Sunday morning, current time 9:32 AM.
Lean woke up half an hour ago. The moment he did the first thing he saw was Jena sleeping next to him.
Recalling the night before, he was sure he had moved farther away from her.
Remembering her horrible sleeping habit, it was kinda obvious what had happened. Pushing her body away from him, he found her feet covered in grass and dirt.
Gazing at it, he thought it was nothing but another sleeping habit of hers he didn't know of, all these years.
Perhaps she had a sleepwalking episode and left the house last night. Who knows, definitely not him.
After a while, Jena woke up. The moment she did, she started demanding things from him and put him to work without a stop.
From cooking her favorite breakfast, telling him to make juice for her that only for her to have a drink.
Snapping her finger to carry her into the rabbit forest so she can gaze at the forest where they live.
Open up his laptop and place it near her to watch her favorite movies. Telling him to get her favorite sunbathing suit and put sunscreen lotion on her.
And right now, telling him to slowly fan her with a banana leaf. "Jena, can I ask you something?" He asked, still doing what she ordered him to do.
"What is it?"
"What did I do to receive this kind of punishment? And how long will you stay?"
Jena sips her juice only for her, before answering. "Nothing really, I just wanted to do this." Snapping her finger to increase his fanning to her.
"Maybe three days?" Unbeknownst to him, this was his revenge for his words against her last night.
"That's so…." Lean wanted to throw her off from her position but didn't have the will to do it.
Jena was still a supernatural being; just by being one, her strength was either double or even ten times higher than his.
And most of all because he respected her. Jena is already a family to him; all these years of being together, the two have grown to like each other.
Not in a romantic way.
The two have grown up together and watched each other grow to what they are right now.
To the point that if they saw each other's bare skin at the same time, the two wouldn't react with intimacy, but with disgust.
This was the relationship the two had. This will not stop and won't change, even if the two were the last humans alive.
"What are you staring at? Want to cop a feel?" Jena said to Lean, who was staring at her without gazing away, grabbing her chest to tease him.
"Gross. You act like you didn't chase me with your period blood last month…" He remarked, pretending to gag on the side.
"Asshole…" Jena said, tightening her grip on the glass cup before throwing it to him.
After that, Lean became her personal butler who would not go against her words.
And for the next two days straight, he did everything she wanted him to do and did it without going against it.
*****
Two days later. Wednesday morning.
"Done." Jena decided to purify Lean curse one last time before leaving again.
Sitting up, Lean's face was a bit disoriented, although they had done this tens of times since last year, he was still not used to her leaving him alone in this place.
Of course, he knows that she can't just stay with him all the time. But he still wanted to spend more time with her.
Jena too, wanted to stay longer with him. But each time she purified his curse, she needed to discharge this on the surface.
Lean, whose curse has existed for hundreds of years and has been passed down for generations, was too powerful for Jena's body to take.
If she doesn't do this, the chance of her body suddenly expanding and being destroyed is high. So even if it's against her will, she still needs to leave him in this place.
Putting on fresh clothes that she has in the house. Jena was about to open the door to leave while Lean watched her in the living room.
Where the two of them have been sleeping all this time. Jena turned around and jumped into his hands before kissing his cheeks.
"Come on, give me a kiss, will you!" She said giving him more kisses. "What with that face, you know me. In the entire world, I have the largest capacity of curse energy because of you."
Hugging him tight she continued. "Look, as soon as I come back, I'll visit you. And if you're lonely just call that woman of yours." She chucked thinking about it.
Lean wrapping his hand around her tight, answered. "Yeah. I can just call her to come here." Before letting her go.
"Hmmm? Where's my kiss?" She questioned, waiting for it. Lean, looking at her, gave up and gave her the kiss she was waiting for on her cheeks.
"See. That's better right?" She asked. Looking at his face, she couldn't see any trace of sadness on it anymore.
Smiling, she gave him one last hug and kiss on his cheeks again before standing up. "Well. Bye for now, I'll make sure to visit you first when I come back."
"I'll be waiting!" Lean yelled out, watching her walk out in the flower garden in front of his house. As she walked, he yelled out.
"I love you!!" With a smile on his face.
Jena smiled back and yelled back.
"I know! Love you too…'
Just like that, the two separated once again. This time, Lean was not as sad as he was before. Instead, he was excited for her to come back.
