What should I say? Should I be honest and say that I got punished? But what if he got mad that I just lied? As I gulped dryly, he opened his mouth again, “No, it’s already done. That’s not the point.”

 

What?

 

He got me off his lap and picked up the clothing he had taken off. He put it on again and walked away….his body plopped on one side of the bed.

 

He didn’t say anything or do anything. He was just lying down with one arm across his forehead in silence, but I was scared to talk to him because of the unusual atmosphere.

 

Looking at the obvious outline of the man, a hint of irritation evident on my face, a cloud of gloom hung over me.

 

Damn it. I totally messed up again. My life and death depends on this, so what should I do now? I knew it was going too smoothly! I’m sure he was just leading me on!!

 

No, I couldn’t afford to be branded as a liar anymore.

 

I crept up on my knees and curled up next to him.

 

“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to hide it. I was so embarrassed that I didn’t know what to say… “

 

“What?”

 

“I-I was so embarrassed to tell you that I was a stupid troublemaker… Hic, I’ll never do it again. I’m so hopeless. I was wrong. Next time, just, hic, just, hit me!”

 

Hiccups kept coming out, so like before, I tried to stuff my fingers in my mouth and hold my tongue, but he suddenly grabbed my hand. I raised my head in surprise.

“Stop talking.”

 

Hic…?”

 

“I told you it wasn’t like that.”

 

His burning eyes were fixed on me. As I closed my mouth with a flinch, Izek let out a sigh.

 

“Come here.”

 

I was dragged and laid down as soon as he grabbed me.

 

It felt very strange to lie down with my head resting on his shoulder, grasping his iron-like forearm.

 

The heavy silence was disturbing.

What was this?

 

When I lifted my head, his eyes were busy taking me in.

Oh, our eyes met.

 

“I don’t know why you stop trying to breathe every time. Does that stop you from hiccuping?”

 

“I, hic, I thought you might have misunderstood me as a liar.”

 

“I hate lying very much.”
