"N-No Kafka, what you said still doesn't make any sense at all..." Nina clutched her head like she had a headache and struggled to process what I said. "...No matter how much I think about it, you liking is simply a nonsensical story that I simply can't believe."
"I an, just look at the age gap between us...How could you even find a hag who's as old as attractive...Not to ntion my looks, that are-"
"Wait...Let speak first before you co to your own assumptions, Nina." I interrupted Nina, who looked like she was going to go on an entire rant as to why there was no way I had a thing for her.
I then continued saying, after confirming that she was calm enough to listen to my words,
"Just like how you listened to my previous stories, do you want to know the short story of when and why I started to feel sothing for you?"
Nina nodded her frantically as she was desperate to know what made say such crazy things about her and wished to point out to where I went wrong to put on the correct route, like the older sister she was trying to be.
"Don't be upset since it's actually a really short story since it literally happened an hour ago..." I warned her, to which she nodded her head once again and gestured to to go on since she couldn't handle the tension.
"...But if you want to know when and where I first started to get interested in you, Nina, then it's probably when Mrs Keller told that there was a lady, who was also the owner of this hot spring who beat up a bunch of unruly n who ssed with the peace of this place."
"The mont I heard that there was such a righteous and courageous woman out there who didn't care about the risks of fighting with a group of n who both outnumbered her and were physically stronger than her, she imdiately piqued my curiosity, and I wanted to know her na at all costs at the mont."
I said in an enthusiastic manner, like I would've given anything to see the sight of Nina beating up those n, which made Nina stare at with a dumbfounded look on her face, like she was looking at a weirdo.
"What nonsense are you talking about, Kakfa?!...What kind of man out there would be interested in a woman who's so clearly so violent and dangerous to the extent that she can effortlessly deal with three n at the sa ti?!" Nina exclaid and looked at as if I were crazy to suggest an absurd thing, while also praising herself at the sa ti.
"Wouldn't that just scare off the man and make him want to distance himself from such an aggressive bitch, even if he has to walk to the ends of the world to do so?"
"Haha!...Well that's where you're wrong, Nina." I gave a triumphant laugh and shook my finger at her, which made Nina wonder if she had actually gone crazy.
"Unlike the other n out there who don't appreciate the worth of a woman like you, whose value can't be asured in gold, I myself am an avid enthusiast of a woman who can stand her own ground and soone who would slap back in return if I were to ever slap her."
"Even if you were to give the option of choosing between a rugged, tough Amazoness who could even take down if she wanted to and a gentle, caring lady who'd have a al prepared for every ti I ca back ho, I would choose to love the Amazoness any day...So with that comparison, you should know what type of man I am by now, right?" I asked with a prideful look on my face, as if I stood strong with my preference.
Nina herself just stared at in awe, as every word I said shocked her even more and more since it was basically going against common sense and everything she had learned and comprehended in her own life.
"Kafka...I get what you're saying since it's normal to have a preference...But to be interested in a violent woman like who beats people up for leisure is just not normal." Nina looked at with a concerned gaze and looked like she wanted to change my ways and return to the right path for my sake.
"Hmph! Who cares if it's not normal?" I harumphed indignantly and looked straight into Nina's erald-like eyes, which were full of confusion and perplexity at the mont.
"What I find beautiful is all up to , the beholder...And in my eyes, that woman who thrashed those n around for the sake of protecting soone else while not even caring for her own safety will forever be more beautiful than a lady who the whole world may see as the prettiest woman to ever exist, but who can never save herself in a ti of danger and always needs to rely on soone else for her safety." I said with bravado in my voice, like I was giving a monuntal speech about my preference in the ladies, while looking at the awestruck Nina the whole ti.
And when Nina realised that it was her that I was indirectly calling the most beautiful woman in the world, she couldn't help but blush profusely, as it was the first ti soone had praised her in such an overwhelming way.
She herself was also surprised when she felt her cheeks warm up since it had been too long since she had actually blushed so much that a reddish tone could be seen through her verdant skin. She even patted her cheeks to make sure that there was no hot patch on her skin since she felt her entire body warm up at the mont.
"And Nina! That's only how I felt about you after just hearing about what you did!" I slapped the sofa like I was telling her to wake up from her daze and listen to since my story wasn't over just yet. "Just imagine what I felt when I saw the trio earlier on the ground with bruises all over their bodies, showcasing the strength and bravery of that very woman!"
"W-What?...What did you feel?"
Nina suddenly shrieked when she got scared out of her dreamy state after hearing the sound of my hand slamming against the cushion and unconsciously followed along with what I was saying.
"It wasn't what I felt, Nina!...It was what my heart felt at that mont since it was beating like crazy, as if I had just t the love of my life!" I exclaid in a rather dramatic manner, like I was in a 17th-century play, which enamoured Nina even more, who was caught up in the energetic and lively mood around as I told my story.
And to add more emotion to this little play I was putting on, I grabbed Nina's hand, which was free to hold since she was too into what I was telling her to care about her hand, and folded her fingers up to form a fist.
I then put both my hands over hers until they fully covered her soft little hand and started to compress her hand with a certain rhythm, as if I were pumping her hand that was balled up, and then said to Nina, who had just found out that her hand was hijacked by ,
"Do you feel this, Nina?...Do you feel how your fist continuously feels like it's being compressed and released to the extent that it even hurts a little?"
"That's exactly how my heart felt the mont I saw the example you made of those three in the lobby, and it made realise that the love of my life wasn't so far away and was actually the owner of this quaint little place." I tightly held onto Nina's hand, which I could actually feel warming up, along with her face, which was turning even more flushed.
"S-Stop joking, Kafka! There's no way you felt that way after witnessing the brutality I had made in the lobby!" Nina pulled her hand away from mine in a frantic manner with a flustered look on her face, which was rare to see from soone as fearless as her, and she looked like she refused to believe my words.
She then continued saying, while staring at her hands like she could still feel the coldness from holding mine, "...And if you actually did feel that way after seeing such a scene, then that simply ans that you're soone who needs to get his head checked imdiately."
"Well, I guess on your orders, I'm going to have to get to visit the psychiatrist tomorrow...Do you know any places nearby?" I said with my lips curled up, which made Nina harumph and glare at for joking around in this ss of a situation.
"But before I go to the hospital, let finish telling you my story first, if that's fine with you..." I said, to which Nina hesitantly nodded her head since, even though she found every word I said to be ridiculous and impossible to believe, she also couldn't help but want to hear all of what I had to say and was avidly looking forward to what I was going to say about her next.
Even though she was quite reluctant to let continue since everything I said sounded quite delusional to her, she had to admit that my previous bunch of sweet whispers really did make her feel good about herself and made her lips unconscious curl up, so after going back and forth in her head, she agreed to my request and was full of curiosity to know what other crazy stuff I was going to say.
