The Adventures of Megumi and Toji

Carta

The kids were sitting on Megumi's door step just hanging out outside. Toji pulled up in his cardboard mobile as he had just came home from work. He hopped out the vehicle with the biggest smile on his face.

"Megumi!"

"Yea what's up dad?"

"I struck gold today!" Toji lifted up a purse and set it on the counter.

"You mean you robbed a poor old lady?"

"No! She wasn't old."

"That doesn't make it any better."

Toji rolled his eyes. "Anyways, she was rich, not poor. Look at this bag! It's hot pink and real leather I bet this thing cost a fourtune. Not what I was looking for though, when I opened the bag she literally had 5 dollars in there. I'm so lucky! This will help pay for a month's rent."

Megumi raised his eyebrow as he examined the purse. "Lemme guess, you went to the nail salon and stole it?"

"Yea! Some lady had these big sunglasses on and wasn't paying attention when she was getting her nails done."

Megumi narrowed his eyes in confusion. "How did you manage to steal that stuff undetected?"

"My rats, I just let my rats loose through the vents and they started invading the store and scared everyone off."

"You know, why do you always go for the easy steals Mr. Fushiguro?" Nobara asked.

"Huh? What do you mean easy?...Wait, what is Nobara doing here!?" Toji folded his arms, reminiscing about the time Nobara basically poisoned him with nuts.

Megumi shrugged. "You said she's not allowed inside the house, she's only outside."

Toji blinked in disbelief. "Wow, anyways, what do you mean easy?"

"Like you make sure everyone's gone. What are you a pussy?" Nobara retorted.

"EXCUSE YOU?! I HAVE LIKE 50 FELONIES ON MY RECORD! I AM ALSO ON PROBATION FOR KILLING A MAN FOR TOUCHING MY RAMEN!"

"Yet you won't rob a purse off someone's body." She stood up and approached Toji. "I bet you 70$ you can't successfully rob a woman's purse off her body."

"Oh you really wanna go there little girl? I could do that easy peasy!"

"Then go do it."

"Now?"

"Yea. I can't wait to see your ass get beat." She smirked at the thought of seeing his ass beat for the 1000th time.

"Nahh, I'm not gonna let some girl beat me."

"Didn't I give you stitches the other day?"

"Pfft! Well- uh- th- that's only cause you caught me off guard...bitch." He whispered the last word to himself just in case she had a bat on standby.

"How does a little girl catch you off guard?" She asked.

"How about you stop asking questions and let a man do his job."

"Alright fine then, if you get your ass beat I'm taking a picture and having it painted in your driveway so you can see it everyday when you come home from your minimum lame ass job."

Yuji tilted his head at her words. "Don't you mean minimum wage lame ass job?"

"His pay is so low, you can't even call it a wage. It's just minimum at this point."

Toji frowned as her explanation reminded him of the two half Pennie's in his t-shirt fanny pack that the dust bunnies were probably feasting on right about now. "Yeaaah. She's right...but there WON'T be a picture there. Cause' I'm gonna win!"

"Good luck, you're gonna need it."

"Hmph!" He turned around and thought to himself. I know just the right person for this job!
