Chapter 123 - Slowly Drifting Away (2/2)

”Huh? Hey… when did I bully someone?”

”And you don't even know it. Seriously, you and the boss are slowly drifting away into another dimension, I can't keep up.”

”Huh? What are you---” Zaki turned towards Sei and he was speechless the moment he saw the man quietly covering his mouth with the back of his hand while his gaze was glued outside the window.

And not just that, the man was obviously in a really pleasant mood as though he was wrapped with bright pinkish light all over.

”Err… what happened to him? Did the miss do something unusual?”

”Well, I guess so, the miss might have stepped the kiss up a bit.”

”Ohh… the miss surely knows when to be bold huh… well, I don't really know how to cure his ignorance in romance anymore but, I know this monster-turned-human is learning.”

”Hmm… you think he'll be the one to make the move soon?”

”Well, I don't know what's going on in this little log's mind, but I know he's reaching his limit.”

”Hey, are you sure you don't mind calling him like that?”

”Haha… you don't have to worry. Do you think I will risk my life just like that? Do you think this guy can even hear us right now? Even if I poke his cheek right now, he won't---”

”Zaki…” the moment, Sei called his name, the talkative guy clammed his mouth immediately while Ryou just laughed silently. ”Shut your mouth.” He continued, however, because his voice that moment wasn't frozen cold, Zaki remained unfazed.

”Anyway Sei, have you told her we're leaving tomorrow?” he asked and the bright atmosphere around him slowly dissipated. A sign that he hasn't told her yet.

”Make sure you'll tell her tonight… it'll be bad if you'll only tell her in the last minute.”

”Mn.”
