Wish you were here
Here is the chapter 2. Hope you enjoy!
I introduced Sophia because she is a great character. I also made a kind of Samson x Sophia pairing (I don't know why, maybe because they are completely opposite and they were great together. ^^)
So…Hope you enjoy!
Shiori swatch on the laptop and Sophia's head appeared in the screen. Shiori sighed. The technology was become a lot simpler than before. Seeing Sophia's annoyed face, she understood that she bothered her.
"Who is here?"
"Hi, Sophia. It's Ursula."
Sophia's face changed instantaneity.
"Aww. Ursula. I'm happy to see you. How are you?"
"I'm fine. I like my life here. And you with Index?"
Sophia looked behind her, like if she wanted not being heard.
"Fine. My researches began to advance. But with our dear Pope…you know."
"Be careful. You know she can hear and see everything."
Sophia nodded.
"Crazy…And she is just a normal human."
"I doubt sometimes." Shiori said, unsure.
A silence passed. Then Shiori saw Sophia making a crooked smile on her face. Shiori sighed.
"Yes, Sophia?"
"Tell me dear. You don't contact me just for asking me if I'm right. And fortunately…If it wasn't the case, I would be easily bored with you. You have something in your mind. So…Tell me. What's wrong?"
Shiori blushed. She wondered if it was a good idea in the end. But Sophia waited, her smile on her face. She took a breath.
"Actually, Sophia…I've a problem."
"What is it? You know, if you need backup, you can call Chiara. She is the secretary so she can do it easily."
"No…not a problem like that."
Sophia shrugged impatiently.
"So what?"
Shiori sighed again.
"I've a problem…with someone."
"Go on."
"It's a problem…With a boy."
A silence passed again. Sophia smiled again, like she has already guessed.
"I see…I see. A boy…"
"Sophia, I…"
"It's Kakeru, isn't it? The Kakeru?"
Sophia nodded.
"Yes…That's him."
"And you are in love with him, aren't you?"
"Uh…Sophia. I don't really know. To be honest, I shouldn't have some human feelings. I'm a doll."
"The fact that you're a doll doesn't forbid you to not being in love. I even found it…A bit romantic."
Shiori rolled her eyes, tired of her childish nature. Sophia came closer to the screen.
"Tell me Ursula…I have an idea. Why don't you bring him back here ?"
Ursula jumped, surprised.
"What? Bring him…to Index?"
"Yes. Why not? It would be a good idea. I could see the boy who is in your eyes by this way. And then…Chiara and I begin to miss you so much."
Shiori shrugged.
"I don't know, Sophia. Furthermore, He is going out with a girl."
"Oh. Don't care about her. You're a magus, aren't you? I suppose it isn't her case. You're a lot more powerful than her."
"But…Johanna…"
Sophia rolled her eyes.
"Don't care about the Pope. If you're so worried, I will keep an eye on her. Trust me. You know how your creator is when she is angry…"
Shiori smiled, agreed with it.
"And like that…I could introduce my new companion to you. We could dinner four of us, couldn't you?"
"Sophia, I already know Samson. By the way, I wonder why you chose him. I mean…Samson is a strong believer and you're a Thule member. I wonder how…"
Shiori saw Sophia taking a pensive look.
"…I don't really know. I don't think I'm in love or something. That's just…I like him."
Shiori sighed but nodded.
"Good evening, Sophia. See you later."
"See you darling. Come back fast, okay?"
Shiori agreed then she closed her laptop.
