After Kurogane's and Fay's fight, everyone seemed to be walking on their toes. Mokona and the children were very wary about what they said in the adult's presence, especially when they were both in the same room.
Which they barely were.
The ninja was fuming with anger and snapped at anyone, who dared to talk with him. The blonde on the other hand had stopped talking completely. He didn't even smile anymore.
Sakura had tears in her eyes when she confessed to Syaoran and Mokona that she had tried to get the two adults to talk to each other, unsuccessfully. The ninja and the mage had even walked separately to work: Kurogane had left way too early and Fay left so late he barely managed to arrive in time. At the bakery, they couldn't stand being in the same room together and the bakery's owner almost went nuts for the second time in only two days.
Mokona thought that it had a great way to cheer the black haired man up. Before Kurogane and Fay had fought, it had seen the mage hide a Christmas gift behind his back when the children had entered the room. So, of course there must be some other gifts hidden in the house.
"Pupupuu, Kuro-tan! I know what we should do now!" the white manju came to the living room, bouncing up and down.
The children were in their room and the mage had locked himself in his and Kurogane's room: he avoided the other one in every possible way.
"I don't want to do anything, especially not with you," the ninja grunted.
"But, Kuro-daddy, it has to be you. Who else would search the Christmas gifts with me?" the meatbun pouted. The black haired man wasn't interested at all but he really did not have anything else to do. At least, he could please the manju for once, so he agreed.
"Fine then." Mokona jumped happily onto Kurogane's shoulder. "Where are they then?"
"Mokona doesn't know. That's why were looking for them!"
"Why the hell did I agree to do this again?" Kurogane asked from himself while he was searching one of the kitchen's cupboards. Mokona was looking for the gifts from another cupboard, while singing:
"Mokona is a good kid, Mokona will get loads of presents for Christmas!"
"Next, we will look for the gifts from Sakura's, Syaoran's and Mokona's room!"
"I doubt they're there. The damn mage is not that stupid to hide them upstairs," the ninja growled when referred to the blonde.
The two of them had searched all the rooms downstairs, including the bathroom. But there was still one room left: the housekeeping room. Fay surely had spent a lot of time there, so it would be reasonable to hide the gifts there.
"Kuro-puu will look from the cupboards in the back and Mokona will search from the cupboards next to the door," the white meatbun ordered proudly.
"Why the hell should I listen to your orders?!" the ninja yelled but still obeyed the small thing's command. He opened the cupboard, which was most distant from the door and looked inside. There was a large green towel in a weird angle.
He pulled the towel off quietly until he could see what was behind it. Red paper was wrapped around a book-shaped present.
"Is there anything that looks like a Christmas present, Kuro-pan?" Mokona questioned.
"Not really," Kurogane answered after deciding it was better to stay quiet about what he really had found.
A/N: Thanks for reading the fifteenth chapter of the Tsubasa Advent Calendar! Today's theme was 'Gifts'!
Enonyymi: Today's chapter was written by Punainenpuolukka. I'm doing today's A/N alone again... Hmm. Have you guys already bought Christmas presents (I haven't yet, hahaha)? Remember, it's not the gift that's the most important, the thought behind it is.
Thanks for reading and for all the comments so far! I guess we'll answer your questions in a few days!
