Oh Mr General - Chapter 202

A month after Ming had left for his exchange program in Country U, Sato had finally recovered his voice back. His body was still weak, but now, he was able to climb down steps on his own. This now meant that his muscles were gradually getting used to moving around. Soon enough, the young man would be able to integrate properly into daily work again. The one problem that wasn’t able to be fixed much of was his mental scar. The events from that day had left a lasting imprint in the boy’s mind. Some nights, Sato would wake up from his nightmare that relived those terrifying days. Gray would have trouble coaxing the poor boy and would result to giving him some melatonin to go back to sleep.

There wasn’t much they could do except let Sato go through the motions of life and speak to a therapist from time to time. For the young man, he was honestly quite tired of being cooped up at home all the time. Though, at this point, he would much prefer to not interact with anyone that he was unfamiliar with. There was a looming shadow of discomfort when he meets strangers.

And so, Gray’s solution to that was to bring the young man overseas. They had already planned to go to Country Y to visit Gray’s grandfather. Since Sato’s voice had more or less recovered, they decided this was a good time to take Sato out to see the outside world again. Moreover, they were only heading to Gray’s family’s private residences. The people there were all trustworthy and have been working under the Tobion family house for decades.

Sato was grateful for all that Gray had done for him. Countless times, he had compromised to help Sato feel better. And countless times, Sato felt like he could never repay his lover back. The evening before their flights to Country Y, the couple sat together at the peak of their compound hill and watched the sun set over the city horizon. It was a beautiful sight as Sato laid his head comfortably on Gray’s shoulder.

“Every time I come here with you, I would feel extremely lucky.” Sato expressed his honest feelings to Gray.

“I feel extremely lucky too.” Gray turned his head and planted a kiss on Sato’s head.

“Can you believe that it is almost been a year since we first met in your work place?” Sato reminisced the past. At that time, the boy had been kicked out of University due to his lack of financial funds. In the end, he had applied for a job application as an assistant in the Military. There, he met his past lover Gray whom he did not recognise at the beginning. It was there that he began his crazy one year of drama and conflicts, most of which were things that he could never have imagined would happen.

“A lot of things have happened.” Gray said what Sato was thinking in his head.

“Indeed. Now, all I want in life is to live comfortably and peacefully with you.” Sato turned to look at Gray with an adoring gaze.

“You can, but knowing you?” Gray smirked as he pinched the young man’s cheek, “I know you will somehow get yourself into some situation.”

“Yeah… I truly am unlucky eh?”

“You may be unlucky on the outside, but to me, you are the greatest and luckiest thing I could receive in my lifetime.”

“I could say the same for you too. You are also my luckiest thing I had received in this lifetime.” The pair of lovers continued flirting between each other until the sun finally set for the day.

The weather was getting cooler now that autumn was around the corner. Gray and Sato decided to have dinner outside by their convertible veranda that was able to be made into an outdoor or an indoor space. That night, they had a delicious steak for dinner that made Sato m.o.a.n unconsciously. After all, how bad could an A5 wagyu steak be?

The next day, Sato and Gray departed for Country Z’s private airport terminal where the Tobion family’s private jet awaited for their arrival. Sato had taken this plane before during their trip to Country J. Even though it was his second time on a private jet, it still felt very surreal for the young man. Madel and Potter had followed along with the couple on this trip back to Country Y. They sat in the back quietly while Sato and Gray did their own businesses. Gray had work to do during this time, while Sato made sure to not waste any opportunity to catch up on his studies.

He had been making great progress in his second year modules, though he was learning two major at once. The young man never complained once and instead, loved the challenge in trying to catch up with his peers. Such challenge was something he could do everyday, but that would mean he would have to face crazy predicaments that would force Sato to delay his studies. Wishing such things upon himself would simply be crazy.

The distance between Country Y and Z was only about 1000km and so, within an hour or so, the plane had already landed in the private airport terminal. On arrival, the couple and their butlers were welcomed with a red carpet that eventually led to a black bullet-proof car. It was a crazy experience for a commoner like Sato, yet, for Gray who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, this was just a normal trip back home.
