It has been some time since he last spoken to her, wasn't it? However, this his own fear of her being busy and his constant quest to leave this place, there was little time in between to mingle.
She was worried about him? But at a time like this... she couldn't have messaged him at a worse time. ]
No, of course you're not disturbing me. I'm sorry we have no kept in touch until just now...
I am fine. How are you, Lady Morgiana?
[ Short and to the point. He's rather formal about his text messages, too. All to keep everything at a distance. ]
[Chewing on her lower lip, Morgiana re-read the text message, a sigh escaping her lips. She knew he was hiding something, but should she ask?]
Are you sure? Uhm..I'm okay. I've been busy with my work. We have been busy more lately. I'm sorry if this comes on a little strong but did anything happen before you arrived to holly heights? When we first bumped into each other in the streets you seemed...mad. its something I can't explain. I'm here if you want to talk. I care about you.
[ Goodness, she could really see through him, couldn't she? It's not like he could hide it from her forever, but knowing who was here in this place, he couldn't let her know... no, not right now. It was his duty to protect her, so he was going to do just that. For the woman he loved, he would get rid of the woman he hated. ]
... There is nothing to talk about. Maybe later, when I accomplish something, we can talk.
I'm sorry if it seems like I'm hiding something from you. I'm only doing this for you.
[As soon as she opened up the text to read it, Morgiana impassive face turned slightly alarmed. A part of her now was more worried than ever. What was Hakuryuu up too?] For me..?? I don't understand.
[She really didn't. If he was going out of his way to do something because of her, then she needed to know. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly in anger as she continued to write up her message.] Do you think of me as a fool? I don't like that you are lying to me. I wish you could tell me what you are going to do, but I know that it's none of my business. Just be safe.
[ He didn't like lying to her, nor did he want to cover it up. But now was not the time. There was still too much he had to do. And because she brought it up to him was only more of a reason to try to hide this away. No, she shouldn't be concerned with him... he didn't want her to worry. ]
No, I would never take you as a fool! You are the woman I love and because I love you, I want to be able to become the man you would want as a husband.
So please... just a little longer. I will prove to you the kind of man I can be.
[She was really glad he couldn't see her face because it was burning up right now. How could he say that so casually!? She knows he has feelings for her and it was still such a hard concept to grasp.] Please don't say that! You don't have to prove anything to me Hakuryuu. Aren't things fine the way they are? The fact that you are doing this for me will make me worried and guilty if it possibly might hurt you in the long run.
[ Hakuryuu, by this point, has no need of a filter when it comes to his love for Morgiana. He wants her to realize how true he was to his word in becoming his empress. There should no longer be any doubt in her mind. ] I wish I could say that things are fine the way they are, but there is still so much I intend to do. Once I finish, I would have created a world perfect for you to be in... a world where he can be at peace with each other forever.
You don't have to feel worried- everything will work out in the end. I promise you that.
[Morgiana is at a loss of what to say. HE IS MAKING THIS VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER.] Of course I trust you! I always have you know that. It's just.. [It's just hard to know that he might potentially be doing something risky while in holly heights and she wasn't there to stop it. She lets out a frustrated sigh, and then continues with her message.]
I trust you. And in that case, I want you to promise me you won't do anything reckless that will get you in trouble here, or hurt. Promise me that Hakuryuu.
[ The reply takes a moment to return, simply because Hakuryuu is have a moment as to what to send back.
Reckless and in trouble? No, he didn't think that was the case, but for others who would witness it... perhaps they would think otherwise. So instead of fully answering, the boy will merely jump around the subject. ]
Trusting me is all I can ever ask of you- thank you. I will do what I must to ensure that even if this world forces us to stay, that it will be an ideal one to live in.
[Did he seriously just avoid the question? Hakuryuu you little- She looked very stupefied and the expression quickly turns into annoyance, her cheek puffing up and red eyes narrowed as she stares down at her screen. She was hoping it would burst into fire, but sadly that wasn't happening.]
Alright then. I will trust in you. [Her words were fairly short and simple as she was seething at the moment. Way to go Hakuryuu.]
[ It isn't hard to tell the change of response he got upon sending his last text message. Though not face to face, the short answer quickly gives way to some of her emotions. At least she wasn't fighting back. He could live with this. ]
Thank you, Lady Morgiana.
[ To try and defuse the situation further, Hakuryuu again brings up another conversation to dismiss the small tension which just arrived. ]
Perhaps in the new future you would like to come over for a meal? It has been some time since I last cooked for you.
[She really wants to ignore the next text message she got from Hakuryuu to give him a piece of how she was feeling, but her anger is already subsiding just a little. Shes not that cruel anyways.]
Perhaps in the future yes. When I'm not busy with work. I work at a bakery you see, and it takes up most of my time. It can be difficult sometimes but it's fulfilling, especially with all the money I make. Your food is really good though, it fills me up.
Then would it be alright to visit you one evening at work? I know you are busy, but we have spent a lot of time away from each other. It... would be nice to see you soon.
I don't think my boss will mind it if you come to visit me at work. I can also give you a sample of some of the bread that I make. And yes it has been a while since we meet up, hasn't it? The days have been going by so fast. Have you adjusted to the technology or are you still having problems?
