw a lady who was beautiful . Aer was puzzled as to why Akio had brought her inside this place.
" Mom, Your son is hungry and came to eat home made food.!"
Ai was looking at the Akio with his weird behaviour and could not help but chuckle a bit and pulled Akio to here side whispered and asked
" Akio, who is the girl behind you.? Does Yae know about it!? Are you cheating on Yae.!?"
Ai continued on but was interrupted by her son.
" Mom you know, I can't be cheating on my wives now. can I!?. I need to make them happy and always be there for them and If I find that I have feelings for them I would straight away go to get them and make them mine."
Akio did not mind the suspense and told out aloud.
" Wives!!." Ai and Aer was curious as to why he said Wives instead of wife.
" Didn't you only have Yae as your first wife so is there a new one.?"
Ai asked as she started to get curious.
"Yes Mom, Yae is my first wife and I have also gotten a second wife ."
Akio said calmly stating as if nothing is wrong.
" So this girl is your second wife.!?" Ai asked with glitters shimmering in her eyes.
" No Mom, She is not yet in the group but I want her too."
Akio stated boldly
Aer and Ai were flabbergasted when he announced it so boldly.
