THIRTY NINE

While waiting for their familiars to recover, Chairman and I have a conversation about the opening of summoning of familiars for the other hunters. I told him that I was thinking about it, because the familiars can also help in the upcoming disasters, an additional army.

"Are you going to introduce the familiar summoning?"-Chairman David.

"I was thinking about it Chairman, with all the upcoming threats, we need all the help we can get, we are lucky that Evienne came"-Demetri.

"Yes, we are lucky, she's a delight"-Chairman David.

"You like her don't you Chairman, for a moment there, I saw sparkle on those eyes"-Demetri.

I said to Chairman David, teasing him.

"What's not to like about her, she's perfect, beautiful and elegant"-Chairman David.

"You never got married Chairman, why is that?"-Demetri.

"I haven't met anyone who interests me and besides I am pretty busy, I don't really have time to date anyone, my friends try to set me up but it always doesn't work out"-Chairman David

He really does admire her, the way he looks at her, shows it all.

"Why don't you try to ask her out for dinner tonight"-Demetri.

I suggested to Chairman David, he look at me puzzled and I just smiled at him.

"Don't worry Chairman, she might be my familiar, but she can answer for herself unlike other familiars, she has her own free will, whatever her answer is, it is out of her own heart, but are you willing to date a single mom with thousands of children"-Demetri.

Chairman David laughed.

"Perhaps I can try to ask her out, thank you, Demetri, how about the familiar summoning?"-Chairman David

"We can talk about it tomorrow, I'll go to the HA so we can talk about it, for now, go and ask her out"-Demetri.

Chairman David smiled at me and walked toward where Evienne is and have a conversation about the dinner I suggested, because of my enhanced hearing, I can hear every bit of the conversation but I turn it off because it's being nosy.

I hear Evienne call out my name telepathically asking me about the dinner.

"Demetri, David asks me if I want to go out and have dinner tonight, is he asking me out?"-Evienne

"Yeah, he is"-Demetri

"Should I go? I don't know how long ago since I was asked out by someone. what if it becomes awkward? I become awkward? David is a fine and good man, and I actually like him the first time I saw him, I find him very attractive, so should I go or not? what do I do?"-Evienne.

"If you really want to go out with him, go Evienne, have fun, when is the last time you have fun?"-Demetri

"I really can't remember"-Evienne

"See, then go have fun Evienne, life must be enjoyed, even with all the negative things that is happening"-Demetri.

"Okay, I'll go out with him, thank you Demetri"-Evienne.

I watched Chairman and Evienne from a far as they exchange smile. Chairman David look in my way and smiled, a confirmation that Evienne said yes.

When the familiars are already recovered, we part ways. Evienne prepares herself for tonight. Chairman will be picking her up around 8 and since we have time, I insist that we go shopping.

I put the house on security mode to alert me if anything happens because they are a lot of break-ins recently, I still don't know who was or were behind it. I also left some summoned angels around.

We teleported to the largest mall around the area and I let Evienne roam around so she can choose from all the stores.

We pick a few outfits for her, not just for today but also for every day. We also pick some hair accessories and other lady stuff. We also went to a salon. And after all of it, we teleported ourselves back home and go wait at the entrance where we will wait for the Chairman to pick up her up just like I told him.

We did not wait for long and Chairman David arrive with his black Impala 67 which was customized a bit from the looks of it.

"Hello Evienne, Demetri"- Chairman David

"Good Evening Chairman, have fun you two, take care of Evienne Chairman okay"-Demetri.

"I will"-Chairman David.

Chairman David opens the car door for Evienne and we bid goodbye to each other. I was about to order pizza for dinner when Alice and Stephan arrive home and brought takeouts.

"Was that Chairman and Evienne earlier? are they going out?"-Alice

Alice asked while placing the take outs on the table for us to eat.

"Yes, it's them"-Demetri.

"Are they together?"-Stephan.

"Nope. or should I say not yet, Chairman David asked Evienne out for dinner earlier"-Demetri.

"They look so good together, they look like a power couple you see in movies"-Alice.

"Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you earlier that a perfect name, can increase your familiars' stats, did you name them already?"-Demetri.

"We are about to when we arrive home, now that you mention it, we really need to think of a meaningful name to give them"-Stephan.

"So, how is the date you two?"-Demetri.

I ask, teasing Alice and Stephan while we are eating, the two get shy all of a sudden, and again won't look at each other, but eventually smiled at each other.

"I can see that there is progress, I am happy for you two"-Demetri.

After we ate, I insisted on cleaning and washing up the dishes while they are naming the familiars. While washing the dishes, I hear Evienne calling me through telepathy and asking me to craft something for her.

"Evienne? What's up? Is something wrong?"-Demetri.

"Nope, nothing is wrong, I was actually having a great time, I was just going to ask you a favor"-Evienne.

"What is it?"-Demetri.

"You see, the necklace that I use to communicate with my sister got destroyed when last time when I was with your father battling the darkness, I was hoping if you could make me a new one, I was really worried with my sister because I do not know where she is or how she is"-Evienne.

"No worries, Evienne, you should have told me earlier, do you know how the necklace was made? I'm surprise you can't communicate with your sister through telepathy"-Demetri

"We used too but something happened and our lines were cut, especially when the we got separated due to our duties, but we usually met in the other world to bond, but after what happen I don't know what happen to her, I am really worried"-Evienne

"Don't worry Evienne, we will craft you a new necklace and we will find your sister"-Demetri.

"Thank you, Demetri, I left one of my sisters feathers in my room and a note on how our necklace was made and what are the items needed, but you need someone blessed of alchemy to craft it, and one of my children, the Stone Beavers"-Evienne

"I guess Alchemist were usually the ones summoned the Stone Beavers"-Demetri

"Yes"-Evienne

"Don't worry I know someone that can help me, wait, are you conversing with me in the middle of your date?"-Demetri.

"Yes, I was in here in the toilet"-Evienne

"Are you nervous and hide in there, and have this conversation with me to remove the tense?"-Demetri.

I don't hear anything from the other line, and I take that as an answer to my question.

"I take the long pause as a yes, you don't have to be worried about anything, Chairman David is a good man and I know that you will enjoy his company, go now and enjoy your night"-Demetri.

"Thank you Demetri, I really feel less anxious, it's just been so long since I go out with someone, I better go back now, I kept him waiting, thank you again"-Evienne

"You're welcome, I 'll wait for you to get home"-Demetri.

I was placing the plates in the cardboard when I felt something happen in the house, in my room particularly.

"Boss, something is happening, I think Queen of Sirens is awake!"-Kaya.

Kaya said to me then a loud sound of breaking filled the house and with Stephan and Alice, we rush to where the sound is coming from. When we enter my room, everything was in the wreckage and a confused Daya was standing in the middle of all of it.

"Daya?"-Demetri

"Kharis?"-Daya
