I LOVE YOU, MONSTER: THE BLINDFOLDED WIFE X THE MASKED HUSBAND

Guilty

Seeing Sei almost about to snap, Zaki decided to stop teasing him .

Haha, dear self, let's back off for the mean time .

"Ahem, young miss, listen . " Zaki started talking . "YiJin here isn't a ghost okay? Does that cute little thing look like a ghost to you?"
he continued while pointing at the apologetic looking boy .

He is right, Yijin is the kind of a pretty boy any teenage girl wanted to just squeeze with hugs and kisses . But who said all ghosts looks scary and disgusting? Beautiful ghosts also exist, right?

Not hiding her doubts anymore, Davi opened her mouth . "But how did he get in? I'm sure he wasn't there before . There's no way he could came in without me noticing at all . "

Her words made Zaki took a deep sigh as he stared at the boy as though telling him 'this is all your fault, brat . '

"Ahh, so that's why huh . Actually, this brat here is a rare species . . . I mean, have you heard about individuals who sometimes appeared nonexistent or unnoticeable? Well, I don't really know if they really have that certain aura but . . . hmm, he just has that very weak presence that people easily overlook him as if he doesn't exist at all . The truth is . . . Even I get startled by him . Yeah, from freaking time to time because I could only notice him once he talks or make an obvious move . It's actually his real nature, did you . . . I mean . . . convinced?"

Hearing his long explanation, Davi's excessive fear lessened into half . It was because she remembered that she once read an article about what they called 'grey man'[1] . She didn't know if the case were somewhat similar but she felt as though Zaki's explanation does really makes sense .

She then slowly raised her head and stared at the young man .

"Please, let me apologize . " She said as she slowly reached out her hand . The next second, her finger started poking the boy's cheek, carefully and gently with a stance that she was ready to run away . However, by the time she finally started pinching him, Davi is finally convinced . "Ohh . You really are human . Forgive me for misunderstanding you . "

The young man on the other hand, instantly turned red because Davi started pinching both of his cheek as if she just wanted to punish him for scaring her in a really cute and embarrassing way .

A view that instantly turned the quiet man colder .

"And boss here... how should I put this . You know he's always have that scary aura right?" Zaki abruptly talked to get Davi's attention . It was because, the masked man's aura was turning even darker as he kept staring at his wife touching another man .

Thankfully, Davi turned her head . She stared at the masked man, fidgeting .

"It's not about that," she said . Causing Zaki's brows knitted as he looked at Sei .

"Eh? Young master, what did you do?" he asked but the masked man just replied him in his same unmotivated voice . "I didn't do anything . "

Hearing his answer, Zaki turned his head back towards Davi .

"Wait, don't tell me it's because of what he said?" he asked and he couldn't help but scratch his head when Davi nodded .

"Did you think he can see what's on your mind? Or what you're saying deep within?" he asked again, and again, she nodded .

"Haha, I think you should explain yourself to her . " Zaki laughed as he turned towards Sei .

But Sei stayed silent . And his silence strangely made Davi felt a sudden guilt . She didn't know why but she suddenly felt sad the moment she realized that she's actually thinking he was ghost . Deep within her, she doesn't want to get scared of him at all . And she suddenly felt bad, feeling sorry about her treatment to him .

Thinking about that, she then stepped closer him, fidgeting .

"I'm... I'm sorry, I think I just got carried away because of my excessive fear . I think I'm . . . I'm just overthinking things way too much . " She said apologetically .

Hearing her sudden apology, Sei's coldness abruptly disappeared .

"No, it's fine . I'm fully aware why you're scared . Don't sweat it . " He said and patted her head before nonchalantly walking away as if nothing happened .

...

At the master's bedroom .

Davi was already asleep the moment Sei reached the bedroom . He stood beside the bed and watched her wife's peaceful sleeping face for a long time .

Minutes went by and Sei finally laid in the bed . And as soon as he was about to close his eyes, he felt her warm hand tightly hugging him .

"I'm sorry," she said . Sei was instantly surprised . She's still awake? What's she asking sorry for?

Sei was about to talk but he stopped right away the moment he heard her weak and cute snore .

Sleep talking?

Sei's hand fell into her head and he started caressing her hair gently as ever .
