Hey! Here's another chapter!
I made a little something for this chapter and I posted a link near the scene. Hope you guys check it out :)
Thank you for reading my fic!
Have a good day everyone! :D
By the time Law arrived in the hospital, the sun was blaring down on him. The trip had been haste. He had to avoid streets he knew was congested to lessen his travel time. Thankfully, he wasn't stopped by any police officers along the way with his speed nor gotten any trouble with the bike – he didn't have any idea how long it remained unused but it seemed to be in fine condition.
He parked the motorcycle and grabbed his phone from his pocket. He checked the time and grinned when it was exactly twelve noon. Thirty minutes of travel wasn't so bad he thought.
He sent a quick text to his dad who sacrificed himself to the family. Law will surely remember his bravery. The family was his dad's problems now. He could find a reason why Law left the mansion. He paused and thought about it then shrugged. His dad can easily mention Luffy's name and no one will bat an eye.
He shook his head fondly. Up until today, he had no idea how Luffy wormed her way into his family to the point where they actually root for her instead of him. Though he couldn't really blame them. It was just Luffy being Luffy. It was either you end up liking her or disliking her. Nothing in between. But as far as Law knew, most of them were captivated. She was irresistible, it was as simple as that.
After sending his dad a text, he scrolled his contacts and dialed her number. Who was he kidding, Luffy's number was in his phone's speed dial along with his dad – he tapped a number and waited for her to pick up. He tapped his foot along with the ringing and raised a brow when it went to the automatic service provider's voice.
Did she leave? He checked his messages to make sure he didn't miss any text. His eyebrows furrowed, there was none.
Law dialed again yet still nothing.
Did her phone's battery ran out? He bit his lips and stared at his phone. His eyes zoned at the time displayed at the corner of the screen and rolled his eyes. Of course. Of course she'd be there. Even if the world might end without notice, Luffy won't miss any meal.
With that knowledge, he made his way to the hospital's cafeteria. And as expected, he saw her inhaling what seemed to be – Law squinted – her fifth bowl of udon. He was actually surprised that she wasn't shoving any kind of meat in her mouth.
Most of the seats were already occupied with the hospital staff and families of patients who opted to eat inside the hospital than going out to the restaurants around the area. She sat in one of the two seat tables placed closed to the food counter.
He maneuvered through tables and crowd and casually sat on the vacant seat opposite of hers. She was focused in slurping the noodles and didn't even notice that someone was already sitting in front of her.
Her cheeks were flushed from the heat of the noodle as she huddle closed to it, titling the bowl a bit as she dragged one mouthful with her chopsticks and sucked the noodles until there wasn't any trace left in her bowl. Law fought a grin, he wanted to pinch her damn cheeks but he had to stop himself or he'd end up losing a finger or two.
Still, it'll be worth it though. Just not today, he thought. He still need them for his operations.
Law opted to speak and tried changing his voice. "Hey there." He could see the lines on her forehead crinkling. Even without her looking at him nor giving him her attention, Law could clearly hear the "Who the hell are you and why are you interrupting my meal."
She continued to eat and didn't give a damn. He grinned. Typical Luffy.
He tried again. "Miss, do you have a name?"
Still nothing. All right.
"The staff mentioned that you're not allowed to order another bowl."
Law couldn't help but laugh at her face when she looked up. She was genuinely, utterly offended.
Law felt a little bad. Just a little.
She looked pissed at first then slowly morphed into surprise as she registered who she was looking at then eventually pouted.
He smiled. "Hey."
She scrunched her nose and gave him a dirty look. Moving the bowl away from him, she said, "You're not getting anything."
Law chuckled and raised his hands placatingly. "Calm down. I'm not stealing your food. But hey, I'm here. Did you wait long?"
She was still giving him that dirty look but quickly glanced to the side, obviously biting her inner cheek and holding off a smile. Law settled his elbows on the table and leaned his chin on his hands and stared at her, raising a questioning brow.
Her face bloomed to an even darker shade of pink, her resolve crumbling and finally, finally smiled at him, beaming from ear to ear. "You're here," she said.
God, she was goddamn pretty. He could just stare at her all day. He cleared his throat. "Yeah, I am. Did you think I wasn't coming?"
He didn't expect her answer.
"Shishishi, of course not. I trust you."
It was just a simple statement. It sounded so simple, so easily spoken but it took his breath away.
He looked at her. Really looked at her. She continued eating, casually shrugging off her red vest and only leaving a loose teal sleeveless shirt on as if she didn't blew her mind and shattered his reality.
He had never hoped to hear those words from her. After everything he did, he accepted the fact that there will always be something, a rift, a clot between the two of them that would never be removed no matter how many times he apologizes.
Somehow it meant more to him that the time they bare their hearts to each other. It meant more than just giving him a chance. She was opening up everything, removing the boundaries they danced through the previous months as they relearned each other, map out the things they missed with each other as they find each other's place in their lives. She was showing him how vulnerable she was around him.
Law choked up.
If he realized by the moment he asked for another chance that he wasn't worthy, this time it was worse. Because he really wasn't. He wasn't worth any ounce of her trust. But after those years, after those months of regretting and being given a chance to redeem himself, he was a different man.
This time, he'll treasure it for the rest of his life.
He'll treasure her for the rest of his life.
"I- Luffy… I-", he didn't know what to say. He felt like saying something was not enough to let her know how much this meant to him.
Overwhelming joy bubbled deep within him and he couldn't stop himself from letting out a heavy laughter with all the overflowing emotions he was feeling. He was scared to fuck up yet he was happy to have this – have her in his life. He was boiling with anxiety but he was also calm. He was at awe with the person in front of him.
God, he loves this woman. He loves her so damn much.
She tilted her head, concern evident in her eyes. Dropping her chopsticks, she asked. "You okay?" She eyed her food then his face. "Want some?"
He ran his hands on his face and composed himself. Still chuckling though, she was so ridiculous, she didn't know what the hell she was doing to him.
He let out a deep breath. Relieved. He felt bold and said, "Only if you feed me."
She scrunched her nose and he almost felt that pain in his chest for being rejected – god, he was pathetic, but immediately vanished when she gave him another set of chopsticks.
"It's better if we eat together." She said and moved the half-full bowl in the middle of the table. "Dig in." She added, smiling so brightly.
If he ate his own share of at least three more bowls of udon, he didn't really question any of it.
-x-
Satisfied with their meal, side by side, hand intertwined – she had grabbed his hand while walking and Law didn't let go and held hers tighter, lacing their fingers together, the little squeeze she gave him was more than enough to encourage him to keep holding her hand – Law led Luffy outside the hospital to where he parked the motorcycle.
The smile she had when she saw the ride was absolutely blinding. "You have to let me drive, Law!"
Let it be known to this day that Law made his point, explained everything, demanded and pleaded why her idea wasn't safe before he decided he didn't have any chance to begin with. She was dead set on driving that motorcycle and nothing, really nothing could change her mind.
They ended up taking a more remote way towards Wind Mill. One that followed the outskirts of the city and was less crowded. For the benefit of the pedestrians and other drivers really, his driver was a moving hazard. She didn't even have any driver's license. And he knew exactly why. He experienced it all firsthand. Law just really had to fall in love with one crazy woman, didn't he?
The view was stunning. Trees with different shades of green that decorated the path swayed with the ocean breeze. The ocean was visible from the road and it was sparkling even with slightly gray clouds lurking above. It was inviting, it could lure anyone into taking a dip. He could write poems about it. But it didn't mean that he would want to dive down that cliff with Luffy and their ride, though.
Letting Luffy drive was a rollercoaster of near death experiences. It was like Russian-roulette. It was endearing how she laughed heartily, thoroughly enjoying every stumble they encounter.
As endearing as it was, Law didn't want to die yet.
They eventually stopped on the side of the road after almost hitting a crossing dog.
"Okay, that's it. I'm driving." He demanded.
She had the audacity to pout after that. Is this woman really twenty-five years old? Sometimes he swore he was dealing with a ten year old brat. She kept sitting on the seat, arms crossed over her chest and actually had the guts to hold the hand grip and almost throttled the bike.
He stood firm in front of her and gave her a look. "Don't even think about it, Lu." He stared until she finally realized he wasn't moving from that spot.
"Good. Set the kickstand. Yes. That's it. Very good. Now slowly get off the bike – No, Luffy. If you press the gas I'll end up picking you on that part of the sidewalk or worse, we're going back to the hospital. Not on the bike but with an ambulance. Please."
He gave a sigh of relief when she finally, finally, got off the bike albeit begrudgingly. He smiled at the sulking woman and patted her head, hand lingering on her cheek a bit. "I'll teach you another time, okay? When we have protective clothes and a helmet 'cause this isn't safe at all."
She looked at him with suspicion. "Ace and Sabo says that all the time but they never do."
"I'm not one of your brothers though."
She visibly cringed, gagging a little and giving Law that questioning look. "Thank gods you're not. That would be so weird."
"Weird, why?"
"Because" she sounded like she was explaining it to a toddler and seriously, it should be Law doing that instead, "I wouldn't wanna da–", she stopped midway, eyes wide then grumbled to herself. "Nothing."
Okay. That piqued Law's his curiosity. "Why?"
She rubbed her arm with her hands. "Stop asking. You're giving me goosebumps."
"Come on, tell me."
"If you don't stop asking, I'll drive again."
For the safety of everyone, he opted to dismiss that for now. He couldn't really argue with that.
She ended up standing while riding the motorcycle hands raised in the air, wind blowing through her hair, giggling madly and screaming her lungs off as Law drove as safely as he could with all the demands of going faster.
(A.N. I tried inserting my own art here for the fic but ff won't allow me :( so here's a link, hope you guys check it out imgur*com/JidLg71 . The site censors it so please change the * to ).
The rain had started to pour when they were half-way through between Sabaody and Wind Mill. They would've arrived sooner if someone wasn't being a brat. Not that he was complaining, he was happy that he got to spend time with her and seeing her enjoy and laugh around him was more than enough to cover up the times where they almost died.
He quickly glance at the sky and decided they had to stop somewhere. The clouds were dark and he doubted it will clear up soon. He checked the signs on the road to see if they were any establishments up ahead.
A kilometer away, now both totally soaked, they stopped at what seemed like an inn. Law parked the bike and dragged Luffy who had to pause and play under the rain towards the entrance of the establishment.
A few people waited in the lounge with their hiking bags haphazardly placed on the floor.
They were greeted by a staff the moment they entered and was generously given towels to dry themselves up. They headed to the reception where they were greeted by another staff.
He looked at Luffy who was already shivering and pulled her closer to his side. Law addressed the guy in the counter, "Do you have any souvenir clothing for sale or anything that we could change into or anything to dry our clothes?"
"I'm sorry sir but we don't sell souvenirs nor do we have anything for you to change. We do have a clothes dryer but only the guests who booked a room could avail it."
Law clicked his tongue. Typical. He had no other choice though. "Then two single rooms please."
"Hold on, sir. Let me check the available rooms." The staff concentrated on the monitor in front of him, typing away on his keyboard.
"Lu, are you okay?" He asked, Luffy was oddly quiet.
"Y-yeah. Just a bit cold."
"That's why I told you not to run off and play in the rain."
"But it was fun." She grinned at him and shuddered.
He frowned and pulled her even closer, sharing his towel with her. "T-thanks," she said.
"Excuse me, sir. Unfortunately, we only have two standard double rooms left. Would you like to take both?"
"Yeah, sure." He pulled out his wallet – thank whoever invented waterproof things – and gave the man his card only for Luffy to stop him.
"Law, we can share. I don't mind."
Law paused. "Are you sure?"
"Yeah. We could use the payment for the other room for food." She grinned.
He shook his head, this woman, really. "I could pay for both and still get you food, you know."
"I know." She looked up at him and there was determination in her eyes, one where he knew he wouldn't probably survive what she was about to say.
"But I wanna stay in one room with you."
Yep. He knew it.
He couldn't really stop the blush that spread on his cheeks even with the chill coming from their soaked clothes. God, why was he like this? He was fucking twenty-six years old. Sharing a room with her shouldn't make him blush like he was fifteen again.
She was so damn unfair. She had to be doing this on purpose.
"A-alright." He cleared his throat and addressed the receptionist who looked like he was eavesdropping. "We'll take one room."
The man finished typing the details and gave them the key. A staff led them to their room but not long after they started walking, Luffy doubled-back to the receptionist.
"Can I have your menu?" She asked grinning.
-x-
At this point Law wasn't even listening to the staff explain whatever he was explaining to them. He didn't even register that they arrived in the room and was now left alone.
Law should be fine. They had done this countless times when they were back in high school. They stayed in a room just the two of them because of detention, played with his play station in his room, literally slept together when they had their school trip and lots of other things that if her brother would know, he'd end up buried alive.
But he couldn't really compare those times to what was happening now.
After what happened, they spent time together but not in the confines of a room and totally alone. And Law… He didn't want to fuck up and ruin everything.
He eyed Luffy who seemed so relaxed and was casually scanning the menu humming to herself. She was standing beside the bed, clothes still dripping with water, shivering but opted to order first before anything else.
That shook him out of his predicament.
"Lu, why don't you go change and use the robe they offered before you catch a cold? I'll order for you."
She frowned. "What about you? You're soaking too."
"I'll change here." He grabbed the extra white robe that was placed on the bed for emphasis because he knew she could be stubborn to a fault sometimes. "Then I'll use the bathroom after you."
She hummed. "Okay." She grabbed the other robe and headed to the bathroom leaving the menu behind. She closed the door but quickly opened it back. "They have onigiri. You should get some for yourself too." Then quickly closed the door again.
Law breathe in relief. Why the fuck was he acting like a kid in puberty? He slapped himself, this was not the time to freak out over the woman you love taking a bath at the other side of that door. "God, Law. Get a grip."
The bathroom door creaked opened and a hand casually threw wet clothes into the floor and chugged her phone into the bed then he heard her yell over the trickling water. "The guy said we should give them our clothes so they can dry it as soon as possible!"
"Right! I'll call room service while ordering food." He quickly took of his clothes and wrapped himself tightly with the robe. Looking around he saw remote control for the air conditioner and blasted it on. He blamed the temperature of the room for sweating.
He distracted himself, turning on the TV that was hanging on the grey wall, calling room service who he dump all the clothes at and ordering tons of food. He should probably add vodka too. Yeah, he nodded to himself. That sounded nice. He needed that.
Moments later, Luffy came out of the bathroom, hair covered with towel and with only a robe on. "I'm done. You're turn."
Or not, he called the room service again and cancelled that drink. He promised he won't drink again. And him being even a little tipsy while inside the room with her? That didn't sound like a good idea.
He briskly walked towards the bathroom grumbling to himself, "I swore I didn't plan any of this."
-x-
When Sabo, Ace, Marco and Garp arrived safe and sound in his and Koala's place, – tired and exhausted in Sabo's case because his brother just couldn't stop bickering with their gramps and the old idiot that their gramps was couldn't stop pissing Ace off, how Marco managed to stay calm and quiet the entire drive was driving Sabo crazy too – Koala greeted them and Sabo wanted to cry seeing her face and how much understanding her eyes hold as she opened her arms and gave him a hug.
Without much things to settle, Ace and Marco left, bidding goodbye to Koala – Marco dragging Ace out before he could start another argument with Garp. Now that he was looking closer, Marco looked like he aged ten years within an hour of driving with Ace and Garp in one car. Guess he wasn't the only getting tired of all their bullshit.
Plans were made to gather for dinner – Luffy should be home by then – courtesy of Koala who was a saint for owning up to cooking food that was enough to feed a battalion. There was nothing his future-wife couldn't do. Sabo was one lucky man.
After hovering over her in the kitchen, wanting to help because with Ace, Luffy, Garp and Sabo in one table, Koala needed all the help she could get but Sabo ended up getting sent to the living room to rest.
Garp seemed to be enjoying sitting on their couch with some sort of variety show running on the TV, snacking on some almonds. Where the hell did he get those?
He sat on the other end of the couch, leaning against the backrest and extending his legs. The rumble of the television started soothing his mind only to be interrupted by Gramp's guffaw. He sighed and eyed the television.
Three pairs of couples were currently competing with each other in a game. Some of them were covered with flour and others were soaked in yellow goo.
It was an odd show for Garp to watch. Sabo raised a brow, looking at the show then at Garp. He wasn't planning on dating right? Not that he minded, he could date whoever he wants even at his age but he couldn't really imagine his Gramps being all sweet and – he visibly shuddered. He just can't.
He opted to stop thinking about it and continued watching the show. His mind just supply abnormal thoughts when he's dead tired.
"Oh Sabo. Did you meet Luffy's parents?"
Sabo sighed. If his brain could stop spouting nonsense for a second and let him rest, that would be nice.
It was really ridiculous.
It took Sabo a loud crashing of plates to the floor to snap out of his Zen. Alarmed, he quickly hopped out of the couch and saw Koala wide-eyed, white ceramic fragments scattered on the floor, looking at his gramps who continued eating his almonds.
He bolted and checked if she was hurt. Thankfully, she was wearing wool pajamas and house slippers that covered her legs and feet. He grabbed a broom and dustpan to quickly sweep up the mess on the floor. He finished cleaning everything and removed what's left of the plate she was holding and placed them on the table.
His fiancée remained glued to her spot still in shock.
He held her arms, soothing her and asked. "Koala, honey. Are you okay? Are you dizzy? We should order take outs for tonight, don't force yourself and rest."
Koala looked at him flabbergasted then to the man sitting in their couch. "I- Did you –," she became wary, this time holding Sabo's arms firmly.
"Koala, what's wrong?"
"Garp… What did you just say?" She asked, oddly calm in contrast to the shock and surprised look she had earlier.
The older man turned towards them, adjusting the way he sat on the couch. "Ah. I was asking Sabo if he met Luffy's parents."
Sabo stared at Garp.
Garp tilted his head while looking at Sabo.
Koala firmly gripped both of his arms this time.
"Luffy's parents? What do you mean?" He was surprised he sounded so calm. Gramps better not be joking.
"Oh, I didn't tell you? My bad, my bad. They came to visit me at the hospital. I thought they introduced –"
"Hold up. Luffy's parents? As in, Luffy my little sister's biological parents?"
Garp looked at him, perplexed. Like he was the dumbest person that ever existed on earth. "Who else?"
"Sabo, let's get you seated." He heard Koala say and led him to the couch. She registered her running to the kitchen and coming back with a glass of water. "Here, why don't you drink? Slowly okay?"
Sabo drank slowly and steadily until his brain started functioning again.
Garp said Luffy had parents. Have parents. Their little sister, Monkey D. Luffy, known to be an orphan with only Garp as a family until she was introduced to him and Ace have alive, existing parents.
She wasn't an orphan.
She had parents who could've supported her.
She could've grown up in a normal family with parents who could nurture her.
But they left her to Garp who in return let Ace and Sabo – still kids themselves – take care of her and in extension with Makino and Dadan.
He wasn't sad that both he and Ace ended up taking care of her, Luffy ended up growing with them and became their sister. He wasn't complaining about that at all because he loved his siblings so much with all their quirks, blood related or not. He knew they were family.
Luffy could've had something better. Not that Sabo and Ace didn't do their damned best to give her a good life but he could have a normal family, with both parents present, feeling secure and loved.
It hurt to imagine that she wasn't around them growing up but she could've had better.
How could someone abandon a child?
Why now? Why appear now? Why?
After the eerie silence that settled between them. Koala looked at him concerned, hands holding his own.
"Why? Why now? Why the fuck now? After all those years, twenty-five fucking years. You told her she didn't have parents. She asked you" he looked at the man beside him "and you told her she didn't have any. You told us that she didn't have any and we believed you."
Garp sighed as if talking about it was taking a toll on his life. Heck it fucking should. Sabo for the life of him couldn't understand why. Just fucking why?
"I don't think I have the right to explain their circumstances."
Sabo stared at him, unbelieving. "What?" This was too much.
Gramps did look apologetic but it only added more fuel to his frustration, confusion and anger. "I know this is too much to handle –"
Sabo chuckled dryly. "Well that's a fucking understatement Gramps!" He stood up, Sabo could feel Koala tensing beside him and he did his best to curb down his emotions, relaxing a bit in her presence.
"Did they… did you even think what she would feel for them to just – just suddenly appear out of nowhere knowing all of her life that she didn't have any to begin with?!" He could've spoken a little bit calmly but he was oh so far from being calm. Very, very from it.
"Ace knew his parents died a long, long time ago. I knew my parents were abusive assholes and ended up in jail for taking money that weren't theirs and to be honest, good riddance, I would've disowned them on my own anyways. Meanwhile, your son? Daughter? I don't really give a fuck at this point. They were there. They knew she was there. But didn't even bother showing themselves to her? They're more of an asshole than my birth parents. Then what? Coming back after years? Would you really think me and Ace would casually say, "Oh, hi you're Luffy's parents you can have her back –"
Garp sighed. "No one's saying they would take her away from you and Ace, Sabo."
He glared at the older man. Respect be damned. "I'm not done yet, old man." He dragged a hand over his hair, lightly pulling them and continued. "And Luffy. She wouldn't think anything ill against them because she's so… kind, so selfless, so forgiving. Even for people who don't deserve them. Tell me one good reason why Ace and I should allow them to see her."
"They're her parents, Sabo."
"Yes, they are but it didn't mean they have the right to even get close to her for a second. They left her for whatever the fuck their reason was and with that they wouldn't go near her for any reason either."
"They had to." Garp said, sounding dejected.
"They had to? Unbelievable. They had to? And you're letting them near her? Are you even listening to yourself Gramps?"
The older man looked at him straight in the eyes with all the seriousness Sabo had ever seen for a man as crazy as their grandfather. "I was the one who told them to leave Luffy behind. They… It's better if we all talk about it together. With them and Luffy around."
"Honey. Why don't we rest for a bit?"
It was Sabo's turn to look at his fiancée, perplexed.
"We're not done talking, Koala. I need- "
"Sabo. I am not asking." She stood firm between him and Gramps. "It'll be assuming of me and insincere if I say I understand what you feel but Luffy's also very important to me. I'm mad at Garp. At her biological parents. But this… this conversation… this argument isn't going anywhere. You're both clouded with emotions, both very exhausted. Rest for now, both of you." She looked sternly between him and his grandpa. "Give it a day or two. And go back and talk like mature people."
It took a moment for him to answer. Logically speaking, Koala was right. It was so unlike him to get so mad he couldn't even think straight and shout and curse in an argument. "Fine." He grumbled begrudgingly.
"Come on." Koala led him to their room.
He paused near the door and faced his grandpa. "It's better if you don't say anything to Ace. I don't know what he'll do if he knew."
Sighing, Garp nodded and sat back on the couch. At the corner of his eyes, he could see the man call someone on his phone.
For all things holy, he hoped it wasn't Ace.
He sighed and doubled back when he heard Luffy's name. He better not call Luffy and tell her about those people. Those outsiders.
He marched back to the living room and stared down at Garp who looked equally surprised yet had the air that he knew it was bound to happen. "Give me the phone." He muttered darkly.
"No." The man was about to end the call but Sabo successfully grabbed it and looked at the screen.
It was a video call.
He didn't know the old man could use a smart phone.
Focus, Sabo.
It was a video call.
A video call of Trafalgar Law, a person he never thought nor suspected one bit that Garp would call. Did that asshole knew about Luffy's parents too? This was getting out of hand.
They image on the screen looked at him surprised. While he stared back in suspicion. Until his eyes landed on what the younger man was wearing and the name above the video call.
-MY ADORABLE GRAND DAUGTHER-
Before he could even speak. An equally newly out of the shower Luffy with only a white robe on, eating what seemed to be an onigiri came into view and asked Law who he was calling.
"Ugh."
Luffy crawled on the bed and sat beside Law. Too close. Too damn close for Sabo's comfort.
The trio stared at each other. Then with a mess of limbs, Luffy tried to grab the phone from Law.
"End the call!" Sabo heard Luffy panicking.
"No. They're going to misunderstand, Luffy. Better explain it now."
"Explain what?!" Sabo exclaimed.
"They're going to misunderstand no matter how much you explain!" It was Luffy again.
What was that supposed to mean?
We're they chasing each other inside the room? Sabo squinted, with all the movement and shaking of Law's hand he could see a table, a bed, a tv hanging on the wall, tons of food in a cart and… Oh for fuck sakes, they were in an inn.
"Just give me my damn phone, Torao!"
Sabo could see Law extending his arm away from Luffy who paused and Luffy who also stopped midway in her attempt to grab it back. They stared at each other for a long time.
"That… You called me Torao. Lu…"
Sabo didn't like the tone of the man's voice. Not at all. That utter adoration, reverence and dare he say, love.
Even with the shitty reception, Sabo could see the blush on Luffy's face. She then held her head high, extended her arms and open her palm. "I -I did. Now give me the phone, Torao."
Law didn't seem to move so Luffy opted to walk closer. Law placed his grubby, filthy hands on her sister's face and leaned on her forehead.
Sabo gasped. "Excuse me?!"
Luffy then quickly grabbed the phone and he might've heard Law say "don't" somewhere in there before the call ended. What was left was his own flabbergasted face reflecting on the lit screen and the time stamp for the call.
Garp cleared his throat and quoted what he said. "It's better if you don't say anything to Ace. I don't know what he'll do if he knew."
Sabo was going to end up with gray hair or even bald before his wedding day.
I feel bad for Sabo but I can't help but laugh at him either. lol
Guy's gonna get aneurysm before the fic ends. lol
Give him support guys. He needs it XD
Again, thank you for reading! See you next chapter!
