"Absolutely not!"
"Or rather, it's impossible, isn't it?"
Perhaps it was because he was pinned against the wall, or perhaps it was because Megumi's Sharingan were spinning at an unprecedented speed, but Sawara Kiri's words came out with extreme directness.
"Really?"
Miss Megumi stared at him, her small nose slightly wrinkled.
"When have I ever lied to you?" Sawara Kiri retorted.
...
"But, but you're still at that woman's house so late..." Uchiha Megumi seemed to want to maintain her angry demeanor, but her tone softened considerably without her realizing it.
She suddenly seemed a bit timid.
However, what's wrong with having strong possessiveness towards someone you like?
On the contrary, Sawara Kiri suddenly became firm at this moment, righteous and bold:
"Megumi, don't you trust me?"
"I didn't say that."
Under his eloquent series of retorts, Uchiha Megumi, who had just seemed ready to devour him whole on the spot, suddenly found herself at a disadvantage.
However, Sawara Kiri, who had the upper hand, did not press his advantage, but instead soothed her:
"Alright."
"I've been working with the big boss until now, and I haven't really eaten anything. I'm practically starving to death."
"With our relationship, how tiring would it be to keep doubting each other?"
The young man's tone was gentle, and despite just being pressed against the wall, he was completely unaffected by the heavy-girl effect, his smile as bright and cheerful as usual.
Hearing him say this, Miss Megumi, who had waited for several hours in the cold wind, immediately felt a little regretful.
She accidentally exposed a little bit of her 'true self' in front of Kiri.
Miss Megumi couldn't help but sigh in her heart, and whispered:
"Kiri..."
Sawara Kiri, however, seemed to pay no mind, and said gently:
"As an apology, you have to treat me to a meal."
"My stomach is rumbling."
Uchiha Megumi now started to blush, scratching her cheek with her fingertips: "At this hour, there probably aren't many shops open."
"Why don't we go to my house? I still have a lot of ingredients left, and the table is big. I can make something you like..."
"No, no, no, no—"
Sawara Kiri's smiling facade almost broke, and he quickly said: "I know there's a small ramen stall on the street nearby. It should still be open at this hour."
"I wonder if Megumi would mind."
Uchiha Megumi looked up: "As long as Kiri likes it, I'm fine with anything."
As she said this, Sawara Kiri's facial muscles became even more rigid.
Megumi...
Was it always this heavy feeling before?
"Slurp, slurp, slurp."
"So, gulp, what exactly is your relationship now?"
"Don't ask, keep eating."
Sawara Kiri said, while picking out the narutomaki and char siu from the small dish and putting them into Megumi's noodle bowl.
He had just discovered a small pattern.
Miss Megumi would never refuse anything he gave her.
Therefore, to interrupt her eating commentary, in these twenty minutes, he had already added six slices of char siu, three bags of fish cakes, and half a bowl of noodles to Megumi's bowl.
Sawara Kiri was a person who didn't believe in giving up easily.
Eating, and he still couldn't shut her up?
This time, however, Miss Megumi clearly became smarter.
She didn't even care about a maiden's modesty, quickly picked up her noodle bowl, blocked Kiri's chopsticks, and then slurped down the noodles and soup cleanly.
"Phew—"
She let out a long breath.
Super full.
If Kiri-kun kept feeding her, she would definitely throw up.
However, as she put down the noodle bowl, she suddenly realized something, her face flushed, and she turned her head, not daring to meet Sawara Kiri's gaze.
"Megumi must be very hungry too, right?"
"I heard the Security Force has been very busy lately."
"Ah, that..." The girl slightly turned her head, "I'm not usually like this."
"What does it matter?" Sawara Kiri didn't care at all, and smiled, "Megumi looked like she was really enjoying her food just now!"
"Hmph."
Under the table, the girl's feet, as pure as moonlight, playfully kicked his leg, but even the touch was soft and gentle, making one want to reach out and grasp them.
One couldn't tell at all the fierce look she had half an hour ago, ready to erupt at any moment and take someone down with her.
Sawara Kiri became even more cautious in his heart.
"You two have a great relationship!"
"Just got off work?"
The middle-aged owner behind the small food cart smiled as he looked at the two of them.
It seemed that just their youthful appearance could evoke memories of his most beautiful time.
"Yes, we did."
Sawara Kiri smiled politely: "Your noodles are also very delicious. We'll definitely come back often."
"That's very kind of you." The middle-aged owner smiled, and then advertised, "My son also opened a noodle cart on Konoha's main street recently. His name is Teuchi."
"If you can, please also take care of his stall over there. His cooking skills are also quite good."
"Eh?" Sawara Kiri looked a little surprised, "Boss, you look so young though."
"Heh, my health isn't good."
"Two more years of work, and I should be retiring."
After a short break and some chatting, the two, fully satisfied, slowly began their walk home.
However, due to Miss Megumi's strong insistence and the fact that it was closer to his house, Sawara Kiri didn't have the chance to walk Megumi home today, and instead headed towards the Sawara Residence first.
At this moment, the two of them were like a young couple who had just finished their first date, simply walking side by side on the road, embracing the night wind, and feeling utterly content.
As for the small 'unpleasantness' earlier at the Senju Residence's entrance, it was like dandelions blown away by the wind, as if it had never existed.
The already short walk passed quickly.
Uchiha Megumi slightly scuffed her shoe tips, as if trying to slow down.
Unfortunately, as soon as they turned the corner of the next alley.
A small figure had already appeared at the entrance of the Sawara Residence.
"Ah!"
As soon as she saw them, Sawara Yuki pointed at Megumi and cried out:
"It's you again, you home-wrecker!"
"Yuki!"
Sawara Kiri called out, seemingly displeased: "You can't be so rude. This is a very good friend of your brother."
Then he turned his head: "I'm sorry, Megumi—"
"It's okay."
However, when he turned to look, he saw Uchiha Megumi's face suddenly break into a brilliant smile as she looked at Sawara Yuki.
For no reason, Sawara Kiri's heart skipped a beat.
"Kiri-kun, can you go inside first?"
Miss Megumi clasped her hands together, tilted her head at him, and requested with a somewhat cute smile: "Yuki and I have some girl talk to have."
"Hmm?"
Sawara Kiri was stunned.
"That's right!"
Sawara Yuki, on the other hand, became energized, puffing out her cheeks as she angrily put her hands on her hips:
"Yuki also has something to say to her!"
"No, I'll just stay here..."
"Alright~"
"Onii-chan, hurry inside, the bathwater is ready!"
Sawara Kiri's words were cut short as Yuki impatiently pushed him, urging him repeatedly until she shoved him through the door.
When she turned around, the energetic Yuki was already prepared for a battlefield showdown.
She didn't care what others would do; she couldn't tolerate it one bit!
That woman looked soft and gentle, she must have used this deceptive facade to trick onii-chan's feelings. In reality, she might be a two-faced, perverted green tea girl who had been eyeing onii-chan's body for a long time!
Even if she wasn't, she had to be as much as possible!
To protect the best big brother in the entire Ninja World from demons and monsters, she had been prepared for battle since she was very young!
Even the nastiest words, she could say them.
Yuki puffed out her small chest at the thought.
(Inhale)
"I'm telling you—"
However, Yuki had just begun.
Her equally clear blue eyes met a pair of scarlet ones.
The tomoe spun.
Thought and action paused for just a moment, and her small figure was instantly pinned against the wall in a 'Sawara Kiri-style wall slam' by the older sister in front of her.
"Thump."
Yuki's entire body trembled, her pores constricting.
What happens when a fake tsundere meets a true yandere?
Spell interruption!
Uchiha Megumi then looked down at her, her gaze seemingly licking over the girl's figure inch by inch, like a beast at the top of the food chain, eyeing its prey below.
Shamelessly.
Indeed, it should have been like this long ago.
Previously, because there were virtually no threats among Kiri's peers, even she had unconsciously become like Kiri, a herbivore, seemingly carefree towards all enemies around her.
It wasn't until that old woman Tsunade appeared and strange rumors began circulating in the village that Uchiha Megumi suddenly woke up.
The person she cared about was not unwatched.
This wouldn't do.
Occasionally, she should take the initiative.
The girl leaned down slightly, getting close to Sawara Yuki's face, until their eyelashes could almost touch.
"Long time no see, Yuki."
"Looking closely at this distance, you really are a cute child."
"I remember you've been very clingy to Kiri since you were little, haven't you?"
Miss Megumi narrated in a soft, gentle voice, yet there was no emotion discernible in her tone, instead giving off a sticky and cold sensation, like a snake crawling on one's body. Her volume was also lowered to a level only the two of them could hear:
"However, as the cutest little sister in the world."
"You're not allowed to lay a hand on him, okay?"
"You—!"
Sawara Yuki suddenly reacted, her eyes wide, just about to say something.
The next moment, she heard Uchiha Megumi suddenly say in a threatening whisper:
"After all, Yuki, you wouldn't want to see Kiri-kun forcibly hypnotized into 'my shape' by the Sharingan, would you?"
"Right?"
"Hm?!"
At her words, Yuki froze.
This bad woman.
How, how could she do that!?
