Chapter 80 - Do You Hate My Appearance?

"What does this flower mean?"

"Er… The- the sun is always s.h.i.+ning when I'm with you," she finally said. Her answer was what she really felt in that moment. To her, Sei was like the suns.h.i.+ne when the sky turned gray for her and she just wanted to tell him that. That was why she decided to defer from executing her original plan in the mean time.

Truth was that she bought the daffodil for her to use as a prop in executing the next step.

'Step #20; Pique his interest and leave him wondering'

Hinari advised her to never spill the bundle all at once as if there was no tomorrow. She also stated; 'leaving your man wondering just how much you like him or just how much you care will keep the show running forward. As I've said before, mystery is seductive. Don't reveal things mindlessly but leave the person feeling slightly uncertain about the extent of your feelings. You have to keep your Ace hidden and only reveal it at the perfect moment. But of course, never forget to drop obvious hints from time to time and never stop moving forward.'

Initially, Davi was supposed to execute both steps 19 and 20 when she reached home, but the appearance of that person ruined the plan.

What was worse was that step number 19, the art of slipping back unannounced, was obviously executed by Sei instead. He appeared out of nowhere and saved her at the time she needed him the most. He even got to be her personal superhero, eventually making her fail in executing her mission.

Thinking about it made Davi imagine a scene where the two of them were having a race and she was about to win when Sei suddenly overtook her. It was a thought that instantly made her heart burn.

What is this? Sei, are you trying to seduce me instead? I'm supposed to be the one doing the seducing here!

Shortly after that, as they finally left and were on their way to Gray mansion, Davi was quietly encouraging herself.

No worries. No worries. I'll just have to redo 19 and 20 again when the right time comes. Just you wait Sei, I definitely won't let you get ahead of me.

Meanwhile, Sei was staring at Davi when she suddenly glared at him as though she just had a sudden thirst for his blood. At that moment, Sei instantly froze. That was the first time he'd seen her glare at him like that. He was painfully confused and at the same time, he suddenly felt a certain strange feeling that was almost close to fear. Fear that he might have made her hate him. Why? Could it be that…

"Do you hate my appearance?"

Sei's voice were somewhat cold and sad and the moment she heard him, Davi couldn't help but feel perplexed. She instantly shook her head multiple times.

"H-huh? Of course not. Why should I hate such a good looking face?" She immediately answered as she looked at him with confused eyes.

Seeing the sudden change in her expression and her puzzled face convinced him that it must have been some misunderstanding on his part.

"Is it fine with you?"

"Of course is it." Davi was still puzzled with his questions, however, she then realized that Sei must've been just trying to consider her feelings about him disguising himself. This somehow made her smile and so she started moving closer to his face.

"Ca-can I touch it?" she asked and without saying a word, Sei moved his face closer to her and he let her touch his masked face.

The girl then started caressing his cheek as if she was trying to feel whether it was just like human flesh or not. Afterwards, like a curious little girl, she started poking his face all over, not realizing that the man had become a rigid statue the moment she touched him.
