Her life at home has improved immensely ever since her and her husband’s hearts have connected, but that’s just the problem! Why NOW? Ever since knowing her lover in junior high, their relationship was been so LACKING. It doesn’t make sense that he’s suddenly so thoughtful and appreciative of Shinobu’s efforts! Did he finally realize that romance can be rekindled? Is it just that he’s been hiding such a suave side from her? It’s possible.
Yet, that doesn’t explain his change in more subtle aspects. Kosaku started cooking out of the blue, his long nails, using an actual blade to shave despite usually getting burns from it, stealing to pay rent, and even spending time with her. He’s changed, somehow. Shinobu has been letting it slide due to finding all this quite appealing, but it didn’t lull the nagging worry in the back of her mind. Tonight...she thinks she will finally gain the courage to ask what on earth is happening.
The housewife broke the silence in their bedroom. Before the two could settle in for the night, she decided now would be the time to confront Kosaku. She swallowed nervously as fingers intertwined close to her chest. Shinobu felt so SILLY to even be bringing this subject up. Of course this is the man she married! How can she doubt it when she can see him with her own eyes? Every inch of him looks the complete same. Surely her husband will dismiss the subject or even laugh. Alas, she much rather be mocked than to be haunted with these thoughts.
When gaining his attention, she took a couple of steps forward to be able stand before him. Upon tilting her head back to be able to gaze into his eyes, she couldn’t help but wrap her arms around him into a tight embrace. That’s when Shinobu buried her face into his chest, clenching the back of his shirt now with dainty fingers. Her voice that echoed the room once more sounded a tad distraught, but soft. Hopefully, he will be able to tell that she’s WORRIED.
