"..." - Akira stared at Mashiro silently and didn't say anything because although he saw a few snapshots of his memory with Mashiro, he didn't remember anything.
"Hello, as you know me, I am Nifuji Akira who will take care of you while you are in Japan," Akira said, feeling uncomfortable for some reason.
"Ne Akira, what color do you want to be?" Mashiro asked, staring blankly at Akira.
"..." - Akira stared at Mashiro's clear eyes for a moment, then closed his eyes and thought about her words.
Honestly, Akira was dumbfounded at seeing Mashiro, or more specifically, the color of Mashiro's soul.
Akira didn't expect to see this color from someone of Mashiro's age because this color was only for children, it was pure white.
Seeing Mashiro's spirit board, his curiosity piqued and he wanted to know how Mashiro managed to keep this color so far white without any dirt.
"I want to be black," Akira replied, opening his eyes, determination evident in them.
"I want to paint everything with my own color and for everyone to bow down to me, unlike the current gray me," Akira continued, the determination in his eyes getting stronger and stronger.
"I want to get rid of my current self that only seeks revenge, and how am I willing to destroy everything for this goal" - Akira continued, and there was deep hatred when revenge was mentioned - "People may say that revenge is sad and there is nothing after it but emptiness."
"But I want this emptiness because after it I can become the real 'me' and I'm sure that there is a good feeling in revenge and not just emptiness" - After saying this Akira reverted to his fake self and apologised - "Sorry, I lost control of myself. Please excuse me." .
"..." - The whole time Akira spoke, Mashiro was silent and her gaze at him did not change at all.
"Let's go back to your question that the color I want to become is black and I am currently gray" - saying this Akira smiled lightly at Mashiro - "So what color do you want to become?"
"I don't know" - Mashiro replied as she tucked a lock of her hair behind her ear, not seeming to be affected by Akira's rapid change - "but I guess I'm currently white".
"Nya~" - At this time Zeta gently hit Akira's cheek with her paw.
"Okay, I see." - Akira spoke and brushed Zeta's paw from his cheek - "Let's go. I'll take you home, but before that we'll go shopping for dinner."
Saying this, Akira leaned over, picked up Mashiro's bag, and walked in front of her.
"Mm" - Mashiro nodded and followed behind Akira without saying anything.

"Come in," Akira said to Mashiro upon reaching his apartment.
After meeting Mashiro, Akira goes shopping with her for dinner.
Today, Akira decided to cook curry, so he bought potatoes, onions, carrots, etc., and he certainly didn't forget to buy Zeta cat food.
"Be at ease" - Saying this, Akira put Mashiro's bag aside and walked into the kitchen.
"If you want to change your clothes, the bathroom is there," Akira added, pointing towards the bathroom.
Mashiro nodded and opened the bag and started taking out the clothes and throwing them everywhere.
"Hey, hey, what are you doing throwing clothes at random" - Akira rushed to Mashiro and was surprised that she emptied half of the bag in a few seconds.
"I'm looking for clothes to wear," Mashiro replied in her usual flat tone, but for some reason Akira could tell she was confused.
"Wait a minute" - Saying this Akira quickly entered his room and came out with a bath towel - "Here, take this and take a quick shower, and I'll get you some clothes."
"Hm" - Mashiro nodded again and picked up the bath towel from Akira and headed to the bathroom.
"Also, if you don't know how to dress, tell me and I'll help you," Akira added, choosing comfortable clothes for Mashiro.
"nya~" - at this time Zeta jumped on Akira's head and complained that she hadn't had her food yet.
"Okay, I see, so go away, Zeta." - Akira spoke in a slightly loud voice as he was annoyed by Zeta's claw pressing against his cheek constantly.
Akira quickly chose Mashiro's clothes and put them in the bathroom for Mashiro, then fed Zeta and started making curry.
"I have a feeling that my life is going to get annoying from now on," Akira muttered, not knowing that he had guessed right.
