Hiya! This is my 4th chapter! I finally got to read the last two books in Tokyo mew mew on Manga fox! And I also read one of most favored author's stories! Ya you know who you are! Anyways… enjoy the chapter! Oh but wait just one more sentence… I was wrong and did not mean for Pudding to use the term of respect; Kun, I think I was meaning for Ichigo to say that by accident…
Ichigo was sweeping the floor in the corner… she had been sweeping the same spot ever since they'd gotten back from the fight, which was a two minute walk… so Ichigo had been sweeping that same spot for 2 and a half minutes, like not even moving at all just in one spot, also her eyes were dulled and her usually spunk was gone.
"Hey Ichigo? I think that part of the floor id done!" said Pudding from where she was waiting at a table; due to the fact Ichigo was not really doing anything the rest of the girls (Even Mint!) were waiting all of the tables.
"Ichigo, the next customer that walks in through the door is your responsibility, you will wait their table and help them with whatever want help with." Zakuro said using her in a case of Ichigo emergency plan.
The door opened, it had been five minutes to the exact when this happened… Ichigo put the broom away and walked towards the person; a boy wearing a black hoodie with black jeans, his face was shadowed by his hood that he had on, so you couldn't see his face.
"Hi. Welcome to Café mew mew, what can I do for you." Asked Ichigo; her voice completely emotionless.
"Hi! I would like to order a strawberry ice cream!" The boy said sitting down at the table Ichigo had given him… somehow Ichigo knew his voice… but her depression haze override that fact, but Pudding who wasn't depressed noticed and began to inspect this new stranger. Ichigo returned moments later with a strawberry ice cream.
"Thanks!" the boy said taking it from her hand, he then paid for it and gave it to Ichigo.
"Here. You might need this more!" He joked but was actually serious about giving her the frozen treat.
"Huh? Why did you gave me ice cream? I got right flavor right? I confused!" said Ichigo with the first time in five minutes: emotion! (Confusion! Also she was talking funny 'cause she is part depressed part confused!)
"Something's suspicious! Here." Said Pudding; extra suspicious of the guy because he had gotten Ichigo to be more… Ichigo-ish.
"Aha! My theory is that this stranger is either Masaya or…." Pudding jumped up to the stranger and yanked off his hood. "… It's Kish-san!" she finished reveling the trouble making teen.
"Hey! Pudding! I was in Disguise!" complained Kish.
"Huh? Kish… why are you here Kisshu-kun?" Ichigo said eyes still dull, voice still flat.
"Umm… Ichigo you know you just called him Kisshu-kun right?" asked Lettuce.
"What?" she said. Then she left the table and began to sweep the floor in the corner again.
"Wow she's really out of it!" Kish commented watching her as she put the ice cream in her pocket and began to sweep.
"Yeah she's been like this for the whole time you've managed to stay away from her, and be with your friends at your home!" Pudding commented.
"Actually Tart's my cousin not my friend." Said Kish.
"Yep! That's true!" Tart said teleporting right behind Pudding,
"Taru-Taru!" Cried Pudding turning around to see her friend… a little to quickly though because he was still in the middle of saying something and she was saying something and he was right behind her so when she turned around… They kissed.
"P-p-p-Pudding! What was that for!" he asked; his face bright red.
"Taru-Taru! Why'd you kiss me?" Pudding asked at the same time; face also red.
"… Uh…" that was all they could manage to each other.
"Well that's funny." Mint said watching the two. Kish and the others were snickering also; except for Zakuro because she's too chill to do something like that (though her eyes did sparkle with amusement) and Ichigo because she was sweeping in a big depressed haze in the corner.
Pudding smiled "Do ya want to get some candy?" She asked
"O-ok!" he stuttered. They both waved good bye to the others and left the café.
"Closing time!" Zakuro said to each table in the place (only four guests were there anyway…) the people were freaked out by her cold stare and tone; they left immediately.
"Now Kish." She said facing him "Why are you here?"
"Oh… y'know I just came here to pick up my Cat!" He said. Looking at the corner… but Ichigo wasn't there, then she walked into the room, wearing a white knee-length dress with a red ribbon tied around the waist, with a bow off to the side of it. Ichigo was also wearing her chocker, her hair was up in pig-tails. And she was wearing strappy style high heels.
Everyone became silent as they looked at her, she looked amazing.
"Hey everybody. I think I'm supposed to go somewhere…" she said kind of sounding tired and flat.
"Yeah! You're coming with me Kitty~Cat!" Kish said grabbing her hand and teleporting away.
"Ok" she answered, her whole self seeming to be in a glaze of tiredness, depression, and other things that would make her randomly go off with an obsessed alien with out any concerns or questions.
Pudding's POV
She smiled, she was holding her friend's hand and going to the candy shop, what could make this moment any better?
"Hey Pudd?" asked Tart
"Yeah Taru-Kun?" she replied
"How come you always smile?"
"I—I made a promise, to my mama when she was dieing; I promised her that I would smile on every other day but that day."
"Oh, you know I never did hate you, after all you are my friend… right?" he asked
"Hehe! Of course you're my friend!" Pudding said cheerily,
"Yeah… my friend." He repeated softer to himself. He turned off of the path to the candy shop.
"Taru-Taru?"
He took her over to the park instead. He faced her, Yellow eyes looking at her face.
'Oh, Taru-Taru! Your better than you think you are!' she thought.
They faced each other, and slowly they kissed; a real one not just an accident kiss.
Kish's POV
He teleported to the top of Tokyo tower, then Ichigo seemed to finally realize that she was with him.
"Kish?"
"Yes?"
"We're on Tokyo tower?" she asked
"Yeah… that ok with you?"
"Yeah."
"You look… very pretty." He complemented. He tried to summon up enough courage to ask her what he wanted to ask.
"Ichigo, Will… Will you please be with me!"
"What do you mean Kisshu? I am with you."
"I mean will you … will you go out with me?" he asked.
"No. I am never going to date again, that is what I'm going to do in order to not be sad again, loneliness is more favorable than heartbreak." She replied. His heart melted, what a foolish girl, being alone won't help hurts. But what could he do? she had made up her mind… for now at least. 'I'll give her some time then I'll help her get over Masaya… with a little danger…'
It was simple, if Ichigo wouldn't stop moping by the end of the week he would add some action in her life to get her sparked again.

Sorry this chapter is soo short but I had covered all of the things I had needed to say… also sorry if you found this chapter boring… the next chapter will be more exciting and longer! That's a promise!
My brother told me I looked like an anime character today… except for my hair colour, he said my brown was too dark… it's not that dark though I mean you can still tell it's brown easy (instead of mistaking it for black). Anyways being told I looked like an anime character by the way I looked and dressed made me feel happy… not sure if the comment was a complement or diss though…
Stay ready for the next chapter! Coming soon! And to those who have reviewed, going to review or have put my story on favorites or alerts…thank you! ^o^
