The Dead One: The Final Grudge

Chapter 16

It's been a week since Kuro allowed Mei to stay with him. Anything to keep her away from her abusive family.

He talked to Koutarou-Sensei about it and the man was furious. He told Kuro that the next time he sees his brother, he's going to have words.

Shouta had recently heard and he was jealous.

Shouta: You jerk! You have a girl to go with you at home! No fair!

Kuro rolled his eyes.

Kuro: We'll see you at school.

Shouta: Hey! Don't hang up on me!

*Hangs up*

Shouta: And he hangs up....

Although, Shouta couldn't help but smile. Kuro and Mei together. He definitely saw that coming. That's why he shipped them together.

Shouta: Took him long enough though. Told ya I was the best wingman ever~!

-The Dead One-

Kuro: Mei...? Are you sure you'll be okay cooking breakfast.

Mei: Hehehe. Of course silly! You should get some good food in your belly.

Mei's cooking was delicious to Kuro. Shouta kept exclaiming how lucky he was to have a housewife.

Kuro blushed. Mei did seem like 'Wife Material' or in Shouta's case: 'Waifu Material'.

Over the past week. Mei has shown waifu material. She is educated, can hold her own in a conversation (sometimes). She has put Kuro's needs first.

The boy actually felt lucky to have someone like her.

She cooks, cleans, and handles money really well. (Due to being rich has it's perks.)

So yes, she was waifu material.

Kuro watched as Mei sat down with pancakes, sasuages, bacon, and grits.

Mei: Hope you enjoy~~!

Kuro did felt really hungry staring at the food.

Kuro: The food looks delicious, Mei. You did a splendid job.

Mei: *Smiles*... You're welcome.

Kuro: Itadakimasu.

Mei:.....

Kuro: ???

Mei: Kuro...I...wanted to ask you something?

Kuro: Umm...Yeah. What is it?

Mei's lip was quivering as she puts her palm to her chest and let's out a small shout.

Mei: D-Do you see me as a woman?!!

Kuro:.....Eh?

That question caught Kuro off guard.

Does he...see Mei as a woman?

It was a good question...He wasn't sure how to answer that. Kuro was never good at showing his emotions. Unless it involved Shouta. When he around others,he shows constructive criticism.

But...Mei was different. Once he's around her. He lowers his boundaries and softens up.

He had no choice but to repeat back what she said in his own words...

Kuro: Are...Are you asking what do I think of you...?

Mei:....*Nods*

Kuro: *Blushes* W-Well....(Oh Fuck...I'm stuttering...I never...did that before...)
