"What? Master is going to move back here again?" "Uh… just temporarily, it is safer for him…" "Oh! This could be the best thing I have ever heard since these few years! Oh, wait! Does this mean he is not mad with me anymore?" "Uh… He was never actually mad with yo…" "Ah! I have to get everything prepared, his clothes, bed, blanket, plushies…Oh! And sweets!" "Uh… Satoshi…" "Sorry, I don"t have time for this, Master will be coming in at any time…" "Actually…he is in his room already right now." "Oh! I see… What!!!!????"….x.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx.x.xx
"Hey, Ben, am I having some hallucination? I just wake up from my short slumber and I am covered by all these plushies and snacks." " Nope, I saw it too…" "I see… Satoshi!" "Yes, My Lord?" "Clean up this mess at once. It"s annoying me." "Oh… Aww… I will clear this up immediately!" "Wait! Leave some snacks and…that… stuffed kitten…" Hearing Chris"s response, Satoshi laughs out a bit. "Ok, as you wish, My Lord." Then Satoshi leaves the room. "Still the same as always, I see." Said Ben with a sarcastic tone, Chris leered Ben and indicate him to leave his room before he took the kitten plushie and cover himself with a blanket.
Chapter 17 Just a Longer Joke in a Form of Main Chapter.
What happens actually…
While those three (Sky, Ben & Chris) are having that random conversation, Sky noticed that small injury on Chris"s cheek that left by the ghoul and figured it will be quite dangerous for Chris to stay at the hospital alone, while it is also not a good idea for Chris to stay at their own usual house, so Sky decides to let Chris stay at the mansion along with Ben (as Chris"s personal doctor). And then Chris"s butler/servant Satoshi who is totally oblivious of what happened came back, and so we have the above scene. And then, after all the stupid mess, Sky decides to stay there with Chris as well…
Later that night, in the living room, Sky is having some important conversation with Ben.
"Sorry Ben, but I guess you have to stay here for a while as Chris"s private doctor. I can"t afford to let him get hurt anymore, especially after I remembered his real ident.i.ty." "Yes it"s true, but you have to take care of yourself too." "Uh…There isn"t anything of me that should be taking care of right?" " You might be an idiot now… Well, probably will still remain as an idiot. But you are also not anyone that we could afford to get injured of. Or are you telling me you still don"t remember who yourself are despite you have remembered about Chris?" Sky remains silent with this question from Ben. "Alright, never mind, but please show me your right hand." Hearing this, Sky is a bit shock but still remains silent. "You did a perfect job hiding it with your usual bandage, but you can"t hide that scent of blood, especially from a doctor like me." Sky hesitated for a moment, then he slowly opens up the bandage showing a gruesome sight to the doctor.
Sky"s right hand is literally "melted" as if getting corroded by some strong acid. "As I expected. How long has it been like this? And how is it became like this?" "Well, It"s been a while now, I never thought the effect of the last charm would wear off so fast. You sure know who is the only one that can redo the charm, right?" "Hang in there a bit..*took out a small bottle of powder*…this can stop the corrosion temporarily." Ben slowly apply the powder on Sky"s right hand, Sky flinched a bit from the stinging effect of the powder…
Some days later, in the usual house of the duos, living room… "So, tomorrow I"ll be flying to America along with Seito-kun." "What?! How about me?" "You? You will go to school as usual." "No, don"t leave me alo… I mean, it"s dangerous for you to go there without me, bring me along." "Don"t worry, I will be in bigger danger if you are with me instead of Seito." "Ah… How about the Chemistry a.s.signment? The deadline is almost due." "…*smile*…I just submitted it yesterday." "No!!! Chris!!! How could you??!!"…
The next day, Ben"s hospital… "So, what are you doing here? I thought you are having cla.s.s today." Sky slowly took out his chemistry a.s.signment, Ben look at Sky speechlessly…
