Chapter 273 - 272 - Did We Do "It"?

A few days passed.

"Hey, Noah, what do you think? We will train today?" Ciaphia had arrived early at Noah's house to stay together with him.

When she arrived, he was sitting on the couch in the living room looking dejected. He was sipping a cup of tea in silence and hadn't even said hello to Ciaphia.

"I'm not in the mood, leave it until tomorrow."

"You said that yesterday. You have to cheer up, come on. If you keep this up you're going to make your mother worry. She's doing everything she can to get back to living normally."

"I understand...."

"Okay, I'll respect your decision." Ciaphia was silent and then took a deep breath. She leaned her back against the couch and then looked up at the ceiling.

Noah next to her looked at her for a moment, but then looked away and took another sip of his tea.

"You know, my birthday is coming up." Ciaphia suddenly said this.

Noah next to her took his mouth off the cup.

"That's right, I said I would celebrate your birthday."

"Yes, been four months since then and my birthday is coming up."

"I see... Mine too."

"Is it serious?"

"Yes, in a short time I will turn 14."

"I see."

"But I hadn't forgotten that, the promise I made to you."

"..."

"And of course, I will celebrate your birthday, just tell me the exact day and we will set up a party for you." Noah put a smile on his face. 

Realizing that fake smile, Ciaphia became disheartened.

"You don't have to force yourself to do that."

"I am discouraged, but I would never break that promise."

"..."

After the short discussion between the two, Noah left his house along with Ciaphia and walked around the village for a while. Noah found his mother and father and the two were acting normal.

Besides them, Lisandra also seemed to be recovering quickly. I don't even need to talk about Lari, she didn't even seem to remember what had happened.

Noah began to wonder if he was the unique cared about the death of his brother (sister)

####

Then a few days passed and Ciaphia's birthday had arrived.

She was turning 18 years old.

"Okay, everything is almost ready now. Since we had more time to prepare your party, I also invited the village people to celebrate together with us." Emma said excitedly as she welcomed Ciaphia into her home.

When Ciapha entered along with Noah, Taciane, and Eli, she found a large amount of food being prepared.

It was a big pan full of meat, another full of soup, another full of fruit salad.

And sure they couldn't forget the drinks either.

A large amount of liquor and a large amount of beer and wine were stored in the refrigerated cabinet.

"I can't believe it, this is all for me? I thought you guys would have a small party."

"Well, since you are my son's girlfriend I thought I would have a big party."

"So I didn't gain a big party because I'm not Noah's girlfriend? That's unfair." Taciane complained and Eli slapped her on the head.

"Don't complain."

"It's okay, I was just kidding."

"Ahahaha." Ciaphia gave an infectious laugh and then thanked her again.

"Thank you so much for everything, but you didn't have to try so hard."

"Of course, I should. You're the girl who will one day give my grandson life, aren't you?"

"What?"

"All right, now I need to get back to work. If you want to help, start by helping Lucio set all the tables outside."

"Ahh...Okay..." Still dismayed about Emma's statement, Ciaphia left the house along with Noah to help Lucio put the tables and lights in the right places.

While helping, Ciaphia continued to keep a shocked expression on her face remembering what Emma said.

'That's right, Noah and I...'

####

After everything was prepared, the party got underway.

It was a party for everyone in the village. Several tables were set up right in front of Noah's house, plus a good amount of benches so that everyone could sit down and eat.

Then after all the guests arrived, the banquet began.

Along with the banquet, the alcoholic drinks were running out and many people started to get drunk before they could even congratulate Ciaphia.

But she didn't seem to care much; she was one of the people who were already drunk. Besides being drunk, she also seemed quite excited about something, causing her to rub her body against Noah.

She would say things like "Me and Noah, we are going to have a child" or "I want to have a child together with Noah."

And Noah who was not drunk could not help but feel embarrassed.

The other kids under 15 who were also not drinking looked at that scene and started making jokes. Because of this Noah came home.

And after he entered, Ciaphia also entered.

Inside the house now were just the two of them.

"What's wrong? Aren't you happy?" Ciaphia was very drunk, so Noah decided to ignore her for a while.

'I hope she gets tired soon and goes to sleep. I didn't think Ciaphia would be someone so hard to deal with in these situations.' He thought Lisandra was someone hard to deal with, but she didn't even compare to Ciaphia.

"Come on, tell me..."

After Noah sat down on the couch, Ciaphia walked over and put her head on his.

"I'm happy, just a little embarrassed."

"What, you don't want to have a child with me?"

"It's not that, it's just that you shouldn't be saying that kind of thing in front of everyone."

"Oh, that's right, I said it in front of everyone." Noticing what she had done, Ciaphia put her hands on her face and began to twist on the couch.

"My god I said that in front of everyone, what have I done?" Noah began to laugh at the situation and then gave her a weak slap right on her leg.

"No need to act like that, everyone else is drunk too and will forget what you said."

"Are you sure?"

"Of course."

"Good..." Relieved, Ciaphia again leaned her head this time on Noah's shoulder. 

She started to get "heavier and heavier" so Noah realized that she had slept.

'Great, it shouldn't be too long before the party is over. I don't want another one of these parties so soon.'

####

The next morning Noah woke up in his bed as usual, but something was strange.

After fully regaining his senses, he removed the blanket and found Ciaphia lying in his bed right next to him.

Fortunately, she wasn't naked, so they hadn't done anything.

Noah didn't act like he was desperate, he was just surprised at that.

"I thought she left yesterday. I didn't even drink, why am I having amnesia?" He scratched his head and then prepared to take a shower.

After taking a shower, he changed his clothes and then decided to wake Ciaphia.

"Hey, wake up." He shook her a few times, but couldn't wake her up, so he decided to bring his face closer to hers and then blew into her ear.

"Waaa?" After that, Ciaphia stood up looking startled.

After fiddling in her ear a bit, she raised her arms and opened her mouth.

"Where am I?" she looked around while rubbing her eyes.

"Huh?" and as she did so she noticed Noah's presence right next to her bed.

"Noah, what are you doing in my house so early?"

"In your house? This is my room." He smiled.

Then Ciaphia froze for a few seconds before looking around again and realizing that she was indeed in Noah's room.

Realizing this, her face turned red and she began to have flashbacks of the previous night.

"No, it's not possible, did we do that?" With a shaky voice, Ciaphia began to struggle on the bed.

'She's having a misunderstanding, but still, I can't tell if she's happy or sad...'

"Don't worry, we didn't do anything."

Hearing Noah, Ciaphia stopped struggling on the bed and looked up at him. Her eyes were wide open and they were shining.

Shining because of the tears that had formed.

"What is it?" Realizing this Noah became worried, but Ciaphia just wiped away her tears and sat up in bed.

"It's nothing."

"I understand... It's time for coffee, shall we?"

"Okay, but don't ever scare me like that again."

"But I didn't do anything, you were the one who was drunk and laid in my bed along with me."

"Whatever, just don't scare me like that. I thought we did that, you know?"

"I thought so too, but since we weren't naked, I dismissed that idea. And it wouldn't be a good thing to do that at that age either, would it?"

"..."

"All right, I'll go out first, you can wash your face in the bathroom and then go to the table, okay?"

"Okay..."

After that Noah left the room and Ciaphia was left there alone.

She threw herself on the bed and put her face on Noah's pillow.

'I know I shouldn't be wishing this, but I wish we had done that... But if we had I wouldn't remember anything....'
