AN: For those who thinks that the previous chapter is funny, well, here's another funny chapter for all of you. I hoped you liked it. I can't stop smiling while writing this chapter.

===XXX===XXX===XXX===

Luffia is kind of worried about how she should act with Zoro now that their relationship changed. Should she act the same as before? But how? It's not like she can pretend that the event that happened the other day did not happen. Zoro acted like he used to before, save for a few more intimate acts like holding her hands longer than before. Or the fact that he wraps his arms around her more protectively than ever. Luffia notices it and she's happy with it. She felt safer with him.

The feeling of being in his arms is still lingering in her mind. It was also fresh on her mind how soft his lips felt. She's just a bit disappointed at herself for not being good at kissing!

That's it! She should be practicing more! What better way to practice but to constantly kiss Zoro? With that in mind, she decided to abandon her worries and just walked straight to Zoro's office.

"Hi, Zoro!" The green-haired Kendo master was greeted with one of the brightest smiles he had ever seen Luffia gave to him. A day after the confession, it felt a little awkward for both. They don't know how to act around each other. Is there even a proper way of how they should be acting when they are together? Now that Zoro thinks about it, it's not like their relationship is delicate or fragile. They've been best friends for years and being lovers won't change that. It will never do.

He almost wanted to cover his eyes at how bright she looked. As if looking at her is different compared to before. Maybe because something changed between them which is why he is seeing her in a different light now.

"Where's my morning kiss?" When Zoro did not reply, Luffia proceeded to ask him a question while tilting her head to the side.

Zoro instantly had his right hand cover his face to hide the redness his cheeks are emitting. He does not blush, not when he is deeply embarrassed. It is rare for him to blush like this, but it seems that Luffia has that kind of effect on him.

She's too cute and adorable for his poor heart, especially when she pouts. No wonder he always follows almost whatever her requests are, save for the idiotic ones, of course.

Following her request, Zoro leaned down a little to place a kiss on her cheek.

As soon as he stood straight to look at her, he was met with another adorable look on her face. She is pouting while glaring at him. He should be a little worried that she's glaring at him, but her facial expression is just too adorable. Even when she's angry, she looks so pretty.

Yes, this is official now. Zoro is whipped.

"What's with that kiss? I want it here." Luffia closed her eyes, stood on her tiptoes leaning closer to Zoro with pointed lips on display that resembles a snout of a very adorable animal.

Zoro forced himself not to laugh out loud. Covering his mouth while still blushing, he can't help but step back a little. His lips are twitching from trying not to laugh at the sight in front of him.

When Zoro did not respond, Luffia opened her eyes and glared at him again.

"You meanie!" She shouted.

At this time, Zoro can't hold it in and laughed loudly at her while clutching his stomach.

"Hmph! I hate you!" She kicked him and started to walk out of his office when he regained his senses and stopped her from walking away.

Pulling her towards him, he immediately cupped her face and placed a gentle morning kiss she's been asking for.

"Good morning." He said, still smiling. Who could have thought that he will smile like this?

"Shishishi!" She felt better now after getting her morning kiss. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she pulled him again closer to her to get another kiss.

It looks like she's getting addicted to this - to kissing Zoro and she's not complaining. Neither is he. This is something they could get used to.

===XXX===XXX===XXX===

Why do I have to meet this guy again? AGAIN?

In Sab's opinion, there should be a limit at how many times she can meet someone in a span of a few days given that they are strangers to each other. Okay, maybe they are not total strangers, but still, they are not close enough to be labeled as colleagues or acquaintances and definitely not friends No way is she going to be friends with him.

After that meeting in Iva's shop, in which he stayed silent for the duration of their stay there and also left with no words at all. As if he's just there to be an audience and it pissed Sab off. He did not even say goodbye to her or saying a word to her at all.

Ignored. That's what she felt at that time. She must admit that he was acting a little strange at that time, but that is not enough excuse to ignore her at all. As if she is a convenient company.

Even after 24 hours since meeting that person, she still felt pissed. It's not like she can act pissed off in front of her sisters. As much as possible, she'd like to avoid talking about it as it will only make her angry. Now that she's back in her office, she can't help but think about it from time to time and annoying Law is a way of her distraction.

"Could you please get out of my office?" He asked in a not so polite tone.

"I am bored." Sab answered as if that is enough reason for her to continue annoying him.

"I fail to understand how that is any of my business."

"Hey, don't be rude to your Director!" She complained.

"Yeah, yeah. Ms. Director, can you get out of my office now?"

"I don't want to." Only in times like these that she acts like Luffia - stubborn and hardheaded, much to Law's annoyance.

"Why are you in such a bad mood, huh? You don't normally annoy me unless you are bored or trying to distract yourself." Leave it to Law for being perceptive. "Or is it that you are lovesick?"

"HUH?! Who the fuck is lovesick?!" She did not intend to raise her voice, but she just did. Her reaction made Law smirk in victory at her.

"Looks like I was right. Is it the red-haired patient?"

Sab can only glare at Law for daring to mention the man in front of her. Not when she is still pissed at what happened yesterday.

"Can you stop mentioning that barbarian in front of me?!"

"Oh, I didn't know you guys are already on a nickname basis."

Sab grabbed the nearest couch pillow and threw it at Law who ducked almost instantly as soon as he saw Sab grabbed the object. He even laughed loudly at Sab's reaction.

"Alright, alright. I'll stop teasing now, jeez. Could you stop throwing pillows at me?!" She already threw three of the couch pillows at him. "Why don't we get something to eat before you continue throwing tantrums at me?"

"Is it your treat?" Sab smiled widely at him, feeling a little better.

"Yeah, yeah. It's my treat. Come on." Sab cheered up and hugged him tightly and even kissing him on the cheek. "Ugh. What's with you and your sisters being annoying as fuck?" Law muttered to himself.

"Admit it, you love us." Sab said while they are walking out of his office.

Law may not admit it, but he really loves these annoying pests named Ann, Sab, and Luffia. He grew up with no siblings and no friends at all. He was an awkward fellow, but with these three, they accepted him as he is.

Since Sab is being annoying, Law thought of something devious. Blame Luffia for this devious idea. At first, he was against her idea to hook Sab with Kidd, but based on how she's acting right now, it may not be a bad idea at all.

This is why he decided to take her to one of Kidd's favorite restaurants. Law has a hunch that he may be there to get brunch. If he's not, that's okay too. It's not like Law is dead-set in setting them up anyway.

As soon as they arrived in the restaurant, Law chose a seat that is close to the door in which case, they will immediately be noticed by Kidd if he ever walks in the restaurant.

After ordering, Sab mentioned about the Motorsports Event that Luffia is going to sponsor - or at least one of the sponsors. Law saw a chance to check if his assumptions were correct.

"Yes, he signed Jaggy under her list of sponsored participants." Law carefully studied Sab to see how she will react.

"She mentioned that as well. Poor guy, Luffia's won't listen even if he disagrees."

"Have you met him?" Law asks.

"Jaggy? No. You know how Luffia has a lot of friends who she loves to give nicknames. We might meet during the competition anyway." She answered.

As I thought. Law was thinking that Sab is not aware that Jaggy and Kidd are the same people. What a coincidence.

After confirming that information, Law changed the topic to a work-related one. They talked about the orphanage where they will organize an event for a free medical check-up. While talking about it, the door opened and Law almost smirked in victory upon seeing who it was that just walked in.

Immediately, his reddish-brown eyes landed on Law, then on Sab. He frowned upon seeing the two, glaring at Law.

Huh... Law can't help but raise an eyebrow at his reaction. That's not a normal reaction from Kidd. True, he glares at anyone, but not like this. His glares are icy cold that could send shivers down anyone's spine. If Law didn't know him better, he would have been a little scared.

"We shouldn't have chosen this restaurant." Sab said to Law before looking back at Kidd, glaring as if his existence is the biggest mistake that happened on Earth.

"If it isn't Doc Sab." Kidd sarcastically said before approaching them and he even had the guts to sit right in front of her. Law and Sab took a table for four because a table for two is not enough to place all the food they ordered. Not with how much Sab can eat.

"I don't remember inviting you to sit with us." She said in a cold tone.

"Oh, was I interrupting something?" They glared at each other, making the atmosphere in that table very tense. Law felt a little left out. Kidd is ignoring his presence now.

"Yes, you did."

"What was I interrupting, huh? Your date?" Kidd's tone sounds odd in Law's ears. He sounds mad.

"Yes, now fuck off." Even Law is surprised to hear Sab swear like this. Her tone is unlike her at all. This is not the Sab he knows. She sounds so angry at him which also took Kidd aback.

Being told to fuck off, Kidd frowned a little, his eyes glaring at her before walking out of the restaurant without saying a word. As soon as he left, Law and Sab were left alone.

"That was rude." Law broke the silence. She did not answer but her facial expression is telling Law that she is not happy with the outcome of the conversation.

"He rudely sat with us without an invitation." She reasoned out.

"Which still doesn't explain how you overreacted." This made her silent for a while. "He's the reason you've been in a bad mood, huh?" Her silence is an answer.

Now, Sab felt guilty at what she did. Granted that the two of them are always arguing, but it never turned into something worse that it would look like they despised each other. Yes, they dislike each other. Yes, they hate each other's guts, but to tell him to fuck off like that, he may feel a little hurt.

"Did he do something bad for you to react like that? That's a bit too much, don't you think?" Law said. "You sound like an asshole."

"That's rich coming from someone who isn't." She sarcastically answered.

"I know who and when should I be an asshole. Why don't you apologize to him? I don't think he had gone that far." Law knows that Kidd walks to this restaurant from his office, so he couldn't have taken his motorbike or car out.

Sab remained sitting, not moving at all which just made Law sigh in exasperation. She's so damn stubborn.

Deep inside, he's kind of enjoying the interaction between the two. It answers a lot of his questions and doubts. Even if he's not a love expert, he can tell what's going on between the two. Sexual tension.

It was so damn obvious that Law even a middle schooler can feel it. For the first time since knowing Kidd, Law saw how he acted like a jealous guy. And for the first time since knowing Sab, this is the first time Law saw how she acted immaturely.

"Alright. Suit yourself. It won't be my problem anyway. After all, I won't go back to the hospital feeling shitty and guilty for something I did."

"Ugh, fine! I am going!" She reluctantly said before standing up and walking out of the restaurant, pouting like a child. Law was left behind chuckling. It was around this time that the waitress served the dishes they ordered. Once he saw the number of dishes, Law can't help but sweatdrop. What if Sab decided to ditch him? How is he supposed to eat everything? His appetite is just like a normal person, he's not a black hole like the sisters. Silently, he hoped that Sab will come back, but he has a feeling that she won't.

===XXX===XXX===XXX===

Walking out of the restaurant, Kidd felt like he wanted to kick someone or something to vent the anger that he felt. More than the feeling of being angry, he felt something akin to being hurt.

Or maybe that's not how he exactly felt at this moment. He feels bothered and disappointed. At what - he does not know, or more like he can't explain it. He knows he is irritated but at what, exactly? At Sab? At Law? Or at how she acted towards him back there?

It was frustrating to not identify what he feels. Yesterday, when he was feeling down, he can admit this to himself - he felt better after seeing her and being with her even though he was just silent at that time. Her presence calmed him down and he would be lying to himself if he will say that he is not hoping to see her again.

But he did not expect to see her with someone he knows in his favorite restaurant. As soon as he saw them, there is an idea that came to his mind - date.

Okay, it's not like it is his business anyway if they are on a date or not, so whatever discomfort he is feeling upon seeing them, he tried to ignore it. What he can't ignore is the fact that she acted like that towards him. They may not be friends, but certainly, they don't hate each other to the point that one would tell the other to fuck off. As if his existence is what she hated the most.

The passersby are avoiding Kidd, especially with how he looked so pissed right now. He's not in his best mood and when he saw an approaching woman a few meters away from him, he almost groaned. Not her again. After that incident where she threw the hot chocolate drink at him, Kidd would like to stay away from psychos like her. He's almost tempted to walk back in the opposite direction, but just remembering that it is the way back to the restaurant, it made him hesitate.

"Kidd! How are you? You're not hurt, are you? I am sorry about that time. It just made me upset seeing you with that woman." Her hand automatically reached for his chest while she smiles at him, trying to seduce him but it just made Kidd disgusted. He still can't believe he slept with this woman when it did not even felt good at all. What was he thinking at that time?

"Kidd!" A familiar voice took Kidd's attention and when he turned back, he Sab's state, trying to catch her breath. Did she run after him?

Sab's eyes landed on the woman and her hand on Kidd's chest. It made her frown but forced herself to stay calm and continue what she came here for.

"You're here again? When will you learn to fuck off, you bitch? You must be here to beg to come back to you. Sorry, but not happening, honey!" The crazy woman started ranting at Sab. She looked so damn proud to be by Kidd's side. This just made Sab angrier than she already is.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, but I am not here for you." She said, keeping herself as composed as she can. "I just want to say sorry for being rude. That's it. Enjoy the rest of your day with her." She may be saying sorry, but her voice sounded so forced as if staying there is suffocating her. And it did.

That stings. Sab thought to herself but pushed the thought away while walking away, tempted to run away from them. She strides as fast as she can, leaving Kidd and that woman behind.

As soon as Sab left, Kidd remained there, blinking while staring at Sab's retreating form.

"Come on, Kidd. Why don't we - "

"Fuck off! Don't make me take this to legal court and file for a restraining order against you. With what you did the last time, I doubt I'd lose the legal battle. And for one, I regretted that one night. I've never felt disgusted in myself than I did today." He said before leaving the woman behind and went after Sab.

She was a bit far away, almost back to the restaurant when Kidd called out to her.

"DOC!" He shouted. Sab looked back and as soon as she saw him, she did something Kidd did not expect. She sprinted away from him.

She fucking sprinted away. As if she saw a ghost. Surprised at her sudden action, Kidd did not react right away.

"What the actual fuck..." He muttered to himself while looking at the running Sab. "You little..." He said, pissed off and ran after her. "Come back here and apologize properly! Sab!"

"Go away!" She shouted while still running away from him. They did not notice how they ran past the restaurant.

In the restaurant, Law can feel his stomach giving up. Just looking at the dishes in front of him makes him want to throw up. He wishes for Sab to come back already to finish everything. He stopped eating when he looked outside and saw a familiar figure running like a thief. His fork with a slice of meat stuck to it was suspended mid-air while his mouth gaping at the sight. But it seems that's not the end of it because seconds later, he saw Kidd running after Sab and looked like he was shouting something.

Law sat there, inside the restaurant, mouth gaping, and a suspended fork in his hands, speechless.

"What in the world..." He muttered to himself. If Sab is running past the restaurant, it should be safe to say that she won't be coming back. Then, he looked at the dishes in front of him. He let go of his fork and covered his mouth as if to tell himself not to throw up at the amount of food he must finish.

Meanwhile, Sab and Kidd are playing cat and mouse on the streets. The passersby are surprised to see the two running as if they are watching a love comedy.

Bracing his legs, Kidd ran as fast as he could as if his life depended on it. He finally caught up to Sab and as soon as he did, he grabbed her arm, refusing to let go. Both are out of breath. Sab's still trying to get away from him but Kidd won't let go.

"Oh, for fuck's sake. Won't you stay still for a moment?!"

"NO!" Sab kicked him but he dodged it.

"My goodness, what's with you?!" Kidd still refuses to her arm go. He knows she will just run away again.

"I said no. Let go!" Sab yanked her arm which caused Kidd to outbalance himself and let her hand go. While trying to regain his foot balance back, he accidentally hit his hand on the fire hydrant that was beside him.

"Argh!" He winced in pain.

Hearing his shout, Sab was surprised to see him on the floor while wincing in pain. Immediately, worry overtook her.

"Oh no." She said while biting her lower lips. It looks like she just injured him. "Are you hurt?"

"Does it look like I am not?!"

Okay, maybe that was a bad question seeing how he winced whenever he tried to move. Most likely, his arm was sprained or maybe fractured. The hit was pretty bad.

"Let's have that checked in the hospital." Sab said, helping him in getting up.

"Just so you know, this is your fault." He said while walking beside her.

"That wouldn't have happened if you did not chase after me."

"And why did you run away in the first place?" That is something she can't answer. Thankfully, Kidd did not press for an answer. "The hospital is quite far away. And obviously, I can't drive my motorbike now."

"Let's just call a taxi." With that being said, they proceed to silently go to the hospital. Sab has a feeling that she's forgetting something... Or someone.

===XXX===XXX===XXX===

Law wanted to bang his head upon seeing the amount he has to pay. He felt a little embarrassed when he asked the waitress to place the dishes on take-out boxes. He's sure that he earned a few stares from the restaurant's staff.

He'd like to blame Sab for letting him go through this shit and she had the guts to ditch him.

Well, at least he earned something to tease her for. Going back to the hospital, he's quite surprised to see Sab and Kidd together, still arguing while sitting on the hallway outside of the laboratory.

"Now I can't use my left arm for a week. Just great." His voice sounded sarcastic but he doesn't look like he's angry.

"Can you shut up for a second? It's my fault, okay?" Sab pouted but still felt guilty. She did not mean for him to get injured at all.

"Glad to see you found your way back and forgot me in the process." Law made his entrance, arms crossed in front of his chest while raising an eyebrow at Sab and Kidd.

Kidd's face immediately turned sour upon seeing Law and this small change in his expression did not escape the male doctor's keen senses. Only Sab is not aware of that change.

"Law! Sorry about that."

"Yeah, you owe me." Law said before placing the food right in front of her. "You ditched me to injure him?"

"It's not intentional!" She protested.

"That doesn't change the fact that it's still your fault. Take responsibility for the damages you did." Kidd added. "Why is it that every time I am with you, I always end up getting injured?"

"Do you want me to add more injuries? I can do that." She threatened.

"I told you to just apologize for being rude, how did you end up injuring him?" Law muttered to them.

"I told you it wasn't intentional!"

"Yeah, whatever. I am out of here. Good luck taking care of him. Since it's your fault, you might as well help him with his chores as his hand is useless."

Sab can't believe what Law just suggested.

"True. I can't cook and can't do household chores now that my left hand is like this - which is - "

"Which is my fault. I know. You don't have to rub it in." Sab glared at him which he answered with a smirk.

"Now that the contract is sealed, start by driving me to my office, Slave."

"Wha - " Sab gaped at him. "What did you just call me?"

"Is that how you are supposed to talk to your Master? Tsk. Tsk."

"You are not my Master, you Barbarian!"

"Uh-huh. Now, less talk, more actions, Slave."

Law left the two of them who are still arguing about the Slave-Master contract that Kidd is insisting on. Seeing how they interact, Law is positive about his initial observation.

With a smirk on his lips, he reached for his phone and dialed Luffia's number.

"Traffy!" She shouted.

"Luffia... It looks like your idea is brilliant."

"Huh? Which idea are you talking about?"

"Let's hook Sab and Jaggy up."

There was silence at first before Law heard her chuckle in delight. Even without seeing her, Law can visualize the biggest grin she has right now.

"Yes! Let's do that!"
