Chapter 40: Bonus Chapter 1 - Operation: Mijo's Prince!
Previous Chapter Next ChapterOperation: Mijo's Prince!
A destined person and the perfect love... That is what Mijo is looking for.
"Even though Mijo is already 17... This is bad..." Mijo uttered, "THIS IS NOT THE TIME TO ENJOY PLAYING CARDS IN THIS SORT OF PLACE LIKE I ALWAYS DO!"
Indeed, Mijo was once again playing cards in McDonalds. Along with her was her older brother Neon, Spark, Knock Out and Lone Wolf. The younger sister planted her head on the table in hopelessness.
"Why? Isn't this super fun, you commoner?" Spark said as he drew a card from the deck.
"If it's not related to games, I don't understand a commoner's feelings at all." Knock Out added.
"What Mijo wants to know is who my destined person is!" Mijo whined.
"A perfect love? That would be a harem. A harem!" Knock Out said.
"I just wait to chase one girl to the ends of the earth," Spark added, "And if that woman is a mature widow, there's nothing more to be said."
"Who cares what you guys thing about romance!" Mijo exclaimed as she stood up and slammed her fist on the table, "Mijo wants... MIJO WANTS A RED STRING OF FATE!"
"Mijo." Neon called out.
Mijo immediately froze and shiver in fear. She slowly turned to where her brother was. Neon was reading a book and was fixated to it; not even wasting his energy to look up and glare at Mijo.
"Mijo. I'm going to hit you." Neon expressed in a cold tone.
"W-Why only Mijo?!" Mijo shrieked.
"Oh sweet! The girl replied!" Spark exclaimed in delight while he was looking at his phone.
On cue, the boys stood up and packed up their things. Mijo looked on in confusion as the boys started to depart.
"Well, see ya Mijo! We're going to have a meet up with some pretty birds from CHS!" Knock Out said in glee, "Go home before your brother kills you."
The boys soon disappeared from Mijo's sight, leaving her and a few uneaten burgers. She began to stomp both of her feet on the ground and left the establishment as well. As she got outside, the boys were nowhere to be found, so Mijo decided to head on home.
"What was that?! Everyone always excludes Mijo! Even though brother is smart, he's only been chasing skirts!" Mijo whined once more, "When I get home, I'm telling on him!"
As a child, Neon was the attention of the family. At a young age, Neon displayed remarkable talents and intelligence, which pretty much gave him the attention he had. Mijo on the other hand, was "average", but she wanted the attention as well.
Mijo thought this was the reason why Neon never worked hard before. She thought that he didn't understand what true love is.
"Hmmph, Mijo is going to meet a much better person and have an incredible romance! Just like how Miss Rarity and Sir Clyde has!" Mijo exclaimed to herself as the people around her stared at her, "That's right, Mijo believes in the red string of fate! That is definitely something sacred and irreplaceable!"
From that statement, Mijo recalled a scene from the past. A scene between Gaige and Flash, smiling at each other. Sure enough, Mijo hated Gaige since she thought she didn't fit Flash, but after realizing the love between them, she realized that she wasn't jealous of Gaige... But was jealous of the love they felt for each other.
Even though there is a countless number of people in this world, you only fall inlove with a single person.
"If Mijo can meet that person, I'll definitely treasure him!" Mijo exclaimed proudly, "The problem is who it is! Just where is he?! He has to be taller and richer than Mijo... That's right! The first thing is his face; he has to be very good looking! More importantly, he has to be better looking than brother."
As she babbled her mouth and day dreamed, Mijo did not seem to be looking at where she was going, and more importantly the boy with blue hair infront of her. Mijo suddenly bumped the boy and dropped the box of sweets and its contents he was holding.
"O-Oh! I'm very sorry! I was thinking too hard and- Wait, you're picking those up?" Mijo asked as she watched the boy pick up the chocolates from the ground and putting them back in the box.
"No, it's fine. Don't mind me," The boy said as he turned to Mijo, revealing it to be Blaze Sentry, the older brother of Flash Sentry, "I was thinking too hard as well, I was obsessing over my-"
In Mijo's perspective, feathers began to fall from the sky. Her whole world sparkled and turned slow motion as she was mesmerized by Blaze's eyes. Her whole chest began to accelerate as she covered her blushing face. Needless to say, she has found her prince.
The next day at Blaze's apartment, Curtis blankly sat infront of a table staring at a piece of cake that was served to him. On the other side of the table was Blaze and the whole cake, which he was stuffing into his mouth rapidly.
"...Eh? What's this?" Curtis asked.
"Dish ish todaysh shnack." Blaze said while still having food in his mouth.
"I see."
"Today, the most sold out item was the 'Super Duper Fluppy Mille Crepe'. This cake was created on site by a patisserie that studied in France, so it goes without saying that his skills are impeccable," Blaze explained, "This may look ordinary, but it's a treasure trove of wonders. And when you take a bite-"
"I REALLY DON'T CARE!" Curtis exclaimed while he stabbed his cake with a fork, "What the hell is going on?! If I remember correctly, this was supposed to be my day off!"
"My, Mr. Curtis! Are you the kind that feels off back layer when you eat a crepe?" Blaze laughed, "You brute!"
"If you didn't know, I'm the kind of guy that enjoys special ALONE time! Didn't you have atleast one girl you could have invited?!" Curtis continued as he started to eat his piece of cake.
"If I did, I wouldn't be here with you."
"SAME GOES TO YOU!"
"Well, please don't get so angry. I called you here because I had to talk to you about."
Hearing what Blaze said, Curtis's expression turned to curiosity.
"Something?" Curtis asked.
"Actually, yesterday, the young girl from the Lights family..." Blaze stopped talking as he gulped, "...P-Proposed for us to go on a date as a prerequisite to marriage..."
Curtis stared at Blaze for a while until he stood up and started to leave.
"Then please excuse me today." Curtis said while fixing his tie.
"Please wait a moment!" Blaze said in a calm tone, "It's not easy to find another job in this kind of economy!"
"You can ask your mother about that kind of thing instead, can't you?!" Curtis exclaimed.
"Well, I called her about it."
*****
"Hey Mom, my heart won't stop fluttering. Is this what they call love?"
"Sorry honey, I'm busy working right now. Love ya, bye!"
*****
"Well, she hung up due to a very excusable reason," Blaze added as he took another bite of his foot while Curtis performed a facepalm, "But regardless, she'll become my fiancee. For a marriage, I want someone who would bring in profit. But this is the first time I've been called out by a girl like this!"
"Well, that's because you generally don't approach girls!" Curtis said as he took out his cigars and started to smoke.
"By the way, can you follow me on a date after this?"
Blaze let out a goofy smile as Curtis raised a brow at him. This went on for a minute until Curtis's eye started to twitch.
"HUH?! WHAT ARE YOU SAYING? NO WAY! HOW PREPOSTEROUS!" The irritated Curtis exclaimed while Blaze grabbed him by the arm.
"PLEASE! I HONESTLY DON'T BELIEVE I CAN BE WITH A GIRL ALONE!" Blaze shouted back in desperation, "HONESTLY! WHY DID SHE ASK ME OUT?! Girls are snakes... I don't want to be played! I don't want to get hurt, but I don't want to lose this chance either!"
"YOU'RE TOO COMPLICATED!"
Curtis saw in Blaze's eyes how desperate he was. However, he didn't care. He just wanted to leave and take his leave. But, a sudden realization popped into his head: If Blaze got himself a girlfriend, Curtis would be released from the infinite sweets he eats every single day for the rest of his life.
With that said, Curtis let out a sly smile and placed his hand on Blaze's shoulder.
"Master Blaze... It will be fine! Let's go!" Curtis smiled with a thumbs up, "She'll fall inlove with you!"
"R-Really?!" Blaze said in excitement.
"well, I thought the young lady was acting a bit strange a while before... When she was looking at you, her eyes were sparkling!"
"Huh?! Stop it Curtis! I-I do have it thought, right?"
"Yes! You beautiful scumbag! SO CHIN UP!"
Sometime later, Curtis and Blaze made their way downtown and picked a simple restaurant to take the date. They picked an outdoor table and waited for the girl to arrive. Blaze sat nervously while Curtis still had his sly smile on his face. For the perverted butler, it was a great day to live for it was the day he might be free from the sweet grasp of Blaze.
After a while, Mijo finally arrived, in which Blaze started to become uncomfortable and nervous. She had her hair done and had make up on her face. She wore a striped t shirt, pearl necklace, black skirt and high heels.
"Sir Blaze!" Mijo exclaimed in glee.
"Hello! Sorry to keep you waiting!" Curtis smiled, "I've reserved this good place just for you two love birds!"
"For now... A friendly smile..." Blaze thought to himself.
Blaze pulled one of the chairs and offered it to Mijo, which she gladly sat on. He then sat across her as Curtis stood between them with a big smile (The reason being Blaze finally getting a girlfriend and because of Mijo's presence. You know, since he's perverted).
Mijo looked around and saw how extravagant the restaurant that they picked while Curtis went ahead and brought tea to the table.
"Oh my! Such a quaint place you prepared!" Mijo smiled.
"No, it was no trouble at all! I couldn't bear to insult Doctor Light's daughter!" Curtis replied while he poured tea to Mijo's cup, "Master Blaze likes Mijo's enthusiasm!"
"Oh my!"
"Now tell me, what part did you like about Master Blaze?"
Blaze's face immediately turned red and his chest started to beat heavily. He was surprised of how direct Curtis was and wanted to punch him for it.
"HIS FACE!" Mijo exclaimed in delight while her expression startled to sparkle, "I actually liked Sir Flash's manlier face, but since he's dating Gaige... BUT I LOVE SIR BLAZE'S AS WELL!"
Blaze froze with a smile on his face. Curtis wondered what was going on until Blaze fell off his seat and went face first on the ground, who then started to breath heavily and nervously.
"Blaze! Hold yourself together!" Curtis whispered as he went ahead and help Blaze up, "This is where you need to stand firm! Isn't she an honest and decent young lady?! It's a bargain that she's letting you be the replacement, right?"
"I-Is that so?" Blaze whispered.
Curtis stood back up and looked at Mijo.
"Sorry, this person has an awful complex. That was slightly heavy-handed, please be gentler." Curtis said to her.
"Hm? Understood." Mijo replied while Blaze slowly got back to his chair.
Blaze took a deep breath and started to relax a little. He got his smile back and tried to be more calm. Though, he seemed happy that Mijo thought of him as Flash's replacement. He looked at Mijo once again, who was blushing with a warm smile.
"But... After I get married, I want to understand and support my husband... Since my mother was like that," Mijo explained while she started fidgeting with her hands, "I want to have a loud and warm family."
"I feel the same way... That too is my dream." Blaze smiled.
Mijo's heart started to sped up.
"Mijo, what are your hobbies?" Blaze asked while still having a smile.
"Um... I like comedy shows... And I like listening to EDM's..." Mijo said nervously, still having no idea why her heart started to pound abnormally, "Um... What about you?"
"Well, it's a bit common, but I enjoy reading. Recently I've been collecting flags from my travels."
While the two chatted, Curtis let out a sigh of relief and left the two alone after seeing how it was going fine. He took out his box of cigars and walked towards his limo. He lit a stick and started to smoke while watching Blaze and Mijo from the distance.
Curtis could finally relax from all the shenanigans he just went through. He looked to his right and to his surprise, he saw Neon passing by, who was using his phone.
"My my, if it isn't Doctor Light's eldest!" Curtis called out, earning the attention of Neon.
"Oh, the guy from Flash's family. Hello." Neon replied back.
"Hello hello! Blaze's father was in your care for a while back," Curtis chuckled, "Are you going out?"
"Yeah mate, I'm meeting up with someone at a cafe called 'Sugarcube Corner'." Neon answered while he wondered where Blaze was.
Neon continued to look around. His eyes soon caught a glimpse of his sister nearby. From the distance, he saw Blaze and Mijo both being awkward to each other.
"Oi... What's that?" Neon asked in surprise, "Am I looking what seems to be the older Brad and my little sister together?"
"Eh? What are you talking about?" Curtis asked.
"Is that a date?!"
"Apparently it's a date before an engagement..." Curtis explained as Neon was shocked by this, "She is such an aggressive young girl."
Meanwhile, Mijo started to be consumed by the power of love. High noon tea, a popular heart-pounding song playing inside the restaurant, and a descending black winged desire was around her. The girl and Blaze remained silent after Curtis left the two. While having a fake smile, Blaze was panicking on the inside while thinking of a way to stop the dead silence.
"U-Um... Sir Blaze..." Mijo spoke out while her whole face turned red, "Please with Mijo, propose an engagement-"
Suddenly, a hard knock hit Mijo on the head. She turned to her back and saw a furious Neon behind her while Blaze tended to his beating chest.
"ARE YOU AN IDIOT?!" Neon exclaimed.
"B-BROTHER?!" Mijo cried.
Neon clenched his fist and glared at Mijo, who started to become afraid of her older brother. Neon then turned his attention on Blaze, who seemingly calmed down.
"What's wrong Neon? Why are you so worked up?" Blaze smiled, "Interfering with someone's romance is such a boorish thing to do."
"Excuse me but... Can you stop making moves on my sister?" Neon said while he facepalmed, "Even without my sister, you have heaps of women to play around with, don't you?"
"Don't say that I'm playing around! I'm seriously thinking through this!"
Having enough of it, Neon grabbed Mijo's arm and pulled her away.
"Enough. Let's go Mijo." Neon said while Mijo struggled.
"B-Brother?!" Mijo exclaimed.
"I'm putting the money here," Neon said as he placed a few bucks on the table while glaring at Blaze, "Even though she's like this, she's my sister so... I won't allow you to do anything irresponsible to her."
The two siblings then disappeared and left Blaze alone at the table, who was still dumbfounded on what just happened.
Neon dragged his sister through the dozens of crowds on the sidewalk. Mijo pleaded to Neon for her to be released and go back, but the brother never listened. She soon yanked her hand off from his grasp and swatted his hand.
"Enough! Why did you interfere?!" Mijo cried furiously," We were getting along so well!"
"Wanker... That person wouldn't consider the likes of you." Neon explained.
Again? All the time! All the time, he thinks of Mijo as an idiot!
"That's not true! Sir Blaze is Mijo's destined person!" Mijo exclaimed while tears came out of her eyes.
Neon raised a brow and glared at Mijo once more.
"Didn't you say that to Flash before? Did you really like him then? You look at their face, wether it's your ideal or not... Just their appearances," Neon said in a serious tone, "Who'd fall for someone like you?"
Digesting everything that her brother said, Mijo came to a realization that he was right. However, she was still angry at how Neon interrupted her date with Blaze. She soon dashed away while looking back at Neon.
"Im... I'M TELLING MOTHER YOU WERE LOOKING AT PICTURES OF PIGTAILS LAST NIGHT!" Mijo exclaimed as she dashed away, leaving Neon panicking.
Mijo sat on the bench at the park (Where everyone seems to sit for some reason) and cried her sorrows out. She took out her handkerchief and wiped the tears from her eyes.
"He's so mean! Why won't brother acknowledge Mijo?" Mijo hiccuped, "Mijo just wants to find a perfect love! What is it?! I didn't want brother to ask me whether I really liked them or not! Even though he plays around with women all the time!"
Mijo stopped crying and thought about what her brother said once more. She thought that maybe Neon had someone he liked, but the person isn't by his side at the moment. Mijo had never thought of that before and only saw her brother as an obstacle.
"Mijo believes in the red string of fate. When we meet, it will be love at first sight, and we will complement each other in every single day. The world is so big. There has to be someone that is like that,"" She said to herself once again, "But I know that they'll be very difficult to find... So if we somehow meet, it'd be a miracle."
Unknown to her, the likes of Spark, Knock Out and Lone Wolf were walking towards her with smiles on their faces.
"Oh, she's here!" Lone exclaimed while he took out his phone and contacted Neon.
"What are you doing? You're such a stupid little sister!" Knock Out joked.
"WHAT?! YOU GUYS?! I DIDN'T CALL YOU GUYS!" Mijo exclaimed.
"When we heard you ran off crying after being rejected by a guy, we had to come find you." Spark explained.
"I WASN'T REJECTED!"
"The day Brad and the Empress became a couple, you came here right? You cried like a baby."
Mijo sighed as she placed her hand on her chin. All she wanted was to create destiny with a fated person. All she wanted was a person she loves as her destined one.
"Hey commoners, will Mijo find someone to love?" Mijo asked the three boys.
"Who knows?" Lone answered.
"Dunno." Spark answered.
"More like, who cares?" Knock Out added.
"...As snappy as always..." Mijo whispered.
From the distance, Mijo saw Neon coming towards them. Before she could react, she noticed Neon's concerned look towards her as he got near them.
"Mijo, let's go home." Neon called out.
"BROTHER! You came to pick Mijo up?" Miho exclaimed in surprise.
"We came too, are you forgetting about that?" The three boys said in unison.
Neon sighed as he nodded and started walking. The three boys led the way while the two siblings followed from behind. Before anything else, Neon turned to Mijo with a serious look.
"Mijo, you should give up on Blaze." He said to her.
"No way, Blaze is amazing!" Mijo pouted.
"You... If you're a girl, you should go out with someone who likes you more than they like themselves."
"That... Sounds like you're talking about Sir Flash, right?" Mijo asked, annoying Neon, "So what should men aspire for?"
Neon let out his annoyance as he remembered something in the past. He let out a warm smile as he remembered the person that made he fell inlove with.
"That's most likely... Making the girl he likes happy, don't you think?" Neon smiled.
Mijo simply looked at Neon. Somehow, she felt happy seeing him smile.
I don't know who brother fell inlove with but, one day he will fall inlove again... Since humans are beings that love. And when he does find someone he likes very much, this time please make it so that she loves brother back!
Since he's... Mijo's brother... Mijo want's that sort of love too.
"Both of us should do our best, right brother?" Mijo smiled to Neon.
"Huh?"
There should definitely be someone out there.
