After one day I decided to ask Mary to date. I've got a way for us to be alone, I think I'll bring her here to the inn.

I have to ask Lily to leave the room in the afternoon because I will bring her here.

I went down the stairs of the inn and Lily was sitting talking to Deby, since there were no clients now, Deby was doing nothing so was talking to Lily

"Lily." (Endl)

I called Lily, but as she was distracted she didn't hear me. After I called again she finally heard me.

I asked Deby to leave us alone because I had something serious to talk to her about.

"Lily, can you go out this afternoon?" (Endl)

"Why?" (Lily)

Lily was a little confused by my question.

Is she an idiot? Of course she should know, but if she doesn't know i don't blame her.

"I want to be alone with Mary to ask her to date, and the best place I thought was inside the bedroom." (Endl)

"So that's it. Of course I leave you alone, in the afternoon I'll go out and walk around town again." (Lily)

"Thank you Lily." (Endl)

"Good luck with the dating request." (Lily)

Lily was still very happy about that, she certainly supported me, and I appreciate that. I haven't seen Mary since our date, I don't know if she's avoiding me or hiding, but I never see her when I walk in the door of her inn.

Could she be hiding in the room with such shame? She's a stubborn girl so it's quite possible.

When evening came I headed toward the inn Mary was staying at. Getting there I couldn't find it.

"Do you know where Mary is?" (Endl)

"That girl? She just leaves the room to eat, she seems to be running away." (Owner of the Inn)

I knew that was it, she's such a shy girl that I would think that was possible. I have to find a way to get her to my inn.

'I don't need this right?'

If the innkeeper lets me in her room, I can talk to her right here and make the request for a dating.

I don't know if the innkeeper will let me in, but since I'm always walking with Mary she must know that I wouldn't do her any harm.

"Could you let me in Mary's room? I think she's hiding from me because she's kissed me and she's so embarrassed she doesn't want to leave the room. But I need to talk to her urgently." (Endl)

I told the owner of the inn everything, if I didn't tell the truth I don't think she would let me into Mary's room.

After some thought the innkeeper accepted my request and gave me a copy of the key.

I climbed the stairs and reached Mary's bedroom door.

- Toc Toc Toc

I knocked on the door but no one answered. I knocked again and called Mary, when I called her I heard a noise inside the room.

'She's really hiding'

I took the key and entered the room, when I entered the room, Mary was hiding under the blankets on the bed. Is she a child? hahaha.

"Mary." (Endl)

"Excuse me." (Mary)

When I called her name the blanket started shaking and she apologized, did she apologize for the kiss or something?

I really wasn't angry, I'm really happy.

"I was happy ... When you kissed me." (Endl)

When I said that, Mary jumped off the blanket and stared at me, but what an easy girl. Did she really think I was mad that she kissed me like that?

"Oh really?" (Mary)

"Clear." (Endl)

Apparently Mary had already cried a lot, when I asked her about it she said she thought it had ruined our relationship, so she was very upset.

"Mary, I have a serious business to talk to you about." (Endl)

Mary shivered a little at my words, but she agreed to talk so I sat on the bed next to her and we started talking.

"Mary, since you kissed me, do you mean we're dating?" (Endl)

"Eh?" (Mary)

Mary froze the moment she said that, so I kept talking, I had to say it all.

"But since I wasn't sure about that, I came here to request dating you in person." (Endl)

When Mary heard this she started to cry, Mary's feelings are very pure.

I realized she was crying so I hugged her and she returned the hug.

'It's time.'

I decided to say that now, since this is the best time.

"So Mary, do you agree to date me?" (Endl)

"Yes ... yes I do." (Mary)

Mary kept hugging me and still crying. When I saw that she wouldn't stop crying I pulled her hug away and kissed her, Mary was surprised but returned the kiss.

When we parted our lips, I smiled at Mary and she returned me with the most beautiful smile in the world.
