Aiko shook his head."You don't owe me anything.." he said.He watched her, "anything for the mistress.." he repeated.

"That's very honorable of you, aiko. Just do me one favor, okay?" She asked him, a serious look in her eyes.

"Yes?" He asked waiting to hear the request.

(I've finished Aiko past if you want to read it )

"Never put my life before yours in importance." She said. "By that I mean don't sacrifice yourself for me."

"But- mistress-'" he started.Then looked down..was it bright to try and question the mistress's request..?..

"Yes? What is it?" She asked him. It was quite obvious in her opinion that he had something on his mind.

"I want to keep the mistress safe" he said, still looking down.Even if it mesnt him getting a little hurt.

Grace walked closer to him and looked into his eyes. "Are you sure? I have plenty of people who want to kill me. Are you willing to protect me aiko?"

He looked into her eyes, and then looked down.Thoughtful.He looked at her, then backed up a little, and bowed a little."At your service, mistress" he said.

"alright. Just don't die on me, okay?" She asked him.

He didn't like the thought of dying..but he wanted to protect the mistress if he had to.You roll the dice, you pay the price I suppose.Aiko looked up at her, still bowed slightly, "I'll try" he said.

Grace hugged him again. "Thank you aiko."

He smiled a weak smile.Why would anybody want to kill the mistress? She was so kind..It wasnt like she was evil and demanded world domination or anything...

Grace picked up a book she had dropped when she fell and sat down on the only couch in the library and began to read.

Aiko finally stood up, somewhat straight, for the most part.He returned to the shelf he had been looking at the books that rested upon its shelves.Skimming over them.

Grace looked up from her reading and looked at him. "Anything in particular you're looking for, aiko?"

"Not really.." he answered."I'm not to picky with the books I read" he said.So he liked variety, which he had right before him.He was just looking for one, that would catch his eye.

Grace shrugged in acceptance. "Alright. If you think of anything in particular you want to read I can help you find it."

"Okay" he said to conclude he had been listening, and heard what she said.He looked over each title, and after maybe two minutes, he finally found a book to read that looked interesting.

"Oh, you found something. Come over here and sit with me when you're ready." She said, not even looking up from what she was reading.
