It seems to be their nap time. Could you grab something to cover them?

Ahyes.

He brought out a light comforter, and laid the two of them next to each other, using the cushions as pillows. Akio and Natsuki seemed to be linked as they both breathed with the same rhythm. Kiris eyes as he watched the two of them were extremely gentle and warm. They were like that when he stroked his own head as welllooking at him objectively, Touya became a little embarrassed. They werent parent and children, or brothers. He wondered just what sort of relationship Kiri, Natsuki and Akio had with each other.

Do you think its strange? These children. Akio and Natsuki have their reasons. For staying children forever. They may grow up sooner or later though.

why is that?

Because something sad happened to them, and so they wouldnt remember itI put a spell on them.

He smiled mysteriously, as if that was the truth half mixed with a joke. Even though normally he wouldnt believe such a thing, since this was the world of ayakashi, no matter what happened, it wasnt all that unusual. He felt as though Kiri really could use that sort of magic.
