Takes.h.i.+ walks to his brother's room . He didn't go to university for two reasons . He heard that his sister-in-law is sick . He doesn't know why she fought with his brother yesterday night . Usually, he wouldn't interfere . But, she's running a high fever because she spent the entire night in the bathtub .

Why is his brother dumb? Even if sister-in-law is a bit difficult, his brother should take care of her first . Why would his brother let her spend the entire night in the bathroom?

The second reason is that he wants to give a break to Iori who always alert about not running into him .

"You cannot enter . " The small woman raises her palm in his direction .

He stares at the woman . "Are you a cosplayer?"

"Bo . Dy . Guard . " Tsuchiya corrects him . She's often misunderstood either as a teenager girl or a cosplayer . "No one except Mr . Kamiyama and I can enter the room . "

The doctors came and treated Rie when Kiyohira was present . Since Tsuchiya did training as a nurse, she is taking care of Rie . No one is needed except her .

Takes.h.i.+ feels bad for his sister-in-law . "You can tell me how she is doing now . "

"I cannot reveal any information," Tsuchiya Tsumi replies politely .

Since he is at work, her condition must be okay . "If something happens, I live in that room . "

Tsuchiya doesn't respond . She only reports to Kiyohira .

Am I alive?

There's this angelic face in front of me . Her smile is quite soothing . This little angel looks like Sakurano Kano's little sister from my favorite manga .  

This must be a dream .

I open my eyes again . The angelic face is gone . Reality hits me . I am in Kiyohira's bedroom . I glance at the IV . Why do I frequently find myself in these kinds of situation? Did Kiyohira overreact again? What happened last night after I entered the bathroom?

When I try to get up, a hand presses against my back . The angelic face is in front of me again .  

"Are you Sakurano Tomomi?" I ask her weakly . Then, her elder brother must be around here .

"I am Tsuchiya Tsumi . " She grins at me . "I am your bodyguard . "

Bodyguard? She's even smaller than I am . Though her voice is mature for her age, she looks half my age .  When did this chibi person become my bodyguard? 

"Are you sure that I am not your bodyguard, little girl?"

Am I having a strange dream again?

"Madam Kamiyama, I am sure that I am your bodyguard . "Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .

What did she call me? Madam Kamiyama? "I am Umezaki Rie . Not Madam Kamiyama . "

She just smiles .

"How did you become my bodyguard again?" I ask her quietly .

Tsuchiya Tsumi sits beside me . She presses her fingertip on my wrist . "Mr . Kamiyama appointed me . "

That Kamiyama b.a.s.t.a.r.d! He drowned my laptop and phone . He imprisoned me inside this room .  

"Can I make a call?"

"No, Madam . "

"I want to go out . "

"You aren't allowed to . "

"I am hungry . I am going to the kitchen . "

"I will bring the food . "

This is frustrating .  

The door opens only when she brings in food or when she comes to check my temperature . The door is locked from outside . There's no chance of getting out .

Tsuchiya has done a good job . She keeps him informed about her condition throughout the day . He wonders what is waiting for him in this room . When he opens the door, he comes face to face with Rie .

"Kamiyama b.a.s.t.a.r.d, welcome back home . " She is smiling, but her eyes are not . Kiyohira notices how she has returned to calling him by that old name . Did he get demoted? She's mad for sure .

"How are you?" He closes the door . Tsuchiya locks it on the other side . Relaxed, he starts unb.u.t.toning his s.h.i.+rt . It's been a long day . He missed her a lot .

"I have been better . " She comes closer and helps him remove his s.h.i.+rt . He can't help but chuckle . She says, slightly irritated, "Why laughing? I am still your wife . If I don't do this, who will?"

Suddenly interested in the role of the wife . . . "Were you bored?"

"I had an interesting conversation with the chibi bodyguard . " She coils her arms around her neck . "Are you tired, honey?"

Her intention is clear .

"I am not tired . " He bends down his head, touching his forehead with hers . "Still a little warm . Did you take medicine, Darling?" 

"Yes," She tells him sullenly . "Did you bring that bodyguard to prevent me from leaving you?"

Kiyohira gives her a nod . "That's half of the reason . "

"Then . . . " She licks her lips . "I have decided to stay married to you . You can send her away . "

Kiyohira knows that expression . It's some wife roleplay . Is it the cute one or cunning one? Maybe both . He can't decide .

"You have made a wise decision . " He would love to take advantage of this roleplay of hers, but she still has a slight fever . "You have to rest tonight . "

"I am fine . " She sticks her body to him . "Kiyohira, you know that I like you . "

"My body, precisely . " He pinches her nose and laughs . "Sweetheart, you can stop pretending . I know what your little mind is scheming . " 

"Kiyohira, I am not pretending . I have realized it after having a fever . " She crosses her arms . "I love you, Kiyohira . I swear . I mean it . I love you tons . "

"I love you too, Sweetheart," Kiyohira tells her nonchalantly and goes for the shower while humming a tune . The door is closed before she can enter .  

Rie's attempt at escape fails .

She huffs .  "He became smarter . "

After he comes out, he sees her asleep with a half-opened mouth . Even if she lies, his heart skips a beat when she tells him that she loves him . What a beautiful lie it is . He hopes that this lie becomes the truth someday .
