Leto District

After Yota leaves, I finish what I started. With my hand, I reach toward her, but just before I can make contact with her, she moves her head toward me reviling her face.

The light shining through the window onto her is bright yellow. The white clothes she's wearing at the moment are making her green hair stand out.

She's so timeless at this moment, like a painting. I can barely get myself to wake her up. So peaceful, so beautiful.

With my hand, I caress her long green hair. Captivated by the beautiful soft hair, I fail to notice her waking up.

''Aalish?''

She says half asleep looking at me, just realizing that I'm patting her head.

''Oh, good morning.''

I replied calmly with no thought of removing my hand.

She looks at me and my hand stretching on her.

''What are you doing?''

She says innocently with a confused face.

''I just thought your hair is very long and soft. So, I wanted to try patting it.''

Realizing what I am doing, my hand stops patting her head. Her hair now messy, with her deep red crimson eyes behind it make me blush seeing how cute this scene is.

Turning around that my blush isn't seen while trying to make a good excuse my thinking gets interrupted.

A sound of a chair being pushed back is made.

'' I want to try it too!''

She screams just before she jumps onto my back making me fall right on the hallway so that I can see the exit door if I turn my head to the right side.

''Aagh!''

Lying on my stomach, she sits on my back and runs her fingers through my hair.

''Ah! Ovia stop!''

Without listening to me she keeps making a mess out of my hair.

''HHEHEHEHE''

She laughs smiling holding me down with her weight. I try to move my hand and legs but it's futile.

''Aalish your hair is really weird! It's really fluffy and smooth and light yellow!''

She says with an excited voice.

''What do you mean it's weird! My grandpa cut it! It's blonde, not light yellow!''

I say while trying to get out of her inescapable prison.

''What do you call this hairstyle! It's so fun to touch your hair Aalish! Hehehe!''

Like I was captivated by her hair she's now captivated by mine, but now that I think about it isn't Yota waiting for us?

''Ovia you have to stop Yota is waiting for u-''

Just when I am about to finish the sentence, the exit door opens.

''Aalish I've been waiting for far too long! I know I said fifteen minutes, but I expected you to be here in max of 5 minutes! what are you duin-''

Finally, his gaze lands on us, his expression changes four times in those 3 seconds his gaze was on us.

From anger to confusion, from confusion to surprised, from surprised to seriousness.

With no word left he leaves the room while I and Ovia stare at him leaving.

''What was that about?''

She says calmly

''Aalish?''

Lying with my face to the ground I reprocess what just happened.

Ahh, how will I face him now, this is so embarrassing!

''Aalish, you okay?''

She says with concern

''Yeah, I'm good, let's just go outside…''

Now outside, we are both standing in front of Yota.

''You both have amazing hairstyles.''

Yota says with no enthusiasm.

Ovia is just smiling at him while keeping her hands behind her back and swinging her body just a bit.

We're at the front on the one-night stay place, I don't know what Yota wants us to do but..

''Well, I'm assuming you both have money, right?''

He asks.

Ovia shakes her head left and right implying that she doesn't have any money.

''I do have some.''

''Well then, I'll have you get some food, clothes and I guess that's all if you find anything useful you can take it. Also, about the money I'll repay you later, don't forget to buy enough food for the three of us, oh and don't get lost this place's big, we meet again here in three hours okay?''

He says while walking away taking his leave.

''Hey, Yota!''

He turns around.

''Where the hell are we?''

''Oh, I totally forgot to tell you, we are in Leto district so don't cause any ruckus!''

Smiling he walks away.

''Aalish, do you know anything about this Leto district?''

Ovia asks in confusion.

''Oh, yeah, Leto district is a district with no family.''

We start walking away from the one-night stay place.

''It's made up of strong people who really care about this world.''

To our left and right there's a bunch of food stands, from cooked meat to just vegetables, everything.

''They clean up, the messes other people make if they don't do it themselves, also they are one of the strongest districts around here.''

The streets are full of people, I can feel some stares targeted at me and Ovia since we both are wearing weird clothes.

''They don't like wars, they only had one, and that was the one when this district was created. They conquered a branched district of Kasumi district, and that now is the Leto district.''

Looking to my left I can spot a clothes shop. Grabbing Ovia's hand I pull her through the crowd, we get to the shop. I let go of her hand to open the door to the shop.

I look at her to see her looking at the shop with eyes full of excitement.

''Is this your first time at a shop?''

''Yes!''

She answers smiling.

With no warning, she heads ahead and opens the door to the shop. The shop is small but full of clothes.

Colorful, everything's colorful. Behind me, I can hear Ovia being excited while I'm being distracted by the colorful clothes.

I turn around to look at her, but she's gone. The moment I took my eyes of her she disappeared.

''Uh? Ovia!?''

I can't seem to find her in this endless place of clothes. Even if I get on my toes, I can't see her because she's like ten centimeters smaller than me.

''Yeah? I'm here!''

A voice behind me? I turn around to see her with a pile of clothes in her hands, with her eyes barely out on top.

''I want to try this on! Where do I change?''

''The cabin is there you change in there, nowhere else, okay?''

''Yeah okay.''

She answers while smiling.

Hmm, but now that I think about it, what should I get.

Passing by the bunches of clothes I spot the baggy section. I get closer to find a red oversized jacket, it's not too red it's just enough. A little darker, not to stand out. Searching ahead I find a black t-shirt and black regular fit jeans.

After ten minutes. I am finally in my clothes. I wonder how Ovia's doing.

As I get to check up on her.

''TAA DAA!''

She gets out of the cabin with a black skirt, black thigh highs, and a white long sleeve turtle neck.

'' What do you think?''

She says standing proud with a bunch of other clothes he tried sitting on the ground.

But now that I look at her, she has quite a figure. Her hips and mainly whole body looks more curved now that she isn't in those baggy clothes.

''Those clothes look really good on you.''

I say with a smile

''Well now let's get our hair fixed.''

''What? We're getting our hair fixed!?''

The excitement from before returns.

''Yeah.''

We pay at the counter for the clothes and are about to leave the shop.

Just as we leave the shop.

''Get here you little kid!!''

Guards yelling?

''Hehehe, like hell I will!''

A little girl runs past us in a second. She has long messy dark hair and is wearing a ladies dress half brown half white.

Looking at her running away again another person runs past me.

Wait is that…

…Ovia?

''Ovia what are you do-''

Ahh, I better go after her, what is she doing? I don't want to have problems in this district…
