I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband
Chapter 168: You're just the same as meSei just stared at the message for a long time before he finally snapped and to Zaki's surprise, the man suddenly rose noisily. He gripped his cellphone as he quietly started walking away when the puzzled Zaki immediately stopped him by grabbing his shoulder.
"Hey, where are you going?" he asked when Sei just looked at him with nonchalant look, as though telling him the words 'why ask if you already know?'.
That moment, Zaki's brows knitted with the thought of what was possibly in Sei's mind.
"Home." Sei then said before he began walking away again, causing Zaki's mouth to hanged opened as he problematically slapped his own forehead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGod… just by reading that message, you already forget about everything and just wanna go home? This little… Ahh, this is not what I wanted to happen damn it…
"Hey, hey, hey. Stop right there Sei. Are you really saying we're going home?" Zaki said as he hastily caught up with him before he could open the door.
Zaki blocked the door and Sei just looked at him.
"She wanted to see me." Sei said causing Zaki to glare at him seriously.
"Sei, didn't you come here to solve your problem? Didn't you say you'll do this seriously? Is this the kind of resolve you're trying to show? You'll just go back home when you feel like it?" Zaki asked firmly and seriously when Sei just looked at him with his same nonchalant expression as he talks back.
"Who said I won't go back? And who was it that urging me to take a break? We'll just drop by. An hour is enough." Sei replied and Zaki's serious aura immediately crumbled as invisible big sweat drops fell down his forehead. At the same time, his veins started popping one after another upon realizing what Sei wanted to happen.
This frozen little log… take a break my ass…
"Hey Sei… did you forget where we are? Are you freaking serious?! You want us to travel twelve hours on air and back again? That's twenty-four hours for goodness' sake. And you called that taking a break?!" The calm Zaki finally burst out, as he started crying without tears just by imagining the deadly travel. Well, he still remembered what happened that time when they went home just because he received a message that his wife was upset.
No!! What have I done? The miss' effect this time is not good at all…
Hearing Zaki's rants, Sei just averted his gaze and his eyes glimmered for some reason as he opened his mouth.

"Heehh… so this is because you missed her so much, huh. You are missing her too much, right? Right?" he asked with his usual mischievous tone, as he wags his invisible tail.
"I miss her?" Sei repeated and the man just nodded like a rattle.
"Mm, mm. That's right, you're absolutely missing her."
"…"
"Listen Sei, when you feel like you wanted to see someone so bad, then you're definitely missing her, you get it?"
"So… this is how it feels to miss someone, huh… Mm, I get it. Anyway, how did you know all these things?" Sei said as he looked at Zaki with a look as though telling him the words, 'don't tell me you've learned all these through experience because you're just the same as me'. Causing Zaki to have another series of sweat drops above his head.
D-do you really need to ask me that? Sigh…
Well, Zaki won't tell him that he actually learned every knowledge he had through reading all sort of books back when he was trying to understand human's emotion to help Sei and himself. But unknown to Sei, the roots of all Zaki's knowledge about emotions was no other than Sei's mother. Those times while Sei was forcefully spending all his times in front of computers, Zaki spent his time with Sei's mother. All of the stories Sei have no interest with when he was still free was all told by Fei to Zaki. And that time Sei took him out of the lab, Zaki was just an empty sheet. He knows nothing about emotions and he doesn't even know how to smile. But as he spent his time with Sei's mother, he learned lots of things. It was Sei's mother that slowly turned him into what he is. Fei those times treated him as his own son, and Zaki was given a chance to experience a mother's love, despite them being unrelated at all. And it was something Zaki will never forget as long as he lives. He will never forget that he, who was a nameless boy was named and saved by Sei and was loved by Sei's mother unconditionally.
