'' 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
Later that day, Lucy was working seriously as she couldn't do it previously. Robin came into the door with a knock. The room was dimly lit making the atmosphere look dim and dull. She hardly kept any lights on for her to see. Or rather she wanted to stay in the dark where she felt comfortable.He went ahead and opened the window to let the light come inside. The sunset was looking really beautiful there.'' Want to go to the rooftop to see the sunset?'' he blurted out without thinking.She stared at the window, then replied,'' Sure.''He thought she was going to say no but she didn't say that at all.They both went to the rooftop Christina was about to call out to them, but then Noir placed her hand on her shoulder from behind.'' Don't let them stay alone, for now,'' Noir advised her. '' But she- I mean they-''.They left by then. Going to the rooftop, the cold wind passed by her cheeks
Later that night, Lucy was done with her project. She had to finish it by the night or else they won't be able to present the deal to Ms.Shouko tomorrow in the morning. After that, they will catch the flight at night to leave for their home country. She yawned and stretched out her arms because of the work that she had to do all day. Robin was sleeping in their room. He had been waiting for her to go to sleep but fell asleep while waiting for her. Lucy looked at the screen happily seeing all the documents all arranged together. '' With this, we will be done with the project and the business tour will be over. And then we will go back to our regular lives again.'' '' Can't believe it's gonna be so early that everything in our life will be resolved. There's nothing more in life for me to ask other than seeing myself as a
Lucy came closer to Christina, then replied with her head held high, ‘’ I don’t know what he feels about me or you. But the only answer to the question that you asked me is…..this is the reason you are his admirer and I’m his wife. If you are done talking, then Goodnight. I have more things to attend to other than just this.’’‘’ Talk to you later.’’Lucy walked away out of the room. Noir hides behind the pillar so that she won’t be able to see her.Christina stood there, with her clenched fists. She threw away the cup on the floor, breaking it in the attempt.‘’ Miss Lucy Campbell, you are not a simple person as I have thought. I’ll kick you out of the life of Robin no matter what.’’‘’ No one shall interfere between us. No one shall. Robin is mine, I’ll corrupt his heart so much that he’ll only feel nothing
‘’ Robin,’’ Christina called, after closing the door behind her.‘’ Who?’’ he glanced back to see his friend standing. But something was off about her behavior and expressions.Her gaze was straight, and her lips were firmly sealed.‘’ What’s wrong?’’ Robin asked, putting down the other papers which he had in his hands onto the table, he walked closer to her.‘’ Forgive me for this, I may do something which you won’t like. Will, you still let me do it?’’ she looked at him with straight eyes.They were unwavering and had contained some kind of a passion in them.‘’ What do you mean by that?’’ he asked.‘’ I mean…this….’’ She locked the door.Then approached Robin slowly, he retreated his steps back in response to this.The more he backed away, the more sh
Lucy walked through the office corridor with the files in her hands, walking with a proud face and expression.She was much happy today, as something good is going to happen today. After signing the deal, she’s going to be the one who’s going to take the foreigner client away among her siblings. And that is going to give her the most points out of all, making her to take over the business and the property away.In a while she reached the office of Mrs. Shouko.She stood in front of the office with a smiling face.“After this, everything will be over. My sufferings and everything, will come to an end.”“I’m coming in,” she said, opening the door.What she found was, that Kate and Mary were sitting in the middle of the room with all the papers in their hands.Inside the room was sitting Julia, and Olivia, and Hughes and Gray on the other side of the room.Julia and Olivia wore a smirk ove
