Listen to Your Heart

The journey from the Northern Mansion to the Spring family house that was located in the southern area under the Council's jurisdiction was moody and gloomy. Chiaki didn't say anything to Ignos Fire who was sent by Lance Hua to accompany her. In turn, Ignos Fire also kept his mouth shut, not wanting to offend Chiaki Spring who was clearly in a bad mood.

The distance was almost a hundred and fifty kilometres, but due to the fast train, they could reach the station near the Council hall in an hour. Along the way, autumn had started showing its beautiful face. It just felt like yesterday Chiaki married Lance Hua in a summer wedding, witnessed by important people in both households. It was just like yesterday they celebrated the winter together, with Lance giving her presents as he was busy in the Northern region for a few days, but he came nonetheless. He came during the New Year's Eve party that Chiaki and the other Guardians celebrated, and they danced.
