[askjhdajsk leek in his face! Do not want!]

Get that thing away from me!

[And throwing it away now.]

HUAH! [Still freaking out over here. Kitchen implements are not supposed to turn in to produce. 8|] S-sorry, Kyou-kun! I'm so sorry!

[fhjdgfjhsdgdjjd]

[He looks to the vegetable that was cast aside for a second before looking back at Tohru. Did she say... that was a knife.]

Wait a second. You said that wasn't really a leek?

No. [Shaking her head.] It was a knife. It changed into a leek when I touched it.

[Nope, Kyou's never experienced anything like that before.]

Is that the only thing you've changed so far?

Yes. I'm afraid to touch anything else.

[Kyou simply clicks his tongue.]

It's probably a one time thing. Don't worry about it too much.

O-okay...

[She takes Kyou's word for it. The knife turning into a leek was a fluke, right? Tohru walks back to the stove, reaching out for the knob in order to turn on the stove.]

[Only for the knob to turn into an apple.]

E-EHHHH?! H-How??

[With her back turned to him, Kyou was unable to see what it was that cause Tohru to spazz out again.]

What happened now?

T-T-The knob! [She's backing away from the stove, pointing at said knob so that Kyou can see.] I-It's an apple now!!

[Kyou looks at the knob apple for a second. Then to Tohru. Then the apple once more.]

You seriously just did that?

[She nods, quickly crossing her arms and balling her hands into fists. Now she's really afraid of touching anything else.]

Why... is this happening?

[He can't help but rub the palm of his hand against his forehead in exasperation.]

It's probably something that has to do with the food attacking people too.

...

[Blink blink]

E-EHH?! FOOD ATTACKING??

Just be glad it's only happening outside.

[He runs a hand across his hair, pausing for a moment to scratch the back of his head out of habit. Oh how wrong you are, Kyou.]

Better get used to weird things happening here, too.

Will this... happen often, Kyou-kun?

Not exactly the same thing as this, but yeah. It's pretty often.

...Are you really just going to sit there until this whole thing blows over?

[!!]

U-um... I guess I can't.

[She slumps in her seat.]

I still need... to cook lunch.

[Sigh, you never change Tohru.]

If that's all you're worried about, then let me do the cooking today.

[Here, have a light pat on the head.]

[She couldn't help the heat that suddenly flooded her cheeks at his touch. Tohru uncrossed her arms, settling her hands on her lap. She couldn't let him do that. She's the one imposing on him! This was her way on paying him back for his kindness.]

But Kyou-kun...

[Her tone had no conviction whatsoever. Like she wasn't even going to try to protest seriously.]

[He raises an eyebrow at that for a moment but he doesn't disagree to her weak plea outright. Instead he takes a different route.]

Do you really want to risk turning this whole place into a vegetable farm?

N-no! [Shaking her head.] Absolutely not!
