Change

" I'm back! "

Shu yelled, as he landed in front the house with a smile on his face, proceeding to walk into the household after a second of thinking

" Oh hey Shu "

Yuyen said, waving at the boy to then turn her attention toward the chess game Ayami and Elena were playing, sitting down on a coach whilst she watched

" Hey "

Shu replied, waving back at her to then turn his eyes to the right, glancing over at Vivian who avoided his gaze keeping her eyes on the game

" Where's my food? "

Shu questioned, turning his attention over to Ayami, who slowly rose her right finger, pointing at the kitchen

" Thanks "

He said, following the direction she pointed at, walking in, looking around only to find his plate of food on top of a small table

" Oh, this is good "

Shu said as he walked out of the kitchen with a spoon on his hand and his mouth filled with food

" You like it? "

Ayami questioned, as she turned her attention over to the boy now that the game was finished and her mother won

" Yeah it's good, you cook very well

Shu replied as he watched her stand and walk over to him, glancing at the food and then at his face

" Well, we're going to marry right? I need to be able to do this much "

Ayami said as she patted his back, smiling somewhat as she then pointed at the ground

" Sit, it's bad for your stomach if you eat while standing up "

She added, to which Shu nodded, doing as she said and slowly sitting on the ground seconds later

" Ayami "

Shu said as he looked up at her, watching her stare at the new chess game her mother was having, this time against Vivian

" Yes? "

She replied, slowly turning her face toward him, seeing him joyfully eat the food she made, which of course was more than a compliment for her

" Did you eat already? "

Shu questioned, to which Ayami declined, shaking her head in disapproval

" Then sit, have some of mine "

Shu said as he patted the floor next to him as if to tell her that he wanted her to sit there

" No it's fine I can jus— "

" I don't care, sit "

He said, Interrupting her with a smile on his face, which caused her to sigh in defeat, sitting down where he wanted him to sit

" Open your mouth "

He ordered as he filled up his spook with rice, as Ayami simply listened, slowly parting her lips, soon her teeth, opening her mouth for him

" Aww "

Soon the tip of the spoon went into her mouth, closing it the second she felt the spoon In her tongue, feeling as it slipped out of her mouth, beginning to chew seconds later

" Do you like it? "

Shu questioned, as Ayami simply closed her mouth, chewing on the food she cooked, looking around, suggesting that she was trying to find a taste in the rice

" Yeah it's good. I guess I can really cook huh? "

Ayami replied, smiling as she then lowered her hand, moving it away from her mouth only to place it on top of her naked thighs

" Want some more? "

He asked, as she simply nodded, opening her mouth so he could place the spoon inside, which he did, filling her mouth with rice and meat

" Now it's my turn "

She said, as she took the spoon away from his hand, still chewing on the food whilst she did it, to then fill the spoon with rice

" Open your mouth "

She ordered, as Shu quickly did as she said, opening his mouth wide enough for the spoon to fit

" Uh— "

Vivian exclaimed, as everyone in the room simply watched the couple share the boy's food

" Wha- "

Ayami's face began to change color's turning from white to completely red, quickly dropping the spoon on the plate, running out of the living room and into her room, leaving the poor Shu to wait

" Um—Shu, she left "

Tristen whispered, as he walked out of the bathroom with a towel around his neck, to stop the water drops that fell from his wet hair onto his back

" huh? What? why? "

He exclaimed, looking around in confusion, as everyone simply stared at him, although his childish self had disappeared he was still clueless about common things

" Figure it out, she's in her room "

Tristen said, pointing at the door to her room, making the boy sigh as he simply placed his plate on the floor, preparing himself for a long talk

" Man it's awkward living in this house "

Tristen whispered as he watched Shu walked into Ayami's room, seconds later turning his attention over to the chess game

" I agree "

Yuyen said, adding to what the boy said, watching the game with a face of irritation

" Well of course you'd agree, you're the one who's jealous "

Tristen replied, sighing as he walked toward the kitchen being glared at by Yuyen

" What did you just say? "

She questioned as she quickly stood up from the couch, watching the boy's back, seeing as he entered the kitchen

" You heard me "

Tristen said, walking out of the kitchen with a cookie on his hand, proceeding to take a bite out of it as he stared at the girl with a calm expression

" Everyone here knows you like Shu, and that you're jealous that Ayami was the one who took him for herself "

He added, taking another bite out of the cookie, as he then picked up the plate Shu left, taking it back to the kitchen, leaving it beside the sink for someone else to clean

" Tristen "

Vivian said, as she watched her son walk out of the kitchen with a small yawn. He seemed to be more confident in himself, and spoke more freely. Of course he was very dependable person before he met these new people, but he's improved, he's become better, but every time she stared at him, she felt more and more distant from him as time passed, only because she didn't want to admit that it was Shu who caused the boy's change

" What is it mother? Do you need anything? "

The boy questioned, staring at his mother with a calm expression, throwing the last piece of his cookies inside of his mouth, chewing it down to the point where he could perfectly swallow it

" Nothing. Forget I said anything "

She whispered, as she turned her attention back to the chess game.
