A Promise Fulfilled

Rafayel finished his breakfast while gently calming Tama down.

That evening, as Tama had advised, Rafayel went to greet Thomas who returned home a little earlier than usual.

If they really get married, this is going to happen every day, huh...

He hurried to the entrance, feeling a little shy.

Standing by the door, Rafayel watched as Thomas quickly approached himand suddenly lifted him up.

Surprised by the sudden action, Rafayel exclaimed, "Whoa!"

"What's wrong, Thomas?" he asked without thinking.

"…Because my beloved wife is here to welcome me, isn't it natural for me to hold you tightly out of happiness?" Thomas said as he kissed Rafayel all over his face.

Though feeling a bit embarrassed, Rafayel's happiness outweighed his shyness, so he quietly accepted the affection.

When they went to the room together, Thomas began to take off his uniform.

Rafayel took it from him and hung it carefully on a hanger.
