I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband

The next day after that, due to her approaching exam, Davi locked herself in her study room. Nevertheless, when evening came, the girl decided to execute another step to continue her mission.

She then took her precious note and she scrutinized it for a while before she finally chose the most fitting one.

’Step #15; Send him text throughout the day’

Hinari warned Davi never to treat this step as something effortless and simple. She told her that this step also requires some rules to make it effectively successful.

The first rule was to message him casually, or a message that somehow appeared laid-back but sweet at the same time. She also said that it is better to send him messages that was not too bold at the beginning.

Thus, understanding the said advice, Davi then sent him a simple ’good evening’ with a winking cat emoji.

And as soon as she sent it, like a teenage girl waiting for her crush’s reply, Davi was a bit anxious as she waits when the phone suddenly rung.

Huh? He’s calling?

Davi was quite surprised. She did not expect the man to suddenly give her a call.

Thankfully, she manage to react quite fast and she cleared her throat first before answering the phone.

"Hello? S-sei?"

"Mm, it’s me."

Sei’s quick answer somehow made Davi a bit stunned. Additionally, his voice was just gorgeous enough that anyone who hears him might think he’s some lost mythical god talking at the other side of the phone.

"Uhh..." Unexpectedly, the girl was lost for words. She struggled thinking about the words she will say and she didn’t know why. "Uhm... y-yesterday, are you busy when I called?"

Well, that was the first topic that appeared in her mind.

"I’m not." Sei’s prompt answer made Davi’s brows knitted slightly. Then why did you not say anything?

Davi wanted to ask, but she didn’t.

"I-is that so?" she said and the man just uttered a short "Mm."

"Oh, okay. Ah, my exam will be this Saturday."

Davi somehow started talking casually. In addition, a smile started carving beautifully in her face when the man cheered her up. "Do your best."

"Mm. Thank you. Is it okay for me to call you at this same time again?"

"Anytime."

"Eh? Anytime? Are you sure?"

"Mm."

"O-okay." Davi was surprised that he said she could call him anytime. It was because the reason why she did not call him again yesterday until now was that she was afraid she might disturb him.

So of course, hearing him said that made her smiled pleasantly, however, a certain feeling inside her chest started bothering her and her smile began to fade.

A short silence then went by before Davi could talk again.

"When will you come back home?" she asked and her voice suddenly sounds melancholic. However, what she heard next instantly turned her eyes wide in disbelief.

"I’m home."

Huh? Did I heard it wrong?

Davi blinked more than three times before she could raise her head for she finally felt that someone seemed to be watching her. And as soon as she saw the masked man’s silhouette standing on the entrance and looking towards her, Davi immediately fell in daze as he stared at him, speechless.

What? Are you serious? What is this? Why does this felt as if he’s attacking me back with his own surprises? Is this some sort of counter attack?
