Ch 7. Tears Karyu looked away from me and muttered. I couldn’t hear everything he said, but I know what or rather who he was talking about. I watched him began walking toward the door.
I grabbed his arm and pulled him toward me, wrapping my arms around him. I sighed softly to myself and slowly rubbed Karyu’s back. It felt a bit strange having him so close to me again and surprisingly it felt so natural.
“I’m sorry, Karyu-san,” I said softly, “It’s my fault I made you cry. I should’ve stopped myself, but I…”
I turned my head at the interruption and noticed the door open. Toshiya entered the room a bit hesitantly and called, “Asagi-san…” He paused at the sight of us and pulled myself awat from Karyu.
I looked at Karyu and said, “Anou…take the rest of the day off. You’ve worked very hard today.” I smiled softly and gave him a little pat on the back, before he walked out of the bathroom.
I moved my gaze to my secretary and smiled a little at him. “Ready to go?” I asked, reaching over for Toshiya’s hand.
He accepted it and smiled softly as he gave a little nod, leading us out the room. We headed toward the elevator and he pushed the button.
“I was wondering what was taking you so long,” Toshiya said, before stepping into the elevator and pressing another button.
“Gomen. I didn’t expect to find a fellow employee so upset,” I said.
“Oh, what was wrong?” he asked curiously.
“Hm…just a personal situation, so I figured he should take the rest of the day off.”
“Ah, that’s so nice of you, Asagi~” he beamed, squeezing my hand a bit.
I leaned over and kissed Toshiya’s cheek, then led us toward the cafeteria. We picked up a salad, a couple chicken sandwiches, and some drinks. We sat at our usual table by the window and began eating.
“So, how was the last meeting?” the younger man asked, before munching on his salad.
“It went very smoothly. I think we’ve definitely gained the other company’s trust.”
Toshiya nodded a bit and tapped the fork lightly on his bottom lip. “Are you excited about our trip?” he asked, his face brightening up at the change of topic.
“Of course. I’m so happy they’re letting us take some time off together,” I replied with a smile and took a bite of my sandwich.
“I’ve been having a hard time focusing all day. All these exciting ideas keep popping into my head, like where should we go, what should we do, and what to wear. There’s so many choices and I’ve never…”
Toshiya’s voice slowly faded in my mind. All I could think about was what happened in the bathroom. I knew Karyu admitted he had emotions for me and he had strong negative feelings toward my lover, but I never really thought of his drunken confession was his true feelings.
I wonder if it’s strange to feel guilty for what I did that night and not hurt by Karyu’s jealous words. I know Toshiya’s not a slut, he’s far from it, but does that mean I’m one? No, I’m just a cheater. Why couldn’t I resist? Am I…secretly attracted to him?
No, I can’t be. It was just a drunken one night stand. It didn’t mean anything, even though I’ve never experienced anything that amazing. His moans, his masculine lean, nude body, and those lovely lips make me…What am I saying! I’ve worked on this relationship with Toshiya for too long and no one can change how I feel for him. I know I love him. I’ll always love Karyu…er…Toshiya.
“…Asagi?” the brunette interrupted.
“Hm?” I blinked a bit at him.
“Am I talking too much again?” he asked, pouting a little.
“Ah, no, not at all. Just making a mental note of everything,” I replied with a little smile.
