Davi woke up suspicious the next morning.
She was staring at the book on the table she was just holding last night. Then, her eyes fell towards the small white teddy bear on her bed. She was still half-asleep but by the time she remembered her dream last night, that Sei was caressing her cheek as she fell asleep on his arms, she got up instantly and ran towards the door.
Her hair was messy as she quickly walked down the stairs. She looked around but she saw no one. She then walked towards the kitchen and thankfully, Mr. Gou was there preparing her meal.
“Mr. Gou, did Sei came home?” she asked, surprising the butler slightly.
“He did arrive late at night young miss. How did you know?” he replied with a smile on his face. Davi’s eyes immediately sparkled as soon as she heard he arrived.
“Where’s he?” she asked, sounding excited.
Looking at her brightened spirit, the old man felt sorry as he speaks. “He already left, young miss.”
Davi was silenced. She didn’t know why but this time she really felt so damn upset. She sat on the chair and landed her head on the table as if some powerful force just sucked all her energy.
Why did he leave without even waking me up?
That moment, realization finally dawned on her, that she’s being like this because she’s been missing him too much. She wanted to see him so bad.
“Please don’t feel sad young miss. The young master dropped by last night just to give you this.” Davi immediately raised her head upon hearing the old man’s words. Her mouth hanged opened as she stared at the cellphone he’s giving her. “The young master said that if you wanted to contact him, you’ll only use this phone. His number is already there.”
Davi was looking at it with her eyes filled with disbelief. Moments later, he accepted it and she quietly opened it. And when she saw a single phone number saved in it, Davi finally smiled and she hugged the old man briefly before walking away, leaving the old butler smiling happily for her.
…
At the quiet gazebo, Davi was thinking deep. She realized that Sei surely have some not-so-simple reasons for all of this and she felt bad for feeling upset towards him. However, she comforted herself right away, telling herself that feeling upset was normal. And it looks like the result of her showing how upset she was, was actually a good thing. She was happy to know that Sei was actually looking out for her even though he’s not beside her.
Thinking about it, she was motivated to work even harder. She breathed deeply and her eyes started to burn passionately.
However, as time goes by, Davi’s eyes were getting narrowed as she stared at the phone on the table. She looks as though she was simulating a certain strategy before starting the war, but it looks like she’s having some trouble.
She was considering the fact that she can’t possibly call him whenever she wants since she doesn’t know where he is at the moment. What if he’s busy or he’s actually at the other side of the globe and it’s already past midnight in the place where he is?
Apart from that, Davi was also having a hard time choosing which step should she execute first.
However, after minutes of thinking, an excited and meaningful smile finally carved in her face. She looks like she finally found the perfect strategy.
