6:02 AM // 2 August // 818 A.S.
Hallway 6 // Northwing Section // Entrance Quarters // Sector-1

The Estate caretaker of Rheinland-origin, Helga Faustbeign, who was nearing her mid-60's, was already beginning her daily, early morning rounds around the Entrance Quarters, seeing if there was anything needed to be repaired or taken care of. Several maintenance robots followed suite behind her, all crafted and fashioned first-hand by Leonardo a while back to aid her in such laboring work.

Helga was currently wearing a long, mocha-toned, kilt-patterned dress with a white apron fastened waist-down on her hips and a pair of thick, leather boots below the gown; her long, blonde hair was tied back in a messy ponytail, and she wore her usual spectacles on her faint-yellow eyes.

She and her robot servants were already finishing with their inspection of Hallway 6, which was a long and wide, open walkway that led from the Main Hall (more accurately, the living room) to the E.Q. Library on the eastern corner of the Northwing Section, when suddenly one of the robots prompted Helga that there was someone else nearby.

It was [color=#33FFFF]Leonardo Tigre, who was wearing his usual black cargo pants and boots, but only had a black tank-top on his chest and that both his clothing and hair were unkempt, as if he just newly woke up from bed.

'Helga... Can... Can I talk with you for a second?' His monotonous face shows small signs of worry.

'Hmmm? Vhat is it, Mein-herr? You look confused of sort. Is zhere somezhing bothering you?'

'It's about something that happened during the Wedding we attended last night---'

'Ah! You enjoyed yourself zhere? Vhat was it like?' Helga tries to put on a joyful mood for him.

'There were... some things that didn't turn out so well, but overall it was a grand event... it's just... I feel strange all of a sudden.'

'Strange? How so?'

He turns away before continuing, 'Well, all I did was accompany Mila to dance in this slow song number... But then she... she... smiled at me.' His face turned red a bit.

'But doesn't she always smile? Vhat's so surprising about zhat?'

'It wasn't just another smile of hers, Helga... This one was different. When I saw that smile... it's as if time had suddenly stopped, and a strange warmth came over me like the spring afternoon sun shining its sun rays all over my skin. And she...' He paused for a moment and sighed to himself as he began to crack an eerily-calm smile, 'She looked so... so beautiful when she smiled. It was amazing to find her so happy and playful it made me feel so... serene... almost at peace, as if the heavens parted open and began singing songs of praise.'

Helga raised an eyebrow at him with a bit of wonderment, '... Oh? Amazingly-beautiful you say? Zhat's a lot of deep words you're using, Leonardo!'

'Y... yeah... I know she's kinda cute, but... I've never had such a strong affection for her before, and even now that strange feeling still lingers. She looks slightly more beautiful than ever before, and now it's manifested itself into this eerie sense of nervousness and awkwardness inside me that whenever I see her my gut starts to churn. It... it feels so incredibly good that it's unhealthily-sickening---'

'Hold zhat zhought, Mein-herr...' She glances over Leonardo's shoulder to a far-off bend in the corridor that one of the robot servants are pointing towards, 'Mila! You shouldn't eavesdrop, young lady. Get out of there and come where we can see you.'

Slowly, Milarosa Tigre emerges from her hiding spot with a flustered, red face. It appeared she didn't bother to change into her normal clothes and was wearing her pink short-skirted pajamas with cotton-soled slippers on her feet.

She soon starts twiddling her fingers together and looks meekly at Leonardo as she said very weakly, '... L... Leonardo... I... I never knew... I always thought I was... the only one who...'

He glanced a shocked expression as he said, 'Y... You too, Mila?' He raises his voice and his eyes widen in surprise as he continued, 'But... what does that---'

'It means you've finally fallen in love wizh each other, Mein-herr.' A long grin appears on Helga's wrinkled face, 'I'm surprised it took you both zhis long, but considering zhe differences you have and the fact both of you went through some tough times in your lives, I guess it's understandable zhat you'd never know zhese feelings until you took zhe time to let zhem develop.'

'F... Fallen...?'

'... In love...?'

'You still don't get it, Mila? And haven't you heard the stories from you mozher as well, Leonardo? Both of you are starting to zhink deeply of one anozher, yet at zhis stage it's too early to conclude whether it's the real zhing, or it could simply be infatuation at work; neverzheless, the emotions are zhere.'

'Sh... should we be worried?'

'Heavens, no! Zhese are very natural feelings to experience, and zhey result only from your lack of ability in coping up and handling vizh zhese new-found emotions.'

'Wh-wh-what should we do?'

Helga chuckles humorously to herself from the remark, and replied in a joking manner, 'Mein-herr, ZHAT is somezhing only both of you know how to answer... But at the very least I can give you some advice as to the best approach.

'Most people under zhese types of situations 'jump-the-gun' and immediately proceed to romance and commitment, but not many are ready for such sudden sacrifices and changes in zheir lives, especially if zhey are planning to make the relationship last.

'Zhere doesn't have to be anyzhing too complicated to be done for your feelings at zhis stage. Take it slowly, enjoy the emotions for what zhey're worth, and go on wizh your lives as you've always done. Love is an adventure zhat shouldn't be rushed, nor taken in suddenly and in large chunks.

'I'll warn you, however, zhat love is full of obstacles abound, and many relationships are doomed to fail... Some eventually die out, in fact...' Her tone then becomes kinder and gentler, '... But, if done right, love is actually one of zhe most fulfilling and never-ending journeys people can ever experience, and many are surprised at just how memorable and life-changing such endeavors turn out to be: I can tell you with great pride that some of the best memories I've ever had in life came from my relationship wizh Vhand Ohmler... Oh, he was a good man, and may the Reich bless his noble heart wherever he is.'

She sighs satisfied to herself before continuing, 'Well! I'm sure you both have much to talk about and straighten up. Also, Mila, you keep forgetting zhat you aren't blood-related vith your 'brother'!'

Mila looks away wryly, 'M... meep, that's true, but---'

'I'll go and see if zhe Heatshields need any groceries to take care of for the week, Mein-herr.' Helga starts to calmly, but quickly walk to the Westwing Section of the estate.

As soon as the two were completely alone, Mila started to slowly and shyly move closer to Leonardo, '... S... soooo... wh-what now, Leonardo?' She asked painfully.

'... W... well, uh... uhm...' He takes out his PDA and scans for the current time, 'I... I guess we... we should go eat breakfast...?'

'Y... yeah. I'm... getting h-hungry, actually, heheheh.'

A sudden pause descends between them for a moment, and both Leonardo and Mila start wandering their eyes around the place to find something appropriate to say. Eventually, their gazes once again met, a smile emerges from both their lips, and they soon start to laugh very explosively at the realization of just how silly they were becoming until both of them were beginning to bend down to the floor from the pain on their abdomens, 'Meep! Th-this really does feel very weird, heheheh!' Mila crouches low and giggles as she holds her stomach with her hands.

'Y-you're right, Mila. It's a good thing there's nobody else around to see just how strange and unnatural we're acting from basically trying to strike a simple conversation, hahahah.' Leonardo places both his palms on his knees and starts to almost wheeze for breath.

After several more seconds of intense laughter they get their composure and sigh calmly to relieve themselves of the pain. All of a sudden Mila decides to lean her whole weight on Leonardo's chest as she softly whispers, 'Meep... That was a good laugh, brother. You always did act all formal, serious and emotionless around people, and seeing you smile and enjoy yourself like that just for the sake of it always makes me feel even happier every time you do so, meep...'

He places a reluctant arm over her shoulders as he replied in a kind tone, '... Yeah... I did say you're the one who taught me how to laugh again, didn't I? I've got to thank you for that someday, Mila...'

A low grumble erupts from their stomachs, which prompts the two to laugh sheepishly at each other, 'Heh... I guess we really are hungry after all. Let's go to the Main Hall and grab some grub, eh?'

'Meep! Yup yup!'

As they began to walk towards the dining hall of the Estate Leonardo places his hand on Mila's head and begins petting her straight hair softly, which makes her purr to herself elatedly; although not noticeable on first glance, at the same time she was also blushing slightly in the cheeks.
