12: The calabash

☆

Today you were on delivery duty, it's been a while since you last used the scooter for other than personal use. What you definitely did not miss were Karen's. The one you were currently delivering noodles to being one. They were complaining about something, they lost you halfway through their little rant. "If you have a complaint, please use our website to come in contact with my superior" you said, not really wanting to listen again. "I will let you know that I will you little hooligan" her insult was more funny than actually insulting 'Hooligan huh?' While you were close to having your villain ark in the middle of some street, she had slammed the door in your face. 'Rude much' Thinking was not going to deliver the last noodles by themselves. Hopping on your scooter you continue you're not so marry way, to the next person. Upon arrival you got Deja vu or something. It was like you had been there before, it turned out that the nice gray-haired lady had ordered again. You noticed while giving formalities that her place looked packed up. "Why all the boxes?" you asked, she smiled at you before replying, "Well i will be moving soon dear, so I'm just packing up what i had" That's nice, it's never too late for a change of pace. "Alright then have a nice day" Giving a wave to the kind woman, you head back to you scooter and its loaded trunk of noodles. The drive was nice and long, you were lucky to have drove just before rush hour in the city. There was still traffic here and there but nothing that would hinder your way of delivering noodles on time. Driving always gave you time to think about life, especially when you weren't the driver. Something about looking out to the world and taking in the surroundings were so peaceful. At the nice pace you were going in, you might be able to deliver some extra noodles, take some workload off Mk. The poor boy always biting off more than he could chew. "Here is you noodles sir!" you would say and then on with the next order. Working did not give time to think about silly stuff, like the fact that two literally magic monkeys were fighting, and both did not want you hanging out with the other. You had not heard monkey king say it directly, but I think we all know he would not like it. You were hoping that kiss was not a onetime thing, because else it would become awkward quick. Life had been going like breeze and you were pretty sure you had not reached to episode 5 yet. That means there is still 5 episodes before macaque gets introduced. You were running low on noodle orders, and soon had to get back to Pigsy and get more. You made a few turns here and there just slowly but surely getting to Pigsy's noodles. The city being as colorful as ever, it was kind of weird thinking back to when you first came here. Then again it was a memory you never wanted to forget; you could not remember what method you used but it had worked and now you were here. In front of a noodle store not having to worry about doing too much math and other stuff. You only really had to put everything in a machine then it solves it for you. "Hey Pigsy, got done faster than i thought do you have some more noodles?" you asked, he looked away from his broth for a moment so he could talk. "I actually do, that kid Mk has ran off again, what am i supposed to do with him" Mk disappearing, normal weekday stuff. "Okay let me take some of his orders then" you said, taking the still building up pile of noodles. "Thanks kid, glad someone does something around here" He was not looking at you this time but at his noodle's "thief", that had tried to get free noodles again while you guys were talking. "Tang that was my lunch!" Pigsy yelled, he looked like he was about to throw his spoon at the man, if it were not for the fact, he was busy with his broth. "Okay I'll get going see ya" speeding out the door with the noodles, you begin to pack them in your scooter. Today's workday might be a little longer than you thought now that you got double orders. The rest of orders kind of went like a blur, nothing much to add to the workday. However, when you got home to the shop, you were exhausted. Pigsy gave you some noodles because of the good work, and of course they were delicious. Now here you were slurping some hot noodles, together with Tang, Mei and Pigsy. The sun had begun to set, and suddenly you could hear a voice yelling, though it was kind of faint. Through the door comes a rather distressed Mk, "Omg PIGSY" he yells jumping onto the male. "Wait is it really you?" he asked. Pinching and poking at pig, what's with him today. Why do you continue to get Deja vu all the time, never mind that. Pigsy of course yelled at him for acting weird. " what's wrong with you kid?" Pigsy asked. Scratching his neck, he begins trying to explain "Nothing it's just...." he then looks back up at you guys. "I'm just glad you guys aren't perfect" ending his sentence. 'No way he just said that I covered his shift as well as mine' everyone seemed just as offended as you on that statement. "I just covered your shift Mk, and you say I'm not perfect? Next time you are on your own" crossing your arms at his really poorly comment. What a way to end the day off, by not being perfect. Well, the workday, you still had a few things to do. First you had to write an email because you had not really heard from him. Then you had to just chill and find something to do, laying in your bed the rest of the day will be boring.

Hmmmmmmmmm.........

"Hey Mei, wanna go to the arcade?" You ask, making the girl stop her rant about being perfect. "Sure (Y/N)" she responded giving a thump up. "Which one should we go to" pondering on the question you had asked out loud. Mei looked like she got sparkles in her eyes, "I KNOW THE PERFECT PLACE, they just opened the anti-gravity arcade again!" Smiling she instantly found a photo on her phone showing the arcade. "Good thing they opened up again" you said, if it would have been permanently closed because of Mk that would have been sad. "Then let's go!" you exclaimed, pumping a fist in the air. "Alright! You wanna take your scooter or just ride with me on the motorcycle?" she asked. The answer was easy, breaking the sound barrier is something you always wanted to try. "I'm going to hop on your vehicle for today, that way you won't have to wait for me" Heading out with Mei, you take your helmet from the scooter, so you could ride on Mei's motorcycle. "OMG, (y/n), they got cheese tea on sale we should totally go there!" Mei half yelled, you just nodded excitedly at that. You quickly hopped on, holding around her waist so you wouldn't fall off. You were originally over exaggerating how fast her motorcycle was, it really was not one now. You were this close to just falling off if you had not held on to her. The good part about it though is that you were almost already there. Now that you think about it, you had grown quite stronger after coming here, maybe it was the work that did it? Oh well not to worry about it now, right now all you needed to do was hang out with Mei in that sweet arcade. "Let's go (Y/n) if you don't get a move on then I am going to beat all the high scores without you!" oh it was on, getting off you quickly go after her, all the games you were going to play, you could not wait.

A/n Fun fact about this is, i made some of this during a math "exam" and my class mate found me searching for cheese tea and no thinks thats everything i do in my free time XD anyways its a bit shorter chaptor but it is mainly a filler so you guys can get more monkey boi content soon :D bye
