Chapter 240 If
That night, In the middle of the garden, the couple shared their longest kiss ever. And after their kiss, they both felt that the intense and passionate kiss they shared obliterated the pain in their hearts, as though it was a powerful pain killer. And by the time they both gazed at each other’s eyes again, the girl smiled at him ever so brightly that every pain left in his heart slowly melted at the same time shutting down his brain to stop thinking about anything unpleasant. He just felt as though, her gazes were telling him to forget about everything and just look at her eyes.
"It’s getting cold now, let’s go inside." Davi then said and dragged Sei towards the house. Their hand mingled, pressing each others tightly. Davi held his hand like she was telling him that she will never let go until both reached the lounge. Davi then turned towards him and looked him in the eyes again.
That moment, Davi actually started thinking hard. She didn’t just spend the entire day simply waiting for Sei without doing anything. Truth was that she already started planning. She studied the new list that Hinari made for her and even though she was blazing red just by thinking about doing them, she already decided for herself. What happened just now also ignited a fire in her heart, the pain they both felt made her realize that it’s time for her to make a move and make him hers completely.
"You stayed inside your study room the whole day so you didn’t eat yet, right?" she asked and when Sei nodded hesitantly a sad and worried expression flashed across her face.
Sei immediately noticed her saddened face and he knew that she’s always telling him not to skip meal, so Sei immediately spoke.
"But I eat fruits while working." He said and as expected, the worry in her eyes faded.
"That’s great then. But you still need to eat a proper meal so i’ll cook for you this time." Davi said and she dragged him towards the kitchen to prepare his food. She made him sat like a king to wait for the food she Wil serve later while the two butlers gossiping a while ago walked closer to Davi to help her.
"Young miss, why don’t you let the maids do the cooking?" Butller Gou said and Davi just smiled as she put an apron. She walked towards the sink as she talked.
"It’s fine, it’s fine. I want to cook---" Davi suddenly clamped her mouth. It was because she was about to wash her hands when she saw blood in it. Her eyes widened and she immediately walked towards Sei. She grabbed Sei’s hand without any word and the moment she saw the wounds in his knuckles, Davi’s eyes suddenly welled.
"What happened to your hands? Why didn’t you tell me you’re wounded?!" She exclaimed. Her voice was filled with worry, causing Sei to went immediately flustered.
"I... this is nothing." He said but Davi shook her head multiple times.
"No! This is definitely not nothing!" she suddenly yelled. She looked as though she’s angry and yet her eyes were welling as though she was about to cry. Looking at her expression, the flustered Sei stood noisily to face her like a startled little kid who just received a good scolding from his mom.
"I’m sorry."
Reflexively, Sei could only apologize. Well, he was completely thrown off, he didn’t know what to do or say because this is the first time his dear wife ever yelled at him like this.
Davi bit her lip the moment she saw his reaction. She was so upset and she was angry because she knew that she’s been squeezing his hands so hard for a long while and yet, the man didn’t even reacted nor told her he’s wounded.
That same moment, the old men were looking at each other with mischievous gazes as they watched the current situation. Watching the scene between a youbg angry wife and a young sorry husband was kind of refreshing that reminds them the beauty of a young pure love.
"My, my, young miss. You can take your husband away and treat his wounds. We will handle the foods here." The old gramps then said and Davi finally breathed deep. She nodded at the old man and she immediately held Sei’s wrist and dragged him fast towards the living room and then towards the stairs.
The instant they entered their room, Davi made the man sat on the couch near the large window before she went and took the first aid kit without saying a word.
Afterwards, she then sat beside him and looked at him. She saw his anxious expression and he looks exactly like a little boy who just received a good scolding that the only thing missing was for him to pout his lips. Of course, with a single glance to this expression of his, his chibi version is already popping in Davi’s head endlessly, obliterating her frustration in no time.
However, Davi forced herself to act upset a little bit longer. She wanted him to understand that him not saying anything upsets her and that she hates it when Sei was neglecting himself like this.
"Give me your hand." Davi then said. Her voice was still upset so Sei could only obediently do as she says.
Davi then started cleaning the wound. Carefully and gently.
"Tell me if it’s hurt." She uttered without looking at him when the man replied.
"It’s not hurt." He said so Davi purposefully pressed his wound a little, expecting him to say ’ouch’ but he made no sound. She looked at his face but no trace of pain was carved in it. Davi could only blink and she pressed his wound again but then still, he didn’t even flinch.
"It’s not really painful?" She asked with wide eyes when Sei just shook his head innocently.
"Maybe, I’m just used to having wounds." He said and Davi bit her lower lip. She began to realize that for a person who grew in such place and circumstances, he might have been wounded countless times that small wounds like this were now just a mosquito bite for him.
Thinking about it, Davi could only focus herself in treating his fingers. And even though he doesn’t say that it hurts, she still gently blows on them as she put the ointments.
Sei on the other was feeling emotional. He was startled when she suddenly yelled at him. He didn’t get why she’s angry but now that she watches her carefully and gently treating his wound, looking as though she was the one wounded, Sei felt his heart being wrapped with cotton candies. Her every warm blows on his fingers were getting on his nerves, making his heart beats abnormally.
Time passed and Davi was now carefully putting Band-Aids in his fingers when Sei spoke.
"I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to upset you." He said with an apologetic voice but instead of forgiving him, Davi suddenly glanced at him coldly.
The cold gaze was like an ice spell that froze Sei to the extreme. Well, this too, was the first time ever that his wife threw this kind of gaze towards him. Sei felt like his body is cracking, and he didn’t expect that one day, his wife will look at him like this. For some reason, that single cold glance made Sei felt as though his apocalypse is coming near and he found it extremely alarming. Not knowing that his wife was just throwing tantrums and was teasing him.
"I’m very sorry. This will not happen again." He suddenly uttered. He looked alarmed and Davi was about to feel like bursting out but she held herself well. She glanced at him without saying anything as she continued wrapping his fingers.
Of course, her silence was a torture to Sei. His wife usually forgives him in an instant, smiles at him or ruffled his hair after he said sorry, but this time, it seems like his ’sorry’ isn’t working anymore and he didn’t know what to do.
Thus the next moment, just after Davi finally finished her task, Sei once again spoke.
"What should I do for you to forgive me?" he asked. His voice was serious and his eyes were begging her. However, Davi didn’t mindlessly fall to his cuteness attack anymore.
She then looked at him with serious gaze as she replied.
"I will forgive you if you sleep with me tonight."
