"Pfft! Hahahaha, hahaha!!" Isha was laughing her a*s off.
"Hahaha. Very funny! Couldn't you help your date a bit?" Eshwar asked and walked in front of her and stared at her dead in the eye.
"Oh my, you shouldn't be like this...." She shook her head while holding back her laughter.
"Pfft, didn't you know, you're so sweet. Pfft! Hahahahaha." She laughed out until she was out of breath and until tears rolled out of her eyes.
"Oh my God, her face was hilarious!" Isha said and wiped the tear off of her cheek.
'Well, at least he hasn't changed much.' Isha thought while looking at Eshwar, who was furrowing his brows at her, but his emotion was green, indicating 'happy.'
'You can't fool me, you know.... I can tell what you are feeling in a single glance even without this cursed eyes.' She thought.
"Well? Why did you invite me?" Isha asked after she stopped laughing but kept smiling.
'My cheeks hurt from laughing so hard! If I try to keep my face normal, it feels like my cheeks are pulling my lips up into a smile....' she thought as she massaged her cheeks with both hands.
"First, I was bored out of my mind. Second, we are now dating, so I have another reason to invite you to join me. Third, I don't know how to ask someone if they're alright without making it awkward because I don't know how to continue the conversation, and finally, your date can flee under the guise of a 'date.' He replied.
"Wow, I can't believe I'm being used after only 6 dates!!" Isha snorted and pouted.
'Though, I think the reasons are pretty accurate.' She thought inwardly.
"Exactly like a cat." He said this while walking backwards and smiling at her.
"I'm getting the urge to buy cat ears and gift it to you, you know?" he asked while smiling mischievously.
"..... why a cat?" She furrowed her brows at him, pondering, and said after a while.
"You know, a cat doesn't give a sh*t about anyone else, except for the one it likes...." he said with a serious face.
"I know that, but why compare me to a cat?" she asked.
"You, too, don't give a sh*t about others, except for the ones you like." He said while hopping back and staring at her face.
"Hmm... That's true..." she nodded in understanding and found it pretty accurate.
'That is far too accurate for someone who has only known the other for a month..... Maybe he remembers his emotions between us but doesn't know how to name them without his memories of our past, which I should be thankful for because that pitch black killing intent that fuelled his divinity... I'm not sure, but if he regains his memories, he'll only be devoured by rage.' She shuddered at the thought but continued to smile.
'I certainly don't want another city to be destroyed! Not after three of them were razed to the ground in the past as a result of his rage!! Even though I was the reason for it, it doesn't make me feel any better; I hope he learns to control his anger before remembering anything from our past..... The city in my previous world was much larger, so... I believe two sectors will be easily razed to the ground if he gets really angry and doesn't hold back...' she remembered how cities were razed because they tried to frame and kill her.
"If you think about it that way, I think you are more likely to be a cat than I am." She pointed at him and said.
"How so?" he asked with a puzzled expression.
"First, it's lazy and only moves when it's bored out of its mind!" she said while counting her fingers.
"Ha, haha." He scratched the back of his head.
"Second, it pounces on anything that irritates it!" She said in firm tone.
"..... I mean, I –" he tried to say something but was cut short by Isha.
"And, finally, it has extreme mood swings!! It'll be playing joyfully one second and then turns into a killer the next." Isha stated, staring and pointing at Eshwar, that no arguments will be tolerated.
"Hey, that's pretty accurate!" he said while brightly smiling.
He turned around and knocked once on the door next to him.
KNOCK
'Huh? We're already here?' she thought while staring at chairman's office room door.
"Oi, old geezer I'm coming in!" he said and opened the door without waiting for an answer from the inside.
'Old geezer?'
CLUNK
"..... Shouldn't you wait for an answer? What's the point of knocking if you are just going to barge in?" Isha asked.
"That's exactly why, I knocked once. I'm letting him know that I'm barging in." He answered with a smile and opened the office door.
"Eshwar, what brings you here?" Quinn asked as soon as Eshwar entered the room.
"Sit down! And don't hug me! Ack, help! Help!" Eshwar screamed for help from the inside.
"Haaa..." Isha sighed, shook her head and walked in to the room.
'Let's just hope he doesn't talk anything unwanted.' She thought and stepped into the office.
Eshwar grumbled as he walked towards the couch, while Quinn walked back to his seat without looking back with a slight smile on his face.
"Hello, gra-" Isha tried to greet Quinn but was cut short by Quinn.
"So, when are you going to marry my granddaughter?" Quinn asked Eshwar without looking back.
"Huh?" Isha's mind went blank at those words.
"This damn old geezer!" Eshwar came to a halt, bit his lower lip in frustration, and stomped his feet as he approached Isha, who was still in a daze.
Quinn sat in his seat with a wide grin on his face while staring at Eshwar's back, before his eyes widened and he looked at the couple in disbelief. Eshwar grabbed Isha's right hand in his and pointed their hands towards Quinn, who was still trying to make sense of the situation.
"Look! I'm dating her now!" Eshwar said proudly, leaving Isha even more flummoxed than she had ever been before.
".... You have my blessings." Quinn snapped out of his trance and said with a warm smile.
"Right! Thank you old man! Now!" Eshwar thanked Quinn with a wide grin on his face.
"Keep your princess in your own house! Muhahahaha!" Eshwar said and laughed at Quinn, hysterically.
'What's going on?' Isha snapped out of her daze and looked at Eshwar, dumbfounded.
"So, when are you going to marry my granddaughter?" Quinn leaned forward and asked with a smile while resting his head on his clasped fists.
"Huh? What nonsense are you talking about? I said that I would marry her.... No, that I was dating her." Eshwar asked while pointing at Isha and staring at Quinn with perplexed look on his face.
"Have you gone senile old man?" Eshwar tilted his head to his right and stared at Quinn like he was stupid.
"My name is Quinn Walker...." Quinn introduced himself.
pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ "I know that! I only said that I would marry her, if I ever marry, not your granddaughter." Eshwar snarled at Quinn who simply pointed at Isha who was trying to make sense of her situation.
"She is Isha 'Walker'....." Quinn introduced Isha.
"I know th..... Huh?" Eshwar looked at them like it was his first time they met.
"Walker?" he asked with dumbfounded look on his face.
"Yea, she 'is' my granddaughter." Quinn said while smiling brightly at the couple.
