บท 263: Darling, You Haven't Answered My First Question

Heisuke didn't stay longer in the department store. He immediately made his way out once he got to the first floor. The tall building grew smaller as he kept walking away from it.

What happened in Kousuke's office prompted Heisuke to think more. He was glad that he came here and handed the former the money back. His heart didn't feel weighed down by a huge burden anymore.

The humiliation and disappointment still lingered within him but, it was not to the point of him being infuriated like before.

The most important thing for Heisuke was peace of his mind. If he kept acting recklessly because of Kousuke, he was the one who would be at disadvantage.

"Ah... what time is it?"

Heisuke glanced at the wristwatch. The needles were pointed at a quarter before one. It was still lunch hour at the warehouse.

Hurm... Should he call her already?

Even though he had just been away for a few hours, his heart already yearned for his lady.
