Chapter 63 – We need to talk (2)
Translator: SKAIS Editor: SKAIS
Ricdorian’s hand that was holding mine slowly took my hand out of his mouth. And when I stared back at him, I saw his calm eyes– indicating that his rational side was awake right now.
Soon, I looked at my hands and shook them without hesitation. Oh, was his rational side back?
“Well, that…”
“Huh?”
“I’m, I’m sorry.”
His face, which turned red, managed to apologize. And this was an excellent opportunity to tease him.
I raised the corners of my mouth, lifting the fingers that just had an intimate contact with his mouth. The moment he caught a glimpse of my hand, his cheeks were dyed redder than before.
“Why, don’t you wanna ask for more?”
“Then…”
I withdrew my hand after throwing a nasty joke and wiped it with a handkerchief. Glancing back at Ricdorian, I could tell that he was lost and didn’t know what to do.
But not long after, I became so absorbed in cleaning my hand that I took my eyes off him for a moment. However, when I looked up again, I saw Ricdorian’s chin resting on his chained hands.
“Can I ask for it one more time? Really?”
What?
No, why can you easily change like that?
“…when did you change?” I asked in disbelief.
How about a little notice? Those words I said went out of my mouth in unconsciousness. No way, this was not the way things should be.
Here I am, already celebrating that finally I can have a proper talk with him but why the sudden change?
I sighed in frustration.
You can’t blame me for thinking this way because, from my past experience, I realized that the only way we could communicate was through his rational side as that’s the only part of him that could speak well plus it’s his only side that was sane enough not to do such inappropriate actions.
As for this grown-up Ricdorian, he may possess the ability to talk, but he still doesn’t understand people at all. It was like that only his instinct remained in him.
This was not good.
I moved my butt further away from him.
“There.”
Apparently I had no sweat, but I felt like I had a cold sweat hanging on the tip of my chin. And as he looked at me, I couldn’t help but think that he was like a fluffy badger with a seemingly languid gaze.
“Why are you following me?”
“Because you keep on stepping back?”
“Aren’t you a beast?”
You want to go after me?
At this instant, his arms and legs grew longer, and this distance between us was already within his range. Sure enough, he moved his hand to block my only path to retreat fully.
“Why are you avoiding me? Do you hate me very much?”
“…why are you asking me that… .”
How can you say that with that face?
“Why the hell did you change?” I asked. “Can’t you change back?” I asked further.
“No, you can’t, but… You’ve changed over time before.” I finished questioning him, but he just tilted his head.
The hair that flowed down along the loose tilt of the head covered the forehead slightly. And between them, the grown-up blue eyes slowly blinked.
“I don’t know, Master. I’m sick of it. It was always like this.”
“I’m not your master. How many times have I…”
