My Future Wife Is Androphobic

Chapter 16 - Never mind

Kira had run out of ideas on what to say. The sound of the growling monster in her stomach was still ringing in his head and he didn't know how to even react.

What was worse was that, before he could even ask her to come with him to the cafeteria, the hungry little cheetah already left.

Just like that, the heartthrob Kira was left standing all alone under the shade of the tree as the quiet breeze blew towards him.

He cursed as he crouched down as though he had just finish a long exhilarating battle against an undefeated foe. He was biting his lip hard as he ruffled his fingers through his hair, looking like he was so drained. It was as if his battery drastically fell down to 5%.

Kira then sat on the bench under the tree as he looked up at the dancing leaves. He was shaking his head as he forced a laugh. His head was full of her. He was so irritated and yet he felt so intrigued. Before he realized it, that girl turned into a math equation, seemingly impossible for anyone to solve. She was so unbelievably hard to figure out. This was the first time Kira met someone like her.

Time passed and Kira finally decided to leave when to his surprise, the squirrel returned. He could only blink as he looked at her. What? This squirrel came back? Why?

Somehow, Kira was so used to her always running away from him that it was hard for him to believe that she actually voluntarily came back. This squirrel, what was she planning to do?

While Kira was busy thinking about why she came back, the girl casually sat on the bench beside him. Her action confused Kira so much that he couldn't stop himself from confronting her.

However, not even a word came out of Kira's mouth when the girl quietly brought out a lunch box from her bag. It looked like she brought it from home since the cafeteria in this school would never put food in such a childish lunch box. What was she doing? Was she going to eat her lunch here? It's not even lunch break yet!

"Hey, are you that hung-" Kira swallowed the rest of his words, the moment Zeri opened the box. I-it's a sandwich?!

Speechless, Kira almost face palmed but gladly, he maintained his composure and acted cool.

"Here." Surprisingly, the squirrel offered him some of her food again, for the third time around. Ugh, this glutton! How was she so thin like that!

Kira took the sandwich without any hesitation. However, he didn't eat it right away. Instead, he surveyed the sandwich as if he was looking for something hidden in it.

When he was done with his surveillance, Kira turned to Zeri with a questioning look.

"Why does this sandwich look like this?" he asked and Zeri simply looked at him blankly, throwing him a look which indicated that she didn't understand his question at all. "I mean, you see, normal sandwiches should be filled with… never mind."

Kira felt like he would just have another headache if he continued talking. He didn't know why he was even asking. Sigh… don't get me wrong squirrel, it's just that this is the first time I saw a sandwich this plain! Would this even taste like one? Isn't this just 2 pieces of bread stuck together?

After questioning himself, Kira still took a bite and when he was savoring it, he was surprised with the taste. He looked at Zeri with wide eyes, as though he was so surprised.

"Who made this? A chef, right?" he suddenly asked and Zeri simply tilted her head before she slowly raised her hand and pointed her forefinger towards herself.

Kira: ". . ."
