When they were back to their room, Lucy closed the door behind her and went to take a seat on the bed.
'' I-'' Robin tried to say something. But he was again interrupted. '' Leave me alone for the moment and don't talk to me.''
'' I need to go out with the company we are partnering with within the morning. I don't have anyone to tell that I have a depressed look. Have dinner and go to sleep, I need sleep also.''
'' Alright, What about you? Don't you want to eat?''.
'' Bring some soup later. It will be better.''
Lucy lied down and turned off the lights closing her eyes she tried to sleep. Robin just stood there not being able to say anything.
He left the room and walked up to the rooftop. No one was there so he took a seat by the corner.
The breeze was cold. It felt good to him. The silence and the
Robin was able to recall all the moments that he had spent with Lucy and Christina. They were not all bad memories. Some were good as well. The strange thing is he had never tried to recall them or think how endearing they are.Even though they had spent so much time together, he's still not able to understand what their true nature is like.At last, he was finally able to have his answer. '' I have realised what you are talking about,'' Robin replied to Noir.'' And what's that?''.'' I love both of them the way they are like. Lucy sometimes acts cruel towards me but that's a part of her charm. Christina has stayed with me longer than Lucy did, but she's the best friend I could ever have. I can't imagine her as a lover yet. But whoever could get her has to be one lucky guy on earth.''He was scratching the back of his head feeling embarrassed. '' But she still has room for improvement just like Lucy. Lucy's stil
Pl, It was at the office. Lucy met up with others at the office. Ms.Shouko arrived later. They were waiting at the office entrance. '' I am sorry everyone, I am late,'' said Ms.Shouko getting up from the car.'' Why are you late today?'' asked Olivia to Shouko. '' It's my doggy, she was not letting me leave the house. And I had the call from my brother-in-law and then we talked for a while that's why we were late. Sorry,'' she apologized.'' What will we be doing today?'' Julia asked stepping forward.Shouko took out her phone from her purse. '' I guess,...we can take a tour around the most prosperous cities in London. Then talk about business as well. After that, we will go and have a fancy meal. After that the party. I can't wait to see you also. I have called all the other co-partner companies as well. We will have a nice talk.'''' Shall we take the car or public transportation?'' Shouko asked staring at their faces. Ever
The next moment they stepped into the shop they were surprised by the interior inside it. It looked like a Chinese shop, quite an old one with old walls along with the pictures and everything.But it gave a royal feeling to the Campbell siblings. They were greeted by an old woman at the gateway.'' Welcome to the shop,'' she said with a smile. '' Aunty, I am here again. And look whom I have brought with me,'' Shouko said in a cheerful tone.The old woman was surprised by the number of guests they were having back then.'' Nice to meet you,'' Lucy said with a bow. '' Same here, now, please come inside.''Shouko took off her shoes and went inside. The others did the same and walked inside the shop.The old woman took them to sit on the tatami mat. '' Please sit here,'' she said. '' This is an old place but make yourselves at home.'
After that, the evening passed by.Lucy was back from the office. She was on the elevator when Noir came in. Both of them were not aware of their presence.Only when Noir dropped her phone she saw Lucy there standing by the side of the elevator.'' She's that woman from before. His wife. What's she doing here? Back from the office, I guess. I am glad Christina didn't come here to meet him and I came instead of her.''When she kept her glances at Lucy, she was feeling even smaller from the inside out. Even at this age, she's independent unlike her. She still relies on her parents.'' Is this the reason why he likes her? Must be so. He always admired women who can do everything on her own.'''' I can't even become as much mature as her. What the heck am I doing with my life? What have I done all these years with it? Nothing,
'' A househusband? And what's up with that profession? I mean what do you do exactly?'' asked someone among the crowd.'' Well, normal things. Washing and cleaning, cooking and folding clothes and then take care of my wife also,'' Robin replied with a smile.Shouko herself was surprised by the way he said all of those things proudly. She was trying her best to stop her laughter.Robin himself knew that no one was going to accept those things and would make fun of him. And that's what it turned out in the end.'' This seems like a good profession,'' said one among the crowd. '' Perfect for men called women.''They burst out in laughter saying that. '' Nanny husband.''Everyone was laughing at him. Lucy felt humiliated back then, the way she was lowering her head out of shame, not able to lift her face because of him. Robin was able to understand that very well.Olivia came in to pour oil in the
Julia was getting tired of her bragging. She clicked her tongue and asked Lucy,'' Instead of bragging tell us what's so good about him. We want to know what he can do that the other people who work can't do. Everyone wants to know to tell us.''Lucy moves away from the sight of Robin and grabs onto his hand. ''This man, he can do every household chores properly and what I had learned recently he can do your hair too which others can't. He has many skills which others don't. He knows needle and sewing work as well.'''' Which you can't do. He's good at cooking, the food which he makes can make your day. He has so many skills to count on. So what's wrong if he doesn't go to the office? I can't do chores so he does. We are just doing our duties and living our lives that's all. Now tell me, can you, the man,'' Lucy was pointing to the man earlier.'' Can you do washing and dishes and cooking also? Can you do them properly? Can you fold clothes and
On the way, he talked with Lucy. They talked about the most trivial things in the world but that gave him enough peace.When they were back at the hotel, he closed the door behind him and placed her on the bed gently, and went to change but before she was able to get up from her she held him by the hand.She stopped him from getting up. '' What are you?''. She grabbed his hand on the bed and made him sleep beside her.And then she kept snoring like crazy. He had no choice but to stay there. He also fell asleep before realizing it.In the morning, Lucy saw him sleeping with her. She lets go of his hand right away.'' My head hurts. How much did I drink last night that I can hardly recall anything? Must be my fault.''Robin woke up a while later when Lucy went to sleep. '' Good morning,'' he wished her.&nb
'' Do this, and this..'' he was showing her how to change the shading and all. She was keeping her eyes on him. Lucy was able to see how many dreamy eyes she had which were reflecting his face only.Christina edge closer to Robin's seat. Their shoulders brushed against each other. Lucy stopped her work and kept staring at them. When she received the call from Shouko she was disappointed to say that she hasn't done any work at all.'' Yes, I will get it done by today. Thank you.''When she got back to them again, she saw that Christina was painting with him assisting him. They seemed to be much closer to each other. As if they know themselves since childhood.'' Why am I thinking about the way she's touching him? Why's this image playing in my mind? Why can't I forget about anything at all? Just why? Why's this happening? My chest hurts.'''' Can someone tell me the reason why's this happening with me? Anyhow, I need to work
