2021-08-03 01:28:25- But he's old ...
- Shut up Diego, he's not even old enough to be my father- I say as I help him get up.
- He is our teacher ...
- He hasn't been for a long time and that's why I trust him too and want to give him a chance- I take Travis's arm and wrap him around my shoulder so he leans against me as we head back to Ichiraku.
- Jane ...
- Diego - this time it is Luisa's soft voice that stops him.
I turned my head back fast enough to see Diego still looking at me puzzled with Luisa lightly touching her arm looking at him pleadingly. I gave him one last smile, tightened my hug around Travis's waist, and didn't look back.

I look at Alia, this is the third time she's come up to Travis and asks if she needs anything but I know exactly what that little sentence means, that waitress is way too attentive to him.
Ok ... she breathes and she counts to 10 ...
What that idiot wants to say is: Travis do you need me? Because if you want it, I'll happily do whatever, since I met you many years ago and now I'm completely in love with you, even though I don't know anything about you and I have nothing in common with you, I just want to get into your pants because you're so damn sexy ... hehe blush and batting eyelashes ... bitch!
CRACK!
Ugh ... and I just broke my third pair of chopsticks today ...
- Jane, are you okay? - Travis looks at me concerned while I check that I have not managed to stick a splinter again.
- I'm fine - I smile unconvincingly.
- Good...
- More napkins? - Alia continues her conversation with Travis.
She counts to 10... One ...
- No thanks Alia I have many.
- You're sure? There are many out there.
She stops smiling at him incessantly bitch ... Two ...
- I'm fine.
- Well you can never have enough napkins ...
He's not interested, can't you see that? ... Three ...
- What about the soy sauce? You can never have enough!
- Um, actually if you put too much sauce, won't the soup make salty?
He's not biting your idiot hook, so why don't you take a spatula and shove it into your ... Four ...
- You are very right, you are so smart!
- Um… Thank you?
Otherwise, I'll happily push the spatula for you ... five.
- How about a little more ...
That's right, I've had enough! I shamelessly put my hands over Travis's and squeeze them a little.
- So Travis, where exactly are you planning to take me on this little date? - At my emphasis on the word quote, Alia's smiling face to my deep pleasure falls immediately.
- Are you on a date with her? But isn't she a little young? - she asks, completely ignoring me and speaking only to Travis.
- He and I agree that our age difference doesn't matter much- I answer confidently.
- But isn't your student or something? - She keeps talking only to him.
- That was a long time ago and our current boss has been my teacher for a long time- I narrow my eyes towards her.
- But...
- Come on Travis you can't eat your ramen as fast as you usually do. You can get an ulcer if you always rush to eat that way.
- Seriously?
- I'm also a doctor Travis, I know this kind of thing and from the way you eat just to hurry, I know that you are not chewing your food properly. You are supposed to put your eating utensils down after each bite to make sure you are chewing your food well.
- Thanks for the advice mom.
- Well, don't listen to me, just don't ask me for help when you enter the hospital with a broken ulcer one of these days.
- All this just to leave now?
- I just want to repeat those 2 kisses you gave me before coming here.
I hear Alia give a little squeak and Diego gasped.
- Twice? But I only saw him kiss her once ... when he did ... —said Diego.
But I ignored them both.
- Well I'll do it, but not here.
- Why not?
- Because ... there are other people around, last night it was a coincidence, when I kissed you like that, I want it to be for you and only for you.
Another little shriek from Alia, another gasp from Diego, Luisa, and Teo gives a little Oh!
- That's ... romantic Travis.
- I'm very romantic, so hurry up and finish your ramen so I can show you how much I am.
- You're going to make me get an ulcer.
- I'm going to make you do more than that once I do what I'm thinking.
- THAT?! - Alia, Diego, Teo and I say at the same time.
Luisa said nothing and just blushed profusely.
- Oh sorry, I didn't mean to say that part out loud- Travis blushes and scratches the back of his neck nervously, despite my warnings he turns around on his stool in front of us all to face the street with the convenient banners placed from Ichiraku is ready to eat and in less than a minute his bowl is empty.
I frowned disapprovingly at him and made him wait patiently while he ate properly and was satisfied after 10 minutes.
- So where are we going? - I ask wiping my mouth with my napkin.
Travis takes his napkin and to my and the others' surprise rubs it on the corner of my mouth to wipe away anything I miss.
- I'm thinking of a nice dark cinema- He smiles at me with his bright eyes and a hint of desire in him.
- Perfect - I smile back and take his hand as he helps me off the stool.
Travis surprises us all again by paying for our meals and he doesn't let go of my hand even after he's got me back on my feet and so we leave Ichiraku. I don't look back, I don't have to, I know everyone's gaping at us.
"Love is not jealous, but if there is no jealousy then there is no love"
Why does that phrase repeat itself over and over in my head? Therefore I was jealous, it does not mean that I am in love ... am I in love? No… He was just trying to let Alia know her place right?
Travis lets go of my hand only to wrap his arm around my shoulders and gently kiss my head, I find myself laying comfortably in his embrace and smiling stupidly to the movies.
What is happening to me?

- Why do all the tall people always sit in front of me? They have all those empty seats and where do you sit? Right in front of me- Rose snorts, crossing her arms in front of her chest in irritation. - I'm sorry Rose I didn't see you there, I'll change with Jane if you want. - Captain? - Rose exclaims, matching her voice with the silhouette of her in front of her. - Hello! - he answers with a happy crease of eyes. - Are you on a date? - Rose says smiling from ear to ear with her eyes shining towards us. - Yes, we are- I say with a slight edge in my voice, daring Rose to say something bad about it, but to my surprise, she answers very enthusiastically. - Ha! I knew it! After what happened last night and that private chat between the two of you this morning I imagined it. Good for you! At that moment I remember because she is my best friend, I return her smile and change my seat with Travis, he and I have just sat down again when

- Uhg well ... good luck to you- he says placing a hand on Travis's shoulder making a quick outing with his girlfriend.- You didn't mean to say that, did you? - He asks, rubbing the back of his neck with discomfort.- And why wouldn't I? Just because we are on a date and especially because we are together I hope you treat me like a lady, I have let you slip a lot of things for now, but if you do something that I do not want ...- Jeez Jane! You could shame the scared face Luis is wearing!- Well, I learned a few things from him while you were trapped in the hospital.- Like what? - His voice suddenly darkens.- That? Is the great Captain Travis jealous?- How did you learn Jane?- he repeats without stopping looking at me very seriously.- The scared face? - I respond weakly.- I hope it's just that- he murmurs before placing his hand possessively around my waist and pulling me closer to him.- Well ...

As an agent, you are taught to be aware. Take care of your surroundings, be aware of the people around you, and any suspicious behavior. Being careful could save your life, but what if it's not a life or death situation? What if you become fully aware of someone you have never seen otherwise before? What does it mean then?"Jane are you listening to me?""Sorry boss""You seem distracted, why do you keep looking at the door?"Now I feel not only Blanca's eyes on me but also Diego and Luis's eyes."I was wondering if Captain Travis would join us for this mission," I said trying to sound as unpleasant as possible, but my face felt hot first from being caught staring at the door and now from what I said."If he will be, he's late as usual," Blanca says with a look of exasperation in her eyes."Ray!" I said without thinkingBlanca quickly raises an eyebrow at me just like Diego and Luis, she shit her ... If even Diego of all people

The four of us made our way through the busy streets towards the main gates of the village. Diego always showing his enthusiasm walks several steps ahead of us. Travis and I took a more leisurely pace enjoying the sky and fresh January air.Nothing beats the thrill of going on an adventure, you can love your home and consider it the place you will always want to be, miss it and long for it once you are gone, but there is something about going on an adventure that makes the adrenaline rush through your veins, cheering you up and making you feel euphoric and alive, that's why I understand Diego's feeling so I decide to enjoy the emotion a little more.Don't get me wrong, I love my job at the hospital as a doctor, but nothing is better than the job I was born for and raised for which is being an agent, going on missions, and traveling around the world. be eliminated on the battlefield or the road ... but you can't have it all right?During all the activities going

For 23 years that I have lived in the country, I had not laid eyes on the famous governor's house except in textbooks and postcards, the irony is that it was easily within my reach, it was just another of those things that I took for granted because I knew it would always be there."Wow" Diego and I say with amazement.Travis and Luis just smile in a pleasant silence indicating that at least they have been here before. They let us gape for a couple more minutes before they ushered us forward once more.At the gates of the palace because a normal house is not, the guards greet us, somehow they seem much more imposing than us, and yet we are the elite agents of the country. Maybe it's the 10-foot stick they hold in their hands that seems ready to rip our heads off or maybe it's their helmet that reminds me of a cobra when its neck opens to bite or all those pads that they wear, their clothes remind me of football players ready to hit the ground, they look ready to

Somehow exploring the world and experiencing new things seems more special when you finally have someone to share it with.When Albert left and then Diego, I had to learn to be self-sufficient, being in Blanca's tutelage only reinforced that need. She after all has to do with female power and that implies being able to take care of herself so I have no qualms about doing things on my own. I live alone, I earn my own money, I go where I please and I don't need anyone but myself, and yet with all my independence I can't help but link my arm through Travis's now and lean my head against his shoulder and feel grateful for their company as we lazily walk through the castle grounds.As you can see, there is something more powerful than independence and it is called love. It's not just about the sky looking bluer, the grass looking greener, and the bird songs sounding sweeter than ever. Finally, being with someone you know that you are destined to make you forget what lonelin

I look at Diego and he is sharing a story about one of our missions with Madame Shiji who is laughing uncontrollably in front of the table, he seems to like it quite a bit.Being a friend of the governor's wife is not a bad connection when you are trying to be head of an entire department of elite agents, but I know that Diego's friendship has nothing to do with political gain, his friendship is genuine, that it's the only way he knows how to sneak in between people. That is why I am sure that he is going to be our next boss, because he is faithful and true, a trustworthy man. If only the other leaders were like this, the history of the military and the official world would be different.Luis sits next to Diego laughing and adding some extra details to the story from time to time, of all of us he is probably the most normal leaving aside that he was kidnapped and turned into a laboratory rat when he was a child.At the foot of the table,, Gabriela sits in silenc

5 ... 4 ... 3 ... 2 ... 1. "Now you can kiss the bride!" Despite all the noises from the New Year's party, all the noise is surprisingly muffled and distant, as if you hear it underwater. "Happy New Year, Mrs. Baker" he says smiling at me happily, her voice comes down from her and just for me. "Happy New Year," I say in a low voice back, returning the smile. And so we both kiss for the first time as husband and wife. When Travis and I finally break up and face people once again everyone is still yelling and clapping at us, even the ones who disapproved of our relationship at first. Yes, we have come a long way since this year, no… last year. Last year, Travis's kiss was a huge surprise to everyone, including me, so it is only appropriate to celebrate this New Year, our first anniversary, with another surprise ... a wedding. A week ago... After tearing the wrapping paper off my last Christmas present and

In winter, the town becomes a place where the branches of the trees were thrown all over the streets due to the snow. Our town looks like a small fortress covered and hidden by snow but… How else could we obtain our lush vegetation if not for the large amounts of water we receive during the spring rains and winter snow? And now that all the Christmas presents have been opened, it's not surprising to see most of the villagers sledding or building snowmen or snowballs, and generally just enjoying what little is left of this day. of Christmas. However, Travis and I deviated from the larger crowds, opting to stay in the quiet Training Ground 3. Training ground 3 is also completely transformed in winter, it has been changed from a thick and herbaceous field to a barren one surrounded by the aforementioned leafless trees, its skeleton trunks and branches are now gray instead of its color. normal earthy brown. The training ground looks like a Christmas card with its virgin

I look back at Travis thinking that all men are dense even the ones who are supposed to be geniuses. On the other hand, he seems sincere and I can't expect him to read my mind, nor do I expect him to, but seriously, he can figure out how to take down an entire organization of S-class criminals, but he can't figure this out? He's like the guy who can get sports stats or figure out how to make complicated technology work, but can't he figure it out for himself when he's a complete Neanderthal? Idiots, most of them! "The reason I got angry was that I asked you to take me seriously, but you made a joke and not only that, but the joke you made me think that all you are looking for is sex" "Oh, I see," he says in understanding. "Well, what do you know? Neanderthals can understand the obvious" " But Jane, if all she wanted was sex, then she would be running around town sleeping with anything that walks, but I don't want to. What I do want is to have the pers

In the darkness of the room lit only by the pale moonlight, I notice a sad face looking at me from across the room. He always had such a sad face. Then again, that's exactly what made me approach him when I was younger, which made him my favorite above all the rest. When he was happy, I wanted to cheer him up, and when he was sad like I am now ... "I know exactly how you feel," I murmur, lifting Bunny off the dusty shelf and hugging him tightly to my chest. Dark, wet spots are beginning to appear on top of his shaggy head, but he's used to it by now. He just soaks them through, absorbing the tears until they finally dry and I feel better again. He was always a comfort to me, which only makes me feel even more guilty for abandoning him, for putting him aside because I thought he was too old for him, at least I didn't throw it away. In truth, you can never get over what makes you feel safe. Even the toughest of us, the ones who refuse to admit we do suc

Another set of high-pitched screams emanate from the apartment hallway. I roll my eyes and shake my head before heading to the front door and poking my head through it. "Travis," I say in exasperation. "That?" he asks innocently. "Haven't you had enough?" "But they like it!" The terrified look in the children's eyes when they look over their shoulders and run away from us (or should I say Travis) They say otherwise, but what can I do? Its Halloween. Kids don't want to be scared and it's not like Travis stops them from taking the candy before he scares them. The huge orange plastic bowl with printed bats flying around its rim is surprisingly nearly empty, meaning either our candy is better than the neighbors' or he's been very, very generous in delivering the treats. Seeing as things rarely happen for a single reason, I guess it's a bit of both. "Okay, but once the bowl is empty, that's it, okay?" Travis gives me a happy

Seeing how we have repositioned ourselves and back to where we left off, Travis Number Two stands very close to me so that I can continue right where he also left off, holding my hair to continue kissing and sucking on the back, the sides of my neck and the curves of my shoulders.I'm getting used to this extravagance of kisses when I feel two pairs of hands on me, one pair rubbing up and down my sides while the other pair gently glide up and down my bare arms, and while both touches are relatively innocent. , the double sensation is turning me on much faster than if it had been just a pair of hands.And then the hands start to wander and the touches are less and less innocent. A pair of hands rub up and down the outside of my thighs, causing my already short skirt to sit a little higher with each stroke. Meanwhile, another pair of hands is slowly beginning to unzip the back of my dress. It's Travis Number Two, and as he slowly reveals every inch of my bareback, he pla

"Do you want me to do it?" I ask hysterically.Travis looks like she's in fear for his life, as she should be. I mean, I knew the man was perverted but I just didn't realize how much."No, Jane! You're not going to do it! Oh, does not matter! I knew it was too weird! I knew I should never have asked you! You're so sweet here, making me dinner and dressing up for me and I screwed it all up by making that suggestion. Very sorry. Please forgive me and forget that I ever asked"I look at Travis with a pounding heart, but not for the reason he thinks. I'm not mad, I'm actually ... excited."Travis, calm down! I didn't say I wasn't going to do it. I just want to clarify what exactly you want us to do"Now he seems completely bewildered as if he had just said to her: Yes, Travis… Santa Claus is real."Really?""Yes, I will do it"And just as the words leave my mouth, I'm just as surprised as he is by my willingness to do so.

Would it be wrong for me to mention to Travis that his birthday used to be the same day that Japan and elite countries used to celebrate Respect for Aging Day? I think so. Also, he is angry at all the jokes that he has received and continues to receive for being with someone much younger than him.However, I must admit that even some jokes are quite funny, like having a parent-teacher conference when we went to see my parents. I mean, what can you do? You can get mad and hit the ground all the time (I tried for a while until Blanca threatened to remove the town repair costs from my paycheck) or access the jokes on a case-by-case basis and take them from there. Seeing how the majority of the people have learned to accept or ignore us.It's hard to believe that Travis is almost 35 today, 34 to be exact and here I am barely 24 years old. However, it is easy to put the age difference aside, when the man you are with appears to be at the same level of maturity as you and wh

Applause from everyone.We both sit on the grass to watch the next dancer take the stage, a young woman who, like me, is dressed in a traditional kimono, but unlike me, this girl has strong and dramatic makeup. Her face and neck are so dusty that she appears white as a ghost and her lips are painted a bright shade of red. The stark contrast between the white, red, and jet black of her hair tied up in a bun makes her look not human at all, more like a porcelain doll placed on invisible strings by a puppeteer. Even her movements are limited, like those of a puppet whose joints can only move so far in any direction.This is Kyomai's dance.It's like a slow interpretive dance with various poses and hand gestures that tell a story. It is the opposite pole of the dance that preceded it, the dance of Odori.As the night darkens, everything begins to calm down and the sakura trees are lit up with paper lanterns, giving the hanami experience a different vibe, one
