The Substitute Wife Chapter 3: 3 Warming Up

Mia decides to go for a swim for a change. She went to her room to change into a swimsuit. She takes a stretch and head to the water.

...

The man receives a phone call. "Hiro, Mia Kazusa and Maya Kazusa are sisters." (Sisters?) "What kind of job does Mia have or other hobbies?" Mia is a cartoonist for children's book and also she always attends to the animal rescue organization."

"Animal rescue organization?" "Yes, she's the one who help those wild animals." (What? The woman I met and fell in love wasn't Maya? It's her.) "Then what about Maya?" "She's a florist. Unlike Mia, Maya is allergic to animals." "What kind of relations.h.i.+p do they have with their parents?" "They treasure Maya more. They don't seem to care about Mia."

Hiro remembers how Mia looks at her parents who never looked at her. "Thanks." Hiro ends the call. He sighs. He returns to the bedroom but he doesn't see her. "Where is she?" He went outside and no sign of her. "d.a.m.n this woman." He looks around and still doesn't see her.

Then he sees a something in the water. He notices it's Mia. "s.h.i.+t!" He runs tot he water, as he runs he takes off his s.h.i.+rt and toss it aside.

...

Mia was enjoying the water. She floats on the water to look up at the sky. (It's sure a beautiful day.) someone grabs her. She startles. "Y-you!" She tilts her head, confused.

Hiro yells at her. "You d.a.m.n woman, you really want to kill yourself! Do it when you're alone, not with me." He realizes she's wearing a swimsuit. He blushed. "Kill myself? Why would I want to do that?" He realizes he misunderstood the situation.

He turns around and was about to walk away. "Are you worried about me?" He stops. (d.a.m.n this woman. Why did I—) He turns around and was surprised how happy she is. She smiles. "No one ever worried about me."

"Tch." He walks up to her and grab her hand to pull her close. He kiss her. She was taken back and tries to push him back but he was too strong. He then kiss her hard that she lost her balance, they fell into the water.

He won't stop kissing her. She finally pulls away and grabs something to his lips. He startles, he gets out of the water. She also gets out of the water. "You—" "What? This?" She shows to him, it was a sea cuc.u.mber. He trembles.

She grins. "Hey! You!" "Rawr!" She chases him with the sea cuc.u.mber. "Gahhhhhh!!!" She trips on a rock, but as she trips, the sea cuc.u.mber flew. Hiro was about to catch her but he froze.

The sea cuc.u.mber hit and stuck to his face. "Ow." Mia looks up and sees the sea cuc.u.mber on his face. She tries to hold her laugh in, but couldn't help but laugh. "Hahahahahahahaha!!" She sees him glaring at her. "Take this thing off now." "Ahem. Sorry."

She helps him remove the sea cuc.u.mber off of his face. Once it's off, he turns around and left. "Hey! You okay?" He ignores her. She chuckles.

...

Hiro went to take a long bath. "d.a.m.n woman. Dare to make fun of me. I'll show you." Mia went to use a different bathroom. She takes a quick shower and heads out. She change into a T-s.h.i.+rt and a shorts.

She returns to the room but notice Hiro is still in the bathroom. "Is he okay? It's just a sea cuc.u.mber." She giggles then she yawns. Her eyes are getting sleepy. She heads to the bed and sleep without waiting for him.

He gets out of the bath and head out. He freezes as soon as he sees her sleeping on the bed. "Are you kidding me?" (She's so not cute!)

He change into a T-s.h.i.+rt with pajamas pants. He sits on the side of the bed where she's sleeping. He reaches out and touch her hair gently with out waking her up.

He smiles. "It seems you know how to have fun." He kiss on her forehead. "Good night" he still feel the tingling feeling from a sea cuc.u.mber. He trembles.

He closes the lights and head to bed. He puts his arms around her and cuddle with her. He closes his eyes and drifts to sleep.
