Chapter 3 - Marry me

| Bedroom |

I started to open my eyes, all I could see was the roof, the lights and the decorations.

(Who am I? and where else is this?)

.....

Few seconds later

Okay, I'm kidding. It's still me, Riyu. The same people in the library. I die? who said that? I will hit him.

Yah, maybe you're wondering why I'm not dead yet (to be honest, that's kind of harsh).

Okay, I'll answer it, I'm still alive because my transmigration happened about three years ago.. So the Riyu who was in the void and the one in the Library were the same person. Then why did I faint? to scare May? of course not! I'm not an asshole (at least I think so).

Well, I fainted because I was still missing something, namely the memory of the time I was in the Void. Three years ago only my feelings entered this body. You know, before that, I was just a soul focused on learning and getting strong.

Until it happened, and my unstable emotions woke me up.

Yes. even so, whether I am now, I was three years ago, or before that I am still the same person because they are still my soul.

Ok to be clear, like this

1. The beginning of my birth (while in the womb), that's when my soul entered my body.

2. Three years ago, I aroused my feelings.

3. Now, I got my memory. Even if it's just a memory of when I was in void.

…..

'Hah ... and now, after I know all this. I realized that I really did love her.'

I turned my head slightly, looking at the beautiful woman who was sleeping. She sat on a small chair, leaned half of her body on the bed and rested her head in her hands.

'I wish I could have seen this scene longer, but...'

I look at the clock in my room

I sighed once more then moved my hand to run through her hair.

"Um."

Mei started to open her eyes.

"Riyu?"

Mei stared at me for a while then she immediately jumped up and hugged me tightly.

"Yu, you finally woke up. You worry me."

She said, her hands shaking slightly and drops of water forming in the corners of her eyes.

"Sorry."

I hugged her back.

All this time I realized that Mei was quite lonely, although Mei herself didn't realize it.

Born with a genius, she does not understand the minds of children in general. That makes it hard to make friends. Her parents are busy at work so they are rarely home. Well, even though they still fulfill their obligations.

But with her mind, Mei is more mature and understands all that. She didn't complain, instead focusing her attention on the book. That was why she was not aware of her own loneliness.

If left like that, then she would become a very cold and scary girl.

Well, there's no need to worry because it will happen if she doesn't meet me.

When I found out about her, I started to approach her. When I got my feelings, I started to have more intention to get rid of her loneliness.

Once Mei feels my warmth she might be afraid of being lonely again? possible.

...

A few minutes later

Mei had removed her arms from me and sat back in her chair.

"How long have I been asleep for?"

"5 hours."

Mei said, returning to the calm and cold Mei. (I'm not saying scary because intuition returns.)

"Is that so. I thought it was 5 years."

"You are a sleepyhead, so 5 hours is the same as 5 years for you."

"Is that so? why is it a little wrong?"

"Dont think about it. You just woke up after all." She smiled slightly, enjoying the moment.

"Is that so…?"

Well, I'm not to blame. After all, the memories in the Void were quite traumatic.

So, back to the more important issue.

"Mei …"

I stared at her intensely, as if not wanting to miss the slightest detail.

"Um? Is there something wrong with my face?"

Mei started to slightly touch her face.

"Mei, I've made up my mind."

"Decide? Decide what?"

"I want to marry you, be my wife."

"...."
