Chapter 14
Housewife
Naotora is cooking some lunch for her and her girlfriend. Her parents are out on a mission, meaning she has to look after the house for any intruders. Fortunately, there is none and Mai texted her a while ago if she can come over to play. Naotora told her it was fine and decided to make a nice meal for the two of them since it's close to lunch time. She is in the process of finishing the curry with rice when she feels a light breeze blow past her. And then…arms wrap around her gently with a kiss on the neck.
"Hello there, Nao-chan~" Mai greets.
"Mai-chan…lunch isn't ready yet," the shy girl says. "I-I'm sorry, but you have to wait a bit longer."
"That's fine with me," Mai says as she cuddles her girlfriend in her arms. "I just want to stay with my Nao-chan while she cooks. Mmmm….it smells really good~"
"Mm-hmm. It'll be ready in a few minutes."
"Ehehe! Seeing you cook like this almost makes me think you're my housewife~"
Hearing Mai say that makes Naotora blush heavily. "H-H-Housewife? A-are….you sure?"
"Of course! Wearing an apron like that while cooking. Makes you look really mature~" Mai replies.
"Oh…th-thank you…" The shy girl smiles a shy smile while putting a hand toward her mouth.
"Now then, I'll leave you be so you can finish. I'll just be in the living room if you need me." Mai walk over toward the living room to turn on the television, switching through channels.
Naotora finishes lunch within a few minutes and then serves the meal to the table after telling Mai that the food's ready. Jumping from her seat happily, Mai rushes toward the table and both of them take a seat after Naotora puts the apron aside. They say Grace and dig into their food. Mai takes the first bite and her eyes sparkle in delight at the taste.
"Mmmm~! This is delicious~!" she takes another bite and puts her hand on her cheek. "Ohhhh, Nao-chan's cooking~! It feels like heaven~!"
"Ahaha! Glad you like it~" It's not the first time Naotora has cooked. She has cooked before for her family most of the time, more for dinner rather than breakfast or lunch. But doing this for her girlfriend is somewhat new, though, she's happy that she's doing this. It makes her feel really special.
After eating, Naotora takes the plates to clean them at the sink. Though, Mai gets up and hugs her from behind again gently.
"Will you ever learn?" Naotora sighs.
"Nope~" Mai replies quickly. "I just can't help but hug my cute and shy little Nao-chan~"
The shy girl stops for a moment, blushing as she turns off the sink. "Say…Mai-chan…if we…if we ever get the chance…y-you know…to go further in our relationship…" She is so red in the face that she feels like fainting right now. "I'd…I'd be happy to be your housewife."
Mai brightens and tackle hugs the shy girl to the floor. "Ohhhh, Nao-chan! I'm SOOO HAPPY!"
"Kyaaaah!" Naotora squeaks. "Get off me! You're too heavy!"
"I don't care!" Mai cheers as she nuzzles her head against her. "Let's get married! Right now!"
"What!? N-no way! Didn't hear what I just said!?"
Mai ignores her question as she keeps on cuddling her. "Ohhhh, Nao-chan! My housewife! It's soooo romantic~!"
At this rate, Naotora starts to regret what she said.
