My Wife Is A Zombie

Chapter 4 : Family

You really want to run away right now. Because the girl, which was the zombie you have segs with, also gave birth to your son, is putting a kitchen knife on your neck.

"It must be fun hah… Creampied me then left me there… Bearing this child and raising him alone for years just so you came back and didn't recognize us at all?" - The girl, who had taken the helmet off. Also the reason she had the helmet on was for you to recognize her better.

The girl said calmly, in a monotone, as she has no feelings in these words.

"I- I'm sorry-" - You felt really guilty, but scared for your own life more now. "B- But wasn't it you left me first?"

"I came back later for you but you disappeared… without any trace… Did you know how hard it was for me to forget you?" - The girl pushes the knife in, you can feel neck being wounded.

"I- I'm sorry…"

As you were having the peaceful talk with the girl, your hair is being pulled, by the little boy with white hair, named Nero.

"Papa! Papa!"

He's a cute energetic boi, who enjoys playing with his father by turning him bald.

“Nero stop, you’re going to kill your father.” - The girl said to their son.

“Aren’t you killing me right now?” - You whispered.

She heard it, she heard it well. But she didn’t do anything about it, but to take the knife back and stand up, then walk away to the kitchen.

“Anyways since you’re back after all these years… Why don’t you play with Nero while I prepare dinner for the family?” - The girl said as she entered the kitchen, you could barely hear her footsteps, her way of walking seemed so lifeless, her actions were still like a zombie.

You feel safe again for now, picking up Nero, who is canonically your own son, that you didn’t know you had for all these years. Seeing your son being happy to play with you just really makes you feel guilty.

He has white hair, just like his zombie mother, but aside from that there isn’t any visible sign for a zombie, let alone the Honkai infection on his body. Like he’s a normal human baby.

“Dinner’s ready.”

You heard the girl’s voice from the kitchen. It’s incredibly quiet that you could barely hear it, you walked into the kitchen with Nero on your hands anyways.

On the table, some dishes for an ordinary family dinner were served on plates, there’s even a porridge bowl, which looks like it’s for Nero.

The girl took Nero from your hands, and placed him on a tall chair. You all sat down together. With this awkward silence mostly from you, because you don’t know what to talk about.

You saw some small pieces of cooked meat in the dishes, you worried for a second before asking her a question.

“Um… Where did you get the meat from…uh…” - You asked nervously.

The girl didn’t say anything, she spoon fed Nero the porridge, and then glanced over the corner of the room, where you can see a set of arrows sitting there, with a bow being displayed on the bookshelf.

“You know how to use that?” - You asked another question, of course, no answer from the girl.

Nero just accidentally slapped the spoon away, making the girl stand up and get another spoon for her son.

“... So… What’s your name?” - You asked the question, finally, at last. Like you can’t just have a kid with someone you had brutal segs with without knowing her name when she’s inviting you for the family dinner and you’re the part of this small family.
