Aerith stands her ground and does not give in "I have the money now release him." The man is getting angry he yells at Aerith. Everyone has stopped to see the commotion. Cloud pulls his motorcycle in front of the crowd. He doesn't know what is going on. We all know his escape didn't go as planned. He walks through the crowd where he sees this big man yelling at this women.
Aerith still refuses to leave without her friend. The man has totally lost his nerve when he lifts his hand to smack Aerith. She closes her eyes ready for the blow that never came. She opens her eyes to see that the angry man's hand is stopped by another person. Cloud lets go of his hand and says, "What is going on here that makes you want to hurt this woman?" The angry man bows his head to Cloud "Sir this women will not move and insist that she buy back her servant whom are not for sale." Cloud turns to face Aerith "Let him go" Cloud says still looking at Aerith trying to remember where he has seen her before. "But sir the..." the angry man debates. Cloud turns to him again."I said release him at once." The man does as he was told. Aerith quickly followed the man hoping Cloud would forget about her. Tenchi released and they both start to walk off. Cloud calls out to Aerith, "Wait hold on." Cloud runs over to Aerith and begins to say, "Weren't you that servant girl that threw apples at me but you are here now dressed like a queen what were you doing in rags? " Aerith knew she couldn't tell him the truth because he would just shun her away as another and Tenchi might be sent back. She begins to say, "Well I really like my servants so sometimes I like to dress up and help them out is there a problem with that?" Cloud nods and smiles at her enthusiasm. "What is your name?" Cloud ask Aerith. Aerith once again cant tell him the truth, "My name is Inflana Gainsborogh." Cloud nods and smiles at her again until he heard the generals voice. Sephiroth walks up to him and talks about his trip today he tell him he wants to speak with Cloud
(Let me refresh your memories Cloud is like the Prince of Midgar because of his heroism. Sephiroth adopted him and made him like his son. Cloud's mother died when he was young and the strongest most intelligent man adopts him and Cloud grew up around the Soldier building so this is due to his success and people of Midgar consider Sephiroth to be like a king)
Cloud nods and turns back to Aerith when he realizes she is gone. He reaches the building still thinking about Aerith. Aerith reaches home to show Akko and Hina that she has brought Tenchi home. She tells Kadaj how Cloud think she's some noble women and that she gave him his real mother's name. And also explains to him how Tifa and Yuffie can find his so attractive. Later that evening Ami, Yuffie, and Tifa arrive home. Tifa notices Tenchi home and say in a disgusted tone, "Didn't we get ride of him a while ago? What is he doing back here?" Ami turns to Aerith who is back in her regular clothes. "Well you see they were no longer selling them so they dropped him off." Ami raised her eye and walked away Aerith tended to their every needs and put them to bed.
Tifa couldn't sleep she kept dreaming about Cloud. She dreamt about her and Cloud were getting married. "Aerith...Aerith what the hell is taking you so long AERITH" Tifa yells waking up Yuffie. "Can you shout any louder geez give her sometime she comes from the attic" Yuffie says placing herself next to Tifa. Tifa gives her an evil look, "Shut up and I don't care you can wait for her all you want but I wont and plus don't act all nice to her I mean do you want to be like her?" Tifa yells pushing Yuffie off her bed. Yuffie quickly answers "No but she is our stepsister and this used to be her house until we came. She is more the rightful owner then we are."
Tifa hissed at the sound of that, "Yes but she will never know that." Aerith rushed into the room. She picked out a dress for her sister and also for her mother. Her stepmother demanded that she come to the market with them and carry their groceries. Tifa and Yuffie were looking as some jewelery while mother was looking at fruit. Aerith was standing around holding the bad that her mother dropped fruit in. A women squealed yelling, "Oh my gosh it is Cloud ahhh." Cloud looks up to see Aerith he reaches out to wave to her but a swarm of girl surround him. Aerith realizes that she has been spotted and quickly ducks behind the stall and runs off home.
Cloud pushes through the girls and stands in front of the stall. He turns around to see Ami standing right in front of him. "Hello there Cloud I am Ami and these are my two daughter Tifa and Yuffie. Tifa is my oldest." Cloud looks at Tifa and smiles then looks around for Aerith "Uh oh hi Tifa did you happen to see that girl Inflana?" Tifa looks at confused, "No because I only saw you." Aerith quickly rushes home and tells her friends what had happened. She runs to her closest and puts on one of the lovely dresses. Cloud decides to stop by her house. Just when Cloud was about to leave Sephiroth showed up and apparently was fond of Tifa.
