Chapter 26: His Normal Life

Early in the morning, Yuki was the one who got up first. They have used up their three off days, thus it was their first day of returning to work. Due to too much crying and coaxing, both of them fell asleep on the bed. Surprisingly, Ryohei nodded off with his arms wrapping around Yuki and the position maintained until morning. A little movement by Yuki would startle the lover, hence Yuki tried calling the name.

"Dear, my dear," Yuki was more to whispering. He even purposely blew Ryohei's face. "Dear, wake up. We need to work. Especially you since your work outside our house."

The snoring Ryohei fidgeted a bit, then he groaned in displease. "I can't open my eyes," he whined.

Yuki grazed over Ryohei's face and touched the shut eyes. They were swollen, definitely due to Ryohei's weeping all night. Yuki drew himself to them and kissed them softly. "Is it painful, dear?"

"No, it isn't," Ryohei's eyelids trembled while he tried to clear up his vision. "I think my tear ducts are swollen."

Hearing Yuki's chuckle was peaceful to him. Ryohei still could view his fiancee in his sight, however his eyes were so hard to stay open. If only Yuki could see, he might laugh at Ryohei's expression. It must be hilarious.

"Let me go," Yuki pushed Ryohei's arms from cuddling him, "I need to make our breakfast."

"I'm going to miss you," while unwrapping his arms, Ryohei pouted and watched Yuki neatening himself including the hair. "Please don't too forceful on yourself. You must be tired from our journey yesterday."

Yuki snorted while waddling to the kitchen, "Are you talking to yourself, my dear?"

The weather was really nice, contradicting to Ryohei's facial. Yuki apologized for not being able to ease the swells, yet Ryohei told him to just ignore it. It could not be helped since it took Yuki hours to persuade Ryohei last night. The persuasion stopped for real just because Ryohei fell asleep.

Yuki was closing the door after bidding Ryohei goodbye when his smartphone was ringing. He carefully fetched it on the table in the living room - there was where Ryohei would leave the phone while he went to work, so Yuki did not have to scramble everywhere just to find it.

"Hello? Oh, Takizawa-san?"

His hand shook a little. Even though he has stopped meeting his perverted boss, he was still afraid of that Takizawa man even through phone calls. He tried to maintain professionalism as Takizawa was the one providing him a job.

"Yes, I've received the email, yet I haven't checked it thoroughly."

No matter how far he ran away from that Takizawa man, he was still traumatized. He still remembered how hellish his previous job was, especially after they have known each other. Takizawa was specifically rich amongst the regular of that bar, hence he always booked Yuki for a whole week to serve him alone. Yuki had no choice but to obey since he would get paid later.

"How long do you provide for this assignment?" Yuki touched over the table to find his laptop. It was also put by Ryohei to avoid the blind from randomly search its location.

Yuki never divulged the identity of his boss to Ryohei. Deep inside, he really wanted to, but he resisted because he did not find it that important. He has left that dark world long time ago, and he did not consider of redoing even when Takizawa repeatedly offered him a large sum of money just to serve him as his prostitute. Therefore, he should not recall his bad past, plus Ryohei did not seem to ask more about it.

"Thank you for your consideration, Takizawa-san."

That Takizawa man hung up the call. Yuki quickly put the phone back onto the table and crouched on the couch. His whole body was still trembling, and he was working hard to lessen the shaking. He has already switched on his laptop, and he stood by the email as stated in the conversation in his phone. The only thing he should do was to begin editing the assignment Takizawa has delivered to him.

"All right, let's get started!" Yuki cheered to himself.

He could not ask for more. Ryohei really treasured and pampered him too much that he sometimes felt bad for doing less than his lover. All he could do was to stay by Ryohei's side no matter how harsh the trial would be. Ryohei has always been kind and appreciative, hence Yuki did not find any other reason to leave him.

Ryohei was his only lover. He truly did not need other people to love him - even his family. They were the one disregarding him. They called him a weirdo, monster, etc, just because he was an intersex who was able to choose either a man or a woman depending on his tendency. It was not a gift he asked for, however he was blessed by a very faithful lover like Ryohei.

Therefore, he could not ask for more.

Pregnancy? He never thought of it all these while. Ever since he began selling his body, he discovered he would not get pregnant. That was the main purpose of his clients finding him - to fulfill their sexual lust without getting consequence upon that. He once did a medical check up, finding out he had a womb. But it did not function like girls', hence it should be no problem for both sides.

Yuki patted his belly. He could not imagine how he would look like if he had a baby bump. He was not the type to be obsessed of body shape, fat, body weight, and et cetera. Plus, he was blind - he could not even envision his current appearance. Each time he asked Ryohei about it, the latter would always praise his beauty.

Yuki patted his belly again. He just realized one thing.

"Was I working too hard? I forgot to check on time and now, my stomach is grumbling."

Yuki paced to the window and undid the curtain. The sun ray was a sign that it was nearly sunset. He has been working for the whole day without eating.

"Ryohei will return soon, and he'll surely nag at me."

Right when he was about to leave the living room, Yuki heard constant knocks on the entrance. With a wide smile across his face, he walked to the door and undoubtedly swung it open.

"Hi, Yuki. I've come to you."
