Chapter 56
[A/N: Happy Belated Mother's Day! I love the fact that this one includes a mother's arc. I am glad that you guys received the name so amazingly. Thanks a ton. And this one is dedicated to Raina. She was the first one to be correct! And sorry for the delay. I was celebrating yesterday with my mom as well as my BF's mom. J Now everyone got it correct, Kirara is a creature in InuYasha and I have been an extremely huge fanatic of Inuyasha all my life.]
To say that he was taken aback would be an understatement. No, it was much much bigger than that. He had never ever really imagined that he would have to stop giving her nicknames. It had become such a huge adoration of his, to call her whichever color he felt like, that it was almost disappointing to know her name.
But nevertheless, she told him. What had made her tell him, he thought. And that was when it struck him. She never lied to him. Nopes, she never did.
She had been difficult to decipher, and would refuse answering the wrong questions, but one thing she would never do, is give him false information.
His heart itched to know whether he was the exception or she was bound to truth like a rule.
"Kirara?" He asked her, breaking her out of some reverie.
"Yes, My Precious?" She asked, her eyes glowing.
"Can you lie?" He questioned, a bit hopeful.
She couldn't help but laugh, how naïve. It was in these situations that she found him the most adorable. Why did his eyes look this hopeful?
Was he expecting himself to be an exception for her? She almost felt sorry for him.
"No, My Precious, I cannot." She answered.
His heart seemed to plunge into an abyss, he wasn't special.
"Then, why are you here, Jade?"
