My Future Wife Is Androphobic

Chapter 43 - Unbelievable

Kira was sitting silently as he watched his squirrel being so relentlessly hyped up. They were in a private boat for the jungle river cruise and the adventure made Zeri so thrilled she even kept on squealing, like a child who just visited a certain zoo for the first time. She even looked like she wanted to just jump out of the boat and go embrace the orangutans and crocodiles that she was seeing.

Watching her, Kira couldn't help but smile as he pinched the skin between his brows while shaking his head. He was laughing at himself. It seemed like he underestimated this girl's power and now he was utterly defeated. She really was so damn unbelievable. She was just beyond any definition.

Growing up as a young master of a wealthy family, people around Kira wouldn't dare disobey him or force him to do anything he didn't want to do. He was so used to being the absolute prince that he was, not letting anyone control him. His grandfather was the only one who could restrain him but even if his grandfather drags him like this, with Kira's stubbornness and ego, he would never give in helplessly like what was happening to him right now.

'Squirrel… what are you doing to me? You're really one dangerous species, aren't you?'

The young man daydreaming by himself as he sat there, heaved a really long and deep sigh. He looked like a problematic old man, forced to babysit a little hyper girl roaming around the jungle.

And then, out of the blue…

"SPLASH!!!!"

Kira was jolted back to reality when cold water was suddenly splashed over him.

Immediately standing up, Kira swore angrily. "F*ck, what the h –"

However, the moment his eyes fell on the girl across him, he couldn't continue swearing. The girl was chuckling as she looked at him. She looked so amused and her, laughing like that was just… it was breathtakingly adorable.

The anger in Kira's eyes abruptly disappeared. Seeing her laughing seemed to be more shocking than the water that just drenched him. Kira was overwhelmed.

And the surprise didn't stop there.

His eyes slowly widened as soon as his gaze fell on her body. Her drenched dress conformed to trace her body shape and the sight of her made Kira choked.

"Cough, cough." Kira averted his gaze away from her as he coughed under his sleeves. 'Sh*t, this is really strange. Why am I being this affected? It's not like she's n.a.k.e.d! She's just drenched Kira for heaven's sake!!'

Kira was being shocked by his very own reactions. It's not like this was his first time seeing something like this or anything. In fact, he had already seen so much, and yet here he was, freaking out just because this squirrel was drenched? Outrageous!

When Kira raised his face again, he almost stumbled and fell. Zeri was already right there, in front of him, just some feet apart.

"Are you alright?" she asked, her brows pulled together and Kira cleared his throat. He didn't answer her. Instead, he quietly untied the coat he wrapped around her waist. And then he dr.a.p.ed it on her.

"I'm fine. Wear this," he said and Zeri blinked. She looked at him curiously but she eventually listened to him.

Kira was still trying to stay cool when suddenly…

"Ahh! Look!! Gorilla!!!" she yelled, and then, she disappeared before him like a ninja and all he could do was heaved another helpless sigh.

…

Zeri finally jumped out of the boat.

She was elated as she walked towards another pathway. But then she halted and turned. When she saw that the Android was still in the boat, standing there motionless and looking like a life-sized standee, she creased her forehead and walked towards him.

"Let's go back. This is enough." He finally spoke. Zeri grabbed his hand and then, she pulled him aiming to get him out of the boat.

"Zeri Kim! We've been here for almost an hour. We have to go back now." He insisted, not budging at all.

"Let's go to the treehouse first, please. This is the last one. After this, we'll leave. I promise." She pleaded, rendering Kira speechless.

'Damn… here it goes again.'

"Please… it won't take long." She was not giving up and she kept tugging his hand.

Looking at her, Kira already knew that it seemed impossible for him to reject her. He can't possibly bring her to that place if she's sulking and unhappy. Moreover, for some reason, seeing this girl in this state quite amused him. He wanted to see more of her expression and that was why he stood his ground and just watched her quietly.

As he remained unmovable, he finally saw Zeri pouted. Kira was about to smirk and give in but all of a sudden, the girl let go of his hand and walked away.

Kira was speechless. 'DAMN! Hey, are you really leaving just like that?!'

He was about to quickly jump out to chase her when suddenly, he saw her walking back toward him again.

Kira knotted his brows in confusion.

As soon as the girl reached him, she suddenly reached out and grabbed Kira, wrapping her arms around his waist.

What she did stun Kira to the bones, but what she did next was worse. Kira's eyes almost bulged out of its sockets because Zeri attempted to lift him, obviously so she could move him out of the boat.

"MY GOODNESS ZERI KIM!!! LET GO!" he roared, shocked. "DAMN! YOU WIN, OKAY? I'LL COME WITH YOU SO LET GO NOW!"

Finally, the girl loosened her grip on him.

"Ugh! What the hell Zeri. How could you…" Kira looked so defeated as he crouched down and tugged his hair. 'God, is this squirrel really a girl? How the actual hell could she do something like this?! Where the hell did her strength come from?!'

Kira was blushing hard, extremely embarrassed.

Afraid that the girl will do something unbelievable again, Kira quickly jumped out of the boat. And as soon as he stepped on the ground, Zeri didn't give a moment to sigh and grabbed his wrist before dragging him towards the treehouse.
