I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband Chapter 37 - The One Who Made Her Cry

Chapter 37 - The One Who Made Her Cry

In the middle of a large road surrounded by countless colorful containers, a masked man was caressing the hair of a crying girl in his arms. He seemed as though he was desperately trying to make her feel better, but it looked like he didnt know how to do that.

Zaki, who was currently the master of reading Sei's body language, was very animated deep within. He was sure Sei was currently being too anxious and it was cracking him up simply because this was the first time Sei ever acted like this. It was as though he was a helpless father, who was anxious to death as he tried to figure out how to make his dearest baby stop crying.

Well, he was doing well considering the fact that this was his first time doing so. Embracing her and caressing her like that was the perfect move a man should do. However, to Zaki, who had been watching Sei since they were young, it was surreal to see him showing such sympathy towards anyone. He remembered that the last time Sei embraced anyone was back when they were twelve.

Zaki was smiling as he looked at the two of them, however, he knew it was still too early to celebrate. After all, he knew that things weren't that easy... And it probably never will be.

After some moments, Davi finally calmed down and started letting go of Sei. She wiped her tears and looked at him.

"You came to rescue me, right?" she asked but the man seemed frozen and without a word, he just nodded. Davi felt there was something somewhat different with him at the moment. But thinking he was just worried about her, she decided to show him she was fine. She smiled brightly and talked to him again. "Well, I was slightly worried because I thought no one would come to help me but then, you suddenly appeared! So, thank you."

Her words were sweet and sincere.

However, the masked man was again silent and the next thing he did almost made Davi's heart stop. His long fingers suddenly wiped the remaining traces of tears from her face, as gently as ever. She didn't know why, but the way he touched her face almost felt as though he was saying a really sincere and sad apology, as if he was the one who made her cry. The feeling that his gesture was just a bit extreme made Davi's heart twist as she looked at him. She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, she wasn't sure if she was just thinking too much. However, she just couldn't stop herself from feeling that he was blaming himself.

So she touched his hand, which was on her face, as she smiled brightly at him.

"I-I'm really fine. I think I'm just a bit too happy that you came, that's why. Haha." Davi's words weren't a lie. The reason she cried wasn't because she was scared, it was because Sei really came and saved her. She couldn't believe he really appeared and it caused her to tear up.

Thankfully, after a few seconds of silence, the man finally talked.

"No, you're not," he said, making Davi speechless for some moments.

"You're not fine at all," he repeated as he squatted in front of her. He touched her foot then looked up.

"Lift." He ordered and Davi could only do as he commanded.

The moment she lifted her foot, Davi's instinct made her subconsciously cross her arms and hug herself. It was because Sei's aura blazed with a seemingly intense anger the moment he saw how awful the bleedings cuts were on her feet.
