Date?! With Who?
'And Chiaki...still not feeling better, are you?'
Of course, Maron has to stand outside again. She notices that Miyako wasn't at school.
'Miyako's probably thinking of a plan to catch Jeanne...'
End of School:
Maron is walking home from school when her rosary starts beeping.
'My rosary!' Maron looks around and sees no one except a chef hanging outside of a restaurant.
'Probably that chef, ne? I need to talk to Fin...demo...isn't that what I said about Chiaki a few days ago?' Maron is walking through the apartment door alone.
"I'm alone.....again..." Maron drops onto her bed and waits for Fin to appear.
"Maron! Trouble! We're in big trouble!" Fin appears in front of Maron with her hands waving.
"Eh? Fin? What?" Maron starts getting up, while Fin tells her what the bed news is.
"The chef! The cook! Whatever you call that person who cooks at the nearby restaurant! He's possessed!"
"The one that always stands outside the restaurant?!"
"Yeah! That's the one! But that's not the only problem!"
"Eh? There's more?!" Maron takes out her rosary, waiting for Fin to tell her the other problems.
"The demon can possess more than one person at a time! All the other people working in the restaurant are also possessed! Therefore, you need two people to seal the demon! Two seals all!" Fin starts flying around the room.
"But who?"
"The only other kaitou we know is-" Fin is stopped short.
"Sindbad!" Maron is nodding her head in agreement.
"Demo...he hasn't showed up for the past few checkmates, ne?"
"Ah! Chiaki's sick! And Sindbad hasn't been showing up! Are they related by any chance?!"
"I don't know...but for your sake, wait until Chiaki gets better, got it Maron?"
"But, won't that put the possessed people at risk?"
"Yeah...but we don't have a choice! Just wait!"
"Okay...Fin..."
"What?"
"I'm going to check my mail box for any letters from my parents-" Maron starts for the door.
"Or Chiaki..." Maron says this quietly so Fin won't hear.
Maron walks out the door and runs to the elevator for downstairs.
'Chiaki...I hope you wrote a note to me...please?'
She slowly opens the door to her mail box and finds a letter. It's from Chiaki again.
Hey Baby! I'm feeling better today! I'll see you at school tomorrow for sure! Come and talk to me in the balcony if you want! I'll be waiting...
Chiaki
'Chiaki! Yeah! I'm going to talk to you right now!'
Maron runs upstairs and into the balcony.
"Chiaki! You there?"
"Maron? You were in a hurry! Was it because of me?" Chiaki grinned.
"Eh?!" Maron is blushing and her face keeps getting redder.
'Should I tell him I like him? Doshio?'
"What's the matter with you, Baby?"
"Chiaki! This isn't like you! I'm going back inside!" Maron storms back inside to think about what just happened.
"Ha...it's cause I'm not!" The man takes off a mask and reveals himself. He is a man with a very cute face, like Chiaki.
"Chiaki's sick because of me!" The man starts laughing so loudly that you can hear him from across the country.
'Chiaki...why are you acting so different? You have become so mean...not like you haven't been mean to me...but...'
Maron gets ready for bed, thinking about Chiaki and her next checkmate with Sindbad.
'Sure, you've been mean to me a few times, demo...this isn't like you at all!'
She, then, starts to go to sleep, with one last thought.
'Chiaki...are you Sindbad?'
Next Day:
"Maron! Wake up! Maron!" Fin is screaming in the morning as usual for Maron to wake up, as it is time to go to school.
"Huh? Fin? What is it?"
"I just heard that Sindbad is going to try and checkmate tonight!"
"Checkmate what? Tonight?" Maron sits up with question marks all around her head.
"Yup...the target is the restaurant painting...the one we were going to checkmate when Sindbad and Chiaki get better!"
"Eh? If Sindbad is ready to checkmate, then that means Chiaki is better!" Maron screamed out. A few seconds later, she remebers something.
'What if Chiaki isn't Sindbad? What if Chiaki isn't better? I don't think I can stand another day without him!'
Maron gets dressed and goes out to the balcony.
Balcony:
"Maron...I see you're up early." Chiaki face appears and Maron chuckles.
"Yup...F-" Maron stops suddenly.
"What's wrong?"
"First thing in the morning, Miyako came and knocked on my door real heard."
"Oh? Is that it?"
"Yeah...so, Chiaki, I see you're feeling better, ne?"
Chiaki nods and grins.
"What was wrong with you?"
"I think I had the flu or something like that..."
"Eh? The flu?"
"Uh huh...someone I know came and helped me with my errands and stuff."
"That's good. Miyako and I were worried about you for the past few days."
"Really? Then you do care about me! Yeah! How about we go on a date tomorrow? I'm real busy tonight. Catching up on what I missed, you know."
"I'll see...if you act as swee-..." Maron stops suddenly because she is about to tell Chiaki that he is sweet.
"On one condition! You don't say anything inappropriate!"
"Deal! See you tomorrow, ne? I'll knock on your door at 7:00, sharp!" Chiaki grins.
Maron walks back inside. After she closes the door, she falls to the ground, holding her hand to her chest.
"Maron?" Fin is circling around, worrying about Maron, as usual.
"Ah...Chiaki. Finally, I have a date with you." Maron is sitting on the floor peacefully.
"Maron...Maron!" Fin yells closing her eyes.
"Chiaki...I can't wait until tomorrow..."
"Maron! Hey! Maron!" Fin, by now, is getting very angry.
"What should I wear? I can't exactly ask Miyako..."
"Maron! Earth to Maron!" Fin clutches her fists.
"Ah! I'll wear that blue silk dress!" Maron suddenly stands up.
"Maron!" Fin is breathing very hard because of all the yelling she's done, without getting any sort of response.
"Fin! What? Is something wrong?"
"No! It's just that I've been calling your name for the past few minutes!!" Fin says very sarcastically.
"Oh...oops." Maron sheepishly says over and over for one minute.
"What happened out there anyway? That...Chiaki...had better not done anything to you!" Fin puts her hands to her sides.
"I'll be out tomorrow, Fin! I have a date with Chiaki! Yeah!" Maron jumps up, clapping her hands.
"That blue haired guy?! Mou!" Fin put her hands onto her hips.
"Yup. That means no checkmate tomorrow! Gomen!" Maron held her hands as if she were praying.
"Ok...I'll send out the notice in three days. To give you a chance to rest after your BIG date!" Fin said sarcastically, even though she really meant it.
"Arigatou! Arigatou, Fin!" Maron ran out the door, celebrating.
'And Chiaki...still not feeling better, are you?'
Of course, Maron has to stand outside again. She notices that Miyako wasn't at school.
'Miyako's probably thinking of a plan to catch Jeanne...'
