I woke up and kokichi was gone once again. My metaphorical blood ran cold and I immediately shot out of bed to begin looking for him.
The first place I looked was the dining hall and...there he was, laying on the table drinking a panta "o-ouma-kun!" He glared at me "ah- right you prefer I call you kokichi....either way what are you doing out of your room!" He poured more panta in his mouth before answering "I got thirsty and I'm not sick anymore" he said simply "huh? B-but-" "hush! I'm completely 100% better and that's that" I looked down at my feet as I thought to myself. Completely better?already? That can't be....can it? "I need a sample of your saliva" he looked repulsed, being so caught off guard that he poured a small amount of soda on his face and choked on the soda he already had in his mouth
"kokichi! Are you okay?" I asked as I rushed forwards. He coughed for a few moments before nodding "I'm fine I'm fine but could you at least warn me before saying weird stuff like that!" I paused. I suppose I did phrase it strangely but...how else was I supposed to say it?? "Anyway....why do you need my spit?" "I will analyze it and will see if you're truely better or not"
kokichi wiped off his face (staining his white clothes which bothered me immensely) and let what I said process. Suddenly he perked up "oh! If you wanted a kiss you could've just asked!" My face immediately turned red. "A-a kiss!? I-i didn't say-" before I could even finish my sentence he kissed me.
On. The. Lips.
I- I don't even- I cant- why- what the- WHAT. IS. HAPPENING
"mwah! How's that for a kiss kiiboy?" I wimpered as I hid my face in my hands "k-kokichi!" "You want another kiss?" I shook my head "N-no I got the sample I needed I'll analyze it now" I tried to analyze the sample I got however I couldn't process the information....in other words I couldn't think straight. Kokichi suddenly grabbed my cheeks "wow...you're so red! You know...you don't gotta be so flustered since we're together and stuff" I looked down as I pressed my fingers together nervously "I can't help it! I'm....not used to being kissed" I muttered "was that your first?" "Mhm" kokichi giggled "that makes sense...after all" suddenly his expression flattened "who would want to kiss someone like you?"
I suddenly felt extremely hurt. I know this is typical for kokichi but I had gotten used to him being nice to me over the past few weeks "....what? Kokichi i-i thought you-" "The answer was me!" He quickly clarified "I would gladly kiss you" I showed him a shakey smile. He seriously worried me for a moment....but that was just a lie....right?
.....
I don't feel very well....
"Kiibo!" I jolted at his voice "Eh- s-sorry uh...what do you need?" "You still didn't tell me if I was sick or not" for a second I didn't know what he was talking about but I remembered "g-gracious! You're right" I can't believe I forgot....
I analysed the sample I got and...
I can't believe it! No sign of the disease whatsoever! This disease is....very strange isn't it....to just disappear out of nowhere like that....
".....so?" I sighed "I...couldn't find anything related to the disease" he looked at me with a smirk and poked my chest teasingly "told you! you just didn't believe me!"
I stared down at my feet. That can't be true! P-perhaps I analyzed it wrong or.....it's clear i'm searching for excuses.....he doesn't need me to be a nurse for him anymore....he doesn't need *me* anymore
Gracious....i....dont know what I'm supposed to do with myself now....after allowing a human come to harm my only purpose was to nurse kokichi back to health....but....he....isnt sick anymore so what am I supposed to do with myself....
"something wrong kiiboy? Why are you making that face?" "Now that you're healthy I...have no purpose" he looked down a bit before suddenly he dramatically fell on the floor "ah! Kokichi! What's the matter" he let out a whine "I-i think I'm sick again" he said before letting out a few coughs. Sick again? already? How unusual....or maybe not? Do humans really get sick that easily? "What could've gotten you sick?" "It doesn't matter....i'm dieing....life force....fadeing....oh kiiboy won't you take care of me?" D-DIEING!? Gosh I need to hurry! "I-I'll try my very best kokichi!"
I picked him up off of the floor and rushed him to his room then I set him back in his bed. He giggled softly before coughing and seeming miserable "kiibo...i'm so glad I have you..." He said with a shakey smile "we should start calling you the ultimate nurse!" I let in a sharp breath. Although the title wasn't official it made me feel so happy. It made me feel like I was more than just a robot. "U-ultimate nurse....thats way better than being the ultimate robot I mean....thats like if one of you was the ultimate human! How can I be the best at existing! It's not like I built myself or anything!" Ah there I go again, going on a rant about my talent "I'm sorry....you probably didn't want to hear my rant did you....my talent is a bit of a touchy subject for me"
He seemed displeased by my words. Did I say something wrong? "I see your talent as a good thing kiiboy. I mean....you can't get sick, you can't feel pain, you don't have to sleep....it sounds awesome!" "I also can't taste anything, need to be charged and I also can't cry! I want salty stuff to come out of my eyes when I'm sad too!" I sighed "you all have such amazing talents, you can do so many great things and I'm just....a robot" I could see kokichi was struggling to lift my spirits if anything he made me feel worse about it "....whatever....either way you'll still be my ultimate nurse" he said as he wrapped his arms around me and snuggled up to me....i imagine that wouldn't be very comfortable since the armor I'm wearing is made of metal....wouldn't be like hugging a metal pillar?
".... I appreciate it kokichi"
He paused before quickly changing the subject "kiiboy! Could you go get my panta I think I left it in the dining hall" I gave a small nod "o-of course I'll be right back"
Kokichi is definitely faking his sickness....
don't get me wrong I'm not angry or anything- the exact opposite in fact! I appreciate him faking his sickness to give me a purpose.....
Perhaps my purpose is to play pretend with him instead
