Housewife
by
Donny Cheng
UN inspector. The representative sent to watch over the Earth
Defense Force during the war with Rara. An impressive title, Akane
mused. Somehow that had been stripped from her when the worlds
merged, leaving her a more awe inspiring title in 'housewife.'
"Dear, I can't find my socks!" Ken yelled out from the bedroom.
He used to say that to her alot before the merging too back on their
world. Which? The parallel world, she supposed, if they used Kazuki
as the focal point. Back then, she would have yelled at him to stop
fooling around and quickly get down to the command centre. However,
there was a slight difference this time around with the inclusion of
the word 'dear'. She had wondered about the truth in 'blushing' bride
and now she knew. "D-dear, I put a fresh pair in your shoes!"
She sighed when she heard the front door being slammed. It was at
the same time a sigh of relief and of disappointment. She had hoped
he would come into the kitchen to get his kiss goodbye. Part of that
thought process shocked her, as she was sure it came from neither her
nor the other world her.
She had heard of people skipping steps in the dating process to the
kissing stage, the proverbial third date. However, skipping the very
first date, kiss, engagement, wedding, honeym... Akane scrubbed the
dishes harder. This world seemed to have given her a new set of
memories along with the memories of her other self, which wasn't
really different except that she didn't have the opportunity to get to
know the current occupents of their house. It was this new set that
disturbed her the most.
Had Kazuki and Mitsuki given it to her? It didn't seem possible.
They matched some idle thoughts she had had about how her wedding
would go, which neither child should know. She had compared notes
with Ken, and it seemed they shared the same memories of things that
never happened to them in their lives before. She forced her mind
away from some experiments they had did in bed together to some more
innocent thoughts about how some of their dates have gone. Well...
the one where they took several nights to decide on the material of
the ropes... Akane turned off the cold water tap, so the water was
scalding hot.
She knew that she would never have gone to a science convention as a
get away together. Ken definitely would not be taking a shower
everyday had they not started to get intimate. Akane shook her head
again to clear away those thougths again, but she was reluctant to
leave Ken out himself. He had started to maintain some measure of
excersize. His sense of what clothes match was infinitely better.
One thing that didn't change was that he stubbornly refused to shave
cleanly. Truthfully, she only bothered him about it because it always
got him riled up. She loved those little stubbles when he nuzzled
against her neck. Especially fun was when he lowered his head to pay
attention to other areas.
Akane looked around to make sure no one was looking, before she
couldn't contain herself and let out a girlish giggle. Jeez. She
hated when that happened. She straightened herself out and finished
off with the dishes.
