1170 Why is it wrong?
"If it is something your heart desires,
I'd say go for it."
Amaya spoke, her eyes still closed as her head was on her mother's lap, it was as if she was imagining everything she just said.
"Amaya! How can you say something like that?"
Riona, of course, couldn't believe what her daughter was saying. Suddenly, Amaya turned around as she glanced at her mother and,
"What's the problem?" she questioned.
"What's the problem? Amaya, what is not the problem here? Is it really you talking?
Did you forget how you used to tell me not to aim for your husband because of how much you loved him? What happened to you?"
"I was an immature brat back then, Mother. There are already so many women around him and the number will only increase in the future, why can other women have him but you cannot? That simply makes no sense, now does it?
Mother, I will repeat what I said before,
If it is something you desire, go for it.
Actually, I would prefer if you do go for it, after all, I need a sister who I can trust with my eyes closed."
"S-Sister...?"
Riona had no clue what her daughter was on about, her brain was not working because of the sheer possibility of what Amaya was talking about. Her thoughts were wandering around, scenes of her standing together with Nux as he held her hand started playing in her mind. She shook her head, trying to get these thoughts out of her mind and focus, that however, wasn't working.
"Well if you do in fact end up marrying my husband, won't you become my sister? A mother who is also my sister.
That would be quite an interesting relationship, don't you think?"
"That would be a preposterous relationship! It is wrong on so many levels!"
"Why is it wrong? I do not hate you, you do not hate me, I can guarantee Nux does not hate you, and I can tell you do not hate him either,
Then what's the problem if we form this relationship?"
"I do not hate Nux, but I do not see him that way either."
Riona's thoughts were clear.
"Are you sure?" Amaya questioned, a slight playful smile appearing on her face as she did.
Riona momentarily turned silent, no matter how many times she tried, she couldn't deny the fact that she did spend some time alone with Nux, a moment that no other mother-in-law should spend together with her son-in-law. It didn't matter whether it was a 'reward' or not, just being there with him made her guilty.
Riona couldn't say 'no', no matter how hard she tried.
"But it is wrong..."
She muttered, looking into her daughter's eyes.
"I will ask the same question again.
Why?
If all 3 people involved here don't have any issues with it, then why is wrong?"
"..."
Riona had no answer to this question.
"Mother, you were forced to marry that sorry excuse of a man before, you never enjoyed the true moments with the person you actually loved,
The me who told you to stay away from Nux was selfish, the me now is different.
Mother, Nux is a man I trust. If it is him, I am sure he can fill the void in your life and complete it and you know the best part?
You wouldn't have to part away from me ever again because Nux does not like separations with his dear wives."
"..."
Riona didn't say anything. She just continued to observe her daughter whose eyes were shining as she was talking about this new possibility in front of her.
Riona started thinking.
Thinking about how happy her daughter looked after meeting Nux. She recalled how Nux made it possible for her to meet her daughter, released her from her bindings, convinced Amaya to give her a second chance, and fixed their relationship.
Honestly, if it weren't for Nux, Riona knew that she would have to spend the rest of her without as much as seeing her daughter's face and being trapped as that man's wife.
Nux was like her savior.
A savior who was... shameless... but had nothing but love for people he deemed his.
"What... what makes you think Nux would accept this?"
Riona questioned and suddenly, Amaya turned silent as she stared at her mother with a deadpan look on her face.
"Mother, you look like me.
There is no way that man would reject a Second Amaya."
"A Second Amaya huh..."
"Well that is just how strong my charm is. Now whether you break through and become his 'only Riona' or stay as a 'Second Amaya', that depends on you, but your competition is quite difficult, okay? I have Nux under my complete control. He has completely fallen under my charm."
"...are you trying to compete with your mother?" Riona questioned.
Amaya, however, shook her head, "There is no competition here, Mother.
His heart already belongs to me and I assure you that it is never changing.
The only thing you can do here is take a part of that heart, as for how you do it,
Well, that would depend on your charm, no?
I am looking forward to it."
Amaya spoke as she made herself comfortable and closed her eyes again. She tried to act indifferent, the smile on her face, however, gave away how much she was enjoying the current situation.
"I never agreed to your proposal," Riona spoke.
Amaya, without opening her eyes, replied,
"You can always deny it, you can go out and try to find a man better than Nux, or you can try living alone, trying to be much happier than you would be if you get together with Nux. The only thing I want is your happiness, Mother. As for how you achieve it, I will be with you no matter what option you choose.
The point of this conversation was to tell you that, I will not mind it.
I am actually looking forward to it,
So again, if you feel a spark coming from your heart at any point in time,
Go for i-"
Amaya suddenly turned silent.
A frown appeared on Riona's face due to her abrupt silence, but then, she saw a Portal appearing right in front of her eyes.
"Mother, we need to go in," Amaya spoke.
"What? What happe-" Riona wanted to question, but before she could complete, Amaya stood up, grabbed her hand, and pulled her into the Portal as if she was in some sort of hurry.
