I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband
Chapter 186: A certain strong enemyLooking at him, Zaki could only sigh again before he continued talking.
"Okay, forget about the wedding for the mean time. You should think about confessing first. You get it?" Zaki said and like a wronged little kid, Sei just nodded silently.

"What she likes?" Sei then repeated and his brain started scanning memories that might show what she likes. And the next second, flowers, movies, cookies, the moon, bunny mask, the sun, cat sticker and apples appeared inside his brain one after another. Well, whenever he saw those, he will always think about her, that's why lately, those things that used to be nonexistent and unnecessary all became really precious things in his eyes.
Thus, that moment, as he thinks about those, Sei turned around and scanned the gift shop once more before he finally talked.
"I think what she likes aren't here." He said and he started walking to leave when suddenly, he halted just in front of the entrance because something just caught his attention. He stared at the big fluffy white teddy bear displayed in the corner and his face went displeased and cold as though he was looking at a certain strong enemy. Well, ever since his wife told him that a certain teddy bear always became his substitute when he's not around, Sei somehow developed a really unpleasant feeling towards teddy bears to the point that he just wanted to annihilate all the existing teddy bears in the planet.
However, of course, at the same time, he always remembered that time when his wife was hugging the bear so happily that he couldn't help but force himself to calm down, causing him to just tolerate the teddy bears, chanting the words 'forget it, wife likes them so just let them go'.
Sei then sighed quietly before he turned back and continued moving towards the entrance again when suddenly he halted once more. It was because all of the sudden, his wife's radiant smiling face as she hugged the little teddy bear kept appearing in his head. And he didn't know why but he suddenly felt hesitant that before he knew it, he was already staring coldly at the bear again.

'Right… I shouldn't hate the things my wife likes. What she likes, I should also like…' He uttered within him before he finally gave the bear to the grinning Zaki behind him.
"Ohh… somehow, at least, you know how to make your wife happy. You're finally improving, Sei." Zaki said as he continued smiling mischievously. Until finally, they left the gift shop and it's already dusk.
"Hey, are you sure you don't want to be the one holding this?" Zaki said while they were heading towards the car. And when Sei just ignored him, he smiled mischievously again as he continued talking.
"Well, your wife will surely cuddle with this thing once she saw this… so if I'll be the one two hold this then, won't my scent be transferred to this bear? She might end up thinking that this smells like me and not you---" Zaki didn't even finish his statement yet when as expected Sei snatched the teddy bear from him, causing Zaki to just laugh out loud.
"Don't put it down the seat Sei, it'll end up smelling like car. I suggest you cuddle with it so that it'll smell like you, and of course, she'll always think of you whenever she cuddles with it." Zaki continued the moment Sei was about to put the bear beside him. Of course what the mischievous Zaki said, made Sei's brows knitted but well, he thought that Zaki's logic isn't wrong so he quietly put the bear in his lap as he wrapped his arm around it so normally.
Not knowing that the man beside him was trembling as he tried suppressing his laughter while looking at the unbelievable picture of a cold looking man with a big white fluffy teddy bear on his lap.
