Chapter 5 - Uns.e.xy
Kira was speechless.
The weapon he thought was lethal actually didn't work on her. No emotion even appeared on her blank face as if he didn't just use his not so secret weapon; as if she didn't hear him at all.
This girl… this squirrel.
"Yes, if you don't mind." he said as he rested his gorgeous face on his knuckles.
The girl, on the other hand, blinked as she slowly turned her gaze back to her food. She looked quite disappointed and sad like she really didn't intend to share the food with him for real. She didn't think that he would agree this time around.
"But… I don't have an extra spoon. Next time--"
"I don't mind using yours." He interjected and then he took her lunch box right away, and using her spoon, he ate her lunch.
The girl's mouth slightly hung open as she was obviously surprised by what just happened and that little change in her expression made Kira smile as he chewed her food while staring at her.
"Mmn, this is good." He said as he savored the food in his mouth. It was just rice and vegetables. The food was definitely cheap, and it was Kira's first taste of a commoner's food. However, he was surprised at how good it tasted. He didn't think such food would taste so good.

"D-do you make a habit of doing this? I mean, using other people's cutlery… That's dangerous. What if I…"
The girl's tone was filled with disbelief. However, Kira just showed her his most dazzling smile that could pierce right through any girl's heart.
"This is the first time I have done something like this," he said, but the girl just acted as if what he said wasn't interesting at all. He was expecting her to talk back so that he could hook her into a conversation but nothing came out of her mouth.
Kira then put another spoonful into his mouth again and he savored it as he stared at her, still waiting for her to talk. However, what she said the next moment almost made him choke to death.
"Are you that hungry?" she asked blankly.
Kira's brain seemed to have halted for a moment. He didn't know how to react. He was expecting her to ask about why he didn't mind using her spoon when he had never done it before, but what the hell was this?
The girl looked at him with an inexplicable expression. She looked at him in a way that seemed worried that he might devour all her food and leave nothing for her.
Kira could only cough slightly as he turned his face away from her. He couldn't believe this girl at all. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He had never gone to so much effort before for anyone and if it was any other girl, they would already feel some sort of romantic excitement. But this girl in front of him didn't seem to care about that at all, instead, she was worried about her food? What the hell's going on? Have I been sent into an alternate universe or something?
"Hey, Kira! What're you doing up there?"
Rei's voice made Kira cleared his throat as he gave the lunch box back to the girl with an unaffected expression.
"This tastes delicious," he said with a smile and then he turned around and walked towards the edge of the roof. His gaze then fell onto the man with a mischievous smile below him.
Rei on the other hand was puzzled because Kira's face suddenly turned sour. He just called out to Kira to make their cunning plans feel like a natural occurrence but somehow, it seemed like what he got in return was a look of annoyance from his friend. Eh, why was he mad?
Kira threw the ball at him with such a strong force, making Rei's mischievous smile disappear.
God, why is he mad? Why? What happened up there?
After a short while, Kira turned towards the girl. He moved closer to her with his usual smile.
"We're going to eat at the café, wanna come with us?" he said, trying to redeem himself. He was sure that an invitation like this coming out of his mouth would instantly make the girl's eyes sparkle with pride and excitement, like it did to the many girls he used this trick on. This made him confident that she would accept since no girl had ever rejected his invitation before. However, the Squirrel girl just looked at him with the same blank eyes and simply said;
"No, thanks. I like eating alone."
She then nonchalantly turned her head back into her lunch box and started eating while Kira just stood there, speechless, with his mouth hanging slightly open. Kira couldn't believe he was being treated this way again. He had never imagined that he would ever be ignored to this extent by anyone as long as he lived. But it had finally happened; his first rejection.
This little uns.e.xy squirrel...
However, he was supposed to feel pissed and annoyed but a mysterious smile carved on his handsome face instead, as he kept staring at her. A surge of something akin to an intense excitement right before a great game began was suddenly reflected in his gorgeous eyes, almost making the warm breeze suddenly feel chilly.
"Okay then, next time, let's eat together." he said with a warm smile and he was about to leave when he saw a certain black cap that looked exactly like the one the ghost girl was wearing, lying on top of her bag and Kira's eyes widened.
This squirrel is the ninja ghost girl from yesterday?
