Sunye woke up the next day to find herself caged in SD's arms. He was still asleep, unusual for him because he always woke up early. She tried to move his arms but her lower body was hurting like hell.
"Ugh!" she softly winced. SD was right when he said that the pain was going to be unbearable. She was so worried about his eyes and their future that she decided to go along with the flow to make love to him. It felt good when they did it but the resulting pain was making her question her life choices.
She gently poked his chest.
"SD…" she called for him. He rely grumbled and held her even more closely. Sunye was now completely hidden in his chest, blushing hard. His intoxicating scent was overwhelming her but she must keep her control.
"SD!" she jabbed him hard.
"Five more minutes!" he mumbled. Sunye tried to wake him up but to no avail. He was sleeping like a rock. She thought hard on how to wake him up. Finally an idea popped into her head. Leaning close to his ear, she whispered sothing into it.
His eyes instantly flew open and he sat up straight. "I'm up!" he claid. "When and where are we doing that?"
"Never!" Sunye exclaid. She grabbed the chance to get off the bed, wrapping the blanket around her naked body. SD's ears fell in disappointnt.
"Tch!" he scowled. "And here I was, having so many fantasies…"
"Stop with your perverted thoughts otherwise I'll kick you out of bed!" she snapped.
"I can stop my pervy thoughts but can you stop yours?" he smirked. "I do rember soone crying out in pleasure really hard-"
Sunye threw a notepad at him. How could soone say such dirty things to a girl he just slept with?
"I'll go and freshen up!" she declared, heading straight into the bathroom.
"Want to join you?" SD asked, snickering hard.
"Don't you dare!"
He rely grinned and leaned back against the headrest. anwhile, Sunye was in the bathroom, freshening up. She washed her face and wore her clothes. Her body was full of bite marks, evidence of what they did last night. It was still surreal to her that they had actually consummated their relationship and moreover, she was the one who initiated it.
She smiled to herself, feeling hopeful that maybe this was the beginning of sothing great. Not good. Good was not enough for either of them. SD always claid that they would have sothing of a great story to tell. What it was, he never elaborated.
But for once, Sunye agreed with him. Their relationship was not normal. They were not a conventional couple who wanted to date and get married soday. She was not even sure if that was in their fates at all. All she knew was that they loved the thrill of the unknown. Even a rigid person like her ler herself loose around him just to see where they might end up. This unpredictability made their relationship unique and refreshing.
"He really is rubbing off on ," she sighed but was still smiling. She ca out of the bathroom to find that SD was still on the bed, typing sothing on his tab. He was staring at it with a serious expression.
"What happened?" she asked. "Is sothing wrong?"
SD put the tab away, thinking hard. "Do you…" he began but trailed off.
"What?" she probed.
"How much do you know about the enslavent laws?" he asked.
Sunye blinked. "Enslavent law?" she echoed. "Why?"
"Just tell ," he said. "I need to know sothing."
"According to Article 207, section 10 and subsection 9," Sunye quoted. "The enslavent of any man, woman or child is forbidden by the power vested upon the state. Any laborer who is found to be unpaid a minimum wage in return for forced or coerced work can file a complaint against the employers under this law, provided that he or she has not been paid for at least six months for their work whether it is manual or tertiary."
"And slave trading?"
"Illegal," she replied. "Under the sa law. But why are you asking this?"
"I'll tell you after I return from the trip," he explained. "There's sothing I need to be sure about before I give you the evidence of what I'm about to find. In the anti, I need you to train properly. Also, be on alert. I'll text you a task and I need you to complete it before I arrive back in town."
Sunye was a little hesitant about his secret task but she nodded. "Alright," she agreed. "When are you leaving?"
"Tonight," he said. Sunye was worried upon hearing that. He was going to leave for work that night but she could not help feeling anxious.
"Will you be okay?" she whispered. "I an...whatever it is you're doing. It can get you into big trouble! And you're not even telling why you're doing all this!"
She waited for his answer but he only sighed.
"I will tell you everything," he promised. "Only when I'm gonna ask you for your pending paynt."
"Pending paynt?" she frowned.
"You still owe two favors," he reminded her. "For smuggling your brother out of the country. Rember? You paid back only once. The other one is remaining."
"When will you ask for that favor?" she demanded. "What is it?"
SD leaned in closer, his blue eyes staring right into hers. "Soon," he winked. "But for now, just follow your instincts."
"Normally, people would ask to trust them," Sunye opined. "But not you. Why?"
"I don't trust myself," SD admitted, getting off the bed. "You see, my motivations change from ti to ti. So people claim I work for revenge. So claim I work for myself. Others think I'm greedy for money and would see the world burn to get my paynt."
"So what are you working for?" Sunye asked. SD paused on his way to the bathroom.
"I work for nothing," he revealed. "And I'll soday die for nothing. In the end, that's what humans are really living for, aren't they? Nothing."
Sunye wanted to ask him what he ant but she knew it was of no use. SD would never answer her properly unless he wanted to. It was clear from his words that he would soday tell her the truth of what he was really up to but that ti did not arrive yet.
Would it even arrive? She wondered.
