73 Oh no, I’m in trouble (1/2)
I don't know why.. but I had a feeling that I want to sleep longer, preferable for a few months. My eyelids felt slightly heavy and I can smell a familiar fragrance that made my heart beat fast.
No wonder. My brain registered it first before I could process it. He's here. Kuro is here. So, I turn sideway, hiding my face away all the while pretending to keep on sleeping. Crossing my finger on my chest, hoping that he'll leave me alone and won't get angry at me for breaking the 'You're grounded' golden rule: not to go out.
I know, I know. Trust me to break the very core of the rule and still had the cheek to wish for the impossible. But hey, it doesn't hurt to hope.
”Ouch!” Or so I hope. It does hurt to hope. Hurt like a certain needle punctured on your butt cheek.
”Why did you do that??!” I sat up and glare at Kuro. Kuro who had a book on his hand, snap it shut deliberately slow.
”Oh, my wife had awoken. For a second there, I thought you were going to sleep in longer” his facial expression was exactly the same expression on my mom when she caught me climbing up the tree and jumping from tree to tree like a monkey, after setting some traps to prank the others. The 'you're caught red-handed and so in Bigggggggg trouble' expression. He laced his fingers ontop of his abdomen, which I know had packs that packed women lust in a big boxes and can easily distract people-
”My eyes up here, my darling” and that snapped my head back to his face. That prompt me to speak out first. Always attack first, in a losing battle to gain any semblance of advantage. Even if it'll only 0.0001 percent chances, never let the opportunity slip by.
”I don't like being inside one place for too long and I don't appreciate being grounded inside a room like I'm some kind of prisoner. But still, I still did what you asked me to. That was Until I saw a blue orb floating around and followed it. I mean, come on... I was curious and wanted to know where it goes, plus who knows when will I see it again. I didn't know that by following it, it would end up like this” the more I talk, the more it sounded so ridiculously lame and annoying even to my ears. I bite my lips and puffed my cheeks. Trying to stop myself from saying anything, before I regret it more. All the while Kuro eyes never left me. I exhaled slowly.
”I am sorry..” i said with a heavy heart. that finally left my lips.
”Oh, weren't you trying to start a fight with me? Like you and me shouting, screaming at each other throat because I am really, really ready for that.”
”And then what? You'll divorce me? No need. Just give me the paper, I'll sign it. No need for you to overexert yourself”
Something flashed outside.
CRACK!
