The hug feels so warm. I could even smell Tiara's body because it was so close, and that might make me addictive to it.
"Aw! That's hurt!"
My world get destroyed by Gen's scream.
Tiara suddenly let go of her hug. The warm that makes me really safe move away. I'm kinda disappointed when it happen.
***
Gen just mentioned appellation in front of Selene, his own Aditi. That makes Selene quite jealous and pinching Gen's thigh.
"Aw! That's hurt!"
"Playboy"
Selene answer whisperly. Won't make the two in front of them notice what they did. For Gen, he quite angry but still response silently.
"You got jealous just because of that!"
Selene only respond by inflating her cheeks. Looking at Tiara slowly move back at her sit.
Gen that feel quite guilty, stratching his neck and sorry to a couples who were previously in their world.
"I'm sorry, Tia. Accidentally ruined your romance"
Hearing Gen say sorry to them, Tiara's face gotten red and she speak hastily.
"No-no, I'm the one should sorry! Because doing that kind of things in front of pepole is ... "
"Hm?"
Tiara feels really shame. Yet a man on the bad wondering.
"Why you should feel guilty. I'm the one here who brings things up and got depressed. You had nothing wrong. Actually, I must thank to what you have done before"
Tiara got atracted and have a face to face while Gan speak nice to her. Altough her cheeks gotten more red than before, she is somewhat calmer now.
After Gan finished his words. The only thing happened is those two staring at each other silently.
"Uhum-uhum"
Then Selene clearing throat broke their world.
"I'm sorry to stopped you guys moment, but we still have a thing to do here, right Gen?"
"Ha? O-oh, right, Gan"
"Ha?"
Everyone in the room is confused except the android girl who from the start only staring at who is talking in the room.
"I still have a lot of things to tell you"
"Oh, well, you're right"
Even Gen almost in every moment playing with his words, now Gan looks like won't mad at him. Actually, he looks calmer than before.
"Okay, the most important things you have to know"
Everyone in the room listen carefully to what Gan want to say.
"Eveytime you get depressed. Always search for Tiara's huge to calm you down"
"Eh!?"
"Aw!"
Tiara got shocked and Gan got pinched again.
Selene staters at her Adetya cruely because of his lack of seriousness.
"That's not the one you should tell now"
"But that is also important to him. Right, my dude?!"
Gen throwing questions to Gan. Gan looks at Tiara at that question. Tiara got nervous at Gan stares and talk.
"We – we can't do that right in front of people"
Tiara became very nervous when confirming Gen's words.
For Gan, he still quite confused about something happened right now.
"Can I ask a question out of topic?"
"Sure, my dude"
"Is that kind of relationship is casual between Adetya Sterling and their Aditi?"
"~Weeell"
Gen look at his Aditi and his Aditi look back at him before he answer.
"I can't say another couples is like the way we used to be. But, what you must know is they connect their life force with us and bless us the second chance and power you know"
"I can understand that. But that still confused me is ..."
Gan stopped his words right before it finished. That made his Aditi curious about what's the rest of his words. Luckily, his senior cover him up.
"Well, all I gotta say is, they are just like a mother who give you a second chance to life"
"Mother?!"
Selene scream right after Gen mentioned them as a figure who give birth to their Adetya. She seems really shock to what she just heard. Even another Aditi inside the room got so nervous again after listen to that.
"Mo.. mother?"
Tiara muttered on her bow. Her two hands gripping her thigh tightly to vent her nervous.
"But! You said we are a goddesses for you!"
"I retract my words, aha ha ha ha!"
Selene stand up when Gen didn't dodge his words. Then she make a fight pose and start punching.
"You stupid-stupid-stupid-stupid-stupid-stupid" and she didn't stop.
Gen only parry Selene's soft blow with his two palms. Laughing gently when his partner doing cute things.
"How close your relationship?"
"Hm?"
Gan's question made Gen catch Selene's hands. Then,
"Wha – "
Gen pull Selene's body through her hands into him and attach their bodies together. He even put his right hand to Selene's waist to not let her go.
Selene's face for the first time gotten red just like Tiara now.
"As close as we can't sleep without the other"
"Wha – wha – what are you do – "
Selene slam her head against Gen's iron head. That's make Gen release her, though she paid with a pain in her forehead.
"What are you doing? I've already told you not to attack me in the head instead"
Selene squatted and holding his aching head. Gen feels guilty and get closer to her.
"Are they always like that?"
The quite confused Gan thrown a question at his Aditi, who act more strangely after Gen flirt.
"E – eh, uh, they.. they not always do that. But, all I know is they really love each other"
"Love each other, huh"
Gan staring at the scent where Gen look at Selene's forehead. After that he turn and look at Tiara again. Tiara got nervous again when Gan look at her silently.
She can't act normally, and all she does is glancing other direction to avoid Gan's gaze.
"Well, that's what I said"
Gen finally stand up again after calming down Selene, then he continue talking.
"How do you want them to be is up to you"
"As long as you don't think of us as your mother, please"
Selene continue Gen's words while stroking her forehead.
Gan looks like already understand what's his postition right now. Then what he want to know next is,
"What are you, Aditi? I mean, you guys looks like just ordinary girl outside, but that's not it, right?"
"Well, we are – "
Selene is about to answer Gan's question. But Gen shut her mouth with his big hand and replace her to answer the question.
"You don't want to hear the explanation. Trust me"
Even though Gen speak seriously, Gan only give him a dead-fish-look at his respond.
"Okay, I'll make it easy and quick for you"
Gen lift one of his gloved fingers up and continue.
"What do you think of Yggdrasil? It's not just ordinary tree for you, right"
Gan thinking for a few moment of Gen's words.
"I can definitely agree with you. But what their connection to these girls?"
"Well, you see, Yggdrasil is a thousand years old tree that grows on this world when it on a really hard condition"
"What condition?"
"Have you heard what if our world, earth, once again carrying out world war. The worse thing happened is what if nuclear countries use their nuclear to attack each other?"
"I don't know the detail but the worse things going to happen is nuclear winter phenomenon"
"Exactly. And the thing is, this world, a thousand years ago, hit by nuclear war that might be more severe than would happen in our world"
A moment of silent filling up the room in a few second. Soon after that Gen continuing.
"There is nothing left except this place, that protected by The Great Yggdrasil"
"But isn't this place and Yggdrasil protected by the invisible wall?"
"Nahh dude, the generator of the wall machine can run because it is connected to the photosynthetic cycle of this tree. By connecting it directly to the root"
"Is that even possible?"
"Dude, is that possible that you can come back to life from death?"
Gan paused at Gen's question. That makes no sense. Yet it's happening right now. So he can argue with that.
"Okay, I get it know. So this place can survive all thanks to Yggdrasil. Then why are they, or how ..."
"You confused on how to make the question? Don't worry my dude, I'll back you up"
Gen putting his right hand to Selene shoulder. Look at her in a few moment, make sure that she is not carried away by the topic. Then he look at Tiara, which where they both seem to be okay.
"To get through dark times where extreme weather is happening on the planet, they make themself on a really deep sleep that can make them sleep for a thousand years. How you may ask? They got what it's called a sleeping capsule of course. And for them, the elevent special girls, Aditi, they sleep and connecting their capsule directly to the tree. So when the tree can ensure that the planet is safe and can be resettled a second time, they will automatically wake up from their deep sleep"
