Chapter 676 - Adorable Friendship
Well, this is the case for the adorable Violet and the cute Aura, these two girls had grown very close. Ever since Aurora died that Violet and Ditoyle fell into sorrow, but right after that, the little Aura was born, requiring guidance and help, Veronica and Ervas raised her as their daughter, but never expected that the adorable Violet would take her as her little sister after meeting her for the first time.
At first, both girls were timid with one another. Violet had been coping with the death of her mother recently, but it was taking her a long time to recover, the death of a loved one is something incredibly painful. A scar that is always left inside of your heart, even when you recover from it, the scar truly never disappears.
Aura back then was just being introduced to everything, and the other Gods scared her because they were so overly friendly and big, and she was too timid to interact with them. She was after all a new being all together now.
And Violet required someone else than just Ditoyle now, someone new that could bring a new sparkle to her life. The two met one day when Veronica and Ervas had the idea of letting Aura interact with the kids. Violet who had distanced herself from the other kids ended interacting with the timid Aura. And she grew a sense of big sister over the young Light Goddess.
At first their interactions were a bit awkward, but the two quickly opened up to the other as the days went by. However, when Aurora was finally revived out of mere chance, Violet had been giving a lot of attention to her mother and Aura had been left aside…
The little Aura played around in her room with her little toys, as she practiced her magic with them, covering them in light and letting them float around, she manipulated her light and created a small Familiar shaped as a humanoid, lightly, which she pretended to be Violet.
But it wasn\'t really the same…
"Violet-chan…" she sighed. Remembering the friend she played with almost 24/7, who was now busy with her revived mother.
However, she was too humble and nice to even feel left out, and simply thought that Violet was now being happy, it was clear that she was, after all, it was the mother she had lost and who had made her grow so sad in the first place.
Aura smiled lightly despite knowing that her friend might had forgotten about her.
"I am glad for her… I hope Violet is having tons of fun with her mommy…" she thought. As she played around with Light Spirits which also sometimes came to visit her, dancing around her as she felt accompanied by the mystic creatures of nature.
However… it was clearly not the same.
"Sigh… But its not the same… Violet-chan… I miss her." She sighed, sitting over the floor.
Ervas and Veronica who were always watching over Aura to monitor her mental growth noticed this, but didn\'t really wanted the little Violet to stop being with Aurora either, they felt conflicted.
After all, that was another family, they couldn\'t force them to do what they wanted.
They would be accompanying Aura right now, but the girl had been acting more independent lately, and told them that she wanted to spend time alone.
"Maybe we shouldn\'t watch over her, I feel like we are just spying over her privacy…" sighed Veronica.
"You might be right… Let\'s stop for now…" sighed Ervas.
"Hmm… Poor Aura-chan…" muttered Veronica.
"Well, she\'s a strong girl. I am sure she\'ll get through this in its due time." Said Ervas.
"I-I really hope so…" sighed Veronica.
"If not, I guess we can intervene." Said Ervas.
"Yeah… Oh?"
Then, as the two were about to retrieve the small phantom clones watching over Aura, they noticed three figures slowly walking near Aura\'s room.
"Aurora, Violet, and Ditoyle!" said Veronica.
"Are they coming to meet her?" wondered Ervas.
"I don\'t know… Let\'s just watch for now!" said Veronica.
The split souls watched over as Aura sighed sadly.
She jumped over her bed and rubbed her face over the soft cushion.
"Hmm… Maybe a nap will do me good…" she thought, as she closed her eyes and tried to sleep.
However…
Knock, knock.
"Huh? Is it you, uncle and auntie? I-I am fine, you don\'t have to worry!" she said.
"Aura! I-It\'s me!"
Suddenly, the voice of Violet resonated through the room as Aura almost skipped a beat.
"V-Violet-chan?!"
Aura slowly walked towards the door, but didn\'t open it.
"How have you been? Let\'s play!" said Violet.
"B-But… What about your mommy? You have to spend time with her… She revived recently… Y-You shouldn\'t bother with me…" sighed Aura.
Violet gripped her fists as she looked at the floor, Aurora and Ditoyle remained in silence because this was a thing their daughter had to fix.
"But I want to be with you! I-I… I\'ve been enough with mommy… But I like to be with you, Aura! Y-You\'re my best friend! My little sister… S-So please… Open the door and let\'s play together again." Sighed Violet.
Aura looked at the door as little tears began to come out of her shiny starlight eyes.
"V-Violet…"
She timidly opened the door, as Violet jumped over her and hugged her tightly, even kissing her cheek tenderly…
"Uwahhh…!"
"I missed you! S-Sorry for… not coming in two weeks…" sighed Violet.
"Violet-chan… You really mean it?" asked Aura while smiling hopelessly, as tears came out of her eyes.
"Yeah! I-I really mean it!" said Violet.
"Violet…"
The two girls hugged cutely, as Aura kissed Violet\'s cheek.
"Hehe… Let\'s play then!" said Aura.
"Okay… how about we go outside? The day is pretty! Let\'s explore the forest!" said Violet.
"O-Okay!"
The split souls smiled at the scene. Things seemingly resolved themselves alone.
It is not always required for them to intervene. Letting things go as they may is often a better option.
