Boboiboy's hand reached for the milk on the shelf. He then examines the milk box before buying it, don't forget to check the expiry date too.

"Haa... do you have to check all the things you want to buy like that...?" Mechabot asked tiredly as he was told to hold the basket.

"Yes Mechabot... now stop complaining and hold the basket properly. You'll drop Ummi's groceries if you hold it like that." Said Boboiboy as he put the milk into the basket. 

"Why do I have to do this maid job! When will Sumorai come back!"  Mechabot yelled out of annoyed. He then correcting his hold on the basket with a lazy expressions. Surprisingly he didn't protest about that. 

Boboiboy then moved to get another item on list. 

"Hmm... where's the flour..?" Boboiboy mumbled to himself as he looked at the items on the shelf.

"Here." Said a voice behind him. Boboiboy then turned to the person, "Oh... thanks Mara." He then reached for flour from Mara.

"Do you grocery shopping too?" Boboiboy asked as he put the last item in the basket.

"Yes, but just the flour." Mara replied. She then rolled her wheelchair towards counter. Boboiboy was followed behind her. 

They exits the shop, and walked down the street. 

"It just you two? Where's Amato?" Mara asked. She was wondering because Amato usually with Mechabot.

"He was with us earlier... I wonder too, where did he went..?" Boboiboy answered. 

Mechabot scoffed. "He must be somewhere playing video game without me!" Mechabot shouted furiously.

"Hmm... I doubt it." Mara commented. "I think he is with Bula and Bili. Isn't it his and Pian's turn to be bullied today?" Mara added. 

Boboiboy tilted his head slightly  "Turn to be bullied...? The bully has a schedule... to bullied people...?" Boboiboy asked, he didn't know whether to be surprised or angry about that.

Mara sighed as she nodded her head. 

"I don't understand, he knows silat but why doesn't he fight?" Mechabot questioned. He had told Amato to fight back several times as he refused to let him shoot them. He even suggested to them to just bullied Pian, but it also didn't work. 

"Sigh... Learn silat not for violence, but for self-defense." Mara replied as she looked at Mechabot. 

"Wasn't it just the same thing?!" Mechabot questioning back. Fight back is self-defense. You defend yourself by fighting back, doesn't it was the same thing? Mechabot thought.

Boboiboy slightly laughed at Mechabot's expression as his thoughts was written on his face. "It's different Mechabot. You can fighting back is when your opponent uses violent that might harm you and other, but above all of that you still need to avoid fighting and try another option. Unless you had to as your life in danger." Boboiboy explained.

"Why you human was so complicated?" Mechabot complained while crossing his arms. If you know how to fight, then fight.

"Do you know silat, Boboiboy?" Mara asked as she looked at Boboiboy. 

"Oh... I don't." Said Boboiboy, he then pause a bit as he was thinking of something, "Hurm... maybe I should say, I didn't learn it properly. I just learn a basic move from my dad."

Mara then stopped her wheelchair and turn to looked at Boboiboy properly. Boboiboy just stand awkwardly at Mara's sharp gaze. "Really?" Mara asked. 

Boboiboy quickly nodded his head.
