Chapter 79: Return of certain someone

Chapter 79: Return of certain someone

[A/N Sorry for no chapter yesterday. Was too tired to write ): ]

(Ryoto's pov)

I slowly walked up to the big present box and saw a pink-haired girl who practically jumped out of the box as soon as it was opened.

The girl started looking around curiously.

Lala: "Where am I?"

It was Lala, and she looked younger than I last saw her, but it was undoubtedly her. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

I couldn't believe it. It was her, but I needed to be sure that I wasn't dreaming.

Ryoto: "Lala?"

My voice got her attention, and she focused on me for the first time.

Lala: "Ryoto?"

That confirms it, and the only thing in my mind was to hug her, which was what I did. Lala returned my surprise hug.

Ryoto: "I missed you."

My voice was soft. I don't think I used voice this soft before in my life, but it just showed how much she meant to me.

Lala seemed surprised by my words but didn't ask or say anything and just squeezed me a bit harder, showing me her affection.

We stayed one this for a while until I was comfortable separating. I missed her warmth.

Lala: "Ryoto, why are you looking younger?"

She asked after she took a closer look at me.

Sophia: "I'll be the one to explain that."

Sophia butted in.

I didn't sleep but felt better than ever. Lala wasn't tired enough to sleep just yet, but I needed to go to school, so I got up from bed, but Lala went into koala mode and stayed like that. She looked at me as if saying that she won't leave me today either.

It looks like I'll go to school like that, but before that, I needed to tell you something, Lala.

Ryoto: "Lala, can you get off for a moment? I need to tell you something."

Instead of letting me go, she squeezed me harder. I chuckled at her antics.

Ryoto: "Don't worry, I don't plan on running away without you."

She looked me straight in the eyes. I didn't even notice, but I had my eyes open the entire time. Before she arrived yesterday, I had my eyes closed most of the time, even at home, but maybe it's true that your home is where your heart is. She makes me comfortable just with her presence.

Lala reluctantly climbed down.

Ryoto: "I just wanted to warn you about something first.

#1

I probably should tell you that earlier, but I couldn't find a good time to do that, but somehow, my blood became really dangerous, so you need to be careful about it so no biting too hard during our sessions."

To prove to her that, I took a knife and sliced it as little as possible but as soon as the knife went below the skin, a part of it evaporated or melted. Hard to tell, but the thing is, the part of the knife that touched my blood disappeared.

The blood, however, didn't harm me in any way. My skin didn't burn or anything. It didn't even hurt. Good to know that I don't need to worry about harming myself, at least.

Lala looked the whole time curiously but flinched when I cut myself. However, she trusted me and waited for what I wanted to show her.

She was curious about my blood when she saw what happened to the knife, but she hadn't had her tools at the moment, and to be honest, I was a bit scared of letting her study my blood. I don't even think there is a container durable enough to hold my blood for an extended amount of time.

I tried to answer all of Lala's questions to the best of my abilities until she was satisfied.

After that, I was ready to go to school, and Lala seeing this remembered what she was doing and attached herself to me. Surprisingly she was easy to carry her around as she held into me. It could be thanks to my strength, but who cares.

I exited my apartment, knowing that today would be a chaotic and exciting day.
