Will You Take Me In?
Chapter 53 - Will You Take Me In?
"Is that right?"
Speaking of her own beliefs, coupled with the series of twists and turns, Asia could not understand anything.
She simply looked blankly at Mahiro.
"Of course it is, otherwise, in modern society, how can this rather outdated rule still exist?"
Mahiro said, despite his reluctance.
"Even though Japan has a very open atmosphere, Kuoh Town is an exception."
"It has always been conservative, and everyone sees no problem with it."
Asia showed a conflicted expression on her face.
Mahiro looked at the sky as if gazing at someone and said somberly.
"This must be the Lord's will, recognizing Kuoh Town and allowing it to maintain its customs."
Suddenly, it all made sense to Asia.
At this moment, Asia was very confused.
On the one hand, it was her own beliefs; on the other hand, she felt Mahiro's request was too sudden.
Asia remained silent for a long time under Mahiro's gaze.
"Well, if... would you take me in?"
Finally, she raised her head with difficulty, bit her lip, and asked.
"Certainly," Mahiro nodded without hesitation.
"I promise you."
Hearing this, Asia seemed to have a great weight lifted from her heart, and a relaxed smile appeared.
"But..."
Asia suddenly seemed to remember something and became a little uneasy.
"But what?"
Mahiro asked.
"If I'm with you, can I continue to believe in the Lord?"
Asia thought this question was very important.
If she didn't get an answer, she might be unfortunate in her future life.
Asia looked at Mahiro uneasily, hoping to get a positive answer from him.
It wasn't that she was suspicious.
Although Mahiro used the Lord as an excuse to persuade her, Asia knew that many people didn't believe in the God of the Bible.
If she became Mahiro's wife, she would have to respect each other's beliefs.
However, she was unwilling to give up her faith.
"No problem!"
Mahiro said generously.
"Thank you!"
Asia bowed gratefully to Mahiro.
"My name is Mahiro."
"You can just call me by my name!" Mahiro said with a smile.
"My name is Asia Argento. Please take care of me from now on!"
Asia introduced herself nervously and bowed to Mahiro as she spoke.
"Well.."
"Can you help me here?"
Asia hesitated for a while before speaking again.
"Okay, Let's pack your things first!"
Mahiro nodded, then squatted down, picked up the fallen suitcase, and put the scattered clothes back inside.
Asia blushed because there was some private clothing among her belongings.
However, seeing him kneel to help her organize her clothes, Asia's heart swelled with emotion.
A person who didn't mind her possessions and helped her pack must be good.
Mahiro didn't realize that his simple gesture had completely changed Asia's impression of him.
"I'll take that."
Asia reached out to take the suitcase after Mahiro finished packing.
"Let me carry it," Mahiro insisted on carrying it.
"Thank you!"
Asia blushed, lowered her head, and whispered her gratitude, feeling increasingly touched.
Looking at Asia's shy and cute appearance, Mahiro couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Only an innocent girl like Asia would believe his nonsense.
"By the way, you mentioned there was one more thing. What is it?" Mahiro asked.
"Well..." Asia was brought back from her shy state by Mahiro's question.
She let out a soft cry and said apologetically, "It's actually like this."
"I came to Kuoh Town to seek help from a friend here."
"Now that you plan to take me in, I need to explain it to them," Asia explained without going into detail.
"I'll go with you," Mahiro offered.
"No... don't trouble yourself. It's just a small matter. I can handle it myself."
Asia quickly waved her hand and declined.
Mahiro gave Asia a meaningful look.
He naturally understood what kind of situation Asia referred to when she said 'seek help from a friend.'
"Can't I know?"
Mahiro asked.
"No," Asia hurriedly denied and said with some hesitation.
"It's just..."
Asia's face showed a troubled expression.
In her eyes, Mahiro was just an ordinary person, while the people she would meet next were Fallen Angels and a stray exorcist.
She didn't want to involve Mahiro.
"Alright, let's go to my house first."
"I'll show you the way, and after you put your luggage there, you can explain it to your friends."
Mahiro didn't push further.
Of course, he had his own plan.
"Okay, thank you for understanding," Asia said gratefully.
Mahiro walked in front with the suitcase, while Asia followed him like a dutiful wife, with a mix of restraint and ease in her expression.
Occasionally, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
Even Asia found it strange.
There was no longer a sense of reluctance but rather a sense of anticipation for the next chapter of her life.
It's just that Asia was currently in a period of confusion and hardship.
If someone were willing to extend a helping hand to her, she would grasp it without hesitation.
Coming to Kuoh Town to seek out Fallen Angels is also Asia's last resort.
If there was a better option, she would never choose to join a faction that contradicted her beliefs.
Now, Mahiro had reached out to her.
Even if it seemed unreasonable, it allowed her to see a glimmer of hope.
Compared to the Fallen Angels, Asia was more willing to believe in Mahiro.
