Chapter 4:
Right as her phone lights up and vibrates, Emi picks it up, positive that it should be her dearest friend on the other side. "Hello? It that you Chi?" Her friend responds a little too fast. "Yea. Um. I need to ask you for some advice on dating real quick." Emi replies, "I'm right here. Ask me whatever you want." Chi eagerly pleas, "Okay. If I was to like someone, more than a friend that is, how should I tell them?" Yusa offers her knowledge on the subject. "Well, first off I know you are talking about Maou, since I was right beside you two just a little bit ago. And second, have you ever asked someone out on a date before?" Chiho answers shyly, "Actually... no, I haven't yet. All the guys I liked in the past were just too weird around me. They couldn't ever look me in the eyes, if you know what I mean."
Emi mutes the speaker with her hand and laughs at the subtle idea, then sees to it that she help out her friend in need. "Ok. This is what you need to do. Just go up to him and tell him how you feel. I seriously doubt he's picked up on anything you've been sending him this whole time." Chi asks something different of her this time. "So, how will i know if he has the same ideas as I do? I can't believe he'll just fall right into my arms at this rate." Emilia concerning exclaims, "He was never the romantic type to begin with, being the sole leader of a corrupt land in Ente Isla. So yeah, I'm not really sure how he'd react at this point. But don't let his abuse you in any way. If the time comes, I want you to come to me so I can protect you. I wish you the best of luck!" Once Chi hears Justina's words of wisdom, she hangs up and runs back, ready to finally confess the way she feels to Sadao.
When she returns, Sadao is furious for how long he had to wait again. "Geez. Did you get lost on your way back or something? You must've take ages talking on the phone!" Before he gets the chance to speak, Chi presses her finger to his lips, silencing him temporarily. "Look. I really like you and if you ever thought for a minute on what i was intending, you probably wouldn't have brought everyone else along. This was supposed to be a private meeting between the two of us, so that we could have our first date."
Shocked by her honest expression, Sadao opens his mouth to respond, but sees Chi shaking her head and scooting closer so they are facing each other. "Now, I'm going to tell you all you did wrong so far, then you are going to improve so we can become a proper couple." Forgetting her wordless instruction, Sadao whispers, "us... a proper couple?" Not taking her eyes off him, Chiho adds, "To start things off, you should have realized that asking you to come here meant that I like you more than you probably imagined, and that this get together was an offering of love, not an indifferent business deal or a friendly reunion.
Breaking away from her gaze, Satan jokes darkly about her methods. "If I were someone else I know, I'd say you were my mother instead of a full-blown lover! Do you treat everyone this way?" Angrily, Chi approaches him and yells, "would you rather I'd be her, you sicko!? I'm only trying to help you here!" Still not listening fully to what she has to say, Satan adds, "Are you going to make sure i finish my chores too mom?" Infuriated, Chiho gestures the sign to fuck off, but takes it all back in one movement. Trying hard to forget what he just spat ignorantly back at her, Chi decides to list off more of his problems.
"Also, you should have complimented me on my looks as soon as i came up to your group. The fact that you didn't showed me how insensitive you can be personally. But I wasn't going to give up there. I really do believe you've changed since your newly made arrival in Tokyo. I even tried to make your transition from there as easy as possible." Feeling horrible for what he had just said, Maou turns back toward her direction and wonders aloud, "Is that so?"
As the amount of memories concerning Chi fumbling to show her affections floods his mind, Sadao begins to see how he can fix this. "For one, I think you look beautiful today. In fact, I've never seen you astoundingly dressed in all our time being friends. I deeply appreciate all that you've gone through to represent how you feel about me! I now remember all those times since we've met where you've wanted to tell me this without anyone else catching on to us. I know the exact thing we should do next! We should go to that super fancy Japanese restaurant located near Mgronalds." Confused by the unexpected change of plans, Chiho is still not convinced it will work out. "Don't we need a reservation first? They are not just going to let us walk right in, right?" With the most disturbing grin showing on his face, he tells her, "You just leave that to me sweetheart."
