>"Doesn't it suck?" It's a month or two, since you've met her, this all-powerful entity who forced herself into your life.
>"What sucks?" You're currently trying to learn how to make gimbap while she waits at the dining table, she's developed quiet the fascination with Korean cuisine.
>"Being mortal." She says with a particular disdainful emphasis on the mortal part.
>"Whatever do you mean?" You bring the finished gimbap to the table, it's not the best but it's serviceable. She takes one and wolfs in down in one gulp.
>"I mean, doesn't it suuuuuuck? Being so weak? Having such a short lifespan? It's kinda pitiable?" She grins at you, you've gotten used to her habits now.
>"I suppose, but I can't really complain. Not all of us can be like you." You take a bite out of your work, not bad. You might need to cut down on the mayonnaise
>"Of course, there's only one of me! I'm one of a kind!" She spreads out her arms, a smug look, her narcissism can be grating for some, but to you it's something you've always found cute.
>"A lonely existence" You absent-mindedly say, fetching some soju from the fridge.
>When you come back, your spine tingles, she has that disdainful look again.
>"Lonely? You presume too much? Dog." The soju bottle in your hand suddenly shatters, it's contents spilled down on the floor. Yeah you pissed her off again.
>"I apologize" you say in a practiced tone, getting the mop to clean up the mess. You've learned quickly that it was the quickest way to temper your mistress's wroth.
>While cleaning up, you notice a change in her mood.
>"If you think I'm so 'lonely', maybe I should leave." She pouts, that remark of yours really got to her.
>"Oh? I thought I was just a pet." You wanted to say it in a joking manner, but instead opted to be serious. There were very few moments where Kronii would drop her guard.
>"Yes, that is what you are, a pet to amuse me for a time." She says haughtily, looking down on you as you carefully try to pick up errant glass.
>"And when I die, I guess you're just gonna find another pet, huh." You say, a little sadness in your tone.
>You hear something, a movement.
>You look back at Kronii.
>Her eyes now focused on the window of the apartment.
>"Yes...I forgot...you're mortal. One day you'll die." She says to herself, lost in her thoughts.
>"Why so down? You can always get another." You stand next to her, slightly mesmerized by her beauty.
>"Hmmm, I've grown fond of you. Finding another pet would take some effort." She stares at you, with her smug grin. Expecting you to be flustered.
>"I like you too Kronii." You say with a smile, it was how you honestly felt.
>She blushed slightly
>"Hmph, you've grown cocky huh? Maybe I should remind you how to properly behave." She says in a threatening manner.
>"I apologize mistress." You make a slight humble bow, lowering your head to the floor.
>You could've sworn you saw the first genuine smile on her face as you did so.
