[DISCONTINUED] Love Letter From Thief X~ Black Foxes & Scarlet Foxes

Chapter 18~ My Gift to You

Takuto’s POV

“A kimono?!” I exclaimed, accidentally spitting some of my food onto Beardy.

Whoops.

“Wahhh! Takkun!”

“Oh suck it up, it was an accident.” I shrugged, reclining back onto my chair.

“How mean. . .”

“How annoying. . .” Turning back towards Riki I asked, “You want me to buy her a kimono?”

Riki nodded while grabbing one of those Chinese take-out containers, scooping some onto his plate. “Why not? It’s not every day you go to Hong Kong.”

“Yeah, but do you actually think Miss. Takara will wear this, Rikkun?” Hiro questioned.

“Beats me,” Riki sighed as he placed the container back onto the table, “But maybe not. You don’t even know what color or design she’d like on it anyways. What about. . . A purse?”

“I doubt she’d use it.” I said flatly. “Takara’s girly, but not that girly.”

“Oh.”

“That’s too bad you can’t buy her clothes,” Kenshi said, “It looked like magenta was her favorite color.”

“You know,” Hiro started, “If Takkun wasn’t that possessive of Miss. Takara, I could've hugged her and secretly measure her body lines. . .”

“Pervert!” I shouted, throwing my chopsticks at him.

“Woah, hey! Watch it! I could've gotten stabbed!” Hiro exclaimed in disbelief, barely dodging the flying chopsticks.

I shrugged, nonchalantly placing more food into my bowl. I then grabbed my water bottle, bringing it to my lips.

“Takkun’s so mean,” Hiro faked a cry, “If only Kara-Chan were here to soften him up like a marshmallow then he would be nice to me!”

(COUGH COUGH)

“Hey, you okay?” Riki started patting my back as I coughed my lungs out.

Just kidding.

“Yo orange!” I hissed out, still hacking. “Don’t call her that!”

“Huh? Why not?”

“Because… Because…”

Why… Why do I feel like I said that nickname before? To who?

“Takuto?” Kenshi worriedly waved his hand in front of my face.

“… Nothing… It’s nothing.” I answered, sighing.

“You sure?” This time, Riki asked. “You look spaced out.”

“Just thinking…” I lied.

Well, I guess I lied on that part. Why does that nickname sound so familiar?

Boss broke the silence by saying, “How about a hair accessory?”
