a/n: These entries about Mia and Golden Sun which belong to Nintendo and my OC's Kinsei and Kasei Akitaiyo are very, very short… o.O

Kinsei cried today. I went into town very early today so that I could see them before they left for Kalay.
"Thank you for healing me, Mia," she said, smiling. "Well, actually, I should thank Fizz," she giggled, reaching out to pat Fizz's head. From where the Djinni sat perched on my shoulder, it made a sound similar to a bird's happy chirp, or a child's happy giggle. I'm not sure which, but either way, it was a noise of pleasure, that was undeniable. "But more than that, I want to thank you for healing Kasei. You have no idea how close Kasei and I are…and you've saved him on two occasions…we both owe you."
"No, you don't," I protested. "You're my friend, Kinsei. So I healed you to make us even. Well, actually, Fizz healed you, so don't worry about it."
"Yes, but what you did for Kasei…how? How did you cast whatever that was with so much power?!"
"It was Ply…or some form of it, at least. Kasei came to get me to heal you early that morning, and on our way we encountered a monster. I summoned Mercury, which automatically put me more in tune with my water element. He was injured and I had to help him back…I guess I was kind of scared…and seeing him there, bleeding to death…I…I panicked," I admitted. "I concentrated so hard, tuned into the water element…I had complete concentration…I guess that helped."
Kinsei looked at me with a small smile on her face.
"Well, you're on my brother's good side. He already respected your personality, but now he thinks you're some kind of goddess or deity or something with that blue light you were glowing."
No. Not a goddess. An angel. An angel of life.
"I think he's taking a liking to you," Kinsei finally said, after a moment of silence.
I didn't reply, because deep down, during the month he's been here, I think I've taken a liking to him. I've spent a lot of time in town, so much that I've neglected to write in this journal every day. The time I've spent in town I've enjoyed, staying at the restaurant in the small inn drinking coffee and getting into long talks about our lives.
"Mia?" Kinsei asked. "Before I go…do you like him?"
"I think so," I said quietly.
I didn't just think so…I knew so.
"Okay, I have to leave," tears filled Kinsei's eyes as she hugged me goodbye. "You're my best friend ever, Mia. We'll be back in a month."
"I await your return, praying each day for your safety," I mumbled. Someone in the Mercury Clan taught me to say that…perhaps it was my mother, who taught me Mercury's healing arts as well before my entire family died.
Kinsei quickly ran to the entrance of Imil, looking around. I watched her from my distance back. I didn't see Kasei, and I assumed that's who she was looking for. Strong hands suddenly clamped onto my shoulders and spun me around, and I was looking into the dark blue eyes of Kasei Akitaiyo. I stared up at him, heart racing.
"Mia…"
I couldn't think of any words to say. The emotion was so clearly there…but the words weren't.
"I…I…" he trailed off, staring down at me. "Mia, I love you. Please be careful."
"E-every day I will pray for your safety, Kasei. May you s-safely return to Imil," I can hardly manage to get out.
"And I anxiously await my return to you. Will you wait on me?"
"No matter where I am at, Kasei…I-I'll always wait for you."
He nods and quickly kisses me, running off to catch up with Kinsei. My face is really warm despite the bitter cold, and I feel warm on the inside even though my body is numb with cold. I watch them until they leave.
I rush through my daily healing routine, ignoring the tears I can't stop from falling, and go back to the Lighthouse. With Kinsei, Alex, and Kasei gone, I feel incredibly…lonely…especially after recalling the death of my entire family.
"I love you, too," I finally say, even though I know Kasei can't hear me.
I can't think about it any more than I can write about it, so I sign my name in prayer for Kinsei and Kasei.
Mia
