4 AM at Gray Mansion…
“CLICKT!”
The sound of an uncuffing handcuff awakened Davi. She slowly opened her eyes and what appeared before her was her half naked husband, looking at her deeply.
“Sei…” she called out his name and she was about to rise when Sei leaned towards her and kissed her forehead.
“I’ll go get change. I’ll be back later.” He said as he uncuffed her hand.
“Mm.” She replied and Sei immediately left the room. Her gaze was locked onto the closed door for a while before she finally rose. Her knees were a bit weak so she slowly walked towards her closet and dressed herself up.
By the time she returned on the bed, she laid back again and she stared at the ceiling with her arms spread like wings for a long while until Sei finally entered the room.
He was already dressed and he already seemed ready to leave. As she looked at him, something seemed to tugged her heart but she rose and looked at him as she smiled.
“Are you going now?” She asked. She was smiling but deep within her, she felt like her heart was getting heavier.
“Mm.” He uttered and as she looked at his eyes, he seemed to be feeling the same way as her. There was sadness in his eyes and she could feel it.
Looking at him, Davi continued smiling as she stood. She embraced him before she held his face closer to her.
“Don’t be so sad, we maybe parting this time but its temporary right?” She said, trying to ease the sadness brimming in his eyes.
Hearing her, Sei gently bumped his forehead into hers.
“Davi… I… I might take a long while this time.” He said, his voice was hoarse and still sad.
“Mm. I understand. I’ll wait no matter how long you take. That’s a promise.” She replied as she caressed the back of his head.
That moment, the two just held each other like they don’t want to be parted at all. They never want to. But they both know that the circumstances won’t let them until his war is over.
“For your safety, you can’t contact me either.” He continued and Davi simply uttered an “Mm”. Mr. Chen actually talked to her about it before he left so she wasn’t shocked anymore. She fully understands what kind of battlefield is waiting for him and she knew the extreme caution they need to follow for the sake of their safety.
“I’m going to end this all, I promise. When I come back, we will be together, forever.” He said as he gently caressed her cheeks with his thumbs. The sadness in his eyes were overshadowed with another great intensity of emotion, an overflowing determination and fighting spirits.
“Mm. We will be together, forever. I will be waiting for your return.” She replied and they kissed. They shared a long passionate kiss that sealed their promises.
Just after their lips parted, they heard a soft knock on the door as they both catch up with their breaths. Sei then held her hand and they both stepped out of the room.
“Everything is ready boss.” Kir said and Sei’s grip in her hand tightened.
“Mm.” He uttered as they both slowly followed the man. For the past four months, they both parted many times, however, this is the first time they ever felt like this. They felt like they just wanted to stay together, they don’t want to let go of each other’s hand. And it’s making their hearts feeling a new kind of ache for being apart.
That moment, they both counted every steps they took, quietly inside their hearts until they finally stepped out of the house. They both then faced each other and when the man in black opened the car’s door, they suddenly buried themselves into each other’s arms.
The sky was still dark and the breeze was cold, but to them, their hearts are burning wildly.
“Davi… I love you.” He uttered as he kissed her eyes.
“I love you too Sei… I love you so much.” She replied and they kissed once again. Not minding the guards around waiting for him.
“Wait for me.” He again said and Davi nodded.
“Mm. I’ll wait for you. Promise me you’ll comeback safe.” She said and after another long tight hugs and deep kisses, the two finally let go of each other.
Davi smiled brightly as she waved her hand as the man stood before the car’s door. Seeing his wife waving at him, he too slowly raised his hand imitating her gesture.
He waved at her and that little thing he does made Davi chuckle. It was because she finally saw her chibi Sei waving cutely at her. And the way he wave his hand seemed like it was his first time doing it. Making Davi smiled even brighter.
She then raised her other hand and waved both of her hands at him and the man also did the same. Adding more cuteness to his already overflowing adorable gestures.
Until finally, he entered the car and the car’s door closed. It immediately began speeding away like a released arrow and in no time, the car disappeared in front of her eyes.
