Chapter 381 - If this reassures him then.. (2/2)

It must be easy for guys like Yang to lie with a smile on their faces.

”Yang…” Setsura mumbled. ”I thought you wanted to give me a gift?”

Yang however continued his actions, her body gradually got hotter and she felt her legs grow weak. The more he teased her this way, the more her resentment grew. Can she break up with him now for acting like such an unreasonable prick?

Setsura does not remember him behaving so brashly when they first went out.

She does not know how long Yang continued with that but it ended up with her crouching down on the ground. Her legs completely gave out a few minutes ago.

”So hey,” Yang said. ”I was thinking if you're going to break up with me, could you wait until after you finish your mission?”

Setsura sighed at his suggestion. What good would that do? One of the reasons why she is dumping him is.. Well, forget it. The whole dumping thing was only a passing thought, he is taking it too seriously. As of the moment, she wants to remain with Yang.

She extended her hand out. ”Carry me.”

Yang looked at her surprised but picked her up. She wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face there. ”Are you going to keep worrying? You know we have a lot to do here, and not enough time.”

According to Oslo they have at most a week but they should cut it short to a few days.

”I know.” Yang nodded. ”But..”

Setsura sighed. ”Just relax and quit behaving like a jerk. It was only a passing thought.”

”You're as cruel as ever. Okay so it was a passing thought, then why are you so reluctant to sleep with me these days?”

”Because we are being watched all the time.” Setsura pointed out. She knew this was not the first day those two started following her around.

Yang frowned. ”I will speak to them, so can we..”

”Alright.”

If this is something that reassures him then okay.

But is it? The voice in the back of her head is telling her that no this is all wrong. However, she wont listen to this voice.

......…

Setsura woke up and found a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist. It seems like she fell asleep in a strange position. She extended her hand out towards the dark marks across his chest. To think these marks are actually the markings of a stray. The story from the other day remained fresh in her mind.

So many marks… According to what Oslo said to her, the number of markings and the deeper they are represents how many they killed. It seems like Yang sacrificed a lot for her. A subject who has completed his mission already. He already obtained the item that would help him fulfill his wish and yet he remained here. He stayed here, ended up a target, and thus leading to killing people.

Oslo did not give her the full story but Yang remained for her. He heard that she would be coming here and decided not to go back. If Yang did not stay, he would not have had to live a life on the run.

When he is sleeping, he almost looks like a child. Yet Setsura shuddered when she recalled that maniac looking he had on his face in the alleyway. Recently she sees it a lot, his split personality. Its strange that it is suddenly coming out a lot. When they first started dating, Setsura seldom saw it.

Is it because he held back this entire time?
