Shameful?
"Shiroe, from the very start we started to talk. We've always focus on Kuroe, I know you cared for her but, right now I also want to know about you. I get the feeling that you are hiding something from me. I don't want pry about it but, it seems you don't want me to know. It spark my curiosity, I want to know what you are hiding from me."I said.
Shiroe didn't answer, She stared at my eyes and was silent.
"I promised, when I learn Kuroe's secret I won't harm her. I promise to become her friend and I promise I will make her smile....You know what Shiroe, Honestly, the moment the first time I set my eyes on you, I felt you are an untouchable maiden. I'm afraid of staining the purity of your image, you we're like a goddess. I was so astonished that a beauty like you existed."I softly said.
Shiroe listened. But I could slightly see she wavered hearing the latter part. But she stayed silent.
"The more we talk, I couldn't help but notice something strange. You knew me but I don't know you, maybe I knew you from the past but right now I don't have memories about you yet.... As the saying 'A heart can't lie' I believe on that. My heart cannot lie, Your heart cannot lie also. My heart tells me that you are special to me I know it sounds cheesy but I can't help it, My heart beat faster when I'm with you. I feel so nervous when I'm with you. This is the first time I'm feeling helpless before a girl. That's also a part of my curiosity of knowing more about you."I talk nonstop.
Shiroe kept listening to me, She stayed silent yet I could see her waver when hearing intimate words from time to time.
"That is why Shiroe, please tell me what are you feeling. What do you want. We can talk about Kuroe later...Being alone for many years is a torture, I know that because I just experienced it earlier. Now that you told me you are also experience the same thing, I could feel my heart being clenched."I said.
Holding her hand while I caressed it with my thumb. I asked her as I stared deeply into her eyes. As if I want pry deeper.
Shiroe only look at me with variety of emotions inside her heart. She was happy that I cared for her. Shiroe feel conflicted, She doesn't know how to answer my questions. She felt very embarassed saying the things she wanted. That is why she pushed me to Kuroe, because she didn't want me know about it.
But, Shiroe was shock hearing my latter words. She just remembered that Shido got trapped from Eternity. She felt so stupid ignoring the fact. Shiroe thought it was normal becuase she existed for millenium but for a human being it was a torture for them.
Shiroe grip my hand. She close her eyes for a second, She took a deep breathe. She then opened her beautiful eyes, staring at me.
"Shido, Don't worry about us. We grimoire existed for many years, We spend the rest of our time inside the space for many years. So it's normal for us to be alone for many years....It's sad to be alone but I don't want to break myself because I'm alone. We can only get out in here if we picked a master from the real world, we don't when but the only thing we grimoire could do is to wait."She said.
"So you are saying you could get out here if you have a master. Correct?"I asked.
She nodded.
"There many people that tried to get me but I did not choose them to be my master because I could feel something anomally towards them. I saw a malicious aura from them....We grimoire will choose who we wanted to be our master, There are also times when a person is too strong they can force us to obey."She sighed.
"Eh, did someone tried to force you to submit?"I said.
"Yes, many times."She smiled mysteriously.
"But, don't worry they couldn't do anything to me. I don't like to brag but, I could tell you Shido that I'm very strong."
Yeah, I can feel it. Your aura is powerful yet full of grace. It's a very bright light I might become slave to you if I stare at you aura longer. I thought.
"Shiroe can you tell me what you we're hiding from me?"I suddenly asked. stunning her a little bit.
She averted her eyes and became fidgety. "W-Well, well don't worry about that it's something not really worth hearing."
She definitely hiding something from me. My curiousity will really kill me if I tried to pry deeper but I really wanted to know. I sighed.
"Please Shiroe tell me. I don't care if it's not worth hearing I wanted to know...please."I use my puppy eyes.
Shiroe is hit by mental attack, she recieve a critical damage. Shiroe is stunned and cannot move.
"S-Shido,"She mumbled.
"What is it, Shiroe-nee."Just like a child.
I forgot to mention this but as you know I look like a highschooler. As for Shiroe she look's like a older sister from next door.
"Ne-nee? M-Me?"I could hear her mutter softly. I seem to hit the jackpot.
As expected, Well how did I know? Easy, She just told me about it. She said she always clean our mischievous work from the past, isn't that a sign of an older sister taking care of her siblings. So I thought, She likes to become an elder sister.
Shiroe blushed when she heard me. I giggle, I can't believe that the girl I treated as a maiden could have a little secret. But an older sister huh? Speaking of it, I miss Sis Sona very much.
"Shiroe-nee please tell me"I said with an innocent smile.
"Eh. B-But I don't want to....it's embarrassing."Good she started to waver.
"I want to know."I said just like a highschooler that was desperate of wanting to know new things.
"Shido...."She said my name, I could see she was slightly troubled.
Ugh, I think I should stop it now. It seems she wanted to hide it. I reluctantly sighed.
"Ummm, It's okay Shiroe-nee....If you don't want to tell me it's okay."I said with a bit reluctant in my voice.
"No, It's not that I don't want to tell you. It's just embarassing, I'm ashamed of telling about it. I hesitated because I'm hiding something shameful."She said.
