I'm not a Pokémon succubus.

"Ah."

Aisha nodded.

"So......"

"So."

When he was hesitant and didn't know what to do next, a familiar voice with a smile came from behind him.

"How about you spend the rest of your time with me?"

"Eh?"

Ai Xia was stunned.

This familiar voice made his brain shut down a little.

Then, he turned around abruptly and looked at the person behind him.

gold......

The familiar golden color came into view.

The golden hair, as brilliant as golden sand, spreads out like a palm-leaf fan, delicate and gorgeous.

An elegant dress outlines her slender figure, and her delicate face has an intellectual smile.

The blue eyes are brighter than any star in the night sky, sparkling with a dazzling brilliance.

The dreamlike girl stood under the moon, the cold moonlight making her long hair sparkle brighter than the stars.

She smiled at Aisha.

"Long time no see, Coach Ai."

"Cattleya!"

Aisha called out her name, her tone full of excitement.

"..."

Cattleya's expression changed slightly.

The next moment, before Aisha could say anything, a fragrant breeze blew over, and Cattleya suddenly threw herself into Aisha's arms.

"Cattleya?"

"really miss you......"

Aisha was stunned, but Cattleya's soft whisper silenced him.

With a slight sob, the girl opened her slender arms and wrapped them around the boy's waist.

The scattered spiritual power became peaceful at this moment.

Cattleya buried her face in Aisha's chest and cried softly like a wounded kitten.

"Really, it's been a long time since we last met..."

"Ah."

Aixia lowered her head and raised her hand to touch her hair that was as bright as golden sand.

Aisha smiled as she used her slender fingers to push away the girl's messy hair that had been messed up when she pounced on her.

"It's been hard work during this period."

The girl's shoulders trembled.

The simple words touched the softest part of her heart.

Tears flowed uncontrollably, wetting Aisha's clothes on her chest.

People are always like this...

When you become strong, you will not shed tears no matter how much suffering or how much injustice you suffer.

But a word of concern from someone she cares about can make her cry.

This is what Cattleya is like at this moment...

The long separation, the hard work during these days, and the efforts to control my emotions and mental strength.

All of this was because of the agreement I made with Aisha when we parted in Miare City in the Kalos region.

"Separation is for a better reunion..."

The boy’s words at that time still seem to linger in my ears.

And how did Cattleya respond to him at that time?

Oh.

The girl said that she would not let the person down the next time they met.

So, after returning to the United States, she restrained all her former willfulness and stubbornness.

Faced with the shortage of manpower in the Unova region, she stepped forward, shouldered the responsibilities of the Four Heavenly Kings, and learned to handle official business.

Even though she had never done this kind of work before, Cattleya still humbly asked Wanlong for advice and learned step by step.

Even when she was extremely sleepy, she never complained of being tired.

The expanding mental power was out of control for a while during this period.

but......

Whenever Cattleya thought of Aisha's smile at the sunset in front of the art gallery that day, her agitated nerves would calm down.

OK......

It will definitely work...

Comforting herself in this way, Cattleya endured the tears and tiredness and persevered through everything, and she did a great job!

She started learning from scratch, and in the end, her decisiveness in handling official business won praise from Wanlong and Zhulan.

Her sleepiness had been alleviated to a considerable extent, and Cattleya was now able to entertain guests for a short period of time.

Her temper improved a lot without her noticing.

she......

I have been working really hard to keep that promise.

And today, she reunited with the person she had been waiting for.

All the efforts before this were worthwhile because of Aisha's words.

Coach Ai, he knows his own efforts.

I didn't let him down.

That's really, really great...

"awesome."

Aisha embraced her gently.

Aisha was generous in giving praise to this hard-working girl.

Cattleya wordlessly tightened her arms and hugged Aisha even tighter.

"Then I'd better not be a light bulb here, Loto..."

Rotom, who looked exactly like a lightbulb, tactfully walked away with the Incendiary Bug in his arms.

It really doesn't want to disturb such a touching reunion.

"Ai, Ai Coach."

Cattleya called out to Aisha in a low voice.

"Ok?"

"Do you know that I'm trying hard?"

"of course."

Aisha smiled.

"I know all about your efforts... So, did you enjoy your meal?"

"Woo!"

This simple sentence once again broke Cattleya's defense.

The simplest and most straightforward concern was something only he and Zhulan would say to Cattleya.

"Eat, eat, I've been eating well, three meals a day, uh... Anyway, I've been eating well, Coach Ai, don't worry!"

The girl was speechless for a moment, but her meaning was clear.

"Okay, okay~"

Aisha was amused by her reaction.

After not seeing her for a long time, Cattleya has become much cuter.

"It's worth it that I asked Zhulan to remind you to eat every day."

Aisha sighed.

Cattleya was stunned.

She thought of Zhulan, who had suddenly begun to strictly supervise her life during this period.

It turns out that this was all Aisha's instruction...

When I thought that Coach Ai was thousands of miles away from me, his concern had actually already surrounded me.

"call."

The corners of her mouth lifted up involuntarily, and Cattleya felt warm in her heart.

but......

"Why mention her?"

For some reason, the kitten in my arms suddenly became a little angry.

Obviously, although she was touched, the girl did not want to hear Aisha mention another woman's name at this time.

"Humph~"

She raised her pink fist and gently punched Aisha's chest.

Then, Cattleya lifted her skirt and took two steps back.

At this time, Aixia saw that the child's eyes were slightly red, and he must have really shed tears just now.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about Zhulan anymore."

Aisha's smile remained.

Among his friends, Cattleya was one of the few people he always cared about.

Although this cute girl is a powerful trainer of the Four Heavenly Masters of Unova, she is actually an immature child in private.

The image of a young lady is just a mask to cover up her wounds. In reality, she is fragile and longs for care, which makes her very pitiable.

Even if we only met once and spent only a few days together.

However, Aisha had already regarded Cattleya as her best friend.

Do not......

Out of pity for the girl, Aisha gives her more care than a close friend.

"hehe."

Aisha smiled helplessly.

I always feel...

Is it like raising a daughter?

"By the way, why did you come here suddenly?"
