Chapter 20

#

It would be two weeks later.

The time for their honeymoon was about to end, and yet, in those two weeks.

"You're annoying as ever Six Eyes"

"Back at you cranky pants!"

It appears their husbands are back in their right mindsets, and yet, they are butting heads more so than before. Gojo has been pulling pranks on Sukuna, at the same time, Sukuna retaliates in various and annoying ways to Gojo.

But it was getting out of hand.

Even their rooms were getting rigged with various devices to either scare or prank the other.

Unfortunately for them, Yua and Chusi have been on the receiving end of some of these pranks.

"Enough is enough!" Chusi decreed one morning during breakfast. "I will not and cannot go on with the two of you doing this. If you are going to continue when we get home, consider yourselves grounded!"

"Grounded?" Satoru asked with a smirk.

"Seriously?" Sukuna asked and chuckled at the threat. "Normally you would do a lot worst than that."

"No, Yua beat me to that." she replied with a grin of her own.

The two men froze and stared at her as she placed a scroll on the table. "Our second last day here, and you two are going to couples therapy!" she decreed.

"WHAT!" they demanded. "COUPLES THERAPY?!"

"You two are going to find common ground and stay on said common ground so Chusi and I are not caught up in your petty feud!" she stated. "Now, finish your breakfast, you start your session in one hour."

Sukuna was staring daggers at Gojo. Satoru glared back at him with a sneer. "If it's couples therapy, then why are we going?" Gojo demanded.

"They have more than one kind, couple to them means two people getting the same session at once. And since you two are technically in laws… as messed up as that is. You qualify!" Yua explained. "This is merely a sibling rivalry spiraling out of control…"

"Sibling…" muttered Sukuna.

"Rivalry?" uttered Gojo.

"WE'RE NOT RELATED!" they shouted.

"No, but you are brothers in law." Chusi said as she went back to her breakfast. "So eat up and get to your session, and we signed you up for this, if you don't go, they find you." She warned.

"Tsk…" growled Sukuna.

"But, I still got stuff I want to see in that freaky room!" Gojo protested.

"After your session" Yua decreed.

They pouted like little boys. Yua snickered to it as did Chusi, but they grumbled throughout breakfast about it.

The boys left after their meal, Yua decided she would wonder about. There was a room here that had a lovely natural garden, perhaps a stroll would be nice and relaxing before heading back home.

"I think I am going to check out that room with alternative time lines again… but what do I want to see? I got two left…" she muttered and went on her way.

Yua snickered as she went to the garden of the hotel.

Within were plants she has never seen before, but everything here was crisp, clean and… perfect. "This must be what peace looks and feels like…" she said to herself.

She didn't know how long she had wondered about, there were things to eat within, and the signs apparently dictated one can help themselves to the bounty. She snacked on various berries she never had before, fruits and even some herbs to settle her stomach that became upset after eating too many berries! When she walked out, she felt refreshed and clear minded.

Yet, waiting for her outside was Celine, the fae with deer horns. "Is something wrong?" she asked.

Celine sighed. "We need to extend your stay," she said gently. "There is no charge or anything, but, a situation came about."

"Before we continue… how long was I in that garden for?" she asked.

"Nearly two hours." Celine explained. "We kept an eye on you, you have eaten well and rested so we didn't mind you staying for so long. Yet in that time we had an… incident. Your husband was in a therapy session with Ryomen Sukuna, correct?"

Yua… nodded nervously.

"They didn't kill each other, did they?"

Celine but her lip a little. "No… but… they became more agitated after the session than they did going in. Normally we let our guest bathe to forget about this place before leaving and so our location isn't leaked out into the world, but we made an exception to that rule and let them bath to forget about what they went through… are you familiar with the river Lethe?" she asked.

Yua paused oddly. "Isn't that one of the five rivers that flow in the underworld in Greek mythology?"

"Indeed, but it is not a myth. We use the water from that river to ensure those who come here forget the details of this place but not the memories they made as long as the information does not interfere with the natural world. But… the problem is, bathing in it is fine, it's just enough to forget this place…"

She peered at Celine oddly. "And…" Yua asked in a hinting tone.

Celine paused but sighed. "Drinking the water on the other hand…"

Yua felt that this honeymoon has become a bust…
