Love and Ninjas

Chapter 15

Garu slammed his locker door shut and leaned against it. He tilted his head up and closed his eyes. Just when his mind was about to drift off, he had felt a burning and tingling slap across his right cheek. Garu's eyes flung open and he whirled around to face a steaming Pucca. "What the hell was that for?" shrieked Garu. Pucca snorted, "Like you don't know! How could you do this?" Garu looked confused and a little bit freaked out. "What…? What do you mean?" Garu asked. "You kissed Ching! You kissed her and you got all mad at me for getting together with Tobe, which I clearly DiD NOT!" Pucca shouted. "What the—? This has to be another one of Ring-Ring's tricks! You have to believe me!" Garu desperately pleaded. Pucca shot him dagger eyes and in a low and haunting voice, she said, "Hurts…doesn't it?"

Ching stood in front of the school bathroom mirror and tried to redo and perfect her black braids when all of a sudden Pucca stormed in. "Hey Pucca! Whoa, what's wrong? You look steamed!" Ching regarded. Pucca grabbed Ching by the collar of her purple polo shirt and spoke in a voice only Ching could hear. "You…SNAKE. Do it again and I'll rip those scrawny braids right out of your deformed head. GOT THAT?" Pucca released Ching harshly and stomped out of the bathroom. Ching was scared and confused. Why was Pucca so mad at her? What did she do?

Tappita tappita went Ring-Ring's computer keyboard as she edited photos on her new pink laptop. Ring-Ring was in the middle of progressing with her evil plan. On her computer screen was a picture of Garu from his web profile, and Ring-Ring was editing and chopping up the pictures until it looked like he had his lips pursed. Then, she took pictures of Ching from her profile and did the same thing. Put them together and Bam you have a picture of Garu and Ching kissing! Yumi, her dog, barked and ran around her room. Ring-Ring was annoyed of her puny little dog and yelled at her to shut up. Just as she was about to go back to editing, her antique pink phone rang. "Hey! You've got Ring-Ring! This BETTER be important!"

"Ring-Ring, it's Dada. When do I cm=ome and pick up the photos?"
"Hmmm…how 'bout now? I'm practically done anyways."
"Okay, be there in a minute."
"You better." And with that, Ring-Ring slammed down the handset and went back to finishing the last touches.

About five minutes later, Dada stood outside of Ring-Ring's ginormous house, waiting for her to get the photo. Before Dada ran off, Ring-Ring planted a giant, wet and disgusting kiss on his mouth. When she closed the door, Dada wiped his lips with his sleeve. He continued to walk back to the Goh-Rong, where his delivery was due.

Pucca took the pictures in her hand and couldn't believe what she saw. One picture had Garu holding Ching's hand. Another showcased them kissing. And there was more where that came from. Pucca was speechless. But not tear-less. She buried her face into her pillow and cried until her river turned into a lake. Dada patted her back and said soothing words. Finally, Dada couldn't take the guilt anymore. "Pucca, get up." He said firmly. Pucca sniffled and slowly sat up, "What…?" Dada sighed heavily and said, "I'm sorry. I have to tell you something."
