Chapter 11: Goodbye
After that day Irina had tried to stick close to Tatsuya like she used to but Miyuki would interrupt her most of the times and the times when Miyuki wasn't around Tatsuya gave her a cold shoulder and treated her the same like when she was his friend. Irina tried her best to change his behaviour but it was all in vain.
Tatsuya had also stared to remain expressionless most of the time and only showed his emotions when he was around his family, Shidous or was eating coffee jelly.
Tatsuya had also stated to draw some of the famous manga of his previous world as his account was starting to get dried up and knew that sooner or later he would have to start making money. Miyuki who saw his manga getting populer wanted to brag about her onii-sama to her friends only to get stopped by Tatsuya who told her that if others knew about him they would start bothering them and he would not be able to spend much time with her.
Hearing his reason Miyuki frowned and apologised for the mistake she was about to commit but was also happy to know that Tatsuya wanted to spend more time with her.
Miyuki's training had also increased and is now harder than before. She was talented but was still not a High class level. Her determination had started to decrease and this was noticed by Tatsuya. He was worried about Miyuki and was wondering about what to do to help her. While he was in a deep thought Kurumi came to his aid and said that she knew of a way to help him.
Tatsuya who thought that he would be able to help Miyuki believed her and agreed to whatever she planned but Tatsuya regretted his choice and it was too late for him to step back. Though Miyuki was now motivated more than ever the thing that Tatsuya had to do when she reaches high class was that he had to kiss Miyuki. Tatsuya cursed Kurumi but Miyuki always made him stop by making seductive noises in his mind. Tatsuya on hearing those noises would immediately blush and would start to avoid her by cutting their link.
For Tatsuya powers were not the only thing that grew at an enormous rate, his body too was maturing very fast and even though he was between six to seven years old his outer appearance was like a child of around nine or ten years old and he was on the way where people would start to call him handsome rather than cute.
Tatsuya had also nearly completed his highschool level studies and was now teaching Miyuki to also help her. In the school and other places many boys had tried to come close to Miyuki but stopped when Tatsuya glared at them but still some brave fellows thought of testing the waters and had met their demise by the hands of Tatsuya. Things were similar for the girls who tried to approach Tatsuya but Miyuki didn't got violent with them and just gave the girls and ice cold glare which turned into a bright smile whenever Tatsuya looked at her.
Time flew by like this and one year had passed and the time for Irina to go back to England had come. Right now Irina was clinging to Tatsuya like a koala and was crying while Miyuki kept on giving her a death glare but she ignored it and kept on saying things like she didn't to go and all that.
Right now Tatsuya and Miyuki were in Shidou residence and Tatsuya was preparing food along with Grace for the last time. Though they all were sad but they knew that they had to go back. Irina tried to ask her parents to take both the Shibas with them but her parents denied as the reason for which they were going was to train Irina to become an exorcist and knew it would be dangerous for the siblings.
Irina who heard this was really disheartened and lowered her head in silence.
The next day in front of Shidous house Tatsuya and Miyuki were there saying there goodbyes but Irina was standing in the corner still looking down. Tatsuya who saw her like that went towards her and flicked her forehead with a bit of force.
Irina who received the hit was hurt and tears were forming at the corner of her eyes. Tatsuya looked at her and said, "what are you being sad for, it's not like we will not meet in future you can always come back and we will be here anyways." Tatsuya came closer to her and kissed her forehead where he flicked.
Irina who was blushing hard from the kiss doesn't notice that Tatsuya tied something along her neck. When she came out of her stupor she looked down and found a silver necklace with a pendant in the shape of angel wings which had a violet gemstone in it just like the colour of her eyes.
Irina was about to confess to him but stopped when Tatsuya placed his finger on her lips and said, "save it for the next time we meet." Irina was blushing but still nodded.
Tatsuya went back towards Shidous who were looking at him and Grace started to tease him. While this was happening Miyuki came towards her and looked at her directly in her eyes. Irina too looked at her eyes with seriousness. Both Tatsuya and the Shidous were looking at both of them curiously.
Miyuki broke the silence and said, "Even though I don't like you much but still you were my friend so I will miss you, but don't expect that I will let you have onii-sama easily." Miyuki said the last part in a very cold voice but Irina didn't flinched and said, "don't worry I will claim him fair and square." They both glared at eachother for a while but dropped it off and started to smile.
All of them thought that both of them would come to friendly terms now but Miyuki said, "While you would be away from onii-sama till that time I would be much ahead of you so you will not stand a chance." Irina who heard this frowned and both of them started to bicker with each other. Seeing both of them the others sighed but still smiled as they thought that both of them had become closer. They all talked for a while and later the Shidous left for their flight
