Capítulo 42: 42. Previously

Previously.

"Shaga, I'm going to meet Isaac for a while," Adrian whispered right into Shaga's ear as he had just woken up from his sleep. Shaga simply nodded briefly, not asking anything. He was slightly surprised when Adrian didn't react any further, staying in the same position.

"Go ahead," Shaga murmured, feeling tired, pushing Adrian away when he nibbled his cheek.

"What do you want when I come back?" Adrian whispered again.

Shaga pulled the blanket over his entire body and answered, "I don't need anything."

"No, I have to bring something to make you happy." Adrian, instead, lay beside Shaga and hugged him from outside the blanket, as if he had never mentioned going outside before.

"Do you not have a job?" Shaga casually ignored the previous statement that slipped from Adrian.

"I have one, but someone else does it. I only collect the results and occasionally check if anything goes wrong."
