So in Yuki's mind, there was no doubt that Yumie had the capabilities of really standing right beside her in terms of talents. And even if there was still room for developnt for Aika and Katsumi the sa thing could be said for Yumie since she could still grow more. But for now, she knew that out of the three, Yumie was the most gifted three, there was nothing changing that at least for now, but maybe in the future. If given the right ti, sothing could happen that changes the course of events and soday one of the two sisters would eventually surpass Yumie.
"Don't dwell on such things anymore. Just enjoy this mont since this is basically the last ti you are going to see ." Yuki said as she picked up a glass of wine from one of the servants' trays and raised it as a sign of toast to everyone. She then smiled before taking a sip of it and when she did, she almost cursed because the wine that she had just drank was one of her own that she had been saving up for. But because it was a special ti, she just let it pass, considering that her wine got out, there was only one person who knew of that, and that was Fumiko.
"Co on Yuki, why do you have to say that? You just brought down the lively atmosphere. It's better if you didn't remind them that you were going to leave." Aya sighed as she couldn't help but pinch Yuki's waist for doing sothing bad like that. Everyone already knew that she was going to leave and all of them were sad when the news got to them, and if they were given the choice, they wouldn't want Yuki to leave since she was such an important asset for the Beast Kingdom. But of course, it is not their call. So being reminded of Yuki leaving their Heaven makes them sad.
"Why are you pinching , Mom? I was just telling the truth…" Yuki retorted as she casually put away Aya's finger that was pinching her, though it didn't hurt. She didn't like it because she felt like she was being treated like a kid. She really thought that what she said wasn't bad since she was just really telling the truth and there was nothing bad in saying it and because of that, she couldn't understand why Aya would pinch her. But her thinking was just one aspect, she was only thinking rationally, and she didn't think of the emotions that would hinder her.
"Don't be like that… I know that you are blunt and are not afraid to tell what is in your mind. But please be mindful in the future because you might hurt soone without even knowing because of your bluntness." Aya just sighed as she carefully said to Yuki, she then took one final look at her before hugging her tightly and whispering sothing in her ear, they were the only ones who were able to hear what she said because of the special Magic that she used.
"I don't want you to stay like that, because you are becoming more of a robot. Please don't, I hate that thought. Please be more emotional, it's okay to be emotional sotis. Especially when you are in front of your family in the future." Aya said emotionally as she hid her face from everyone to see because she was already a little bit teary, she was just a little bit emotional after thinking that Yuki might beco soone who is completely cold other than to her Family, and she doesn't like that. She wants her to have friends like a normal person. Even if she has Family, having a friend is sothing different.
"Mother… This may be harsh, but I'll be honest once more. That is sothing I can't guarantee, but I will try. Try for your sake at least." Yuki replied as she lifted her arms and placed one behind Aya's and the other one on top of her head. She then slowly pats her head to calm her down because she knows that she is being emotional right now and what's worse is that she was already crying.
"I'm glad… those words are enough for to have hope that you are going to try your best. That is enough for … I hope you can be happier than you already are, my dear daughter." Aya was so happy to hear Yuki's words that she tightened her hug with her and just enjoyed the little mont. At this mont, she liked the feeling of getting a hug like this from her daughter.
"I love you, my daughter… till now and forever." When Yuki heard those words, her hand that was moving behind Aya suddenly stopped as she was not expecting her to say such things, and in her heart, she felt a very warm but pleasant feeling. She hasn't felt that feeling ever since the clone of Aya died back on Earth and feeling it again brought her back so many mories, and she involuntarily brought her head down back to her Mother's neck and rested on top of it.
"I love you too…"
After a few minutes of silence, the two finally separated and cald down. Their exchange wasn't heard by everyone and it seems from the eyes of everyone that they were just having so talk that they don't want anyone to hear because the two were whispering with each other. And just like that the party continued and everyone had fun as they began to drink, eat, and chat with everyone in the room. Most of their talks were about Yuki and so even were concerned about what is currently happening to the Human Kingdom.
Yuki also had her share of fun, probably the most fun she had had for years. Just chatting, drinking, and eating was enough to make her content with her life. If none of this happened, she would have probably thought that she was crazy for thinking that she would be happy by just chatting with her family, but now that she has experienced it herself. She has no more words.
3 hours had passed since then and it was already midnight everyone who joined the party slowly said goodbye and left with smiles on their faces as they were now content with everything that happened and could only say the best for Yuki in the future. They now don't have any regrets and are just happy for Yuki, they even leave so parting gifts for her.
"Aika… It seems that you are not sleepy yet, did you have fun at this party?" Yuki smiled and asked the little girl, she then looked at the other two and motioned for them to get closer. At last, it was finally ti to reveal the news and even if they were just joyous monts ago, all of it was now about to disappear because of what she was going to say.
"Yeah, it was a lot of fun! The party was so much more fun because everyone was here!" Aika said happily as she began to say the things that had happened. She was even happier because there were a lot of children there who were invited, so she made a lot more friends, though she was sad that she was going to be separated from her new friends. But that didn't stop her happiness from overflowing because she knew that she could just make so new friends while of course not forgetting the ones that were here.
"How about you two? Was it a great ti for you?" Yuki just smiled after hearing the stories of the two and she then asked the two older sisters about their experience, and it was just the sa with Aika. The two also made so friends of their own, even the introverted Yumie made so friends of her own, and Yuki could see that she was happier than before.
"Well… I'm glad to hear that all of you are having fun. But now… I will ask you sothing very important, okay? Try to calm down after hearing the question because of so reason." Yuki then took a deep breath before finally continuing without making it any harder by sugarcoating her words.
"Aika… you are not coming with us to Nightingale because you are now going to stay with Amane for a few years before we co to pick you up again."
