Chapter 257 Truth or dare
Hugging his wife tightly in his embrace as they both continued swaying slowly, Sei bent and spoke softly near her ears.
"Davi... I’m leaving tomorrow." He said. His voice was hoarse and sad but for some reason, Davi could feel a strange intensity with his tone.
She pulled away to look at his face when to her surprise, Sei’s eyes were brimming with determination and fighting spirit. Something that Davi never saw in him before. Not knowing that it was the same look she gave him last night when she swore not to give up on him.
"Mm. I know. Just as I’ve said, I will wait for you no matter how long it takes." She replied and Sei just embraced her tightly again.
"When I come back, I promise I will take you out no matter where you want to go. Not hiding anymore. We will freely roam around just like those couples in the park." He uttered and Davi couldn’t help but tear up. She can’t deny that she was wishing she could take him out freely. She has lots of things she wanted to do with him outside like what normal couples do that just by imagining them made her want to cry. However, what made her teared was the fact that Sei seemed to be envious on the freedom other people has.
That moment, she could only gripped him tightly. She was aware about his story and she was praying and wishing every single day for him to be finally freed. Thinking about the years he spent in the darkness, being caged without freedom made her heart aches so bad.
"Mm. I believe you can settle everything soon. When you come back, I will bring you to the beach, to the market, to the mall, to the street, everywhere. We could even go to Mt. Everest." She said as she chuckled before she tiptoed and held his face.
"I believe in you Sei." She continued and she kissed him.
...
After their romantic date, the two then entered the house. Knowing that Sei was leaving tomorrow, Davi don’t want to sleep yet. She wanted to stay with him, look at him, and hold him as long as there’s still time.
She leads him towards the longue and they were about to sit in the sofa when Davi remembered the small box that Hinari gave her before she left. She said that it was a sweet game for couple and told her to play it with her husband when they’re alone at night.
"Okay, we’re going to play a game. There’s this game my friend gave me." Davi said and they both went upstairs to get the box. They then sat on the couch near the window while Davi opened the small box Hinari gave her. The box was filled with rolled piece of papers. There was a note on top of it so Davi took it. She opened it and the words, ’Truth or Dare Rules’ was written on top of it.
Davi’s brows creased a little the moment she realized it was actually a truth or dare game. She played it once before in high school and she thought it wasn’t fun at all, but since she already asked Sei to play it, she could only shrug. Not knowing that Hinari’s purpose in preparing that game for her was the complete opposite of the kind of game she has in mind.
"Do you know how to play this?" She then asked and Sei shook his head.
"You can teach me, I will learn it in no time." He replied so Davi immediately gave him the note.
[Rule #1. Pick one rolled piece of paper in the box and read the question to your partner. If your partner says ’truth’ he/she will answer the question truthfully, if he/she says ’dare’, flip the paper and read to him/her the dare written at the back. Do it alternately.
Rule #2. You cannot change a dare or truth once selected.
Rule #3. Do not lie when you choose the truth.
Rule #4. No matter how embarrassing the dare was, you have to play it. No excuses.]
Upon reading the note, Sei looked at Davi.
"Any question?" She asked and the man shook his head.
"Okay then, let’s start. Hmm, who’s first? Okay let’s have rock-paper-scissor, the winner will read first." She continued and without a warning, she raised her hand and swayed it.
"Paper, rock, scissor!" she said and the confused man who never did a paper-rock-scissor before just raised his hand opened. Of course, Davi who was expert in it won against him as she chuckled because of his expression.
She then picked a rolled piece of paper and opened it.
"Okay, here’s the question Sei. What is your partner’s most... annoying habit?" Davi asked as she anticipated Sei’s answer.
"Truth. None." He answered and Davi’s shoulders dropped.
"Er... are you sure I don’t have annoying habit? Haru and Hinari told me lots of it though." She said when Sei spoke.
"I’m not lying. Your habits are not annoying at all." He said, his eyes serious and sincere and Davi could only cough and blush with his sweet words. "O-okay then, it’s your turn to pick one."
Sei then picked another roll of paper but instead of reading it right away, he paused for a while.
"Hm? What’s wrong?" she asked but Sei just cleared his throat before he began reading it.
"What sexual position do you love the most?" he asked and a long silence passed before Davi could react. She grabbed his hand to check if what he read was really written and she was shocked.
’H-hinari... What kind of question is that?!’ she yelled within her as her face started burning red. After a while, seeing Sei quietly waiting for her answer, Davi uttered the word "Dare".
Sei then flipped the paper and once again, he fell silent for a while.
"Bite your partner’s lower lip." He said and Davi who was still blazing red could only do the dare. She then moved closer to him and bit his lower lip as quick as she could.
"My turn." She immediately said the moment she let go of his lips and she picked another paper.
"If you could fix one body part of your partner, which would it be? If your answer is none and I don’t know, do the dare." She said and Sei who had a sure ’none’ answer could only say "Dare".
"K-kiss your favorite part of your partner." Davi uttered as she turned red again when Sei suddenly looked troubled.
"But... I like every part of you." He said and Davi coughed.
"J-just choose one." She immediately retorted and Sei seemed to begin thinking hard. After a while, he moved closer to her and his lips slowly landed on her eyes.
That moment, Davi could feel his warm lips gently kissing her eyes and she felt her heart fluttering like crazy. Thankfully, Sei pulled back and his words made Davi snapped.
"Describe your first kiss with your partner." He asked and Davi fell silent again before saying "Dare". Thinking that the dare might be less embarrassing than describing their first kiss.
"T-take off your partner’s shirt... u-sing your teeth." Sei stammered as he reads while Davi choked.
