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

Chapter 416 My one and only reques

A month later, Little Shin and Zaki were seen practicing in the courtyard. Zaki actually volunteered to teach little Shin the basic of martial art to make his body stronger.

"Uncle, why is auntie Hinari not visiting us anymore?" Little Shin asked by the time they took a break and Zaki who was busy helping little Shin changed his wet shirt suddenly paused for a moment.

He looked at little Shin for a while before he again continued what he was doing.

"She’s busy. Don’t worry, she will visit you once she’s free." He replied but the little guy seemed to be unsatisfied with Zaki’s answer.

"Uncle, why don’t you invite her to come? Also, why are you only staying here? I mean I’m okay with big brother Kaide to teach me and guard me, so you don’t have to do stay here." Little Shin said when Zaki narrowed his eyes as he looked at him before he flicked little Shin’s forehead.

"You... are you saying you want Kaide more than I? Did you forget that I am the one who was babysitting you ever since you were born?"

"I--- it’s not like that. Uncle, you’re my third most favorite person, I want you to teach me how to fight but..." Somehow, upon hearing what the little sweet guy said, Zaki’s expression went gentle.

However, when Zaki heard the next words he said, he couldn’t even say a word.

"But... I think I just got tired of your face now. You’ve been with me every day in the house and in school. I think you shouldn’t spend all your time with me. I mean, look... aren’t you jealous with mommy and daddy? And don’t you miss auntie too? You don’t have to worry about my safety because I’m a big boy now. Also, I can just ask you to teach me your superb skill once I grow a bit more. So, what I’m saying is... go and visit auntie and bring her home."

Zaki was speechless for a long while, he couldn’t believe that this little guy was telling him these things. He was just so like his father that Zaki could only flick his forehead again before he stood and ruffled his hair hard.

"You told me I’m your third most favorite but you easily got tired of my face? Little Shin, are you kidding me?" Zaki replied with a raised brow, purposely dodging the main issue and little Shin puffed his cheeks.

"Uncle, I know you know what I meant by saying that!" the little guy retorted but Zaki just dropped a towel on his head covering little Shin’s face.

"Let’s go." Zaki then said and he started walking away, making the little even more frustrated.

"Uncle! You’re so stubborn!" he yelled before he ran passed him, looking mad as he entered the house without waiting for Zaki.

At that moment, Zaki simply stood there looking at the door where little Shin entered with an indifferent expression. He clenched the towel in his hand and he was about to move when he felt Sei’s presence.

"It’s rare for little Shin to get mad at you, what did you do?" Sei asked as soon as he stepped out of the door when Zaki just replied back casually.

"He’s just throwing tantrum. So? Why are you here?" He replied and Sei leaned on the door frame, looking at him as if he’s observing him.

"Doctor Su called me." Sei said and Zaki sighed.

"That damn old man! Even though I threatened him." He muttered to himself when Sei glared at him.

"I’m going with you today."

"You don’t have to, Sei. I’m not a ki---"

"Shut up and let’s go."

"Tch! You’re stubborn."

...

Red City Hospital...

Zaki was changing from his hospital clothes to casual clothes as Sei was speaking ever so seriously with the doctor. Sei’s face slowly darkened as he heard the doctor explaining the situation. He didn’t like the news he was given at all. He expected something like this would happen but he didn’t think it would be so soon. His eyes were brimming with anger as he clenched his fist tightly.

After the doctor left, Zaki stood up and he nonchalantly cracked his neck before he turned to Sei.

"Off we go, then." Zaki said. He seemed to already be back to his usual jolly and happy-go-lucky self, as if there was nothing wrong at all.

Seeing how carefree Zaki was, Sei’s face turned even uglier as he glared at him.

"Stop glaring at me. Didn’t I tell you not to come? You’re treating me like a kid, Sei."

"Zaki... how long are you planning on hiding this from her?" Sei asked with a firm and serious tone and Zaki fell silent. His brows then furrowed like he was trying to find the solution to a really complicated puzzle. After a while, he eventually looked up, looking like he had figured out the answer, although this was already what he decided since long time ago.

"Sei... my one and only request is still the same... Don’t tell anyone about this. I want this to just stay between me and you alone." He said with a firm tone and eyes filled with unbreakable will, causing Sei to only crease his brows hard as he looked at him.
