章 11: Darling

Luna dumbfounded a moment before she awkwardly laughing. "Ahahah…I almost forgot. Sorry to disturb you, Mr. Carson." She said before she turns around. But only for a second before she halts and looks back at the man.

"Um, sorry, but, where is the bedroom again?" She put on an awkward smile on her face.

She doesn't know anything about the second-floor layout. Her clothes and things have been move in here a few days earlier by the servant and she hasn't checked it at all as she busy with the wedding preparation.

This is her first time to come here officially as the Mistress of the house.

Mr. Carson bobbed his head and he shows her to Raymond's bedroom. Before he opens the door, he reminds her "Please be careful with what you say with Master Wayne. If he turns dangerous, please ring the bell."

"Huh?" Luna scratches her head a bit. Why would he turn dangerous? What does the butler mean by that?

She nods her head and says. "I will. Thank you, Mr. Carson."

Mr. Carson then opens the door for her. The room is a bit dark and cold. Only the light from the floor-to-ceiling cylinder lava lamp is switched on, near the modular wall TV cabinet. With a heavy heart, she steps inside and closes the door.

She looks around and not find anyone in the room, she immediately went to the closet room on the right side of the room and find something to wear for tonight. The closet room is combined with the bathroom and only separate it by the glass door.

The closet room is so spacious like walking into a luxury apparel shop. There are so many branded clothes hanging on the open closet attached to the wall, so many choices of shoes, handbag, and accessories which is limited edition and quite a rare item also could be found in here.

The closet room is divide into two space. On the right space is for Raymond and the left space is for her. At the middle of the room, there's a rounded marble table with the fresh flower inside the tall and curvy trumpet vase. There's a beautiful chandelier hanging on the ceiling which makes everything in here looks so luxurious. The closet material is from the high-quality glass and every furniture in her space and wall are painted with creamy white color, while in Raymond's space is painted with silvery grey color.

Odd, but still look beautiful. She chooses the safest choice to not choosing too open nightgown to wear tonight. She's been thinking, that they both need to talk about their sex life. She's not ready yet, and she hopes that he will understand and respect her decision.

She takes off her wedding gown inside the closet room and grabs a makeup remover from the glass cupboard. Once she's done wipe off the makeup, she went to the bathroom. Refreshing herself in the bathtub.

The bathroom is also spacious just like the closet room. It is decorated with the marble from the flooring until the wall. Seems like everything in this house is decorated with the marble. The system in the bathroom is also quite modern, just like in a movie. She really feels like lives in the fantasy right now.

After taking half an hour bath, she finally gets out of the closet room wore a nightgown she chooses earlier. She peeks at the bed area, there still no one there. She then went to the couch area.

Gulp!

Her eyes met with someone who sits on the floor in dark at the corner of the room.

"Um, hey.." Luna start first. But he did not reply to her at all. All he does is only staring at her.

"Okay...I know this is awkward. But, do you know who I am?" She slowly approaching him.

One step forward she took, one step back he retreats from her. Looking all scared like she gonna murder him anytime soon.

She finally stops her pace and sits on the floor too. Peeking at his face. He obviously had a very handsome face. That fact, she can't deny. Even though the lighting in this room is dim with only the lava lamp is switched on, she still could see that he had a wonderful, gorgeously handsome face.

But why is he act like this? What kind of illness he has?

When she sits on the floor, he still staring at her. That makes her heart thumping loudly. She couldn't guess where he was staring her at.

"In case, you forgot, I tell you again. My name is Luna. You can call me what you like. If you don't like me, you can tell me that too. I-"

"Da-darling." He spoke up and that word makes Luna blushed. "I-I don't like you." the second word suddenly make Luna's face turn sour.

"Hm...I don't like you either." She still talks to him with a gentle voice. Somehow, she could figure it out what kind of illness that this man has.

'Autism.'

"G-go a-away." He said while averting his eyes to the floor. Somehow, he looks like he is sulking. Why? He is the first one to said that he doesn't like her.

"Mm. I want to, but I can't."

"W-Why?"

"Because my husband is here. A wife's place is beside her husband, right?" even though she doesn't know why she said something cheesy like that, but seeing his eyes suddenly lit up a bit, make her feel at ease.

"Wh-who is y-your h-husband?" He then hides his face between her knees. Shy.

"Well," She stops for a bit and smiling looking at the guy who acts like a little kid. "My husband name is Raymond. Do you know who Raymond is?"

He chuckles and turns his body around to face the wall. "I-I am Raymond."

"Oh?" She wants to laugh looking at his adorable action, but she holds it. 'Aww, he's cute.'

"M-Mr. Carson said t-that my da-darling is m-my w-wife and m-my friend."

"Is that so? Then, It's true though. I am your wife and your friend." She replies delightly. 'Well, probably I'll stay friend with you.'

He nods his head, agreeing to whatever she says.

"Then, my husband. Should we go to sleep right now?" She tries to persuade him to go to bed. She doesn't want him to sleep on the cold floor on their first night, is she?

"N-no..I-I don't w-want to." He shakes his head.

"Why?"

"I-I..am a ma-man, y-you a-are a g-girl. N-no."

'Huh? So you do aware of our differences in gender? But…'

"Um, if you don't want to, I can sleep on the couch. You take the bed." She still persuading him.

He silent for a whole minute before he nods his head. "O-okay. I-I s-sleep on the bed."

Slowly, he stands up and Luna watches him walk to the bed. Once he gets into the bed, he covers his whole body with the comforter.

'Wow. Look at that kid. He is a kid despite his actual age and handsome face on the outer.'

Take the spare pillow and blanket in the closet room, Luna went to the couch and lay down. She's so tired, within a seconds, she falls asleep.
