Chapter 116 - More Than That
Later that night, Davi was waiting for Sei as she laid quietly on the bed. She was yawning and a bout of sleepiness was being reflected in her eyes.
She felt tired and mentally exhausted, because of the overwhelming series of tests she took the whole day, back in city lab. But before she wanted to fall asleep, she needed to tell him about her plan of taking him out to meet her best friend tomorrow.
However, seconds later, Davi gave in and she finally closed her eyes as the world of dream started swallowing her.
That same moment, the door was quietly opened, and a man slowly walked towards the sleeping girl. He sat at the edge of the bed as he stared at her deeply for a long time. Until he just gradually found himself staring at her lips again. And the next second, an urge of wanting to kiss her suddenly surged within him causing him to instantly stiffened. He knew he was feeling those unfamiliar emotions again.
Every time her lips connected to his, no matter how brief it was, Sei just felt like his entire being was electrocuted and he was liking it to the point that he was secretly waiting for it every time he leaves.
However, this time, Sei felt something different and completely unfamiliar. As he stared at her, he felt as though, it"s not only the usual brief kiss he wanted, he felt as though, he just wanted more than that. But in the end, Sei spent almost an hour just staring at her, until he kissed her gently in her forehead before he finally laid beside her.
…
The next morning, Davi woke up without Sei by her side. And when she saw the rays of suns.h.i.+ne streaming through the window, she immediately rose because she realized she failed to tell him about today"s plan.
Due to that, she rushed out the room to find him while praying that he didn"t leave yet. It was because, she knew that Hinari will not entertain her at all if she couldn"t bring him with her. So as soon as she set foot in the living room, her gaze immediately directed into the sofa where he always sat. But to her surprise and disappointment, the man wasn"t there.
"Good morning miss."
A voice of someone who appeared to be Kaide, rang behind her. Causing her to immediately turn and asked him.
"Good morning, have you seen Sei?" she asked and when the man nodded, she sighed with relief.
"Where is he?"
"Ah, they"re in the courtyard…" he replied, and the girl immediately walked away towards the courtyard.
"W-wait miss, they"re currently in an intense… miss…" Kaide called for her but Davi just ignored him so he could only follow her. And by the time he caught up to her, Davi was already halted as her gaze was glued unto the two men fighting intensely in front of her. She looked as though she couldn"t believe what she"s seeing at all. And Kaide understood her well, it was because, even he was still amazed by the inhuman skills of his boss and especially his personal bodyguard, Zaki.
"T-they"re just training right?" Davi finally asked without averting her gaze away from them.
"Ah, yes miss. Those two are always doing this if they have time. This is normal for them, quite intense right?"
"N-normal? But… why do they look like they"re trying to kill each other?"
