Even though I say Extra along with Eight, I wrote the Extra as a continuation of Eight, but just a cutesy type of thing...... Sine I wrote these chapters two weeks ago, I just want to get all the chapters I wrote uploaded and then do normal updates cuz I hate reading on AFF (it's hard to read, worse for my eyes)
--Eight--
Mayu POV“Erm…..”
I can’t really cook that much. Don’t blame me for that, but really, this person is really….. It doesn’t look like she can crack an egg correctly. It turned out that it was too late to go out to eat, so she invited me over. Now, I can’t refuse when someone suddenly pulls me along right?
Rather, if I could refuse, I would. Reasons why I can’t, I rescued her like some idiot hero, bad idea. I’m a kid. I’m hungry. I don’t like making people cry. Really, if only something would happen.
Sadly, it looks like she doesn’t realize how bad her cooking looks. Well, at least I’m not eating something by Tomochin-san, if I was, how horrible that would be. Yeah, that’s right, try looking on the bright side.
Yeah, that’s impossible isn’t it.
“Nezumi-chan, do you eat omelet rice with ketchup?”
Why does she have to be so happy and cute right now?
“I don’t really care…….”
Now, I’m getting worried if that was a good answer or not. Ok, Ok, Ok, Mayu, stop acting like an idiot. It’s dangerous either way. I have to eat this thing. If I were watching K-On or Lucky Star, this would be censored. This isn’t anime. Even though it would still be improbable for this to happen in anime, this just has to happen to me.
She’s looking at me with such pleading eyes. Begging a girl younger than her is just hard to explain. Why does my life have to be so messed up? I already have it ingrained in my mind; it gets annoying to explain by now.
“Well, itadakimasu~”
No, I am not wanting to eat this. My hands are trembling from the thought of eating this. I’m not an idiot that will stuff a huge
bunch of poison into my mouth just because I don’t want to be rude, so it’s only a small bite.
*nom*
“Hmm? How is it?” Such pleading eyes.
“It’s ok.” I’m not lying, it’s actually not deadly.
“Really! Thanks!” She looks so happy, but that just scares me a bit.
What type of character is this person supposed to be anyways? A stupidly airheaded apathetic girl is all I’ve gotten so far, but that’s nearly impossible. I heard that she can’t crack eggs, but she can make omelet. Omelet is a breakfast. Getting to the point, she might just be slightly a liar or just a hardworking person that actually cares about eggs.
“Hrm….. but I heard that you can’t crack eggs…..”
After I finished chewing, I went straight to the point. Usually I guess I wouldn’t be like this and actually talk to random people(start the conversation on purpose), but isn’t it annoying when you’re stuck in a situation like this and they act like it’s all well and fun.
“………..You need to put eggs in omelet??”
Shock. That’s the only think I can think of. What’s with this stupid comedy situation? My face is probably looking like a poker face, but this is a terrifying thing.
Even though my life will probably end in 2-3 weeks, I still want to enjoy it to the fullest. Why would I die because of something like this?
Stop with that calm and confused look Kashiwagi Yuki! You already kissed me stupidly not too long ago, so don’t cause me more trouble! Just because you’re pretty and cute doesn’t mean won’t get mad at you!
Well, yeah I should calm down. She’s looking really confused. AKB is filled with people to the extremes after all.
“So, what did you put in?”
“Mayonnaise.”
“Erm……….Next time, let me teach you how to cook.”
Stupid impulses, but I don’t want this girl to turn Japan into America. One kind of obese country is enough for this world.
That’s only an excuse, since I guess I want to help her a bit too. It was ok tasting. Sadly, if one puts in fatty ingredients, it’s only allowed if it tastes like heaven.
I’m a critic so there’s no need to cook, but I know the book stuff. There’s really no need to explain after all.
“Really! Thank you Nezu-chan!” She’s smiling like a little kid. How cute…. I mean scary…. Now, now, isn’t it normal for anyone
to get really confused at times like this?
“Hrm……. Well, I need to find somewhere to stay soon…..”
“Hmm? If you want you can stay over with me! Since we’re both girls, it won’t be a scandal. Even if it is, the other girls will help me out.”
And I said it out loud. Of course, it’s a bit hard to understand the situation with a monologue, but it’s obvious how weird it is.
If you have an idea that a scandal might come out of this, don’t suggest me staying over!
“I don’t want to cause trouble to you.” I say while looking away due to the awkwardness in my voice.
“It’s totally ok! It’s actually a bit lonely living alone.” She’s still smiling, too bright for this time at night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yuki POVI think I’m going mad. Inviting a kid over for a sleepover makes me a lolicon or something like that.
“It’s totally ok! It’s actually a bit lonely living alone.”
The only reason I’m living alone is because I don’t really want the company of other people. If I get too close, I’ll get hurt and
they’ll start hating me. It’s all because of the fact that I am BLACK. BLACK, I don’t really know how I feel when people call me that name. It’s a weird feeling, but that really isn’t important.
Nezumi-chan, or Nezu-chan as I decided is really uncomfortable. It isn’t as if I want her to feel weird, but I don’t know. She’s really thinking hard over whether or not to accept. Since I was the one that offered I can’t back away, so I’m just waiting while smiling somewhat sincerely to my surprise.
“Um……. I guess I can stay……”
“Yay!!”
I’m being so happy right now. I feel really happy. I need to extend my vocabulary, but I’m happy. I haven’t felt like this since I was a kid. Most of those smiles for AKB have been a bit fake, at least when I was smiles and all.
Life is fake, but I can tell the slightest smile on that girl’s poker face isn’t. The truth is only when humans don’t know what they’re saying or they’re drunk.
“………..”
“….It’s already late at night, so let’s go to sleep. It probably would be a bit weird if I asked you to shower with me.”
If I did, I would just be a pervert.
“………….”
Of course I’m making her nervous either way. I’m just guessing that she expects to sleep on the couch. Nezu-chan is pretty reserved after all. That’s why I need to make my move first, dragging her upstairs to the bedroom. I do live in an apartment after all.
“Um, I can sleep on the couch you know…..”
Her voice is really cute, but quiet. Nezu-chan would actually be a good seiyuu, but I don’t really know much about anime, so I won’t comment on this topic.
“Nezu-chan is the guest, so you have to sleep on the bed.”
I wonder where I’ve had this feeling before. I don’t think I knew her before this week.
“……You have to sleep on the bed too…..” Realizing what she said, her face turns red.
Nezumi is such a cute kid. But in this situation, I’m like an elder sister or the mom. Being active even in my head when it is
night is really tiring.
“Hrm~ So you want to sleep with me or you can’t sleep by yourself~”
I tease her and she blushes even harder. It seems that lack of sleep will kill everyone’s pokerface though. One time, Mariko
started acting like a kid because she hadn’t had a good sleep in days and it was really dark that night. Humans tend to lie a lot, but I guess sleep deprivation is also part of honesty.
“Muuu~”
Her pouting face is really cute. I really am turning into a lolicon.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Third PersonThe tall raven girl hugs the girl with the hoodie. Though to tell the truth, both think that sleeping with outdoor clothes on is kind of gross, Yuki feels weird asking someone that she barely knows to change and of course, Nezumi would never just go ahead and change in front of some random person. Note that she doesn’t have any spare clothes anyways.
“Oyasumi~”
Click, and the light goes out. Nezumi falls fast asleep in a cute animal position and starts breathing softly after a few minutes.
As Yuki slowly falls into the grasp of the dream and sleep world, they slowly move closer to each other unconsciously for warmth.
Nezu-chan is surprisingly childish, even though she never seemed to show it around other people. It’s not like I know her though. Once again……….Oyasu~mi……
Hrm………Yuki is really warm…..And slowly, their mouths curl up into a smile, a happy one, as the two fall deep into sleep.
I just had to write that.... Does putting more than one chapter into a post ruin the feelings? Oh yeah, and about this format, I just decided to use it some time ago.. but was too lazy to change the first few chapters into the format.... Sorry for the trouble if it was.......
Extra-A Chapter During the Eighth
“Nezu-chan, you have food on your cheek.”
After leading me to the bathroom for basic things like brushing teeth and washing her face, she tells me that I have food stuck on my cheek. I am a child, there’s no need to nag. I looked into the mirror, finding myself luckily an average height, and sees that I do have some rice on my cheek. It would be embarrassing if I cared about my relationship with people, but I don’t really have much feeling on that aspect.
She takes her index finger and takes the rice off my cheek, putting it into her mouth. That action made my face go red as a tomato. She has this playful look on her face which makes me feel a bit strange inside.
“Tehe~”
Then, she takes a moist towel and wipes my cheeks. I think to myself, ‘Why did you even eat it then?’ She rubs my cheeks as
if I was a child. So I am, but if I’m treated as one, they’ll just try to get way too close to me. ‘Close’ is a no situation, firstly my situation and secondly, the fact that you never have any allies in life, friends will always leave you behind, one takes priority
over another.
Well, that is my mindset. Seeing as to I am aware of those things because of experience, I think that most people have that part of them, even if it is hidden deep on the inside.
“Muu~”
Yuki is like a raven, pecking at me when I don’t know what to do. Normally, well actually only since my parents had that accident of theirs, I don’t make noises like that around random people. This crazy raven has already caused me to act my age. Yeah, I’m crying on the inside.
“It’s pretty late now, so let’s go sleep soon~ If you need sleepwear, I can lend you some if you want.”
It’s a strange offer, but it’s not like I would ever take up something like this.
“….No need…..”
“Hrm. Ok then.”
“Also, I found you only like 30 minutes after going out and right before going out, I changed and showered.”
There’s really no need to go into details. She’s going red. I don’t get it.
“By the way, I don’t really like taking off my hoodie, is that ok?”
Usually, I’m not so gentle as to ask for permission. Then again, the only people that I have to say this type of thing to nowadays are yakuza. Yakuza is the equivalent of mafia meaning I don’t need to be polite. Even though I’m not stuck with those idiots that use threats and stuff randomly, I don’t see the need to be nice to people like them.
“It’s ok. Everyone is different in a way.”
Yeah, that is true, but you don’t understand human beings. Don’t go looking all serious now. I flick her forehead lightly as to
signal the fact that she’s spacing out. When I space out, it just means thinking too deeply. I prefer if she just gets deletes that conversation from her mind.
“………………………”
“……..Ah, I didn’t mean to offend you…….”
Don’t take it personally. I don’t like making other people sad. Ah, that’s why I consider myself soft and naïve.
Of course if I was heartless, than I wouldn’t be considered human. That’s way too psychological for me.
Pouting face, it’s killing me.
Now I’m dying on the inside. Due to the fact that I don’t want her to feel sad, I’m patting her head gently. Never again will I go to Kashiwagi Yuki’s house. There’s this weird feeling that I get whenever I see her.
“Nezu-chan~”
“……………”
If only I wasn’t in this world, but another. Going to sleep now.
Good night~
This doesn't make sense? Well, I don't get it either despite writing it........ Think of it as a retelling from another point of view if it's really that different.... The story is crackly because I never write one chapter in one day.... it's always parts of a chapter
