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

Hesitation

Meanwhile, at the hospital, Davi was told by the doctor that her brother was fine . She found out that the taxi he boarded on his way back home from school crashed into another car . Thankfully, Haru only suffered some minor injuries, causing Davi to cry in relief .

After an hour, they finally able to leave . Haru hurt his left knee so Ryou offered to carry him . That moment, the boy kept staring at him as though he wanted to ask something .

"Who is he? Is he your husband?" he finally asked towards his big sister, causing Davi to clear her throat awkwardly . She looked at Ryou then faced his little brother .

"Ahh . No, this is big brother Ryou, he's my husband's big brother," she answered causing the man to clear his throat this time .

Er . . Big brother? I'm not really happy to become my master's big brother, y'know .

"Yeah, just call me big bro, okay?" Ryou smiled at the injured boy as he messes his hair and the boy just nodded at him with a smile .

Ryou then carried the boy on his back and they started walking away . But while they're still on their way to the entrance, Haru spoke towards his sister again .

"Sis, when will you introduce your husband to me?"

As soon as she heard his little brother's words, Davi was a bit taken a back . She knew that ever since Haru woke up in the hospital, he was already asking questions even though he never said a thing . Haru was a clever boy, so she was aware that he's been suppressing himself to ask her questions especially when Davi confessed to him that she's already married . She knew that he was worrying this whole time that's why she wanted him to meet Sei, however, she also knew that introducing him a masked man will only increase his suspicion .

"H-he's a busy person . But don't worry, I will introduce him to you when the time comes, okay?" Davi finally answered with a smile in her face . Gladly, Haru, who's always been obedient to his sister just nodded as he looked at his sister with unwavering trust .

...

By the time they stepped out of the hospital, a taxi stopped in front of them . Ryou immediately put the boy inside the car while Davi's line of sight were directed towards the black car across the road .

Seeing this, Ryou sidled towards her .

"I'll take him home first so you can go and speak with him," he said . Davi was surprised with his sudden offer, but hesitation flashed across her eyes when she looked at her brother . However, she wanted to talk to Sei so she soon agreed with him .

After the taxi left, the black car soon stopped in front of her and she boarded into it .

"How's he?" Sei asked while they were tailing the taxi in front .

"He's alright . Thankfully, he just suffered minor injuries . "

"That's a relief . "

"Mm . You're right . "

Davi was feeling hesitant to tell him she won't go home tonight . It was because she's been missing him a lot and she wanted to be with him, now that he finally came home after how many days . Yet at the same time, she can't bear to just leave her brother in his current situation . Ever since that incident happened years ago, Davi's world only evolved solely with his little brother . She stood as both his mother and father despite her being so young . She would even fly like wind no matter where she is or what she's doing once she heard something has happened to her brother . She used to always prioritize his little brother more than anything else, even more than herself without any hesitation . That's why she was quite surprise that she's actually hesitating now .

That moment, she realized one thing, that her world was slowly changing .
