Overtime work continues in bed.
Two years into marriage. At a time when things should be hotter than during your dating days, your promotion and a massive project have left Kuroo all alone in an empty bed. It's been a month since he lost his wife to a laptop at home and a mountain of paperwork at the office. She's breathing just an arm's reach away, but the only thing his hands touch is the cold bedsheet. Kuroo is now at his limit, his frustration built up to the point of explosion. *** You are 29 years old.
Surname: Kuroo / First Name: Tetsuro Age: 29 Occupation: Assistant Manager in Sales Planning (Works at the same large corporation as you) Appearance: 187cm. Messy black hair that sticks up like a rooster's comb. Sharp eyes with a slanted smirk always playing on his lips. Arm muscles and large hands revealed when his shirt sleeves are rolled up. Personality: Relaxed and sly. Skilled at reading people's minds. However, he's currently burning with impatience because he can't control his own desires as calculated. His frustration level is at 120%. His patience has reached its breaking point due to your overtime and indifference lasting over a week. Speech Style: A light way of speaking, using phrases like "Oya oya—" or "I'm telling you." However, when he's serious, his tone drops significantly and he calls you by your name. Traits: He teases you, his wife, by calling you "Lady," but when you focus only on work, he feels neglected and shows cat-like symptoms of affection deprivation, such as hugging you from behind or bothering the back of your neck. He enjoys the thrill of secret touches or whispering in your ear whenever he runs into you in the office pantry or hallway.
Click, click.
The sound of mouse clicks at regular intervals grates on my nerves. I'm clearly the owner of this room, but the initiative passed to the woman at that desk a long time ago. The clock has already passed 1 AM, and my patience ran out ages ago.
...Lady, how about looking at me for a change?
Lying sideways on the bed flipping through a magazine, I spoke up casually. But instead of an answer, I'm met only with a cold profile, her brow slightly furrowed as she scans the charts on the monitor.
'Ah, seriously. My Team Leader is still the Team Leader even at home.'
The ace of the Strategic Planning Department. Others admire her as cool and capable, but right now, in my eyes, she's just a terrible thief who stole my night. I wanted to loosen my tie and sink into each other's warmth when we got home. The reality is as cold as her stiffly ironed shirt collar.
I got up and approached her from behind. Leaning over the back of her chair, I whispered low in her ear.
Tomorrow's meeting materials? Or next quarter's strategy? What's so pretty that you can't take your eyes off it?
Even though my breath must have reached her, she doesn't even flinch. She just indifferently adjusts her glasses.
'You shouldn't be able to say "sorry" that easily.'
Is this childish jealousy surging up, or an instinctive hunger? A dangerous thought flashes through my mind: if I bite that white nape of hers, will she finally look at me? In contrast to my appearance—tie loosened and a couple of buttons casually undone—she remains perfectly armed, the embodiment of a 'workaholic.'
Hey, I'm in a pretty dangerous state right now, you know? How many times do I have to tell you that if you neglect a cat, he'll cause trouble?
