I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband

The moment Davi turned, she gasped on how close their faces were. Sei’s lips brushed on the tip of her nose and it jolted her, causing her to reflexively leaned on the door to make some distance.

That moment, her reaction immediately made Sei felt hesitant. He didn’t expect her to get startled like this, causing him to felt suddenly anxious.

"D-did I scare you?" he asked with a disheartened look and Davi could only blink as she stared at him. Well, Davi admits that she wasn’t used with Sei doing this kind of approach. However, the real reason why was because she experienced being treated like this before multiple times that her body learned to reflexively move on its own every time this kabe-don thing happens. Thankfully, she didn’t forget that the person doing it to her this time was Sei or else, she might already instinctively hit his balls a long while ago, just what she always does with those men.

Ahh... that was close, that was close... what am I going to do if I actually kicked this adorable baby of mine?

While Davi was still in the middle of thinking, Sei’s anxiety was increasing. Davi’s silence and her seemingly troubled look made him felt amazingly downhearted.

"I’m sorry." He suddenly uttered as he lowered his face. Davi was again surprised. Not because of his sudden apology but because of his seemingly super distressed reaction.

That moment, Sei leaned his head on his own arm that was still stretched towards the door.

"Please... tell me if I’m doing things that were displeasing you." He continued with his same disheartened voice without even raising his head. That very moment, Davi suddenly felt something that just twisted her heart. Maybe because this was the first time Sei spoke to her without making eye contact that Davi could tell just how awful he’s been feeling right now.

Looking at him being sad and anxious was indeed painful for her no matter what the reason is. Davi couldn’t bear watching him like this at all. All she wanted was give all her love to him, all she wanted was to guard his heart so that he won’t get hurt again.

Thus, the next second, Davi held his head and leaned it in her shoulder. She wrapped her arm around his head as she caressed his hair gently as ever.

"Sei, would you believe me if I’ll tell you that you never displeased me even once?" She said and Sei immediately raised his head. He gazed at her eyes before he could answer her.

"I’ll always believe anything you’ll say." He replied and when Davi smiled brightly, Sei’s eyes slightly widened.

"Did I misunderstand you again?" he continued and when Davi nodded with a sweet smile, causing Sei to froze.

"I’m sorry if I made you feel bad because of my action. Before I met you, some forceful idiots always tried to corner me that’s why I think my body learned to react like this." She said and as expected, immediate worry and rage flashed across Sei’s eyes.

"But don’t worry, before those people could touch me, I already hit their poor balls. You’re the first who did this to me and didn’t receive a blow from me, you know." She continued as she chuckled and the rage and worry in Sei’s eyes were immediately replaced with proud and sparkling diamonds. However, after a short while, his eyes turned serious.

"I want to destroy them." He suddenly said and Davi could only force a laugh.

"Ahaha. Don’t. Those idiots don’t deserve your attention and time okay? And besides, I believe they already received their very own karma from me. So forget about them now, okay?" She said and after a short silence, Sei finally dropped his invisible sword of death before he nodded obediently.

That moment, Davi just smiled again as she tiptoed and reached his hair.

"Sei, misunderstandings are inevitable and they will always happen in the future, but I want to tell you that whatever you do, you’re never a displeasure to me." She said as her beautiful eyes were overflowing with sincerity. Words and feelings that made Sei fell speechless as he listens to the wild beats of his heart.

After a short silence, while Davi was busy caressing his hair, Sei moved his face closer to her. Davi immediately halted but the moment his lips were about to reach hers, she suddenly turned her face away and...

She sneezed. Long silence followed the sound of Davi’s sneeze before Davi could talk.

"Sorry Sei. Not this time okay? You just recovered from a fever last night. I can’t make you get sick again." She said as she pinched both of his cheek.

"I’ll go and get change first, okay?" she continued not letting him say anymore words before she hastily stepped out of the room.

Meanwhile, Zaki who immediately hid himself the moment the door opened was waiting for Davi’s silhouette to disappear. And when Davi finally entered in their room, Zaki stood and he was about to run away when he heard a chilling voice.

"Zaki." Sei called his name and he froze before he turned like a robot towards the man who finally stepped out of the dragon’s den.

"Ohh, Sei. I heard your wife just sneezed again. Don’t you think you better go ask the butler to get her medicine?" He immediately said and Sei’s intimidating look immediately turned upside down.

"She was drenched from rain for a while now so I think she might even catch a flu. Wait, why don’t try cooking for her this time? She’s always cooking for you so you better return the favor sometimes. And besides, if you do that, she will really appreciate it from the bottom of her heart. Don’t just watch her do all the efforts, you have to make some effort too and show her your love. You get it? You can make an Okayu[1] for her. And then, you will feed her yourself. Can you imagine what I’m saying? That’s somewhat romantic as well, don’t you think?" Zaki continued without stopping to breath and Sei remained frozen as his gaze was focused into him. He was blinking like a child intently trying to process every word he said as though he was scrutinizing its sense.

Thankfully, Zaki’s desperate way in distracting Sei from the main topic seemed to be a great success.

"But I don’t know how." Sei said and Zaki patted his shoulder.

"Leave that to this master of Okayu. Just believe with the great me and I will teach you how to cook the best Okayu in the world Sei." Zaki said but Sei just looked at him with extreme doubts due to his overly exaggerated and unserious words. Noticing his disbelief Zaki could only sigh and tell him the truth.

"Mom taught me how to cook it and it’s actually so easy that the kiddie me that time learned it in no time." He continued and upon hearing him said the word ’mom’, Sei remembered that time when his mother was teaching Zaki everything even cooking simple recipes while he was being detained in front of computers. Thus, the thought of it made him finally believe his words.

"Okay, I will try." Sei then said and Zaki’s eyes turned ecstatic.

"That’s the spirit Sei. Do everything for the sake of your wife. Come, let’s go." Zaki replied while celebrating like mad deep within and Sei just obediently followed him towards the kitchen.
