Chapter 47: SYRUP & US

"Kyo," I tilted my head and asked further "I want to know something."

"Yeah, what is it?" he said while walking down the hallway towards the kitchen.

"Are you…" I thought about it twice and felt like I shouldn't ask it.

"Ah. No forget it" I shook my head and continued walking.

He suddenly stopped in his steps and turned around to stop me.

"What is it?" he was eager to know what I was going to ask.

I sighed and spoke "Okay, don't yell at me later." I shrugged.

"Are you" I began again "..able to see when you laugh?" I pursed my lips to prevent myself from laughing at my own imposed question.

Kyo chuckled and looked down, then walked towards with one of his hands in pocket.

"Make me laugh and I'll let you know whether I can see or not" he stood there waiting for me to make him laugh.

I smirked as I got the perfect idea to make him laugh.

I walked towards Kyo, and raised my hands…

And tried to tickle him…but to no success, he stood there like a statue, no sign of laughter. I pouted at my failure, but then, being an orb I got another full proof idea.

"Kyo-ssi" I tried to imitate Kenma's voice. Kyo instantly cracked up at that. That's Mr. Kyo translated in english, when Kenma calls him out by that title, he always laughs.

Kyo stopped laughing abruptly and gasped "No" he spoke in astonishment, with his eyes widened and his hand covering his mouth in surprise.

"I can't" he gasped at that yet once again, followed by the sound of my laughter, he began laughing too.

We giggled to ourselves while walking down the hall, on our way to the kitchen.

"It's good to have you around." Kyo smiled.

"It's good to be around"

(A few moments later)

"Hey Kyo" I whisper-yelled "Pass me that bowl" He shook his head and Chuckled "Get it yourself, lazy sloth".

I stopped what I was doing and grabbed the chocolate syrup lying in front of me and sneaked up behind Kyo and poured it on his head. I was extremely swift and precise in my series of movements.

"Who's lazy now?" I flicked a finger on his forehead and ran out of the kitchen.

"Get back here you lil piece of turd" Kyo chased me around the sofa with the syrup dripping down his forehead.

"You're gonna pay for that," I had reached a dead-end, he had managed to corner me "come gimme a hug" He was all soiled with chocolate syrup and he wanted to Sully me too.

"Uh-huh" I shook my head "Not happening" I tried to make a run but Kyo caught me and held me tight, he had been carrying that syrup with him which I didn't notice.

"Kyo.." I looked at him with wide eyes "Don't you dare" He gave me a devilish smile and emptied the entire bottle on me.

"KYO!!!!!!" I wriggled my way out of his grip and smacked him in the chest, he wouldn't stop laughing and I couldn't prevent the syrup dripping down from my face.

Just then.

"Hey hyung¹, what are you makin-" Kenma stopped in his tracks, he took in the entire scenario and managed to make out what's going on, switched his eyes between me and Kyo and scoffed. He swiftly looked at me and then Kyo and then ran towards the kitchen to grab another bottle of syrup.

What a kid!

"You're going down suckers" Kenma splashed a bottle towards me and Kyo.

Athletic Kid.

I managed to grab the bowl of flour which was sitting at the corner of the slab and emptied it on Kenma's head

Kyo and I, moments ago enemies against each other, now shared a victorious laugh together.

"You're gonna pay for that" Kenma chased me around the living room while Kyo attacked him with ketchup from behind.

While I was a fast-runner, Kenma was faster, I highly doubted I could escape him.

And as I was plotting on making an escape, I slipped and fell on the floor

"I'm sorrrrrrry"

Fake surrender might help.

"You're so dead" Kenma walked towards me, giggling in an evil manner.

Giggle is such a cute term and action otherwise, how can he convert it to be such devilish one.

He stood over me and looked up at him, he then bent over and held both my hands in on of his while used is other to bring to the forefront, the strawberry syrup.

"I'm already covered in a lot of food, unless you're planning to make a cuisine out me, let me go Kenma." I pleaded him one last time but he just lowered down even further.

"You're already a snack." Before I could respond or react I was drowned in syrup.

"You're mean." He ran away right after and I struggled to get up as I was surrounded by a pool of syrup, excluding the amount of it on me already.

I endeavored to get up and ended up fall all over again, as though I was in a skating-rink and I didn't know how to skate.

While I was continually making an effort to stand, those two, Kenma and Kyo couldn't hold back their laughter at my numerous fail attempts, they were rolling on the floor, their hands around their stomach, the room filled with their loud laughter.

And I did nothing but sigh, before joining in.
