Chapter 9 - 9

" hey cous, you ok ? " 

Seeing Avner out of it Miyeon called 

" Huh? Oh. Yeah, it's nothing. I guess I just got lost in thought "

Miyeon and Amabilis looked at each other and grind evilly than faced Avner 

" Ohh…..got lost in thought…..I see I wonder what you were thinking about for you to forget about your cousins "

Amabilis asked, to which Miyeon didn't fail to answer 

" I bet it was Nephthys " 

" I wasn't. And why do you even know her name ? "

Avner defended himself, even though they were right. He was thinking about her but not in the way his cousins were thinking about 

" Oh. I'm sorry I didn't know I wasn't allowed to know her name "

" So that is her name. That's quite a pretty one and it even fits with his name. The light and the dark. Its like you are meant to be " 

" I never said you weren't allowed to ….sigh….never mind I should go rest now " 

Avner stood up and started walking away 

" Of Course, you should go rest "

" You have an important appointment tomorrow "

" You be careful cousin, I heard a lot of men fancy her. It's tough out there 

Amabilis and Miyeon made sure they tease their cousin till the very last second 

Avner was finally at a distance away where he could no longer hear them

" A lot of men fancy her. Thats some bullshit "

Avner was thinking about the last sentence that Amabilis left out 

" Only weirdos would fancy a grim-reaper like her. Brr I am cold only when I'm thinking about her. That's right, why is it always cold when shes around It's like the temperature drops every time she comes into the picture. Is she always freezing, is her body temperature always low ? Ahhh why would I care if she's cold or not I should just go to sleep

" What is this ? " 

Avner cleared his throat 

" It's a shall "

" I can see that. I am asking why you are giving it to me " 

" Well you know…..you looked cold "

" Is that so ? " 

" Yes "

" But that shall doesn't look very warm though "

" Oh "

Now that he had a better look at it, it indeed didn't look very warm it was a little thin but that was the only black thing that he had found in his mother's closet 

Seeing his disappointed face Nephthys decided to accept it 

" Here hold this "

" Why would you give me your sword ? "

Avner was confused but Nephthys was looking annoyed so he stopped asking 

" Yes master "

and held her sword for her with one hand while in the other one he was still holding the shall 

" Give me this "

she was referring to the shall 

" This ? "

Avner pointed to the shall and Nephthys just took it out of his hand
