Chapter 236 Acting strange
Contrary to what usually happens in romantic movies where the couple will both chase each other’s happily until both of them slip and fell on the ground while the girl will end up falling on top of the man, Davi and Sei just stood there motionless.
Sei was stunned on what she did. However, what made him froze in place was the view that appeared before his eyes. Her drenched thin shirt shrunken and it traced her upper body, revealing the shape of her thin waist and her beautiful chest.
Davi on the other hand immediately turned off the hose and her eyes widened with great worry the moment she remembered that Sei’s skin is sensitive to cold. She gasped and hastily walked closer to him as soon as she saw the lower part of his face turned red. Not knowing that the man was actually just blushing intensely.
"A-are you okay? I’m sorry, I forgot your skin is... let’s go, you need to get change immediately." She said worriedly and Sei snapped.
"No, it’s alright. The water isn’t that cold. My skin will only react if the water is colder than---"
"But your face is already red. Look, even your ears!" she exclaimed, cutting his statement and Sei fell speechless. Well, he knew that his reddened face has nothing to do with his sensitivity cold.
"Come, let’s go." She said and she began dragging him. However, they’re about to reach the entrance when suddenly, Sei pulled her, made her turned towards him and buried her face on his chest.
Davi gasped on what he did but worry enveloped her because she thought that he might be feeling cold now. She then raised her hand and embrace him back to warm him.
That moment, Sei didn’t expect her to hug him tightly in that situation. The reason why he pulled her was because he saw Kir standing near the entrance and he will never let anyone else to see his dear wife in that state.
Sei’s face burned and he felt like smoke was about to come out of his head. It was because he could feel her soft chest rubbing against his body and her warn hands were even caressing his back gently.
"Are you alright? Shall I go ask for help?" She then asked worriedly and Sei held her shoulder to make distance from her, however, as soon he pulled away from her, his eyes fell into her chest and he hugged her back again.
Davi was confused with his actions. And she was about to ask him when the man finally talked.
"I’m fine." He said as he gestured Kir to bring them a towel.
"Are you feeling cold? I think I should go first and get you a towel." She uttered when suddenly, Sei spoke firmly.
"No. You can’t. Stay with me." He said and his voice suddenly sounded like he was stating an order.
That moment, Davi went even more confused with his unpredictable reactions.
She then suddenly pulled away from him to look at him when all of a sudden, instead of meeting her gaze, the man averted his gaze away. His reaction made Davi went speechless and she didn’t know why he obviously looked like he didn’t want to look at her.
Davi was about to ask him, when suddenly, she heard footsteps getting closer to them. She was about to turn when Sei suddenly wrapped his arm around her back to prevent her from turning.
And the next second, Sei wrapped a towel around her before she let her go. Davi then stared at him as he draped the towel around himself. She was waiting for him to look at her but the man just held her hand as he uttered the words, "let’s go".
For some reason, Davi was starting to feel that Sei was really acting strange. Thus, the next second, she halted to make Sei turned towards her. He did turn and looked at her but he kept averting his gaze as though he can’t stand gazing at her eyes for more than three seconds.
"Let’s go, we need to get change." Sei said and Davi could only follow him quietly while her mind was filled with thoughts.
As soon as they reached the front of their room’s door, Sei let go of her hand and he was about to walk away when Davi tugged the sleeve of his shirt.
"Sei... I felt like you’re avoiding my gazes, am I just imagining things?" she asked and her sad troubled voice made Sei’s eyes widened as he immediately turned towards her.
That moment, their eyes met and Sei realized that she was being troubled with his actions. Seeing the worry and confusion in her eyes made him felt responsible and guilty. Thus, the next moment, Sei kissed her forehead as he spoke.
"Let’s go get change first. I have something to tell you." He said and for some reason, Davi suddenly felt quite nervous.
