38 Chapter 38: Samsara (1/2)

”NOOOOOOOO!!!”

Aura screamed dramatically as she fell to her knees, tears threatening to spill from her eyes while putting on a face as if she was a child being disowned. ”Master, please don't leave me”, she pitifully said.

Tosca who was standing behind Aura wore a confused expression not understanding how Alex leaving would bring out such a dramatic reaction from Aura. ”Aura, what's wrong?”

Aura turned to Tosca, ”You don't understand when Master sais he's leaving it could take anything from a year to a few decades for him to come back.”

Tosca's eyes went wide when she heard she might not see Alex in a few decades, She might not have known him for long and he might not give off the same healing vibe Aura does, but she found that she would miss him quite a bit if he were to leave. Her eyes became teary as she joined Aura and pitifully stared at Alex.

Being assaulted by these gazes Alex didn't know what to do, there was the usual Aura pity me gaze that he had grown immune to then there was the knew to pity me a gaze of Tosca which he hadn't adapted to and it 'shot him right in the feels.' Not being able to put up with it he could only relent, but whether by luck or something else he was planning on taking them with him but like usual Aura jumped to conclusions.

”Relax, this time I'm taking you with me. So make sure your ready we should be leaving around tomorrow”

'I still can't understand why she is so immature while she is only a few centuries younger than me', Alex sighed at his thoughts as he watched Aura's face as she processed what he just said. He found it quite amusing since her face was first filled with confusion then contemplation finally as if a light bull was lit she started shining as a goofy smile appeared on her face.

Tosca's pitiful face was also replaced with happiness as she thought about where they might be going, 'Master is so nice, I wonder where he's taking us', she thought while unconsciously copying Aura in calling Alex, Master.

”Master I knew you were the best”, Aura jumped up after she fully understood she was going with Alex, and with quick movements, she hugged him, her arms going around his neck while sitting on his lap and squeezing his head into her chest.

'Fluff' went through Alex's mind as he balanced out for a moment not expecting Aura to overreact so much but he composed himself in less than a nanosecond. His muffled voice sounded out from between Aura's twin peaks.

”I appreciate your... feelings Aura, but could you please let up just a bit so that I can talk to the two of you about our next actions”

Aura started giggling, ”Master that tickles”, as she eased up on her hold on him as not to have him 'tickle her' by speaking any longer, but she did not get off his lap and by the looks of it she had decided to stay there come hell or high water.

”Now then, I don't suppose you'll be getting off me will you?” Alex asked just to make sure and Aura cutely shook her face while leaning comfortably on Alex's chest.

Tosca watched as Aura laid blissfully on Alex and could help but think, 'That looks comfortable', but quickly shook her head as a blush appeared on her face.

”Ok, Tosca, you can come here too”, Alex called out to the little girl having read her like a book. She hesitated for a bit but after taking another look at Aura's blissful expression walked up to Alex.

Alex shifted the daydreaming Aura onto his right lap and made room for Tosca on his left, the girly climbed onto his lap and buried her blushing face on his chest. Alex gently rocked his left lap while caressing Tosca's beautiful white hair, causing the girl to get a warm feeling in her heart as she calmed down and slowly fell asleep on Alex.

”What am I going to do with you...”, Alex whispered under his breath as he stared at the smiling Aura that was lying don on his chest, his eyes flashed with deep love, then he turned towards Tosca who was sleeping in his left lap and it turned complicated, ”..and you”.

”Aura...”, Alex softly spoke, after a few minutes.

”Mhhhh”, Aura looked up at Alex, her beautiful face blushing in a deep crimson as she stared at Alex's face, Which ones again only done a light smile with clear eyes that held not a single ripple of emotion.

”It's time to discuss my plan”.

”Ok”, Aura said as she waited for him to continue, not planning on moving another inch.
