"What made you cry."
"Him." He points to Mori.
"What did he do to you?"
"He doesn't like me." He sniffs.
"That can't be, there couldn't be anyone that dislikes a sweet little thing like you." Mori just shrinks into his seat and tries not to over hear.
"I know! I mean... He's different, he doesn't treat me properly. He's always up and down with being nice and nasty. You can't predict it."
"How does that make you feel?"
"Sad. I want him to be nice to me." He sobs.
"He seemed nice enough when he held your hand."
"That's only because I made him. He never does anything like that by choice. I don't even know why I like him, but I can't help it and it hurts."
"I understand." She taps Mori on the shoulder."Excuse me, young man."
"Sorry." He flinches anticipating a slap.
"How can you not like him."
"If you knew this particular person as well as I do, you'd get it."
"You've got a nerve to say that in front of him. Look at the state you got him in. Hani milks his snivelling crying hiccups. "How can you be so cruel?"
"I'd say I'm not cruel enough."
He doesn't usually argue back when people are mean to him because of me... He's really dead set in his ways today… Just when I thought I'd made all that progress...
"You see what I mean?" Hani adds.
"You'd to stay away from him if you knew what's good for you."
"I can't."
"I'm not making you stay."
"I can't leave… Because I love him."
"Stop saying that, I can't stand to hear that come out of your lying mouth." He whispers.
"He just told me he loves me back and not to cry anymore, because he'll do as I say."
"Don't do it, don't trust him again, you know he'll only hurt you."
"He's the only love I've ever known. I won't cry again." He hesitates to suggest apprehension. "Because he makes me happy. I'm happier with him, than alone. Thank you for the tissue. Usa-chan will protect me."
"Oh you've got a stuffed toy, that's nice."
This poor boy clearly has psychological problems with regression and delusion... He's being taken advantage of.
"If he troubles you again let me know, ok? He'll be in big trouble with me."
"I'm not sure if I want to get him in trouble."
"I really don't know what you see in him."
"Stop getting people to turn on me." Mori whispers to Hani who squeals and says.
"He said he's sorry." Then pecks him on the cheek and whispers. "Now you know what I'm capable of, don't mess with me." Then he bites his ear. Mori jerks slightly but manages to suppress the shudder. "Thanks, you really helped me I'm sure he'll listen from now." She shakes her head and starts to protest but he turns away to sit back down.
"Ok, Ta-tsun~ You know what to do."
"I'm not doing it and you can't physically make me." He squints his eyes in question and Mori just mimics him in retort.
"You're pushing buttons I didn't even know I had. If you want to play games with me, understand that I will never be the bigger man. I've got no patience, no respect and no forgiveness. There is nothing I am capable of rising above, so know that when you disobey me, you're just asking for trouble."
"You've already embarrassed me enough for one day. I haven't taken it seriously up until now, but we're gonna fall out if you carry on."
"I don't care if you fall out with me I'm not trying to make you like me. Though I did pretty good job of it on Monday."
"Please don't bring that up, I don't know what I was thinking. It's why I need to stay away from you. I'll never get 'acclimatised to submitting'."
"My patience is wearing thin and I might end up doing something you regret."
"Don't you mean that you regret?"
"No. Listen now and listen carefully. I'm being really generous to you. You've got two options do as I say or I'll tell her something else."
"Like what?"
"I'll get the tears going before I turn around and I'll whisper to her so, it's more like a private conversation and I'll stutter so, I sound even more pitiful and helpless-"
"Don't say 'stutter' it's not politically correct, you've got to say stammer now."
"Do you really think I care about what's politically correct? I don't even care what's legal. You obviously don't know me properly. I'll say 'you told me I could come to you and I didn't want to tell you but…' I pause for dramatic effect and she gets even more concerned asks 'what's the matter?' and what have you, then I stab her right in the ovaries with this next line. 'C-c-c can I come home with you? You're really nice and Usa-chan really likes you…' Obviously. she'll want to know why I want to go home with her and I'll refuse to tell her. I'll give her about a minute of teasing it out of me, before I say you said when we got off the bus, you'd 'teach' me not to embarrass you like that in front of strangers."
"You wouldn't dare, wait, I know you would. You're so sly."
"I think you'll find I'm a bit more than that."
"What's to stop me from getting off at the next stop and abandoning you, when you don't have a clue where to get off."
"I'd just follow you if you get off at the wrong stop."
"You're always on the ball, aren't you?"
"You can't out smart me. Also, I'm not an idiot there's gps on my phone. Plus, if worst comes to worst I could ask around, people really like helping me for some reason. I could probably hitchhike, even in this day and age. Because, just like you, they won't be able to bear seeing me suffer."
"There's no way I'm doing it not right now, not after you've betrayed so many times consecutively, with no remorse. It's not happening."
"This is a bit of a stalemate, isn't it? I threaten you with trouble, you threaten to leave…"
"And when we're away from this crowd you won't have any people to manipulate, no more pawns in your game of chess."
"Maybe we should play some time. Though you don't stand a chance at winning."
"A why would I intentionally summon you and B Mitsukuni doesn't know how."
"But we're different people."
"I tried to teach him, but he never kept focus…"
"Woah woah woah, you're getting way off track, don't talk about Mitsukuni behind his back."
"Why? Do you care about him?"
"Not really, but if he dies, I die so, it's common sense. Ok, I've got an idea. You said you wanted to in the past, so is that the only way I can get you to do anything?"
"Obviously, if I want to do something I'll do it and you don't have to 'get' me to."
"What if I appealed to your testosterone and put on that sissy boy act?"
"You can't manipulate me that easily."
"Takashi, my thingy's so sore and it's all your fault." He puffs up his cheeks. "You bad boy! Make it better for me~"
"That's creepy coming from you."
"Don't lie. You've just got hurt feelings, that's all, you're a soft nancy boy. Oops, sorry, forget I said that."
He doesn't normally correct his outbursts so there's a chance he's actually thinking of my feelings, even if it is as part of an ulterior motive… He's actually working for my co-operation… So I have some sort of an influence over him, even in this form?
"Errm... Where was I before I accidently scolded you? Oh yeah! Takashi~ I need it~ I need you... Help me! I don't like the feeling! It's too much, I can't take it anymore." Mori winces and tries to ignore him. "Don't tell me you're not turned on by the bright and bubbly Mitsukuni impression!? You really prefer the dark and sadistic me?"
"No."
"I could call you Onii-chan."
"You're older than me and that's what my sister calls me, so no thank you."
"Alright, I'm tired of being nice. I'm not gonna beg you. You're gonna do as I say and you're gonna like it."
"Or not like it."
"But either way I get what I want."
"Not really."
"Don't make slap you because she'll ask why and I've already got a reason prepared."
"Which is?" He points down.
"You really are a cantankerous old fart, aren't you? Would you actually let me go through a lie about you touching me on the bus and me 'feeling really funny'?" He shakes his head. "I didn't think so. Though, it is time you learnt your lesson for your insolence. Now do it, you don't have any more warnings. What? Do you have to be turned on to engage in my sordid activities?" He makes a grab for Mori's private area but he stops him.
"What makes you think its right to touch me there?"
"I never said it was right, I just want to."
"Well, that's off limits."
"For now~"
"No, simply put, you can't do that, I'm not giving you access to my body. What gives you the right to touch me without asking?"
"Absolutely nothing."
"Exactly so, unless I'm unconscious and my life is at risk, I suggest you don't touch me."
"Yeah, but you love it!"
"Not right here and not right now."
"Aw, you're getting shy. I absolutely adore your naivety. It turns me on more. I won't touch you just finish what you started."
"No." He gets surprised by his bluntness, then sets about making him obey.
