Magical Love: Learn To Love In Another World

Chapter 12: Sudden Engagement Part Two

"Hello, Rei? " Kyle waved his hand in front of my face. But I was still in a daze. I mean who wouldn't be after being told such things out of the blue?

"Rei? Are you against it?" Able's voice entered my ear which was so soothing it could make anyone relax. I looked up at him and wondered to myself. Should I go along with this? I mean was I not interrupting the storyline? "Kyle, can you give us a minute?"

Kyle looked at Able then at me before nodding and leaving the room. With his cheeks, red Able scratched his head as he said: "First let me apologize for earlier. I had heard you had woken up and I was in such a rush that I did not stop to think to knock on the door. Resulting in me seeing something I shouldn't have."

Ahh! My mind was not ready for this conversation. I had just mustered up the courage to walk out here and face him then got hit with blow after blow causing critical damage. Now he wants to bring up the whole walking in on me while I was undressing event! Is he trying to go for the knockout? Doing my best to compose myself I said: "It's fine. We can just put it behind us. I know it was an accident. I won't hold you responsible or anything. But why the sudden engagement? And moving in with you?"

"Rei I know this is sudden and part of it has to do with that incident just now. But after speaking to that man who is supposed to be a father, I think this is the best option. I will not force anything on you. For now, we will be engaged, and if by the time you graduate the Magic Academy you have not come to love me we can go our separate ways. At least by staying with me you will be able to go to the academy and have a safe place to live that will also nurture your talents.

" Did you not ask me about teachers to help you train? I can offer all of that and a place where you do not need to worry about what will happen next." With Able putting everything out on the table like that, it all made sense. He at first decided to take responsibility for seeing me naked but then after meeting with my so called father he decided to take it a step further.

"It does seem like a good deal. But what about you and Alissa?" She was the female lead after all. Able was one of the male leads. Was he not supposed to fall in love with her and chase after her after the kidnapper incident?

"Alissa? What does she have to do with anything? If anything she is the enemy."

Enemy? What did Able mean she was the enemy? I could only wonder if the two got into a fight or something. But with Able's offer, I couldn't help but think of it as a good chance. I wouldn't need to worry about my life here in this mansion and he said I can go to the Magic Academy as well in two years' time. "Able I can accept your proposal. But I have two things I wish to add."

"Sure." Able eyes seemed to light up when I said I would accept. If I was a normal girl I would take this as him having some sort of interest in me. But I knew after Alissa and him interacted more that those two would end up falling in love. At that time my engagement with Able would be broken off and I could be on my own. So I have no choice but to harden my heart and do my best not to fall for Able during this time. No matter how good he treats me I can only think of him as a friend. Otherwise, instead of knowing what love is, I will know what heartbreak is even more.

"First is, if you find someone you truly wish to be with then let me know. I will leave your residence without a word. Second is that I want to concentrate on my studies while I am staying at your house." I would not come right out to tell him to leave me alone. That I did not want him to get too close due to Alissa and him. I hopped by saying these two things he would understand my underlying meaning.

"That's fine. Anything else?" Able seemed to have a strange look on his face but I was not sure what he was thinking.

Able's inner thoughts

This stupid girl has the wrong idea and is pushing me away! She thinks I am only proposing to her due to me seeing her naked but this is not the case Sigh For now, this is good. At least for the next two years, she will be living at my house and will be engaged to me from his day on. I will have plenty of time to woo her. I can take things slow until she falls in love with me.

"No, that is it. Thank you, Able." I was truly thankful to Able. He was giving me the ability to start anew in a place where I would not need to worry. A smile crept up on my lips as I looked at Able. It was too bad that he and Alissa would end up together. Otherwise No, I can not think like that. I will just watch from the sidelines as their friend.

*Bam!*

"What are you doing to my Rei!" I was given a shock when Alissa suddenly smashed the door open and rushed into the room. More so when she declared me as her property and then wrapped her arms around my neck hugging me and then turning her head to glare at Able. Why could I not see a trace of love or affection between these two? Why was it suddenly hostile all of a sudden?

"Your Rei!? I hate to tell you but as of today Rei is now my fiancee!"
