Kokonoi had been working late a lot, Bonten was in a tough position recently with rivals so he’d come home as the sun rose most mornings.

You tried to understand, but your mind ran wild the more you were left alone with it. You trusted him wholeheartedly but that didn’t stop the doubts.

As the clock hit 1am, your phone rang and displayed his name, pulling you from your thoughts.

“Hey my sweet girl, i’m so sorry it’s another late night. You’ve eaten right? I can get something sent to the house”

Kokonoi says quietly, exhaustion was clear even through the phone but you could tell he was trying to hide it from you.
