Chapter 202 - Despite Him Being Cold
The moment Davi strike the last note, she opened her eyes and she glanced at the moon before she took a deep breath. She then quietly moved and slowly turned around, curios if Sei was already asleep.
However, to her surprise, the man was standing still at his same spot a moment ago as his gaze were locked into her. Causing her to feel a bit disconcerted because it seems that his lullaby when he was young was not effective for him anymore.
She then walked towards Sei who was still motionless as she scratch her nape.
"I heard that you always listen to a piano song to fall asleep when you were young so i thought it can still make you sleep..." Davi couldn"t finish her statement. It was because suddenly, Sei just pulled her into his chest and he hugged her tightly like never before.
That moment, Davi was surprised. She will never forget how it feels every time Sei embraces her. She will always remember just how warm and soothing it was to be wrapped around his arms.
However, for some reason, Sei"s hug this time was different. She felt like his hug was stronger than ever. The way he holds her just seemed as though he just never want to let go of her anymore.
Davi can hear the loud beating of his heart and she just felt like he was trying to impress upon her to never let go and just let him hug her. The next moment, she could only gently squeeze him back as she buried her face on his chest. That instant, Davi didn"t understand why Sei was being like this, but strangely, she too felt that she just wanted to hug him back. Her mind and body just wanted to stay in his arms like that.
Until time went by and no words came out of Sei"s mouth. He didn"t let go of her, and his head just rested at the nook of her neck.
Then suddenly, Davi felt him slowly going limp and his temperature seemed to have risen. She already felt his body being a bit too warm the moment he hugged her but she thought that it might be because she was blus.h.i.+ng, so she ignored it. But after minutes, she finally realized that something"s off.
"Sei? Are you alright? I think you"re a bit too hot." She said but the man didn"t reply. Causing her to be anxious.
She then decided to pull away but before she could move, they suddenly fell on the bed.
And the next moment, Davi found herself on top of him. It took a while before she finally rose as she looked at him. And when she saw him sweating, she raised her hand to feel his temperature. But then, her eyes turned wide the moment he saw hives all over his skin.
Davi immediately jumped out of the bed and hurriedly walked towards the door. And as soon as she opened it, Mr. Chen was already there.
"Mr. Chen, Sei is sick, I think we need to take him to the hospital." She said with extremely worried look. And seeing how anxiously worried she was, Zaki could only pat her head.
"Easy, young miss. Why are you two so worrywart when it comes to each other? Sigh, it"s just a fever, okay?"
"No, it"s not only fever, he has hives all over..."
"Don"t worry, his temperature will stabilize soon enough, and those hives are not threatening. Come, let"s just make him drink this pill and all will be well." Zaki nonchalantly said and Davi could only follow him despite the extreme anguish in her heart.
They then immediately helped the sick man drink a pill before he fell back to sleep again.
After a while, Davi just lovingly gazed at his peaceful face before she averted her gaze towards Mr. Chen.
"Are you sure this is fine?" she then asked looking worriedly by the minute.
"You lack faith in me young miss." he just mischievously replied causing Davi"s brows to crease.
"How come you already know that he"s sick?" Davi then asked again as Zaki was preparing to leave. And upon hearing her, he sidled towards her as he whispered.
"Actually, despite him being cold, this man"s skin was actually sensitive to cold itself. Funny right? He becomes like that once he is exposed to sudden icy temperature or cold water. His mother was like that so it seems like he inherited it from her. So don"t worry okay? It"ll only last for two hours and he will be back to normal again." Zaki said before he finally left.
Davi who was left beside Sei just remained there watching him quietly for a long while before she slowly landed her palm on his forehead. And the moment she finally convinced herself that his temperature was indeed starting to go back to normal, she released a sigh of relief before she laid beside him with her arm lovingly wrapped around him.
