To Seek Power: Glutinous Fall Ch.2

Chapter Two: The Target in Osaka

2 Hours Earlier - Osaka, Japan
The Santiago Residence

Rico opens the bathroom door and stands there for a second looking over to the bed where his wife lay asleep.  He smiles and sits on the bed, dressing himself for the day.  Moco looks over her shoulder quietly and smiles.  Rico pulls his shirt over his head and Moco grabs him.

[Moco]
Where are we off to this morning?

She pulls his shirt down for him, revealing a frightened Rico.  He smiles at her and lies back in her chest.

[Rico]
I have to go to the market today.  We are running low on fish and steak, and you know how we need that for tonight’s dinner get together.

[Moco]
Do you have to go now~
I was hoping we could cuddle for a bit.

Rico touches her left cheek, making her smile at him.

[Rico]
We can cuddle when I get back babe.

[Moco]
Oh all right.  But you better be quick about it.

Rico and Moco share a kiss before he hops out of bed and to the door.

[Rico]
I love you my dearest Oxomoco.

He bows to her and smiles.

[Moco]
A parting gift~
For you my lover~

Rico looks up, getting hit in the face with her undergarments.  He pulls them off and looks at her, blush heavy on his face.

[Rico]
My thanks my lady!  Fare the well, till our paths cross again.

He starts heading down the hall and waves back at her without turning around.  Moco watches him turn the corner and disappear from her sight.
