My Future Wife Is Androphobic-Chapter 7 - What are you up to?

Chapter 7 - What are you up to?

Zeri was looking at Kira with a curious gaze. She was looking at him as though she was trying to scan a certain computer device. She just couldn't help but wonder again on why she wasn't afraid of him. She didn't even feel nervous as she looked at him.

Zeri usually felt like her life was in danger every time a male approached her. That was why in every situation, as soon as she saw a male start to approach her, her first reaction was to dash away and run for her life. This used to be her way of coping until she discovered the good idea of disguising herself into someone really creepy. After that, she really didn't need to run away anymore because the boys would voluntarily avoid her, causing her to celebrate secretly.

However, this person in front of her seemed different. She didn't understand why she was not afraid of him and she also didn't understand why this beautiful creature kept looking at her since yesterday. Was my creepy disguise not enough to put him off? Was there something he needed from me?

Just as Zeri was trying to figure out a reason that made some sense, the strange, beautiful guy suddenly opened his mouth.

"Hey Squirrel, don't you think we have something to talk about?" he broke the silence as he tried his best to flash a smile on his face.

Hm?! Squirrel? Did this guy just call me Squirrel? More importantly, what's with that smile? Why bother to fake a smile? Wait… we have something to talk about? What does he mean by that?

"D-do you need something from me?" Zeri finally asked. She widened her eyes as she stared at him, as if she was trying to scare him away.

However, Kira simply smiled again.

"Did you already forget our sweet first encounter?" he replied as he continued smiling sweetly at her and Zeri's heart suddenly accelerated. She still didn't get what he meant but somehow, she could feel that there might be some trouble brewing. Sweet first encounter? When was that?! What was this person talking about?

Zeri was about to ask when suddenly, Kira leaned in closer to her as he raised his phone and showed her a clip of her jumping on the wall. Zeri gasped and her eyes widened in disbelief as soon as she realized that the girl in the black mask was her.

Her big, round eyes looked at him and Kira widely smiled again as he casually put his phone back into his pocket.

"Ok class. Everybody, please take your seat." The teacher's voice suddenly rang as Zeri was still in shock while Kira simply moved again closer to her.

"Don't run away after class, okay?" He whispered near her ear before he nonchalantly went to sit on his chair just behind her.

After that, Zeri could no longer pay attention to their teacher. Her brain was busy formulating a plan. Well, she realized that she may be doomed this time. She couldn't afford to be caught up in any kind of trouble. She was just a scholar in this school for rich kids so it would be over for her once the school found out what she did. After all, Kazehara High was a school that was famous for their strict implementation of their rules. Thinking about this, Zeri could only pray that this guy was someone who was easy to reason with.

…

Finally, the bell rang. Kira was about to stand when Squirrel suddenly approach him. Her, voluntarily approaching him made Kira smirk as he leaned back on his chair. He looked like he was absolutely pleased. Don't tell me you've already fallen for my charms, huh, Squirrel?

Kira was smiling mischievously as he spoke.

"Don't just stand there. Speak." Kira said as he looked intently at her. However, Zeri didn't respond. She just stood there steadily, like a frozen statue, while she stared at him with a seemingly blank expression.

In the end, they remained silent for a few minutes. They looked like they were again locked in a staring contest and Kira was getting very impatient. Damn it! What's wrong with this girl?!

"Hey, didn't I tell you to speak?" Kira finally burst as his patience ran out. This girl was really driving him nuts. Gladly, before Kira snapped, Zeri finally decided to open her mouth.

"Can we talk outside?" she said and she quickly turned to leave.

Damn! Did you really have to stare at me for that long just to tell me those damn four words?! Do you even know how many minutes you wasted?!

Biting his lips, Kira stood and followed the annoying Squirrel. However, to his surprise, Zeri was walking so fast ahead of him that he could barely catch up.

Tch! This cheetah! What the hell's with this girl?!

Kira was again puzzled. Whenever he agreed to a girl's invitation, the girl would always look so happy she would even squeal like crazy. They even clung on him and almost never wanted to let go. And yet, this girl was distancing herself so much as if he was someone with a deadly disease?

Somehow, Kira who never experienced this kind of treatment before, was starting to seriously get pissed off. However, for some reason, a certain excitement was also brewing within him. He didn't know why but he couldn't get angry despite feeling so much annoyance at her actions.

"Where the hell are you going?" Kira could only ask himself as he kept on following her. They already left the building and yet she still didn't stop walking.

As they walked along the pathway, the girl finally halted. But just as Kira thought that it was finally the end of their journey, the girl glanced at him before she walked towards the school's mini forest.

Kira narrowed his eyes as he followed her. She still maintained the same distance from him until she reached a wall. She then stopped and turned towards him, staring at him again with those same blank eyes of hers.

Kira was about to ask when he noticed the huge tree beside her. His mouth slightly hung open because this was the tree that this ninja ghost girl climbed yesterday.

"You… what are you up to?"
