Chapter 396: First Love (2/2)
Kohaku furrowed her eyebrows.
“I be Husband’s now. Remembering any other man will be a betrayal.”
“Is it, now?”
Hera was astonished. She just couldn’t comprehend the logic.
“Aye, betrayal, betrayal, it may as well be adultery, ja.”
“Is that how it is…”
Hera felt despondent.
“I am indeed sorry. I should have never asked.”
“It’s fine, lass, I trust ye so I’m talkin’.”
“I’ll do whatever it takes to make amends.”
“Then might I have a refill on the booze?”
“Yes indeed! Coming right up!”
Hera answered energetically, moving to the glass on the table. She then outstretched her hands to take hold of it, but…
Swoosh! Her hands went right through the glass.
“Oh, I can’t actually hold it…”
Hera couldn’t touch anything physical, so of course she could not hold the glass, let alone pour liquor.
Hera looked at Kohaku with a sad face.
“I am indeed sorry.”
“Kukuku.”
“I really am, indeed, is there anything else I can do?”
“Mm?”
Klink, klink. Kohaku took the glass in her hands, swirling around the ice cubes in the cup.
After she thought for a bit, Kohaku spoke again.
“Then you can tell me something.”
“What is it? Please ask anything. Three sizes, the shape of my underwear, the color of my nipples, I’ll tell you anything.”
“No, ye can tell Danna-sama that—-Now then, who was yer first love?”
“Eh—-”
Hera stiffened up.
She hadn’t thought she’d hear that.
But it was only for a moment.
At least for her, there was no reason to be faltering.
Hera answered plainly.
“I haven’t had one.”
“Really?”
“Indeed I have not. I have never loved in the first place. I met Taiyou-chan soon after I was born, so it’s not like there was time for that anyway.”
“I see, then Danna-sama would be yer first in this case.”
“Mmm, no, I don’t think that’s the case either.”
“Ye have no feelings? But ye talked so much of him being “My Taiyou-chan” or “I’m here for Taiyou-chan”. Is that not the case?”
“Yes indeed, because Taiyou-chan is Taiyou-chan. There isn’t love in a romantic sense.”
“Hmm…”
Kohaku tilted her glass. After putting it to her mouth, she remembered that there was in fact nothing left in there.
As she looked at Kohaku, Hera questioned herself.
She wasn’t sure what the answer was.
“Mhm, Taiyou-chan is definitely Taiyou-chan, indeed.”
