M-21 heads to the lab to find Frankenstein reading a few documents. Takeo was sleeping inside a machine. He was recovering from his wounds. "She's in bed now," M-21 told Frankenstein. Frankenstein glances at M-21 then goes back to reading, "Good. I know Seikatsu must be exhausted from fighting those guards and Yuri." M-21 narrows his eyes as he wanted to talk to Frankenstein about something else. "Why do you treat Seikatsu as if…" M-21 began. "As if she is my lover? I do not mean to harm her. Her being is because of my research. However, I can say that she is important." Frankenstein gives a vague answer.
It was too soon for the man to even say he loved her. Rai had already shown interest in her and he himself enjoyed spending time with her. Frankenstein would never directly tell anyone his true intentions not even his questionable feelings toward Seikatsu. He protected her and took care of her. The man consoled her. "Do not toy with Seikatsu's feelings. SHe's an experiment, but she's-" M-21 spoke. "Do you love her?" Frankenstein asked, "You show great concern when I tease her." "...Seikatsu is my friend. Nothing more." M-21 answers before he leaves the room. Frankenstein chuckles, "He's not a good liar."
A couple hours pass and Seikatsu was found sleeping on the couch in the living room. Somehow she placed herself there. Frankenstein had left the lab to see Seikatsu sleeping. He approaches the woman and observes her face. With a sigh, Frankenstein picks Seikatsu up and carries her bridal-style to her bedroom.
"...Sorry." Seikatsu said in her sleep as Frankenstein carries her up the stairs. It had taken a few minutes and Frankenstein places Seikatsu in her own bed. As he lowers her body, the woman slowly opens her eyes. "Franky? It's late. Go to sleep." She yawns before realizing he was in her bedroom. Frankenstein pats Seikatsu on the head. "You were sleeping in the living room so I brought you back here," Frankenstein explains and Seikatsu sighs.
"Damn sleepwalking." She scolds herself before falling back asleep. Frankenstein stares at the woman. He places one hand on Seikatsu's cheek. The woman continues to sleep as Frankenstein strokes her face. Seikatsu murmurs and she slightly turns on her side. Her aura radiates from her body and Frankenstein takes notice of this. He pins her down gently.
Seikatsu's face expresses pain as the aura was trying to manipulate her. "Seikatsu," Frankenstein calls out to her. Seikatsu did not respond as her arms were now covered in her aura as if she was going to attack like before. Seikatsu opens her eyes but her irises were purple. "I'll kill them…" She spoke as she tries to break free.
"This isn't you," Frankenstein said as he saw the look on Seikatsu's face. And it was dangerous. "I want to kill that bitch. Both of them. They called me "His favorite" my dear Franky. I want them dead." Seikatsu speaks. Frankenstein narrows his eyes. The strange words that escaped her lips. "You will get the chance when we deal with them. What else do you want?" Frankenstein responds. "What else? Get off me is a first." Seikatsu said with slight irritation.
"You shouldn't look precious when you're angry. I might have to own you." He teases her as he uses his free hand to rest on her bandaged stomach. Seikatsu squirms to his touch. "You are handsome but this body belongs to me," Seikatsu said with a grin. Frankenstein gently brushes his fingertips against Seikatsu's skin. "You're correct." He says before giving her a kiss on the lips.
Seikatsu's aura flared for a few minutes until her irises were back to normal. The woman's arms were back to normal. Frankenstein releases Seikatsu and she covers her mouth. "What the...F-Frankenstein?! You should be sleeping. In YOUR room." Seikatsu spoke wondering what was going on. Frankenstein chuckles and kisses Seikatsu once more. This time he deepens the kiss. Seikatsu blinks in shock as Frankenstein smirks into the kiss. His dark aura radiates to clashes with hers. Seikatsu drifts off to sleep and Frankenstein lets her go. He pulls the covers over her body then leaves the bedroom.
"Heh, love is for humans." Frankenstein laughs to himself.
The next day Seikatsu was walking with Rai. He did not want to have her go home alone. During the whole time, he never left her alone. Not that it bothered her. Rai was concerned. He did not want Seikatsu kidnapped again. She held her bookbag in her hands. "Rai...where are we going? Aren't we supposed to head home?" Seikatsu questions as they were heading towards a restaurant. "Shinwoo and Ikhan invited Regis and me to hang out." Rai answers. Seikatsu blinks as she did not expect him to go along with this.
"I thought Regis had cleaning duty today," Seikatsu said as she tried to remember. Rai nods. "I'm glad you're here. You look better." He says. Seikatsu chuckles and stretches her arms as they walk along the sidewalk. "I feel better compared to the first time I've been kidnapped," Seikatsu says as she glances at Rai. Rai pats Seikatsu on the head. Seikatsu sighs as she knew she was content. "Your powers evolved similarly to Frankenstein's. He needs to train you soon." He said. Seikatsu agrees.
She remembers fighting Yuri. That face of his irritated her. "Let's hope we can get started soon," Seikatsu said. ONce they entered the restaurant, Rai and Seikatsu see Shinwoo, Ikhan, and Regis sitting at a table with four girls from a different high school. "Seikatsu," Rai said as he walks closer to them. "Yes?" Seikatsu responds. "Stay by my side," He said softly. Seikatsu nods as shd sort of thought as if this meeting was suspicious. Yuna, Suyi, and Seira were sitting at a different table.
"My gosh...that girl is a popular name in Ye Ran High School."
"She's the foreign student."
"Seikatsu is a topic. How is she friends with these boys?"
The girls whisper to each other as they see Seikatsu first. THey observe her features as Shinwoo and Ikhan call Rai over. Regis overhears them. He was not interested in staying any longer and he was bored. His eyes narrow at the gossiping females. "Hey, Rai! S-Seika!" Ikhan waves to his friends. The second Rai stepped closer the girls fell silent. Each one stared at him. Face flushed in awe.
Rai sat down next to Regis. Seikatsu stood beside him. "Why did you call me here? And who are these ladies?" Regis questions. Shinwook smiles nervously, "Regis, we wanted to introduce you to them." "Yeah, that's right! Introduce them to you!" Ikhan repeats. "Really?" Regis did not believe them. The girls flinch. "I should get going," Regis said. "You have cleaning duties, right? Oh, Rai, I have to tutor you too." Seikatsu said. Regis and Rai nod. "Let's go," Regis said as he stands up.
Rai does the same and the three leave. Seikatsu got the hint of what the boys were doing. "Oh hell." She thought as she walked with Rai and Regis by her side. Ever since yesterday Seikatsu was dumbfounded by the boys' attempt to meet the high school girls. Seikatsu focused on her studies until the day ended. She was ready to head home until Shinwoo and Ikhan approach her with M-21 being dragged along. "Wait, why ask me this question? I-I've never-" Seikatsu was caught off guard as she stood next to M-21.
"You are a mature girl and a lot of the guys like you. Ahjussi has a bunch of girls who like him. I believe you can help us." Shinwoo explained. Seikatsu sw the look M-21 gave her. "I never actually been in love but maybe the feeling is not a bad thing. I mean having the feeling is nice. To treasure someone is precious." Seikatsu spoke. She smiles gently. The smile catches M-21's attention. He saw a side of Seikatsu that was rare. THe answer Seikatsu gave was unexpected.
"You and Ahjussi should date. His answer was similar." Ikhan said. Seikatsu and M-21 stare at each other with wide eyes. "D-Don't joke around like that. You boys dragged Rai out to meet girls and got busted! These girls could kill you both if word gets out. Besides, I don't have any dating experience. I just think it's sweet to like someone." Seikatsu said as she regains her composure. "Well, the guys think you will date either Rai or Ahjussi. I mean he saved you from getting hit by the van. You two were very close that day. A number of girls were jealous." SHinwoo stated.
"Seikatsu and I are not like that. She is a student and I was only doing my job." M-21 said. "You two are always serious," Shinwoo says as he felt the tension. "I should get going…" Seikatsu said. "I'll take you home. Principal Lee requested me to escort you." M-21 said. "Are you okay, Seika? You haven't been looking good lately." Ikhan has shown concern for his friend. He was right. Seikatsu had been healing and her sanity was returning back to normal.
The woman was quiet and easily exhausted. "I'm just recovering from an illness. Sorry for not saying anything." Seikatsu said as she could not tell them about her recent kidnapping. The boys had their memories erased. "No, it's fine. Just tell us if you need anything." Ikhan said with a smile on his face. "Thank you. This won't last long. Promise." Seikatsu says before she excuses herself and leaves. M-21 follows her. Once everyone was home, Seikatsu was replacing her bandages while scolding Tao and Takeo.
"You two HAD to leave M-21 and me as the damn advice givers to solve that dating issue. What the hell Tao. You said you could help. M-21 doesn't date and I am not into dating." Seikatsu said while Seira helped the woman rewrap herself. Tao laughs. "But you are more knowledgeable about the teenage life." He says as he watches Seikatsu. "Screw you, I never experienced this mess. Who else did Shinwoo talk to? Rai? No. Franky?" Seikatsu spoke. Frankenstein walks past the bathroom to head to his bedroom.
"I just told him that a bunch of females followed me around when I was his age. I did not understand." Frankenstein says before he enters his room. Seikatsu sighs. Frankenstein was an attractive man and she did not deny it. "You were probably popular when you were younger. Rai attracts every damn female. M-21, Tao, Takeo, and Regis have fangirls. Seira is pretty. I'm the damn experiment who is not superb in various departments. I look like a child." Seikatsu says with a frown.
Compared to the other females, Seikatsu was not endowed. "Stop focusing on your appearance. You're a fine lady." Regis said as he exits his bedroom. "My powers make me useful. If I didn't have them then I would not even matter." Seikatsu rants. Seira finishes wrapping the last bandage and cuts it off. She puts everything back in the first-aid kit. Seikatsu puts her shirt back on. "Thank you." She says with a sigh of relief.
"You are an interesting woman. Do not consider yourself useless. I can tell that someone treasures you. Maybe more than one." Seira says and leaves the woman by herself. Seikatsu stares down at her shirt. The wounds were almost gone and Seikatsu let out a tired sigh. The idea of someone caring was sort of believable.
