“Ai Fa, Rimee Ruu may end up thinking the same way as Jiba Ruu. Do you think she would really accept her own father plotting to crush her precious Ai Fa? Rimee Ruu may leave her clan alongside Jiba Ruu. And if she can’t then she may live her whole life hating her father, right?” Ai Fa turned pale, looking absolutely shocked. That pained face caused me to claw at my own chest, but even so, I continued on. “That’s the sort of challenge we’ve taken on. If you can’t stand that, then no matter how much shame it may bring you, we should call it quits here and now. We’re... only thinking of our own lives and our own pride, after all.”

That was especially true of Ai Fa. She really should be more aware of how loved she was by the people around her.

No matter what happened to her, no one would be sad. No one would get angry. That’s what she had thought for these past two years of her life.

I thought that strength of hers was amazing. That loneliness didn’t eat away at her tenacious soul, and I respected that from the depths of my heart.

But... even Ai Fa had made at least that one mistake.

Even as she distanced herself from others, Ai Fa was thinking of Rimee and Jiba Ruu inside. So Ai Fa should have realized the possibility that they were thinking of her just as much, too.

The only people who could achieve true isolation are probably those who never think of anyone else. Anyone who possessed a heart capable of loving others could never truly wish to live all by themselves.

“...Ai Fa. What we need to do hasn’t changed.” I gripped Ai Fa’s hands tight. “We’ve just got to win this fight and satisfy Donda Ruu. That way, no one has to get hurt. Jiba Ruu won’t need to leave her clan, and Rimee Ruu won’t end up hating her father. We just need to satisfy Donda Ruu with a delicious meal.”

If we bowed down to Donda Ruu now, we would lose pride, honor, trust, and status... but we wouldn’t lose Jiba and Rimee Ruu.

I didn’t think that was enough, though. I wanted to be involved with the Ruu clan in a better way than that. And that feeling only grew stronger by coming here today and seeing so many people.

“You can see the proper path forward, can’t you, Asuta...?” Granny Jiba quietly whispered. In response, I smiled back at her as gently as I could manage.

“I don’t know if it’s the proper choice or not. But all I can do is prepare delicious food. Look forward to three days from now, Jiba Ruu.”
