Day 0 After Metafalica
Can you believe this? Metafalica is finally here! Thanks to Lady Cloche and Luca, we finally create Metafalica! I can't help but be excited about it! Gilbert only smiles, probably doesn't know how important this to us. He wants to go back to his land after all. Me too, will follow him along with our child when the time comes... I should cherish this with the others when I still have some time.
In the evening Lady Cloche and Luca gives a speech again, saying their thanks to us for making Metafalica reality. We cheers for them in response, without the maidens we won't be able to create it in the first place. They don't give up on us even on dire situation, especially I heard from Gilbert's story that Infel, the previous maiden, is the culprit behind all the hacking.
On the night Aunt Misaki made Gilbert fill some forms for our supposed marriage before she left, even though Gilbert is unable to read or write my language, so I have to help him filling in the forms. What a drag, it's not even for someone that I cared of, since my parents are...
Whatever, I'll go to sleep earlier this night. I want to rest my head on Gilbert's chest~
Day 1
Grand Bell opens a registration for everyone who wants to move to the new land. Of course, when I said everyone, pretty much every human being signs the form, including Aunt Misaki and all her families. Ugh... Thankfully she doesn't bring the form to me... Yet. I haven't even finished filling Gilbert's one.
Early afternoon, a soldier comes to our house. We were given an opportunity to visit the land first, along with Lady Cloche, Luca, and the rest of Croix's group. It's really beautiful, just like a dream land... Lady Cloche also brought along a group of people to discuss matters about the land: Like which part of the land will be used for public use, which one for residential area , which one for business purpose, things like that. Everything needs preparations to make this land good for all of us.
Luca asks me and Gilbert's opinion where we want to settle in before we headed back. Gilbert said he doesn't want to settle in the Metafalica, since he'll go to his own land sometime later, and told her to give it to someone that needs it more, like Reine. She asked me to convince him otherwise, since no one knows how long he'll have to stay in this land, but I don't want to; Its his choice, and I'll follow it no matter what. He has a point anyway: a lot of people in the slum lives in poverty, compared to me who've enjoyed the better part of Metafalss, they deserves it more. Luca said to me not to worry about it, since the land is enough for everyone, but I insist; If Gilbert stay, I'll stay too.
After that Lady Cloche excuses herself from the group of people and joins Luca in our conversation, saying if there's something wrong to her sister. Luca sighed and told her the story, then Lady Cloche frowned to Gilbert, said that he should considerate to my feelings, how Metafalica important to everyone in Metafalss, how he should give me a chance to enjoy the land too even that I agree to left this world following him, and asked why he doesn't get it after traveling a long time around Metafalss with them.
I stopped her before there are more conflicts between them. Yes, I helped creating Metafalica with the others. Yes, it is beautiful and I want to be part of it. But I don't want to bother him with my selfish thinking. There was a moment of silence between us, then Gilbert decided to move to Metafalica, but with one condition: he wants a job, so he can feed us. Lady Cloche smiles and says that can be arranged: she'll fits him in Grand Bell auxiliary squad, and giving compensation for his effort in the party as long as he stays in Metafalica, so he can spend his weekly wage for our luxury and not worry about our primary needs. Lady Cloche also said that every single knights will be helping people moving to this land soon, and she expects his suit will be able to do jobs that normal people can't do, like lifting heavy stuff alone. He nods to the arrangement and we says thanks to Lady Cloche, and she shows us some good places for our potential new home. We picked one near the soon-to-be park area, the scenery looks good, and Gilbert doesn't mind it.
Before we leave Metafalica Luca gave me a bottle of bath oil, labeled 'Softly Sexy'. Lady Cloche calls out her sister, telling me it's a 'dangerous' bath oil, but Luca said it's okay since I'm already doing 'it'. She tells me to use it later when me and Gilbert take a bath... I smell the bath oil: it's... I don't know how to describe it. Gilbert asked what Luca talks about, but she pushes me and Gilbert, telling us to go home quick. Strange...
On our way back home I asked Gilbert why he changed his mind. He said he wants me to be happy too, just like how I want to make him happy by staying with him, then asks back why Lady Cloche has to told my feelings to him, and not telling to him directly. I answered that while Metafalica is important, he's more important to me, and like what I said before, he's right: many other people deserves Metafalica more than me. He sighed and looked to the ship's window, I think he wanted to said something, but he said nothing. I... didn't say anything wrong, did I?
I need to relax, nothing will go wrong... I should use the bath oil that Luca gifted to me later, maybe it could calm my mind.
A/N: I don't know how Metafalss calendar work, and I don't know how long the cycles between Viola and Cello, so I can't use Metafalss's date. Sorry.
