The chapter in which Saburo makes more mistakes.
Geez...These chapters are too long for me. Help.
Saburo knew Kululu liked Mois. Or he at least didn't want anyone to date her. It didn't make much sense to him if he didn't want anyone to date her but didn't want to date her himself. Maybe he was over-protective and just trying to be sweet?
Kululu didn't seem like the protective type though. Especially since Saburo knew he had abandoned her in her time of need when she was in trouble.
He was in no way going to give up on his book though or setting them up. He knew there was hope now.
I got one...Saburo found a section that interested him. It fit well because it would deal with his previous mistake, the fake kidnapping too. He didn't think Angol Mois had still talked to Kululu about that, since she still seemed a little miffed.
"Making up." He read aloud. "Making up usually involves a whole lot of dramatic confessions, reassuring the other person about how much they care for them, and most importantly kissing. Kissing after a fight is such a rewarding feeling. To make your pals fall in love and experience this you have to get them to fight however. So this chapter is labeled 'the fight'." Saburo read.
Well, this was easy enough. Kululu and Angol Mois were already fighting. But I suppose I gotta make it worse now. Make it worse so that it can eventually get better.
He knew this was another one of those morally bad plans. Feed Kululu and Angol Mois information until they were fighting more so that they would dramatically confront each other, yell a lot and eventually realize how much they didn't like fighting and confess how unhappy they were and how much they cared about each other.
Saburo knew it had to be a two-sided fight though. Because Kululu probably was not the type to comfort anyone, he had to also be a little hurt.
He knows I'm trying to set them up. But it'll throw a huge wrench into his perception if I say bad things about Mois. Saburo realized.
He hated to do this, but he knew he needed them to repair things about that Viper too and the whole leaving her to die thing.
Saburo decided to get Angol Mois out of the way first. That was probably way easier than Kululu. It was kind of easy to make Angol Mois mad over little things, especially since she was already mad.
He was hanging around the Hinata House pretending (or really actually) playing video games when he saw Angol Mois. "Oh Mois! It was absolutely terrible."
"What was?" Angol Mois asked concerned.
"Well I was hanging out with Kululu yesterday...And I know I shouldn't gossip behind my friend's back but he said some bad things about you." Saburo winced. It was a lie and Angol Mois would have to confront Kululu on it eventually and he'd be forced to admit he didn't feel negative about her to reassure her.
"Oh. So it's nothing new then." Angol Mois said in a bored tone. "What did he say this time? That I'm evil and planning to steal his soul? That my toxic cuteness will be the death of him?" She asked.
"Umm...The second one doesn't really sound like an insult." Saburo frowned. She wasn't getting as riled up about the fact that Kululu had said mean things to her as he had thought she would. Perhaps she was just normally patient about the fact Kululu was a jerk.
"It isn't." A wry smile crossed her lips. "But I think Kululu doesn't know that. I'm keeping him in the dark."
Saburo just fell silent for a moment. "He told me mean things about how little he enjoyed your company. How your voice grated on his ears and all that." He tried to come up with some crap, "How you weren't that smart."
Angol Mois did wince insulted. "That's just normal Kululu stuff. That's expected of him. I don't think...I didn't think he meant any of it though." She was still thinking of the Viper.
"He um...Said you were annoying and obnoxious and that he didn't want to spend time with you?" Saburo tried another line.
"I...I know..." Angol Mois's voice cracked a bit, hurt now in it.
Saburo didn't really want her to be hurt. He wanted her to be be mad. He wondered if it was her own insecurity making her think that Kululu actually believed this or if Kululu had told her she was obnoxious on multiple occasions. He hated to think it was the second but it was probably the second.
Kululu sucked a whole lot. No wonder he didn't have a girlfriend nor a whole lot of friends. Saburo was seeing a side of him he didn't see a whole lot.
"Does he...say that often or…?" Saburo knew she sounded like she was familiar to those words.
"Y-yeah. But I mean I don't get bothered by it, usually. I mean he says that to everybody. I thought he just got easily embarrassed but after the Viper..." She sighed. "There's no reason to get mad at the truth. Thank you for telling me but I can only try to be different than what he thinks I am."
She was too good and pure for Kululu.
Saburo frowned. But I want you angry! You need to confront him so he'll apologize and you two will make up. "He also said flip phones were tacky."
"WHAT?" Now Angol Mois's voice was boiling in anger.
Ah. So that was the chord I needed to hit to make her angry. "I mean I didn't lead with that statement because I thought it was no big deal, but now that I think about it, he dissed your tech a lot. Said that angolian tech was tacky and that his stuff was way better than any cell phone."
"But my cell phone can destroy planets! It has instant connection and high speed data. It's better than anything in the world. Does the planet destroying mean nothing to him?" Angol Mois asked desperate.
"He said planet destroying wasn't that cool." Saburo shrugged. "That it was kind of one-dimensional and kind of boring."
Mois boiled in rage. She tightened her fists. "Ugh! Just ugh! I can't believe it! That Kululu!" He had never seen her this angry.
As expected she stormed off in a big huff, grumbling in anger.
Saburo grinned. Kululu next.
Kululu would be much harder. After all, he was the one who had wronged Mois with the Viper. That and Saburo didn't know what about Mois could make Kululu mad.
He didn't show up just to talk about Mois. That would make Kululu suspicious. Instead he invited Kululu to watch him skateboard and hang out first, so that he could slowly bring up Mois.
Kululu watched as Saburo skateboard, wondering if Saburo would ask him another 'favor' concerning Mois. But when he heard nothing for a full hour his suspicion drained.
"So I was talking to Mois the other day..." Saburo trailed off.
"Uh-oh." Kululu grit his teeth.
"And yeah, you're right. You probably aren't good for each other." Saburo lied.
"W-what?" Kululu was surprised Saburo was dropping the subject of him and Mois so quickly.
"I mean she was rather rude. Really rude. She said you were mean-spirited-"
"Ku, ku, ku, well I am!" Kululu boasted.
"Ugly, and a creep." Saburo flipped his skateboard. "That she hated spending time with." He pretended he wasn't looking over at Kululu to gauge his reaction.
This could blow up very poorly if Kululu swore his revenge and decided to destroy Angol Mois for insulting him.
Kululu was just silent. "I...I guess that makes sense. I mean, she's never said any of that to my face, but I kind of suspected something was off when she never said that..." He wondered briefly if she really didn't like spending time with him or if it was because he had said he didn't like spending time with her to get that Viper off her back.
"She also said you weren't very smart." Saburo continued. The tech thing had worked on Angol Mois. Maybe it would work on Kululu? "That your inventions were boring and uncreative. That all angolian tech is better, and that you can't make anything cool."
"WHAT." Kululu jumped up. "How dare she? My tech is amazing! I'll prove her wrong! Ku, ku, ku. Boy, am I going to get my revenge on her for saying that!" Kululu was completely riled up and angry.
Wow...They are exactly the same. The same thing set them off. I suppose the other stuff they had some insecurities about so they were hurt….They really are perfect for each other. Now it was time for Saburo to back off and let them run to each other and confront one another.
They did not run to each other. Instead Angol Mois avoided Kululu and Kululu hurried to his lab as soon as Saburo dropped him back off at the Hinata House.
"Where you going?" He asked. He saw Angol Mois turn around and leave when she saw any sign of Kululu in the vicinity. He saw that Kululu was heading the opposite direction.
No! This isn't how this is supposed to go. They're supposed to compliment the heck out of each other and reassure the other one about their insecurities. Saburo frowned.
"Revenge." Kululu said quickly. "I have stuff to work on. Don't worry, she won't ever diss my tech again."
Saburo gulped. What the heck was Kululu planning?
Does he honestly care about her zero? Wait...He's not going to cause pain to her is he? That sounded like a threat.
Did he believe Kululu was a good enough person to not carry it out?
The answer was no.
He just hoped Kululu didn't implement his revenge soon. He asked Keroro personally to keep an eye on Mois's safety just to make sure.
Kululu worked all night on his revenge, he didn't get any sleep drinking mostly energy drinks to stay awake. In the morning he headed to the invasion room with his revenge.
"Kululu. You look tired. Keroro hasn't requested you make anything yet." Giroro pointed out.
"Ku, ku, ku. I don't need orders to make an invention." Kululu waited for when Angol Mois was paying attention to take the drape off of his invention. "Ta-da! I created a flash-drive that could put in a person's arm and direct data and information directly into them. No more boring lectures. You'll just instantly know the knowledge you search for."
Everybody looked shocked. "K-kululu...This is a helpful invention. I mean...It could change the world!" Keroro realized. "Keron would use it all the time in schools. We could be the smartest race around. But you're never the type to help people..."
"What's the catch?" Giroro asked suspiciously.
Kululu grinned. "Isn't it cool? Isn't Keronian tech the greatest? Isn't my stuff the greatest?" Kululu asked.
Kululu's desperate revenge plan was fishing for compliments. He was determined to impress Angol Mois and get her to take back her insult about his inventions. Ku, ku, ku. You'll be swooning over my inventions when I'm done. Even if I….blegh, have to appeal to your morals and decency. Kululu wanted to puke and not only because of sleep deprivation.
"Angolian tech is cooler. I mean...It's not that great." Angol Mois pretended to look bored.
"Mois! It's going to change the world!" Keroro was super excited.
Kululu dropped it on the floor and crushed it. Well, if Mois doesn't like it, it's useless to me.
"AHHHHHHH!" Giroro, Keroro, Dororo and Tamama all screamed at what Kululu had done.
"I'll make something better than. Ku, ku, ku. My tech is way cooler than any of your stuff. And I'll make you accept that. It is on." His glasses sparked with a ferocity.
Angol Mois glared at him. "You'll never make me believe it. My cell phone is way cooler. It destroys planets."
"Oh, excuse me that not everybody can destroy a planet, Mois!" Kululu waved his hands, "We can't all be perfect, amazing beings." He grinned a bit, "At least you have the same faults as us, unable to complete your mission too and stuck here. Ku, ku, ku."
Angol Mois frowned. She crossed her arms and turned to Keroro. "The invasion meeting, Uncle? I no longer want to talk to Kululu."
Keroro was still crying over the flash drive. "No...Unlimited knowledge….I could have directly downloaded anime into my brain...It would have been amazing."
Kululu wanted to tell him he was an idiot, but he was too focused on Angol Mois. He wanted her to be impressed with his inventions. He really did.
Why couldn't she just compliment him and say he did a good job?
Their fight didn't get any better after that. Although Kululu's anger at first displayed as him desperately trying to impress Angol Mois through inventions, Angol Mois's didn't display nearly as harmlessly.
She usually gave him the silent treatment, pretending to ignore him, talking to Dororo over him, and her favorite 'pretending he didn't even exist', because she was so hurt.
When they were forced to interact during invasion meetings they almost always blew up at each other though.
"Come on, stop being so stubborn and admit I'm right. Why do you always have to be so annoying?" Kululu asked. "You don't have the moral high ground here, you're not better than me in anyway. Even though you think you are."
Angol Mois just glared. "I am not annoying! I am putting my foot down for the first, and hopefully last time. You can't keep treating me like this. I do have the moral high ground. You're the one who's always treating me wrong. I don't even get paid yet I put up with you and work with you." Angol Mois huffed.
"Ku, ku, ku. Yeah and you aren't going to stop because you want to impress your beloved 'Uncle'." Kululu teased her. "So pure, so virtuous. You don't do work to actually help. You do it for your own selfish benefit-"
Angol Mois frowned. She wanted to yell some more at Kululu but yelling never worked. He just always deflected anger and threw it back at the person. "Fine. I get it. I get your point." She turned to Keroro. "I can not work with Kululu any longer. I do not want to be part of the tech team."
Keroro's eyes widened. "B-but..But! Free labor and work!"
Kululu's eyes widened his glasses cracking. S-so...She really hates me that much..He put on a new pair of glasses, falling silent for a moment.
First Saburo leaving for America and now I learn that Mois's secretly hated me all this time. "Do what you want." Kululu shrugged. "I don't care."
"I know you don't. After all you don't care if I get hurt. As long as it doesn't hurt your job." Angol Mois hissed.
Kululu winced remembering the Viper. He didn't know what to say, especially in front of the whole platoon. He wasn't one for apologies. And he doubted she'd take it too after all the other bad stuff she felt for him.
So he just watched as Keroro pleaded with her to reconsider things.
Angol Mois stopped blowing up at him. Instead she continued the silent treatment and ignoring him, which was Kululu's least favorite type of punishment.
When people were mad at him he was problematic. Their negative attention was still attention and he liked it. There was probably some psychological thing behind it that he didn't want to over-analyze but the silent treatment and Mois giving him no attention hurt him so much.
So he started doing the wrong things. If she already hates me, might as well get her to hate me more. After all talking is at least something. Paying attention to me even in a bad sense is better than….than this. He decided.
He was a jerk till the end. So he'd pick on Mois however much he wanted until she paid attention to him.
He started with casual jerk pranks. Stealing all her socks, shrinking down her clothes in the Hinata laundry, putting something in her food to make it grow tentacles, all sorts of terrible things.
Each one got a scream out of Angol Mois and her eventually hitting the wall or going outside to hit the ground with her lucifer spear.
Kululu would be lounging on the couch eating some none tainted food and smiling when she came back. "Oh? Mois~, Did something go wrong?" He would ask in that jerk voice, knowing that they both knew who had done the evil deeds.
Angol Mois frowned at him. She just shook her head and didn't reply to him. She knew how Kululu worked. If he was trying to get this much of a rise out of her and was devoting more attention to being a jerk to her than Giroro out of all people he must be pretty mad that she had chosen to do the silent treatment.
She'd continue it then. I'm pretty hurt after all. And perhaps the technology stuff I could forgive if...If he hadn't been so mean. I mean he doesn't care about my life or well being at all when I valued our friendship so highly. She just walked away.
He didn't deserve a response.
Kululu just frowned.
Saburo waited for Kululu and Angol Mois to have their dramatic make up scene, but nothing happened. Every time he stopped by the Hinata house they were fighting or not talking to each other.
Their was a rift growing in their relationship more and more. Saburo wondered if it was his fault.
Had this plan blew up in his face? And if there was no make up could there ever be love? No. Because they weren't even friends anymore. They just didn't like each other.
Crap. Crap. Should have known that Kululu would have taken his revenge out on Mois. Should have known he'd be a jerk to her if he was mad. Kululu was a bad person. Saburo winced at how bad his friend was.
Should he apologize to both of them on the other's behalf? But that wouldn't be genuine. And they might start fighting again.
He'd suggest to Keroro to try to get them to make up. Keroro could push them into having a genuine make up scene after all.
Keroro of course, knew there was only one person at fault for Kululu and Mois's fight. It was Kululu. Angol Mois was an innocent person and would never do anything wrong.
Keroro also knew that Kululu and Mois needed to make up. The invasion was really faltering without them working together.
"Even I agree that they work better as a team then two people who start bickering every time they enter the same room as each other." Giroro frowned. "I don't know what happened, but it's like they're going through some really...really messy break up."
"It's probably over something petty." Tamama shrugged. "That woman is petty. Maybe Kululu insulted her phone? That's the only time I've ever made her mad." He didn't see their fight as a big deal.
"Without Mois on the tech team, Kululu's been getting swamped. He's needed up to help him with things and...It's not great being alone with Kululu." Dororo complained. "Not only that but two friends fighting is very sad. We need to fix this."
Keroro agreed. "Y-yeah! We need Mois and Kululu to get along! For the invasion's sake!" He pumped his fist in the air.
They all circled Kululu when Kululu entered the room.
"Whaddya want?" Kululu demanded. He had a saw in his hand and was chopping some of the legs off the tallest chair- Mois's, so she'd be super short. It was his latest jerky prank and plea for attention.
"You need to apologize to Mois." Keroro ordered. "I know you did wrong and something horrible, but you need to apologize to her."
"Ku, ku, ku! Why am I always blamed for everything?" Kululu asked.
"Maybe because you have a saw in your hand, right now?" Giroro asked not feeling sympathy for him.
"Tch." Kululu frowned. "Well, surprise, surprise, I'm not at fault for our fight….Mostly. Okay so I did kind of abandon her when a Viper was attacking, but I was going to talk to her about that...Well, she's the one who's been ignoring me!" Kululu huffed, childishly. "Not my fault!"
"Kululu...You're acting like a child." Giroro sighed. Usually Kululu took pride in his actions at antagonizing someone, but now he was shifting the blame to Angol Mois.
Maybe it was a two-sided fight. Kululu seemed relatively hurt. Or more likely Kululu was not getting the reaction he had expected from fighting with Mois and desired a much more angry reaction instead of the silent treatment.
"Kululu...It doesn't matter who was in the wrong or not. It matters who takes the first step to apologizing." Dororo advised.
"And you think I'm the type to make up and apologize? What do you think I am, nice? No, she's going to have to apologize to me first! Ku, ku, ku. She said some pretty awful things. You'd be surprised that those sorts of things even came from Mois's mouth. She's not as nice as she pretends to be." He was pretty insulted.
"Do you want her to be off of the tech team forever?" Giroro asked. "Because you're drowning in work without her."
"And so am I!" Keroro begged. "Please make up with Mois for both our sakes. She needs to be doing work. And she's never once refused work before."
"Ku. I can handle the tech team on my own." Kululu tried to say. "I don't care about Mois. I don't need her to help me."
The platoon tried to desperately plead with him, but Kululu would not listen.
After learning that negotiating had fallen short, Saburo tried to take matters into his own hands.
"You know...You probably should apologize..." Saburo tried to trail off.
"About what?" Kululu demanded. "Ku, ku, ku? All the jerky pranks? I'm a jerk till the end. This is expected of me. And you know better than anyone I'm not at fault."
"Well, I mean...It was just technology…." Saburo tried to trail off, "And she probably said it because she's still hurt over that supposed kidnapping thing. Which you...umm haven't apologized for yet, right?"
"Just technology? Just technology! She said my inventions were uncreative! And no matter how many boxes of inventions I keep putting in front of her door with letters saying how amazing my stuff is she won't compliment them and sends them back in broken pieces. Ku, ku, ku!" Kululu grit his teeth.
Oops. She probably thinks you're insulting her since I said you insulted her tech too. Saburo was sweating. He didn't pick up on the fact that Kululu's revenge was trying to impress that
"And besides that it's about more than the technology now. She said I was an ugly, dumb, creep that she hated spending time with, right? Why should I apologize for that? Ku! She was the one who insulted me." Kululu pointed out.
Saburo bit his lip. Kululu sure did believe his lie. Kululu sure did trust him.
"I'm just saying...Maybe you should confront her? Tell her that you won't stand for those insults. Stand up for yourself!" Saburo suggested. "And maybe clear up the Viper thing. So there's no guilt and you're in the complete moral right."
Kululu listened and thought for a moment. He shouldn't discredit Saburo's advice. "Fine. The standing up for myself is a good idea. I don't think she'll listen or talk, but...I won't stand for being insulted. Ku!"
At least they'll get talking. I just...Gotta watch from afar and make sure he actually brings up that kidnapping. Maybe Mois's anger will lessen thanks to it and in turn Kululu's will to. Saburo thought.
He waited until Kululu left.
Kululu approached Angol Mois outside in the backyard. She was not paying attention to him and was instead hanging up laundry.
Since all of her clothes had 'mysteriously been shrunken' she had to borrow Natsumi's.
"Listen, you're being a real jerk about this. I've never said nearly anything as bad to you as you said to me." Kululu hissed. "It's not like I say you're ugly or anything like that. I'm sure it wouldn't effect you and you'd just ignore me though. Just cuz you're ignoring me doesn't mean you have the moral high ground!"
"I have a lot higher ground than you. I'm taller." Angol Mois pointed out. "And true, you didn't say anything like that but you've said a lot worse."
"I don't care about your stupid height! And you never were effected by what I said. And at least I was up-front about my feelings instead of hiding them and talking behind someone's back. God, Mois, you're just so awful and dumb."
"I may be awful and dumb but at least I'm not so terrible as to leave someone to die when they've been kidnapped." Angol Mois hissed. Apparently she was still mad about that. "You were not the person I thought you were. I can't believe I trusted you."
"You never trusted me or liked me. You just put up with me." Kululu just yelled back.
Giroro covered his ears from inside his tent. They were fighting again. He couldn't really fix their problems.
"Well I sure as heck can't put up with you now. You could say, you're dead to me?" Angol Mois frowned. She was talking to him now, sure but all her words were so cruel.
Kululu took a step back. I knew it. She confirmed things. Well, I won't stand for it. I'll stick up for myself just like Saburo advised.
"I hate you." He said with a hiss. That ought to get a rise out of her. She'd be angry and just start yelling or something.
Instead she recoiled. Perhaps she hadn't expected the ferocity in his line. Perhaps she was just getting tired of all the yelling, but she opened her mouth to try to speak more but instead tears streamed down her face. She sniffled and started crying.
"M-mois-!?" Crap this doesn't make me feel better. I...I didn't expect her to start crying. She hadn't acted like she was hurt during their fighting, just like she was really mad. He walked closer and she crouched on the ground trying to hide her face as she just cried.
She was a lot more emotional than Kululu, and it was easy to wear her down.
Maybe I was at fault for our fight….I mean should I really have been that defensive about my technology, my one skill? And I always knew I was ugly and a creep and she hated spending time with me...So I shouldn't have been so confrontational . "Mois...Mois…? Shh...Shhh..Umm...I'm sorry." He didn't want her to cry. He hated seeing her cry.
"I knew you hated me. I mean I knew it the moment you left me to die. I just...I didn't expect it to hurt when you said it." She sniffled.
Kululu moved a little bit closer. She wouldn't pry her hands off her face as if to cover her eyes, but he tried to reach up anyway to touch her or offer some amount of comfort.
He didn't really know what to do in this situation. He was the one at fault after all and he knew she probably didn't want him to touch her. "I don't hate you...I don't hate you. I was lying. And I wasn't leaving you to die."
"Yes you were. You said you wouldn't care if any harm came to me." Angol Mois snapped.
"I was trying to talk to you about that after you were released. I'm not...Not strong like Giroro...I'm not charismatic like Keroro...I couldn't save you like they could have.." Kululu's voice was low, a little insecure. "However I could use my intellect. And after analyzing the situation I realized he only wanted to hurt you because of your connection to me. So I pretended that it wouldn't be a big deal. B-because at that time your safety was my main concern, not...Not your feelings. You just never let me explain."
Angol Mois looked down at him, shocked. "So..You would care if I got hurt?"
"Of course I'd care!" Kululu's voice raised. "You're my tech partner! And...I'm sorry for getting...Over emotional about you not liking my technology. I shouldn't have acted so immaturely. You've got different sorts of views on technology since you're connected to your phone and all. I...I shouldn't have been over-dramatic." He just wanted her to stop crying.
"Me not liking your technology?" Angol Mois looked confused. "But Kululu I love your technology. I think you're inventions are super cool!"
"Ku, sure. You don't have to lie about your thoughts about me. How I'm creepy, ugly and you don't want to hang around me? How you said I was dumb?" Kululu reminded. "I...I no longer care or am mad about it. Just please stop crying. Those tears sparkle. It really hurts."
"But…I didn't say any of those things, Kululu..." Angol Mois was super confused. "You're the one who said I was obnoxious and annoying, and that you didn't like angolian technology and flip phones."
Kululu frowned. "Mois! You destroy planets. How could I not like angolian technology and your lucifer spear? I'm its biggest fan. I'm a big nerd for that sort of stuff." Kululu pointed out.
Where had she gotten that false information? Was that why she was mad.
Angol Mois scooped him up in her arms and hugged him. Kululu was surprised by the contact but since she was still sniffling he hugged back. He stroked her hair with his fingers.
Nobody was really watching or so he hoped. "I don't really think you're annoying, you know. Don't cry over that. And I definitely don't hate you."
"You've been being so mean to me though! Pulling so many jerky pranks and saying such mean stuff!" Angol Mois pointed out.
"Uhhh..." Kululu didn't really have a defense. "I was mad about the stuff you...thought about me." Which might have been wrong or she was lying about it.
"I don't not like spending time with you. I enjoyed the tech team with you and being your friend." She reassured. Kululu probably needed just as much reassurance as her. "And you're not dumb, you're the smartest person I know."
"And…?"
"You're creepy, sometimes. But I like you anyway. And you aren't ugly. I like the way you look." Angol Mois reassured.
So Kululu was insecure just like her. She hugged him tighter, and felt Kululu hugging her back. He reached a hand to her cheek to stroke it.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." He repeated in a quiet voice. "I...I never said any of those things, but I shouldn't have...Been so mean to you."
"You shouldn't have pulled so many mean jerk pranks." Angol Mois scolded. "Why'd you do that? Trying to make me feel as bad as you were feeling?" She tilted her head to the side. She honestly didn't know the reason why.
"Attention. I'm problematic." Kululu admitted.
"Awww…." She pat his head and nuzzled the top of his head. It made him really happy to have her giving him positive attention again and not mad at him, but he also just liked her touching him.
"I just don't understand…? Why would Saburo give me false information about what you said?" Angol Mois asked.
Saburo...Wait he's the one who told me the stuff about Angol Mois too! Why would Saburo want them to fight?
Unless….He did admit that the feeling of holding her wasn't a privilege that he usually gave himself. It was nice. Really nice.
I read somewhere that making up has therapeutic effects and strengths bonds… Was he going after that? It also made people more comfortable with one another usually.
"I missed you. I can't wait to get back to the tech team with you." Angol Mois told him.
Kululu was focused on something else. He lied! He hasn't given up on setting us up. And this time...Because of his actions he got Angol Mois to cry!
He would excuse a lot of things that Saburo did, but this one was not something he'd excuse. Angol Mois tears were inexcusable.
He had to stop this. Saburo could no longer continue trying to set them up. It was hurting Mois way too much.
He tightened her grip on her.
"K-kululu?" Angol Mois asked.
"I know why we both were really mad each other and were fed false information. Ku." Kululu looked angry.
"Why?" Angol Mois asked.
"Saburo wanted us to get in a fight. He then wanted us to make up dramatically and probably sappily. Maybe he wanted us to start kissing after yelling at each other cuz we couldn't be without each other or some crap like that? Ku, ku, ku." Kululu frowned.
"K-kissing…?!" Angol Mois got incredibly embarrassed and dropped Kululu.
"Ow." Kululu groaned. He didn't mind Angol Mois blushing. He just wished she wouldn't be so painful about dropping him.
"W-why?" Angol Mois was still blushing.
"He wants to set us up for some reason. But I won't let that happen. This time he's gone too far." Kululu growled. "Ku, ku, ku. Just thought I'd inform you of his plan."
Angol Mois blushed, but now things made a lot of sense why Saburo was acting so weird around her and all. "He...Should not have fed me false information….Hurting our relationship. Messing with it is cruel." She was now very angry.
They both were. And Kululu knew he would not let this happen again. He would not fall for whatever was Saburo's next trap.
I won't let him make you uncomfortable with this dumb thing. Kululu promised Mois mentally.
Saburo watched a ways away. It had been tough but at the end they had finally made up. There had been no kissing involved but they sure had embraced more than he ever had seen them before. Even Giroro, who was now eating noodles as he just awkwardly watched them talked and caress each other's faces was beginning to feel awkward by the amount of embracing.
It had worked in the end. They had made up. They both looked super mad at him, but things were working.
He was the best wingman around. Kululu might not want his help but he was going to give it anyway.
Please review, sorry this chapter was a problem shoujo manga cliches usually are. But if you have any shoujo manga cliches to suggest I'd be open to listening. If I can't work them in this story I might be able to use them in a one-shot. I mean I don't dislike shoujo, I actually love it, despite it's problematic elements.
