Everything hurts, mainly his head. Mark struggled to get up before looking around and flinching holding his cheek.
Japan. Nope, definitely Chinese. Characters are different.
He pulled his phone out and checked his location.
Shanghai.
Mark noticed the time, and quietly realized he was fucked. He could only hope she's still asleep at 11 in the morning. Wait, he could still save this.
Steal clothes, shower, grab coffee,breakfast and why is my face sore.
He checked himself out and winced. A fist sized bruise right under his cheek bone.
Mark quietly sent ki to his face as he arrived in Japan.
He took a picture, before reappearing in California. He searched the streets like a madman eventually finding a empty house.
He scrubbed like a madman and furiously garbled mouthwash. He grabbed a leather jacket and clothes before appearing in Japan.
He honestly felt they were a size to big but this wasn't time to be picky.
He searched for a restaurant and casually walked over using his phone as a translator.
Yen currency. He thankfully had some given one of the banks was international.
He returned and slowly walked in, his face was mostly healed, the stench was gone and he was perfectly on time.
Does he lie? Mark was hesitating now that he was here. Making a plan and executing it to the end were completely different.
He couldn't do it. He couldn't picture himself looking at her beautiful eyes and lying. He heard a footstep and his heart dropped.
Man up, Mark tell her what happened. That I got drunk on three cups of Vodka and got carried away in the moment as he stumbled into another bar?That he woke up in Shanghai with little clue as to when he got there?
Mark hesitantly spoke-I got breakfast
Yuzuki came forth and sniffed him-You showered
Mark folded-I smelled bad. I may, no I got drunk on the way to Japan
Yuzuki looked at him-That's fine as long as you don't make it a habit
He sighed in relief before freezing as a delicate pale hand rested on his jewels.
Her red eyes looked deeply into his-You didn't sleep with a some cheap woman outside did you.
Her hand slightly clenched sending a immediate chill up his spine.
Mark went pale, his voice went a little higher than normal-I was just drunk nothing else
Yuzuki observed his expressions searching for a flaw before releasing. Mark felt a little weak, he was sweating a bit. He could practically feel his nuts crushed in her palm.
He placed the food on the counter and slumped onto the couch. He felt a little disturbed he was oddly turned on by the thought.
She casually sat on lap as her eyes faintly sparkled seeing a Furikake Salmon Rice Bowl, he smiled and turned on the TV.
Downloaded Movie's. He had bought a Doki set up connected to a storage device for 290,000 from a shady college student in Vegas. He said it was fully furnished with modern movies and old classics.
Porn. It was Porn. 9 different files of porn and then 1 megafile of movies.
He slowly turned his head, and she noticed. Mark could only own it and continue to the movie's.
He didn't recognize a single title. It was like looking into a foreign market that was translated into English.
Yuzuki suggested a movie on the lower right, The Playbook. A movie about a man struggling with being incapable of truly opening up as he struggles to manage 5 intimate relations with women. He knows it leads to self destruction but doesn't change it.
Wow, that sounds like genuine ass.
He noticed Yuzuki was leaning in and could only helplessly click. The minute's past by as he felt oddly uncomfortable watching. That hollow expression at the end as he walks off to find another woman is terrifying.
He doesn't even try explaining himself. Who wrote this? Why give him stage 3 brain cancer?
He felt disturbed, it was like looking in shattered mirror. He is alone, utterly alone despite those desperate flings.
Mark felt his throat tightening up a little. He refused to end up like that. He wondered if he was even capable of sincerity and devotion but he didn't want to lose his relationship.
Then be honest. It was clear cut, even to a thief like him who lies as he breathes. He already took the first step a while ago, just stay doing that.
