The young lady bows and enters through the torii gate and feels the slight prickling of her skin.
"It is quiet, I must say." The lady says under her breath and with hushed steps, she approaches the temizuya pavilion to cleanse her hands and mouth.
Her steps were as light as a feather and as brisk as a feline when she approached the haiden. She throws a coin into the offering box, rings the bell - the sound tingles through the area, telling her that she was almost alone - she bows and claps twice, and finally says her prayer.
"Oh, Kami. I plead with you, help me. I am to be wed with a man that I do not love and also does not love me so. I come here with my anxiousness to be relieved, please, I am from a wealthy family and I will offer you lots, so please, Kami -
bestow me a lover that I know I will love, and I know will love me."
The lady bows for the last time, her eyes shut so tight as if to open them were a sin.
"What a ludicrous prayer." A blonde young man appears. Wearing a rose-colored kimono with a white haneri underneath, a black obi, haori, and hakama, and his setta sandals were of the same color of freshly watered grass with a pink strap. His attire resembles a noble man.
The lady, surprised, looks to her side. The blonde young man looked flawless and quaint, that one like the lady could easily say he was a god to be worshipped.
"Kami!" The lady says not more than a whisper. "But I am serious, can you not help me?" She adds.
The mischievous glint of the man's eye shined brightly, but the desperate woman was too blind to see this.
"This shrine is known to fulfill wishes! This shrine's name is the talk of town!" The lady adds, trying to flatter the blonde.
"Not such a thing has happened. Only even one man has gone up here to pray. It is only because the shrine is far out from the village." The blonde says with a distasteful tone.
The lady feels her heart swell in pain. "How rude of me! Please forgive me!" She says and drops to kneel on the ground with her arms stretched forward. "But please, Kami! Answer my prayer." Says the lady.
"Do not fret, I will answer your prayer." The blonde says. The lady instantly looks up with the corners of her lips stretching wide. "Are you certain, Kami?" She asks.
"For prayers to be answered, one must be good and has been good since then." The blonde says, trailing off and wipes a speck of dust from the altar.
"Oh no! What if I had sinned before?" The lady worried and her eyebrows creased.
The blonde only smiles and his blue eyes slowly look at her. "Then worry not! Do only good from here onwards. But here is my condition:
stay here until your prayer is answered."
