CHAPTER 3: LET'S STOP AND TALK AWHILE
It's been a week since they've arrived. Seven long days of unending trip from one spectacular sight to another. Keiko Yukimura groaned, slumping her aching body on a soft coach.
" I thought this is going to be a relaxing junket, why am I feeling so tired right now?" She heard Kazuma riposte.
"Lazy ningenkai" Keiko overheard Hiei's comment. She looked over to where the fire demons' place. The man was donned in white sleeved shirt, a denim pants and a piece of white cloth tied in his forehead.
"Well, I think I'm going to get my rest now..." Keiko declared. She was on her way out the den's door when Kurama halted her.
The red-haired man professed his and Botan's official engagement. The cavern started in cacophony state. She too was overwhelmed by the news; she forgot her weariness and made her way toward her best girl bud.
The room though in chaos, Keiko didn't miss the silhouette of figure that quietly slips out of the turmoil.
She made her way outside, trying to comfort the lonely man but she couldn't find him. She took her denim jacket and stropped the City to look for the lone blade.
Her denim capri pants and yellow cashmere sweater were a mere relief for the cold autumn weather. Strong wind blew her drawn out chocolate hair. She was glad she managed to tie it loosely before going out else she'll suffer a major bad hair.
It was over an hour of searching before she found him. The man was leaning on the rail, completely emaciated at the gliding of the water in the river underneath the London Bridge. Thick windbreaker drapes on his shoulder.
"Mind if I join you?" She politely asked. Hiei give her a boring looked then settling back his gaze to the tide. Keiko found her way beside him, emaciated at the barrier then moved her bore at the night sky.
She took a deep breath of esteem.
Hiei heard her, following her intent looked, the scowling demon rested his eye at the exquisite display of light in the night sky.
Keiko chirped in. "its called Aurora Borealis!"
HIEI POV
He glanced at the girl beside him. Her eyes beaming with excitement and wonder as though she's a seven years old child watching a clown performing a magic trick. Her cheeks where flashing like a rose giving an excellent addition to her shy pretty face.
He doesn't know how or why did the silly ningenkai girl found him, sometimes finding an answer would be futile for the likes of him. One thing he knows though, the girl followed him to bring him consolation, which at that moment is execution in degree.
"Aurora Borealis?"
The girl found his eyes lacking at his red ones.
"Yup it is in northern latitudes that is held to be of electrical origin. The celestial phenomenon of bands, curtains or streamers of coloured light that appear in the sky predominantly in the Arctic and Antarctic regions of the earth." She explained
The huge brown orb that's framed with long thick eyelashes penetrates at his perception. He broke the staring games, shifting hie eyes on the array of colours consists of red, green, blue and violet.
"Back in Makai, do you have the same display?" she asked innocently.
"No." He indignantly answered, 'but the celestial back there could alter in different hue in a second."
He heard a sweet giggle coming from her, he gives him a weird looked.
"Finally, a sentence coming from you.' The girl retorted in explanation.
A half smile breaks upon his mouth. That's the first non-monologue dialogue he ever exchanges with the human girl.
Another strong cold North winds blow around them.
"Care to have a cup of coffee with me?" She asked him sweetly though it seems she doesn't need an answer anymore. They were already down the avenue walking side by side.
Hiei listen to her quietly, both his hands on his pocket while the evanescent girl pleasantly talked as though he's one of her closest friend.
