chapter 16

*Ring ring*

"Hello?"(Asahi)

"Your awake? I was worried I'd wake you if I called. Have you had your breakfast already?"(Haru)

"I'm having it right now"(Asahi)

"And how is it?"(Haru)

"It's fine"(Haru)

"You just won't admit that my cooking stills are great huh? By the way I'll be home pretty early today. About 1:00, it's one of my employees birthday today and I decided to give everyone the day off to celebrate her birthday"(Haru)

"Aren't you a thoughtful Boss"(Asahi)

"Of course I am I have to take care of the people working for me. After all you can't run a company by yourself"(Haru)

"That's true"(Asahi)

"Oh, I have to go but look forward for tonight I have a surprise for you"(Haru)

"O-okay, have a good day at work"(Asahi)

"Thanks, bye"(Haru)

I wonder what kind of surprise he has for me?(Asahi)

2:00

It seems he's running a little later(Asahi)

3:00

Is he stuck in traffic?(Asahi)

4:00

Still not here yet(Asahi)

9:00

Where is he?!(Asahi)

12:00

It's already this late? I'm getting really worried now. He said he'd be home at 1:00 and it's 12:00 now! When he's working late he usually comes home around 10:35 pm but this late. Did something happened to him?! I'm going to go look for him!(Asahi)

*bang bang!*

Huh?(Asahi)

"Ah!...I'm coming!"(Asahi)

It's Haru he's back! I can smell his pheromones!(Asahi)

opening the door to my bedroom Haru walks in panting out of breath(Asahi)

"Huff...huff...sorry I'm late, things did go as planned at work and I had to-"(Haru)

"Sniffle....sob...."(Asahi)

"Huh? A-Asahi, why are you cry what happened?"(Haru)

"waaahhhh!!"(Asahi)

"Shhh..it's okay, I'm sorry..it's my fault don't cry"(Haru)

Haru hugs me tightly in his arms until I've calmed down(Asahi)

"Have you calmed down now?"(Haru)

I nod(Asahi)

"Look, I got you something"(Haru)

"What is it?"(Asahi)

"Why don't you take a look"(Haru)

Opening the bag, I saw that it was my favorite dessert..."mochi" oh! And fry chicken from my favorite restaurant(Asahi)

"How do you know I liked these?"(Asahi)

"Well I went to visit your mother to ask here to recommend something's you like to eat and she recommended those but since someone only eat mochi from one specific place I had to drive all the way there, she said you also love the fry chicken they sell across the street from the mochi shop so I bought it for you"(Haru)

"You went all the way there just to buy these for me?"(Asahi)

"Yeah, and that's why I ended up coming back late. The line at those two shops were no joke and not to mention the traffic coming back"(Haru)

"Thanks, you know you really didn't have to- Ah! Haru, your hand it's bleeding!!"(Asahi)

"My hand? Oh! It's nothing just a little scratch nothing to worry about"(Haru)

I went to take his hand but he placed it behind him.(Asahi)
