I Love You, Monster: The Blindfolded Wife x The Masked Husband
Chapter 136: No doubt in love, 100%

"I'm… In… love?" he uttered but the next second, he slowly looked as though he was trying to decipher a certain thousand years old code that still no one could answer.

"Okay, I'll ask you questions to help you sort it out. First, do you often found yourself suddenly attempting or doing things you're not even interested about before, because of her?" the man asked and Sei began to recall every memory in his head in such perfect details. As though he was rewinding a movie in his head with no missing scenes.

All the first times he experienced because of her and while he was with her appeared like series of beautiful and precious photos one after another. And he knew that he didn't even need to assess them anymore because his answer to the man's question was no doubt a solid "yes".

"Next, do you often feel anxious or tense whenever there's something wrong or when she does moves on you or in every little thing she do?"

"Absolutely yes, even with single touch of her, this man goes frozen and stunned every time that I can't even count how many times it is already. And anxious? My god. Did you know we even flew from the other side of the world in an instant just because his wife was upset and just because of a single call saying 'I miss you'?" Zaki was the one who shamelessly answered the psychiatrist's question. However, his words were actually the exact things that were currently inside Sei's brain, as though the talkative Zaki just volunteered himself to put Sei's thinking into words.

Thus, hearing Zaki's statement and seeing Sei's expression, Izumi could already get another solid "yes" answer so he continued.

"Are you experiencing the inability to feel any romantic passion for anyone else but her?"

"O'cmon Izumi… what kind of question is that? Did he ever felt any emotion, much more a romantic passion before? This man was originally a lifeless log, a robot with a huge brain but without a heart! These dramatic changes just started ever since his beloved wife appeared, you know!"

Again, it was Zaki who answered him and he knew very well about what he meant. Izumi who was his useless psychiatrist for a long time now knew just how stone cold Sei was, that he even thought that there might be no cure for him anymore.

"Hey, Zaki. I'm asking these things to make him realize his feelings himself, okay? So please keep quiet and let me do my work in peace." Izumi then calmly spoke to the talkative man Zaki who just nonchalantly back off a little upon hearing him.

"Yeah, yeah. I get it, go ahead then. Continue the interrogation, no, the question and answer portion I mean." He just said, causing the psychiatrist to shook his head a little. This guy too is still such a pain…

"Okay, next question Sei. Do you think she's unique? I mean, do you think there's no one in the whole world like her?" he then asked and Sei immediately said "yes" without a single second of hesitation. Reflecting the words 'she's the only one in the universe' in his eyes.

"Do you always find yourself daydreaming about every little moment you spent with her or do you always found yourself focusing on every trivial objects or events that reminds you of her?"

"Izumi, just so you know, every single cookies and flowers now turned this guy here into extreme daze that I'm already planning to hire someone who will do the job of jolting him back to reality every single time, because I'm already tired doing that."

As expected, Zaki couldn't just shut his mouth so Izumi could only ignore him. Besides, he knew that Zaki was the one who knew Sei more than anyone else. That he might even know more about Sei more than the man himself.

"Do you feel like your moods kept swinging here and there as though you were experiencing drug addiction?"

"Exactly, sometimes, no every time, this man who used to be a land with a single season of winter for decades suddenly turned into four seasoned land. But of course, he became like a broken season himself. As though Winter, spring, autumn and summer were fighting every time. And the funniest thing was that, winter immediately disappear in the picture with no trace as if it never existed once his wife appear, and summer and spring suddenly come all along with her. Ahh… do you get what I mean?"

"Yes, I get it. Absolutely clear Mr. Zaki." The psychiatrist then said before he turned towards Sei again.

"Next question, Sei. Do you regularly experience these signs – possessiveness, jealousy, fear of rejection or separation anxiety?"

"Hahaha! Would you believe me if I tell you he even felt jealous towards someone who's gay? He even gets jealous towards me of all people even when I'm just trying to talk with pure business with his dearest wife. This person here is a super jealous husband. Plus… he almost never wanted to leave this house now. And while we're away, he's always working ten times faster just to come home the earliest time possible."

Upon hearing Zaki's answer and looking at the absolute "yes, he has said everything I have in mind" flashing across Sei's eyes, Izumi could only sigh. He could already tell that there's no need for him to ask any more questions.

"Okay, last couple of questions. Have you thinking about the future with her? And do you feel like you're willing to sacrifice anything for her?" the psychiatrist then asked and without waiting for his answer, he continued. "If your answers are yes as well, then congratulations Sei, you're no doubt in love, 100%."
