Chapter 43 - Step #18
In the bedroom, Davi was sitting on the edge of the bed while waiting for Sei as he prepared her bath. She decided not to take the risky road in the end. She thought that the gamble wasn"t worth it. However, she didn"t want to waste this opportunity. She had to take advantage of this rare chance and gain some useful experimental results.
While the adrenaline rush was still rolling high, Davi decided to jump up onto a higher level.
"Step #18: First step of physical flirting"
Hinari advised her that this step required precise timing and that she should start with the baby steps. Her great love coach"s words also started echoing in her head. "Remember, flirting is an art so for a newbie like you, you need to begin with simple sketches before putting in the intense colors. Don"t do it in an overly insinuating way, just make it feel natural and safe. If you find a perfect opportunity, just go with the flow but don"t forget your limit. The most important thing is the first step which is to show him that you"re comfortable enough with him. You have to be alert and gauge his reactions. If the reaction is positive then congratulations, you can now step up to the next level but if the reaction is negative, pull back and try again next time."
While Davi"s head was occupied with her mission, she started stripping. She took off her t-s.h.i.+rt and her royal blue t-s.h.i.+rt bra revealed her perfectly milky, porcelain-like skin and her long midnight-colored hair cascaded down her slender and lithe body.
Shortly after, she then started pulling the top half of her jeans down to her knees, revealing her long gorgeous legs. However, she stopped halfway because of the bandages on her feet.
At that same moment, the masked man who just stepped out from Davi"s closet with a white robe in his hand, stood still for a moment and watched the girl, motionless. While Davi was raising both her legs, as her jeans were down to her knees, she noticed the man looking at her so she immediately turned her head towards him. Upon seeing him, Davi"s cheeks turned pink as she slowly put her feet down. Well, even if this scene was purposely set up for him to see, it was still hard for her to strip before him after all, even though they were married couple.
Davi"s plan was simply to strip before him and see his reaction.
However, the next thing the man did completely threw Davi off. He walked straight towards her and dr.a.p.ed the robe on her back then he squatted in front of her and started to help her remove her tight jeans when he suddenly stopped.
His eyes travelled from her legs up to her face in a flash. Then, he rose and made her wear the robe as he helped her cover her body with it. In the end, the robe covered everything down to her knees.
Afterwards, he squatted down again and as gently as possible, as if she was a porcelain doll, he helped her remove her jeans. Davi was completely speechless during the whole process. Her face was still blazing pink and she felt like her temperature rose considerably. Moreover, Sei"s gestures and body language were completely unfathomable. She couldn"t read him at all. The action of covering her body the moment he saw her half n.a.k.e.d was something she couldn"t decipher. Was it a positive reaction or not?
What did he mean by that? Was he affected or not? Did he just not want to see me n.a.k.e.d? Did he think I was going to get cold?
Davi could only wonder about it, feeling a bit defeated. However, when her gaze fell on the man in front of her, Davi couldn"t help but chuckle which made Sei curiously look up at her.
Davi was actually amused because Sei was removing her jeans so seriously and oh so gently, akin to someone trying to defuse a bomb.
Seeing him looking at her, Davi reflexively put her hand on his head and messed up his hair playfully. "You"re doing good, you"re doing good," she said with a big bright smile and Sei just bowed again to continue what he was doing.
Shortly thereafter, Sei carried Davi into the bathroom. The moment his hands touched her bare legs as he carried her, Davi felt a small tingle of an electric shock, turning her already pink cheeks crimson red.
He put her down on a chair near the bath tub then faced her. Looking at her reddened face, Sei could tell she was struggling with something in her mind, and was curious about it.
"Uhm… Thank you," the girl said as she smiled at him again.
