Chapter 30 Mr. Spider 06 All are sweet troubles. ...
Humph, if He tells you to go upstairs, you have to go upstairs?
You stood up, rushed to the window and pulled the curtains.
The lamb belatedly turned his head, but the curtains had already completely blocked the view outside the window.
You turned your head nonchalantly: "I forgot to draw the curtains. It's late. Let's go to bed."
"……OK."
When you came back, you turned off the lights in the room.
Half an hour later.
“Little lamb, little lamb…” you called softly.
The only answer you get is your bestie's extraordinarily sweet snoring. It seems she has fallen into a deep sleep.
You tiptoed over your best friend, carefully put on your slippers, moved to the door little by little, opened the door a crack, and slipped out through the gap.
Well, you are just afraid that if you don’t go to see Kasa, he will run away the next day.
You turned on the light in the hallway and walked up.
The door to the utility room was ajar. It seemed your actions had been predicted by a spider.
You pushed the door open.
What you see is a room full of white spider webs, and Kasa is sitting in the center of the spider web, looking at you with smiling eyes.
The pure white silk thread, the pitch-black shell, the ferocious spider body, and the soft body lines, the extreme contrast makes it look more like a work of art.
“I knew you would come,” He said.
You pretended to be impatient and asked, "Why did you call me here..."
The spider crawls along the spider web and comes to you.
Strangely enough, the bulging belly of the spider is not so scary in your eyes now, but becomes cute.
Kasa lowered his head, his voice soft and gentle: "Of course it's because I want to see you."
"Don't you want to see me?" He asked again, looking at you with clear and warm eyes.
I don't know why, but facing that look from Him, my back felt numb, and the heat in my heart suddenly spread like wildfire, gradually igniting my face.
Even so, you still answered stubbornly: "No."
You think that you actually like Kasa in your heart, but your reason tells you that there are too many things to consider and bear when being with a monster.
You just want to be an ordinary person.
"It makes me so sad when you say that."
Although he said so, there was actually no sadness on Mr. Spider's face.
"You can go find another human, maybe someone would be willing... Well, I came to see you not because I like you, but because I want to explain this to you."
Unlike what you imagined, Kasa's expression was too calm.
He said calmly, "Well, I understand."
Logically, you should feel more relaxed after talking things out, but at the moment you're feeling inexplicably down, but you try your best not to show it, and just say with a smile: "I understand... If you don't have anywhere else to go, you can stay at my house for now."
"If there's nothing else, I'll go back to bed."
After saying that, you turned around and prepared to leave, but unexpectedly found that your shoes were firmly stuck to the floor, and your body was entangled with circles of silk threads without you knowing when.
You looked up in surprise.
Kasa took a few steps forward and put his face close to you: "Is that human better looking than me? So you like him more than me?"
You were stunned for a moment: "Are you still eavesdropping on our conversation?"
He explained seriously, "It can't be called eavesdropping. My hearing is far superior to yours. I can easily detect even the sound of a pin drop, let alone the sound of your voices."
"What do you mean compared to you..." You said, a little annoyed, "I didn't say I don't like you anymore."
"Lying is not a good habit."
Kasa raised his hand and touched your hair, his delicate eyes curved like two crescent moons: "You may not be able to hear how fast your heart beats when you see me."
Your face turned even redder. "I was just scared! My heart beats faster when I'm scared!"
"Oh?" Mr. Spider tilted his head. "Is that so?"
After a while, His face slowly approaches you, so close that you can feel His breath brushing against your face and His long eyelashes are about to touch your skin.
The closer you are, the clearer you can see.
Her skin was so delicate and fair that not even a trace of pores could be seen. Her pupils were a light brown, like two crystal-clear gemstones. Her lips were very close to the color of rose petals, and her texture was soft and without any lines. She had a light and natural watery glow, and she looked very kissable...
He raised his head again, his eyes filled with understanding: "Hmm? Are you really scared?"
You, who had already followed your instinct and subconsciously wanted to stick close to him, froze in place: "..."
You were so angry that you were jumping up and down: "Damn it! You cunning spider! Let me go!"
But he was tied up so tightly that he couldn't run away even if he wanted to.
"Why are you tying me up here?!"
Kasa raised his finger and poked your puffy cheek: "I can't help it, otherwise you wouldn't stay and talk to me."
“…Okay.” You gave up. “What do you want to talk about?”
Kasa's face was dazed for a moment: "Let's talk about... the day when I first met you?"
"First time seeing you?" You looked confused. "Wasn't it just two days ago?"
"Of course not." Kasa's face showed a nostalgic look: "It was ten years ago when I first met you."
He looked at you intently: "You were still in school then, with short hair and a small figure, about ten centimeters shorter than you are now."
You started school a year earlier than others, so your development was relatively slow. It was indeed after you graduated from high school that you grew a lot taller.
You were so surprised that your eyes widened: "...Didn't you say that repaying a favor was a lie?"
"Yeah, I lied to you. I haven't had any contact with you. I've just been observing you secretly."
Kasa picked you up horizontally and put you on the spider web. Sitting on the spider web feels like sitting on a hammock, soft and bouncy, very comfortable.
"My original nest is on the mountain near your school. I am an alien, without parents or any other kind. I am neither human nor spider."
"...that little monkey mountain?"
Actually, you don’t know what the name of that mountain is. It’s just because someone saw monkeys on it, so everyone calls it Little Monkey Mountain.
"Do you call it Little Monkey Mountain?" Kasa smiled. "It's quite cute."
"What was it originally called?"
“…There were humans living on the mountain before. They called it Mount Kasa.”
You suddenly realized: "So when I asked you what your name was, you answered Kasa."
Kasa's tone was very calm: "Yes, I don't need a name, and no one has named me."
You glanced at Kasa, and although you didn't see any expression on his face, you felt a little uncomfortable in your heart, and then you remembered something.
"I've been...into that mountain before."
During the day, some people at the high school reunion talked about this matter.
At that time, the study pressure was huge and everyone was always looking for something to relieve stress. Someone in the class suggested that we imitate those horror movies and organize a courage test, and the destination was Little Monkey Mountain.
You were not interested in this thing at first, but when you heard that Chen Yuhang was also going, you immediately pulled Xiaoyang to sign up.
Although you have forgotten the process of the test of courage, there is one key thing that still left a deep impression on you.
That's when you're lost.
"Let me think about it..."
You actually have a very deep impression of the part about getting lost, but because the process was a bit strange, after a long time, you also doubted the authenticity of this incident, and always felt that you might have confused reality and dreams.
At that time you were walking with the lamb, but the lamb was very timid. After walking a short distance, he said he didn't want to go any further and wanted to go back.
You are much braver, and naturally you don’t want to give up until you run into the boy you secretly love, so you choose to continue climbing by yourself, but in the end you don’t know where you ended up.
When you come to your senses, you find yourself surrounded by deep mountains and old forests. Only the chirping of insects and birds can be heard. All you can see is pitch black. When the cold wind blows, you are really scared. You try to go back but end up back in a circle. You have no choice but to wait there.
You think that you won’t be able to find the way if you walk blindly, so it’s better to conserve your energy. Your classmates will probably notice that you are missing and will definitely come looking for you.
But it is too scary to be alone in this wilderness, and there is no one to talk to, so you can only squat on the side of the road and talk to the plants on the mountain to dispel the fear in your heart.
After waiting for a long time, no one came to find you. You were tired and hungry, and you regretted why you came to participate in this damn test of courage. You cried and prayed to God in your heart.
The amazing thing is... at that moment, your body suddenly started moving on its own, out of your control, and finally you actually managed to find your way back.
At first you thought it was a vision from the gods, then you thought it might be hallucinations caused by exhaustion, but now you probably know what’s going on.
“…Is that you?”
Kasa turned to look at you, his eyes full of smiles: "You are talking so much, I can't stand it anymore. I didn't want to intervene, but the little girl was crying so miserably, I couldn't bear it."
You have mixed feelings: "Okay, I didn't expect that I'm the one who should repay the favor."
Kasa hesitated for a moment and placed his hand on the back of your hand. He lowered his eyes and said, "That was the first time I found a human being interesting."
Your fingers moved, but in the end you didn't pull your hand out. You just lowered your head and pursed your lips: "That's because you haven't seen enough."
"That's not the case." Kasa blinked, "I've seen many more humans than you think."
You are completely helpless.
"Okay, I know you like me very much and have liked me for a long time."
"Then what?"
You turned your head, feeling like your face could boil an egg right now: "And then what then?"
Kasa replied confidently: "My gratitude is fake, but I don't mind you repaying the favor."
“…It’s so noisy.”
After you complained, you raised your head and quickly kissed Kasa on the lips.
You looked at Kasa and said seriously: "I don't think you are an alien anymore, so I agree to it."
Mr. Spider, who always acted calm and composed, finally lost his composure. He raised his fingers and placed them on his lips, looking a little bewildered.
His face flushed visibly, and he kept muttering, "I'm not ready yet. I want to stay with you for a while longer."
You find it strange and ask in confusion: "What do you mean you're not ready? What do you mean you're accompanying me..."
"It's just... ah." Kasa covered his face. "After this is over, you can eat me. Although I am also looking forward to it, I still feel that I want to be with you for a while longer. Can we do it later..."
"…Just a kiss, that's all."
Why do you say such terrible words with such a happy face? Humans don’t have such terrible habits, okay!
"And humans don't eat their mates after that. Give up."
A hint of disappointment appeared on Kasa's face, but soon that disappointment turned into expectation.
"Okay, can I kiss you again?"
You were so emotional just now that your first kiss seemed a little sloppy. Now you can really make up for it. You nodded implicitly.
You climbed onto Kasa's shoulders and slowly closed your eyes. The night was as quiet as water, but the sounds of each other's heartbeats intertwined into a symphony.
"Also, can you let me comb your hair from now on?" Kasa touched your long hair and said excitedly: "I always thought your hair would look great if it was braided."
"Oh, the weather is getting cold soon. I want to knit you a scarf and some socks. I also want to make a new set of quilts and sheets for your room. But I don't have enough spider silk. Let's buy some wool..."
…
Well, your previous thought was indeed correct.
There are indeed many troubles in falling in love with a monster, but they are all sweet troubles.
Also, we can release the Tarot Master from the blacklist and apologize to her for wrongly blaming her.
