Chapter 18 - Sorry I changed my mind

The next morning when Yasaka woke up she felt that someone was clutching her hand tightly. She turned her head and saw the one who was clutching her was none other than her daughter Kunou. When she saw Kunou, everything that happened yesterday came back to her and she hugged Kunou tightly.

A few minutes later she thought that it wasn't her room and started looking around. She looked at her other side and saw Miyuki was sleeping beside her. Her gaze again shifted and landed on Tatsuya who was sleeping on a chair. She remembered how he protected her and Kunou and couldn't help but blush thinking about his fight. She looked at him affectionately but was brought out of her thoughts by a voice.

"So you fell for him as well huh." When Yasaka turned her head she saw Kurumi looking at her with a mischievous expression and a smug on her face. Yasaka's blush deepened but she didn't denied her statement.

Soon the others started waking up. When Tatsuya woke up he was immediately tackled by Kunou in a hug and she started crying again. Seeing her cry Tatsuya only consoled her and after a while she stopped crying but still didn't leave Tatsuya. Tatsuya didn't have any problems with that and looked towards Yasaka.

Yasaka who had calmed herself down looked at Tatsuya with seriousness and asked, "Who a re you, no what are you and what is your purpose of coming to Kyoto?" She looked at Tatsuya with a cold gaze so as to intimidate him but Tatsuya remained calm and said, "I am a human and we came here on a trip though I had a meeting on the first day."

Yasaka who didn't found any lie in his words, sighed and said, "I know this is late but thank you for saving me and my daughter yesterday, if you didn't come who knows what could have happened?" She said the last part with a bit of fear in her voice. Tatsuya who heard her shook his head and said, "ok I will go out you guys should change and we will go and have some breakfast after that."

Tatsuya stood up freed himself out of Kunou's grasp much to her dissapointment and left the room. Everyone looked at him go out and close the door. Once the door was closed Miyuki got up and took out some clothes from her ring and gave them to Yasaka and Kunou (Yasaka got Kurumi's clothes and Kunou got Miyuki's clothes though it were a bit big for her). Yasaka looked at the clothes which she and Kunou got and changed its size with her magic.

While they were changing Kunou suddenly said, "Mom when I will grow up I will marry Tatsuya-nii" and smiled. Listening to her Miyuki suddenly stopped changing and looked towards Kunou and said in a calm yet in an angry tone, "sorry Kunou you can't because I will be marrying onii-sama in future." When Kunou heard this she looked towards Miyuki fiercely and said, "No he will be my mate."

Soon they both started lashing out at each other. Kurumi looked at the scene with amus.e.m.e.nt but Yasaka was very troubled on seeing them. She too wanted to show her feelings but was feeling complicated as she was already married and was thinking whether Tatsuya would accept her or not.

Kurumi who felt the change in her emotions put her hand in Yasaka's shoulders and gave a reassuring smile and said, "don't worry just stay true to yourself, even I am his mistress." Hearing Kurumi reassuring her she felt a bit happy but was also annoyed as she too was in a relationship with Tatsuya. Yasaka sighed and left the room in which Kurumi has also started arguing with them as Kunou heard that Kurumi also wanted to be with Tatsuya.

Once she closed the door she found Tatsuya leaning against the wall. On noticing her Tatsuya stood straight and walked towards her. When he reached there she looked towards Yasaka and asked, "So where are the others?" Even though Tatsuya already knew what was happening inside with the help of his telepathy he still asked her. Yasaka looked at him and said, "They are inside the room fighting about who will be your wife in future, aren't you very popular with girls." Yasaka who was depressed thought of lightening her mood by teasing Tatsuya.

Tatsuya only sighed and said, "You don't need to hide you fear you know." Yasaka's who heard him frowned but regained he normal expression soon and asked, "what are you talking about?" Tatsuya still looked at her and said, "you can drop the act I know you are scared by yesterday's events, I won't blame you though that you want to show that you are strong in front of Kunou but remember you too have feelings so show them, even Kunou wouldn't want to see you sad." He moved closer to her, patted her head and gave her a gentle smile.

Yasaka who heard what Tatsuya said couldn't help and hugged him and started crying in his embrace. Tatsuya just sighed and continued to caress her head, he thought that Yasaka was very strong woman to keep all those feelings burried inside her and still act normal. Once Yasaka calmed down Tatsuya looked at her and tried very hard to hold his laughter. Yasaka's face was completely puffed and all the crying and snot made her look very funny.

Yasaka who saw Tatsuya trying to hold back his laugh after looking at her face got embarrassed and started hitting him lightly and burried her head in his chest. Tatsuya apologised and wiped her face with his handkerchief. Just as he was about to leave her embrace Yasaka hugged him tightly and said, "Can we stay like this for a bit?"

Tatsuya sighed and he nodded and patted her head. He knew that he would be scolded by Miyuki but still he didn't left Yasaka alone as he knew that she didn't have anyone to depend upon.

Yasaka had many responsibilities, to take care of her daughter and her faction alone without depending on anyone was a very difficult job but she still tried her very best to do all that, but even then everyone needs someone to rely upon and Yasaka felt that she could rely on him.

Yasaka had now completely calmed down and was now back to her cheerful and playful self. She looked at him and said, "You know while they are arguing amongst themselves why not I take you for myself?"

Just as she said that the door burst open and a unified, "NO!!!" was heard. Miyuki and Kunou started to argue with Yasaka but she was very calm. Kurumi stepped closer to Tatsuya and said, "So you noticed it too huh." Tatsuya turned towards her and said, "yeah yesterday when I reached their I saw her face full of fear and I know that she could not overcome her fear, it would have consumed her if she hadn't released all that of her chest."

Kurumi who heard him only smiled and thought that she was correct on choosing him as her partner. She walked closer to him grabbed his face and gave him a deep kiss.

The others stopped arguing and looked towards the both of them with widened eyes. Kurumi released him from the kiss and said, "Miyuki sorry I have changed my mind now I too will now aim to be his wife." She said that with smug on her face and enclosed Tatsuya in a hug. The others who came out of the shock jumped on them while saying things like they would not let it happen and all that.

Meanwhile Tatsuya about whom all this was going on about is choked by four girls and was trying very hard to hold onto his dear life.
