The Fox Goddess

Chapter 237 Making Breakfast

?"I'm fine, you don't have to worry. She is right, at first, I did feel that way. I blamed Yuki, I blamed her for everything. So, she has the right to blame me, or even hate me. I'm going to get some fresh air." Ayame slowly stood up, she then slowly made her way towards the balcony.

Her feet were heavy as she walks her way toward the balcony. Her previously beautiful Fox Ears dropdown. But, when she finally arrived she didn't expect to see Yuki there. Then, just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by Yuki.

Yuki placed an Ice Wall in the door to keep Ayame on the balcony, even though she could destroy it with ease, Ayame didn't as she know that her daughter was keeping her there.

"Wh- why did you stop me? Daughter- I mean Yuki?" Ayame rephrased her words and directly called her by the name.

"Is what you said true?" Yuki asked without looking back. She looked at the horizon that looked beautiful.

"Ye- yes. If you want me to prove it I can, just tell me how." Ayame answered her question.

"Prove it. Also, I'm not going to apologize for what I said earlier. Like what I said, you may call me your daughter, but I will never call you mother, even if you gain my trust." Yuki said, she then broke down the wall and walked past her.

Ayame felt heartbroken after hearing what Yuki said. Yuki is saying that she will not acknowledge her as her Mother.

"At least not yet," Yuki added as her fading back disappeared in the darkness.

Hearing this, Ayame was extremely happy. She didn't want to waste this chance that Yuki gave her.

"Yes, I will never let this chance go." Ayame clenched her fist.

Yuki was just overwhelmed by everything, especially on Aika's part when she said all of those things. But, even still. It doesn't mean that she truly loves Ayame again after hearing the truth. Even just thinking about her getting thrown away makes her sad. So, to put it to an end, she decided to open her closed heart one more time. If she is betrayed again, she doesn't know that will happen anymore:

As for Yuki, she was currently standing in front of her room with her hand on the door that was ready to knock.

Knock

Yuki knocked on the door three times and waited for an answer. But, after hearing no answer for a full minute, she was saddened. Just as she was about to leave, she heard the click on the door, and without wasting any more time, Yuki carried the small person in front of it and got inside.

"I'm sorry Aika." Yuki immediately apologized to Aika, she then hugged her even more tightly, and only released her when she felt something wet on her chest.

"Please don't cry." Yuki pleaded. She then raised Aika's face to look at her.

"Mommy…" Aika cried, even more, when she saw Yuki's sad face, she then clutched Yuki's clothes harder and buried her head in her clothes to silently cry.

"It's alright. Didn't I tell you that your Mother Fairy would always be with you? So don't cry anymore, even if your Mother Fairy isn't by your side anymore, I'm sure that she would be sad when you are crying like this." Yuki begins to pat her head to at least try to coax her a little.

Little by little, Aika's crying began to die down. Yuki was relieved when she saw this, and when she saw that Aika has become more stable, she then laid down beside her, with Aika in her arms.

"Sleep now, I know that you are tired, or do you want to eat a little? You haven't eaten for a whole day." Yuki asked, then when she heard Aika's stomach grumble, she took it as her answer. Yuki then sat Aika on her lap and called Asuka to bring some food to Aika.

"I'm sorry." Aika lowered her head, she thought that she was bringing even more trouble because of her past actions. Not only did she trouble the maids, but she also troubled her Mommy, because she was the one who was feeding her.

"It's fine. If you think that you're troubling me, you're wrong. I was also just like you back then, but I was much worse. I didn't eat for a whole week, and I didn't even drink any water at that time. Heh, it was even a miracle that I lived." Yuki laughed to herself.

It was when she first arrived in Yuto Sasaki's world, she refused to eat because there is always that fear of her getting poisoned by all of them. But, she only opened up a little when the maid that she trusted became hers.

"What? Mommy was also like me when she was young?" Aika looked at Yuki with disbelief, she couldn't believe that her cool Mommy was also the same as her when she was also a child.

"Yes, in fact, I was much worse than you. But, let's not talk about that for now. What you need to do is eat up, and sleep." Yuki smiled at her, and she then brought another spoon of food for Aika to eat.

After a few minutes, Aika finished eating, and she brushes her teeth before sleeping. But, Yuki didn't leave her at all, and always stayed by her side, so that she could feel at ease. Yuki saw that Aika became more clingy to her, and refused to leave by her side even for a second.

"I hope that as she grows up she doesn't become so attached, or relied on me that much. If that happens, she will never grow up." Yuki sighed, Aika was already fast asleep in her arms, so she stayed there silently.

After organizing her thoughts a little, Yuki closed her eyes and also slept.

But, when she opened her eyes. She didn't expect something like this to happen. Ayame was in front of her with a tray full of food, and just by taking a look at it, Yuki could see that it was made by Ayame herself. She remembers all of it, as it was her favorite food when she was still a kid.

"What are you doing?" Yuki slowly moves her body so that Aika would not wake up, she could already feel a massive headache right in the morning when she saw what Ayame was up to.

"I'm making you breakfast! Didn't you give me a chance to make it up to you? I'm going to make you call me Mother like you used to. Also, since we and Serene are not allowed in the Mortal World, we only have a limited time. So, I'm going to use all of it with you." Ayame happily announced to Yuki.

"You- Do whatever you want." Yuki stood up, and entered the bathroom to get ready, when she comes out, she was already dressed.

"Come here, sit with me." Ayame invited Yuki to a small table to sit next to her.

"I cooked everything that is in here, I hope that you like it."

"Yeah, I can tell." Yuki picked up the chopsticks and began to eat.
