Kowtow

It was really, really a long day, running all day long, ZouMi closed her eyes tiredly. A similar fragrance filled her nose, her tired eyes moved, but her hands moved faster, and held his neck tightly. As her usual alert habit, it wasn't uncommon for her to not detect his presence when he entered, but she didn't have the energy to deal with anyone, and thus she thought he would leave after seeing her asleep.

But, little did she though, he would come near her, she didn't know what he wanted to do, but she won't let that happen.

ZouMi was sure, that with the power she was holding his neck, if she applied a little more force, or he struggled, she can snap his neck.

To her surprise, the person didn't move, and neither was he nervous, he was squatting down, and his body was closer to hers.

"Ain't you afraid, that I can snap your neck?"

His heart full laugh was her answer, "I believe in you." ZouMi's eyes opened at his words.
