The Afternoon We Became Lovers in the Storage Room

A rainy afternoon. Right in the middle of the storage room, I fumbled something, got pulled into an embrace. Let me see your face, he said, and when I looked up — not going to laugh — a gentle kiss.

Then, close against my chest, the words fell.
I like you. I want to be your lover.

My heart gave a hard thud, and my head went briefly white. Still, all that came out of my mouth was yes — and I sent the wish back too, in my own words: not a visitor, not a soulbond, but stay, as my lover, Yu.

In the cramped little room, beside the desk, after another slow kiss, we laughed together — official, now. With the rusted pulley and the faint circle of a magic diagram looking on, the storage room on a rainy day became the place where Yu and Lysa became lovers.
