After Responding Seriously To A MarriagePromise, I MarriedMyCuteChildhoodFriend

I : Our newlywed life has begun!

Chapter 1: I Married My Childhood Friend, But We’re Just Barely Getting By

My name is Kudou Michihisa.
I think that my appearance is a little above-average. Kouri says that I am handsome. My academic performance is decent, My physical ability is acceptable as well. I'm  just your average high school senior.
If there was something that couldn’t be considered ordinary—

“Mii-kun~ Come here for a second?"

I could hear my beloved wife’s voice calling out to me from a distance. The name of the girl in question is Kurashiki Kouri, now Kudou Kouri. My childhood friend, has been calling me by this nickname ever since we were in kindergarten.

“Oh, I'm on my way~ Wait a sec!”

Kouri is currently a senior in high school, just like me.

She is a little small for a woman, petite even, standing at around 150 centimeters tall. Her medium-short hair that smoothly falls down to her shoulders has a slight brown hue to it. She has big and cute eyes like an adorable puppy and a friendly personality. She is especially loved by those of the same sex.

She has a rather well-proportioned body, but she has a complex about her slightly small breasts. It’s a taboo to even mention them in front of her. She excels in academics and sports alike, and her communication ability is something to be marvelled at as well.

Honestly, she's too good of a wife for someone like me.

Because of this, Kouri and I are often teased and called a "lovey-dovey couple" or a "stupid couple."

Today is April 29th, and there are only 2 days for the calendar to turn to the next month. It has been about one month since we got married.

"So, what's the matter?"

Kouri, who in her casual clothes was sitting with her cheeks planted on the table, rotated her neck a little to stare at me. The eyes that looked at me didn’t have the usual vividness in them, they appeared to be a little dim.

Aah~ Something must have happened.

“Hey, listen to this~!”

“Yes, yes, I am listening.”

“There are two days left in the month, right?”

Kouri says while violently scratching her hair. Her hair is so nice too.

“Ah, your hair’s gonna be messed up.”

It can’t be helped so I reached out and gently stroked her hair. The childish gestures that she makes feel very charming.

“Funya~ Pet me some more~ Pet me."

Kouri threw her arms around me with a feverish face. She makes a sweet voice as if she was a puppy asking for attention from her master. It seems that this little Chihuahua wants to be spoiled by me. Kouri has been spoiled in a similar way for a long time. As for me, I am very weak to these types of gestures of hers. They’re so cute that it can’t be helped.

I also quite like the softness and warmth when I hug her. There’s also the pleasant scent of her hair and sweat that drifts from her body.
