Chapter 80: Flame Festival I

[BONUS CHAPTER]

Monday, October 26th

This was the first day of the Autumn week throughout the whole Sakura Abode Country.

Each city of the country celebrated its traditions, but all of them had the same celebration.

The Autumn painted the country with its sakura trees.

Elffire City was not different, the whole city was excited about the Flame Festival.

Today was the first day of the Festival.

The citizens left their homes to go to work dressed in red clothes to celebrate the festival.

The mood was festive as the city was painted by flames with the sakura trees, the weather was fresh and windy with the sun coming out to make the day even more festive.

Decorations could be seen in all of the city.

Houses, grocery stores, malls, and many others were in the mood for the Flame Festival.

Theo arrived in his office on that day greeting his employees.

During the whole week, all his employees would have the workload halved.

So, that they could enjoy the festival.

Theo had to wake up extra early today because Aurora had to go to her school earlier, and because he had to cook for her.

He had to wake up early too.

This was the last day before her festival and Aurora's class was running against the time to finish their preparations.

Theo worked on his house project until 3 pm.

Afterward, he went home to get ready to go out.

Today he would go to the Flame Festival with the girls.

pᴀɴdᴀ He was dressed in his red pants and red traditional jacket with sakura images on it.

He looked stunning and handsome.

His silver hair and silver eyes contrasted with the red traditional clothes and made him even more handsome.

Theo exited his apartment and went towards the festival alone.

Aurora was getting ready at her friend's house, and she was going to the festival from there.

The closer he got to the festival, the more cars there were in the streets.

All the accesses to the venue had heavy traffic.

Theo saw that it would take ages for him to get his car parked at the venue.

So, he decided to park the car a little far from the festival and walk to the venue.

Theo walked towards the festival leisurely.

He saw tons of people heading to the festival, it was expected that at least one million people would go to the opening of the festival today.

He saw families, couples, groups of friends all dressed in traditional red clothes.

Theo arrived at the venue and looked at the place.

He was frozen for a second as he looked at the scenery.

Flame Red Trees could be seen all around, lights were placed on the trees to make the red even more evident. And the result was that it made the trees look magical.

Red decorations were seen all around on the stalls. A huge variety of food was being sold out for the hundreds of stalls in the venue.

There was a huge stage at the back where artists were performing.

And a huge crowd was enjoying all the attractions available.

Theo waited for the girls at the place they combined.

Then suddenly he received a call from Ayia.

"Where are you?" Ayia said with a shout on the phone.

"I am by the south entrance! Next to the game section!" Theo shouted back as he tried to listen to the phone with the noise that was coming from the festival.

"We will be there in 5 minutes!" Ayia shouted back and hang up the phone.

Theo did not understand what she said, but he assumed that they were arriving.

After five minutes, five unbelievable pretty girls arrived next to Theo.

Ayia, June, Sayuri, Sam, and Shizuka were dressed in traditional red dresses.

And they were so beautiful!

Where ever they went, people would look back at them.

Theo looked at them and he was a little dazed for a while.

"Girls! Here!" Theo waved at them when he came back to himself.

The girls saw him and walked to him.

"You all look absolutely stunning!" Theo smiled at the girls.

They all blushed a little, Theo was extra handsome today and they became a little bashful with his compliment.

"You are not bad yourself." Sayuri said after a while with a smile.

She was the oldest one of them, she would not stay bashful for so long.

"Where's Aurora and the girls?" Ayia asked as she looked around.

"She texted saying that they were arriving shortly!" Theo said.

They talked about their clothes as they waited for the Aurora.

After 5 minutes, five young girls arrived at the Flame Festival.

If the Ayia and four others passed a mature and unapproachable feeling.

These five girls passed a youthful and innocent feeling.

Not that Ayia and the others were not youthful, but they looked like adults. Aurora and the girls looked like teenagers.

Theo saw Aurora and called her.

"Aurora! Here!" He shouted.

Aurora and the girls saw Theo and walked to him.

Theo looked at Aurora and smiled.

"You look amazing, sis" Theo said dotingly.

"Thank you, big brother!" Ayia said with an excited smile.

She was indeed stunning, just like Theo, her silver hair contrasted with her red dress and made her look extra pretty.

"You too girls" Ayia complimented the rest of the girls.

"Yeah, I agree." Theo looked at the rest of the girls.

They all talked about each other's clothes with excitement for a while.

"Where are we going first?" Sam asked after a while.

"I want to eat something!" Ayia exclaimed.

"Yeah, I am hungry too!" Aurora said with a grump.

All of them did not eat well at lunch because they were getting ready for the festival.

If someone does not live together with women, it's important to say that most women take ages to get ready.

So, it was understandable that they were hungry.

"How about we go to the food stall? We can order all types of food and eat by the trees there!" Theo pointed in the direction of an open place surrounded by sakura trees where several benches were placed.

People could be seen eating on the benches and enjoying the scenery.

They all agreed with the idea, it sounded great.

They could eat and enjoy the festival.

"How about we buy everything and share it with each other?" Shizuka said.

"Yeah, I agree." Theo replied.

"So, you all buy anything you want, and let's meet at the benches, okay?" Theo asked the girls.

They all nodded with avid faces.

They all laughed and went to buy the food.

After 10 minutes, they all came while carrying all types of food.

Theo brought a traditional Yamato food, Takoyaki.

Ayia arrived with a bunch of Yakiimo (a type of sweet potatoes baked with wood fire) and Yaki Tomorokoshi (char-grilled whole cobs of corn brushed with a glaze of soy sauce, mirin, and butter).

They were super hot, it seemed that they were just out of the oven.

Shizuka brought so sweet cakes.

Aurora and her friends brought a bunch of open sfiha (an Arabian food) of all types of flavors.

Sayuri, Sam, and June got together and brought crepes and green tea.

When they distributed all these on the table, they were a little overwhelmed.

"Are we going to be able to finish?" June asked.

"Of course, let's dive in!" Ayia exclaimed with her characteristic enthusiasm.

They all were lively again and started eating.

And it was delicious!

They laughed and ate as the sun was setting.

"Wow…" Ayia suddenly exclaimed loudly after they were seated eating.

They all looked at what she was looking for and they were awestruck when they saw it too.

The sunset made the Flame Sakura Trees be lit on fire!

It seemed that the whole festival was involved by the firelight.

It was magical.

After a while, they started talking excitedly about the scenery.

"Let's take pictures!" Ayia exclaimed loudly.

"Yes!" The girls replied.

The girls wanted to take pictures to remember this day later.

They took a bunch of pictures of the sunset, of each other, of them with the sunset.

It was so many that Theo did not know how many cellphones he posed for a photo anymore.
