Chapter 28 - Struggling between feelings.

<>

(After when Minato ignore him, shut the door in front of him—Toka thinks Minato is ignoring but—)

I stood there staring at the door—for five minutes—bored… then my mind roamed around last night. When he was in my lap sleeping—softly without any rudeness.

I point at the door, "How dare he disrespect me." He whispered in anger while stroking his neck, "Really in my days, all girls and even boys used to die from my little smile.

"But today's kid, They can't understand that!!" He states dramatically—like a retired princess from all his glory he had the youngest times.

I hurriedly adjusted myself, hm… he clapped himself—roughly even his cheeks became red.

I glance at Lion and my room, I grab my sleeve—trembling.

I think, Why I am thinking about him again. Huh! I need to stop it!! I can't betray. 

I step toward our room, open it—soft clack—regret showing by his trembling hands and body covered with sweat all over him.

I see Lion was awake staring at the ceiling without any reason—his routine. He suddenly…

Sit at the corner of the bed—smiling.

I realize something is wrong with him; he never smiles. It was impossible if he did it after waking up…something is literally wrong. I know his routine is just staring until someone calls him—losing in his thoughts.

He stands, goes to the bathroom—after I just hear rush and bushel in the bathroom—like hurrying… but he never did it either!!

After two minutes I only hear—streaming droplets falling while showering—without any rush, not panicking, just peace.

I open the window—my face is pale because of my regretness or any other feeling that develops within me—or why Lion ignore me?? He doesn't even say Good morning.

He gets out of the bathroom after ten minutes—his face is glowing.

"Good morning, baby." I finally speak—gently.

He glanced at me—shockingly, "When you enter the room, I don't notice."

My face became paler—but I can't lose my cool, I smile—a fake one.

"I just enter when you are showering baby." 

"Okay~" He sat on the bed—smiling continuously.

"Lion, why are you happy… something happened—yesterday you were—" He cut me in the middle.

"It's none of your business." He declared with a serious expression.

"Hm… baby I am just asking as your mistress." I whisper again—my fake smile falling.

"Oh—stop, we are not public… stop saying to me baby." He mumbled.

"I know but—" my voice is barely audible.

"Stop it!!! Stop arguing about useless things." He glared at me.

I retreat, nod; Without any argument more because our relationship is too strange… or we are not even…

After two or three hours.

I am eating my breakfast—silently.

Lion is sitting in the corner not like other days—he always feeds me but today is different. He just eats his breakfast—without a word.

Then Minato enters the dining area and cooks his own breakfast—without any word he start eating while watching his mobile—ignoring us like we don't even exist.

I glance at him—he doesn't even notice. He is lost in the mobile, smiling like last night when he was sober.

I smile, remembering last night's encounter with him. Like—

Sound—i was alone sitting there—he got to refrigerator—pastry—grab him—fall—i caught him by waist—cake fall—teary eyes—hehehe…Push me—unbalance—fall i was on top of him—his tears were streaming warmly—Television—movie—feed him—sleep in my lap—then I lick him…on

My face became red—i pinch myself in my hand, "What are you thinking." I mumble to myself.

Lion noticed me. He looked at me with confusion, "Huh…??" like trying to say what are you mumbling—without making any noise.

I cross my arms in denial means nothing—smiling without any reason.

I nod—I notice he is also staring at Minato—smiling—I feel jealous as to why he is smiling at him today so much.

He just stared at Minato with bright eyes—like he found what he always wanted.

Then Minato mumbled in his laughter, then;

I also joined him and just stared at Minato.

His hands moving fast and eating too—quickly until I realized.

Suddenly Minato stands, he goes toward the sink; He finishes his breakfast. He ran to his room and left without any words.

Then I also left because I needed to go shopping—without any reason, I just wanted to walk in peace.

(Today's Lion office is closed—for no reason.

After the night incident when he saw Minato and Shimizu together his jealousy was on next level but something changed when he slept—he stopped his silly feelings and thought peacefully.)

So I sleep after Toka forces me to walk and then go with him. 

I don't want to make more arguments with Toka… I think I shut myself out during the whole journey. When we return home. 

I go to my room and sleep… in the dream I saw…
