Chapter 103 - A Little Pain (2/2)

”I got it. We're coming back,” Sei-er immediately said to the man on the other side of the phone before he ended the call. The driver also immediately turned the car around as Sei-er just silently stared outside the window.

That moment, Davi was speechless and she could only sit back properly again when he suddenly heard a really rare word coming from him.

”I-I'm sorry,” he said, and he looked at her with guilty, earnest eyes. Causing Davi to almost forget to reply back to him.

”Ahh… it's alright. We can still have a date another day, right?” she immediately said, and she forced a smile. It was the first time she heard him said sorry so even though she's undeniably disappointed, she wanted to understand his situation. She was aware that sometimes, things won't just go as planned and besides, there's still another day.

On the other hand, Sei instantly felt relieved the moment he heard her, and he uttered the word ”Mm” as he nodded at her. At the same time, his cold aura dissipated, and he turned back to his soft and warm self again.

However, he was a bit taken aback when Davi asked.

”But, may I know the reason why?”

Sei-er remained quiet for a while before he replied. ”Today is dangerous.”

”D-dangerous? What do you mean?”

”…”

Sei-er didn't answer. He just gazed deeply at her while he lifted his hand and he caressed her head gently as if he was telling her he was sorry, but he couldn't answer her. That moment, Davi felt like something just stung her heart even though she told herself that she understood. And it was not actually because of her disappointment that the date was cancelled, it was because of the fact that she couldn't even know the reasons why.

Davi then went silent. She started thinking deep. She knew how mysterious Sei was, she knew that from the beginning, she was not allowed to know anything about his identity. However, she never once thought that one day, she will start to feel hurt every time Sei won't tell her anything. She didn't know that one day, being not allowed to know anything about him will slowly make her feel a bit of pain. A little pain that would sooner or later gradually grow within her.
