"How are you, Misomi? Do you feel better?" <Shin>

"Yes, I feel better now!" <Misomi>

Misomi showed an energetic smile to prove that she was indeed feeling better.

Seeing that, Shin smiled warmly.

"That's good to hear." <Shin>

He then proceeded to sit on the bedside instead of the chair that Maya had sat on earlier.

When Misomi noticed that, she was puzzled.

"Shin-Sama?" <Misomi>

She turned to look up at Shin to ask what's the matter, but all of a sudden she was hugged by him.

"Sh-Shin-Sama!?" <Misomi>

Misomi was surprised at the sudden behaviour from Shin.

With her head closely sticking to Shin's chest made her heart beat go fast. The sudden skinship with Shin made her blush as well.

"I'm really glad nothing terrible happened to you..." <Shin>

Hearing Shin's relieved voice, Misomi slowly calmed down. She was happy to hear that Shin was deeply worried for her.

She then hugged Shin in return.

"Yes, it was really scary all alone. But, knowing that Shin-Sama would come to my rescue, made it feel less terrible." <Misomi>

"Misomi, it's alright if you blame me. I was the one responsible for your safety. In the end, I failed. I'm really sorry." <Shin>

Shin told Layla that she shouldn't blame herself for what happened, but in the end, he was no different.

When Misomi heard that, her heart dropped. She didn't like it when the person she loves is blaming himself because of her.

"Nooo!"<Misomi>

Misomi cried out while pushing Shin away from the embrace.

"I don't want to hear Shin-Sama blaming himself!" <Misomi>

After shouting that, Misomi took a deep breath. After letting it out, she looked up at Shin with a serious look.

"It's true that Shin-Sama said that you will protect me. But at the same time, I can't always be protected by you. I'm already very grateful for all the things that Shin-Sama had provided me with ever since we met. So having to always rely on you is a mistake on my part. That's why, I should learn to protect myself." <Misomi>

Hearing her say that, made Shin happy. The quiet and shy girl that he first met, all of a sudden became so bold. It made him proud in a way.

Shin looked straight in the eyes of the serious Misomi, thinking of what to reply.

He then once again smiled.

"Alright, if you say with such a face, how can I say no? If you want to, I'll teach you some basic defence skills." <Shin>

"Yes, thank you Shin-Sama!" <Misomi>

Seems like the atmosphere had lightened up.

Now that there is nothing to say anymore, and since he already checked that Misomi is fine, Shin decided that it's time to go.

Before going off, Shin had one more thing to tell her. But before saying it, Shin took Misomi's right hand and proceeded to kiss it.

After a light peck, he spoke.
