Maka's POV
"Oh, I see" Tsubaki said worriedly.
I nodded my head as I frowned. I was telling Tsubaki why Kid wasn't here.
Apparently, she thinks it was actually a good thing...well, besides the cheating part.
"But still. You didn't cheat on him. Soul just kissed you but you rejected him. Then you broke up with Kid and officially started dating Soul. That doesn't mean you meant for that to happen!" Tsubaki said trying to cheer me up.
I sighed but then gave out a small smile.
"It's alright Tsubaki. That was in the past. Anyways, since our boss is coming tomorrow, we'll have to train Soul really hard! He can really be a handful" I said.
Tsubaki giggled as she nodded.
"No problem but..don't you have to wear-"
"Please don't remind me" I said glumly as I put my head down.
Tsubaki sighed sadly. "Do you want me to wear it?" she offered.
I looked up but shook my head.
"You've done it this week. It's my job to do it. Him here or not, I'll do it" I stated as I started walking towards the closet.
"Sorry" Tsubaki muttered as she went to Soul.
Tsubaki's POV
I feel really bad! I wanted to volunteer for being in that embarrassing costume but Maka's stubbornness refused. The costume though is really horrible! It'll be so embarrassing!
But then I instantly had an idea.
So I quickly went to Soul who now had his uniform.
The uniform was a simple gray t-shirt with a matching cap. Except, he had his on backwards..
"Hi Soul!" I said cheerfully as I smiled.
Soul smiled back as he nod his head.
"So where's Maka?" he asked. "Isn't she supposed to train me..?"
I kept smiling as I shook my head.
"Sorry but Maka is wearing the costum- I mean, s-she's...uh...taking out the trash!"I said. I felt a tear of sweat run down of the back of my head.
Soul raised a brow but nodded again.
"Okay.." he said and then took a big breath.
"So, how do we start?"
Phew! That was close!
Soul's POV
She does know that I'm not stupid, right?
Either way, I went along with it.
"Okay. So, what your supposed to do is get the type of yogurt the customers want. Like if they either want plain, vanilla or strawberry, you get the point" she explained.
"Seems simple" I replied.
Tsubaki then walked towards the end and showed me what the customers could put on their yogurt.
"Strawberries, slices of banana, granola, chocolate and much more! You'd be surprised what our customers have been eating"
I chuckled a bit but then stopped.
"So, is Maka done yet with taking out the trash?" I asked.
Tsubaki instantly turned red.
"W-Well, s-she might" she stuttered.
I raised a brow as I crossed my arms.
"Tell me Tsubaki. Where is Maka?" I said curiously. Tsubaki turned her head both in the right and left direction. Then she sighed as she looked down a bit.
"Well.. I'm gonna be honest. Maka doesn't want to see you at the moment. She's in a very embarrassing situation. I really don't think it'll be a good idea if you see her" she stated.
I sighed a bit and then walked closer to Tsubaki.
"Come on. It can't be that bad right? Just show me where she is. I promise I won't laugh"
Maka's POV
"Free yogurt on Wensdays! Everybody who's a fan of yogurt should come by to Life's Yogurt!" I exclaimed as I waved coupons in the air.
I saw a car walking by and they hocked four times.
Immediately I felt my face heat up. This was the most embarrassing thing ever! Especially since Soul's around..
"Ugh. I sometimes hate this job. Is eight dollars per hour really worth it?" I mumbled to myself.
"Depends on the hour, right?"
I jumped a bit after that. I knew that voice and I really didn't want to see him! So I slowly turned around as I had my eyes closed. Then I peeked a bit.
"Bookworm. Are you that embarrassed?" Soul asked.
I opened an eye as I nodded slowly.
Soul frowned and then looked down.
"I'm sorry" he started.
Then, out of nowhere, Soul instantly perked up!
He started laughing like a maniac!
"Sorry for laughing! Pfft! Maka your too funny! You're embarrassed because of a yogurt costume?!" Soul said as he started holding his stomach as he laughed.
I felt a tear of sweat from the back of my head. This was too awkward. You see, when you were the yogurt costume, you look like a white yogurt with a purple bottom but instead of having a friendly face, it had mine.
Then, I heard a sheepishly chuckle.
"Yeah..sorry about that Maka! He really wanted to see you!" she paused and then put her right hand on her cheek. "He even promised he wouldn't laugh.."
I frowned "It's not your fault Tsubaki! I should've mentioned that Soul is a total liar!" I stated harshly.
Meanwhile Soul kept laughing his head off.
So I huffed as I blow out a bang. Then I got my dictionary from my "secret place"
"MAKA-CHOP!" I yelled as I crashed my book slamming down on Soul's head.
Next thing I knew, he was as silent as ever..
Tsubaki's POV
Poor Soul and Maka! Oh but he did deserve that! But she shouldn't have been that mean! Well at least they're happy...but wait, wasn't our boss.
"Hey Maka" I said breaking the silence between us. We were still outside except Maka was now yelling out about our shop.
"What Tsubaki?" she asked as she turned to face me.
I gulped as I went up to her.
"Remember when our boss had to leave for a month so he left us in charge?" I asked.
Maka nodded as she seemed oblivious to the situation.
"And do you remember who it was?"
Maka nodded again.
"It was Lord Death-" Maka stopped.
Her eyes went wide and she let go of two coupons.
"Oh no" she started as she went around in circles.
I raised a brow a bit because I really shouldn't have done that.
I mean, Lord Death probably knows about their breakup. That doesn't mean he'll fire him if he's good at this job.
"Maka calm down! It's not really a big deal! After all, it's Lord Death we're talking about! Lord Death will be cool about this, right?" I said trying to reassure Maka who was shaking her head.
"Tsubaki you don't understand" she started.
I tilted my head to a side after she said that.
"How come?"
Maka then looked my in the eyes, dead serious.
"Kid told me that he was gonna be just like his dad. He said that he would start going to check the store here. That means, Lord Death is not the boss of this place anymore. It's Kid" she stated.
My eyes went wide then.
"Oh...crap"
I will be updating for my stories today! I'm sorry I've been gone for so long! I'll never leave here though! Hope you liked this chapter! P.S, I might do 8-16 chapters left! No worries :)
