Chapter 17: a date with Callie
A mini-comic I found on the internet, because why not
Tadayoshi wakes up in his bed and sits up
Tadayoshi: man, that was a long night, last night
Callie: well your not done yet
Tadayoshi turns around to see Callie staring at him at the side of the bed, which cause Tadayoshi to jump a little
Tadayoshi: Jesus christ, how long were you watching me, and how did you get in my house
Callie: well when you dropped off Marie home, I asked if I could come home with you and up you said yes
Tadayoshi rubs his face
Tadayoshi: please don't tell me you slept in the bed with me
Callie looks away
Tadayoshi: *sigh*
He gets off the bed
Tadayoshi: alright, can you get out, so I can change
Callie then lays on the bed and looks at him
Callie: why can't I stay in here with you
Tadayoshi: because I'm gonna shower and change
Callie: I won't look
Tadayoshi picks up Callie and tosses her out, then locks the door
Callie: hmm, your no fun
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After Tadayoshi finish everything upstairs, he heads downstairs to see Callie, sitting at the table with a fork and knife and slamming it on the table over and over
Tadayoshi: hold your horses, I'll make you waffles
Callie: hurry up then, or I'm gonna starve to death
Tadayoshi: you'll be fine
He opens his pantry and throws a bag of chips at her
Tadayoshi: eat that, until I'm done cooking
Callie: ok
As Callie eats her chips, she watches him cook, but strangely she notices that he puts in things that usually aren't in the ingredients to make waffles
Tadayoshi: oh and don't look, it's my secret ingredients I'm using
Callie looks away, for once
Callie: "where should we go on our date today"
Suddenly Tadayoshi sets down her plate of waffles
Tadayoshi: eat up, and when you're done, let me know when you're ready to go out
Tadayoshi walks over to the couch and turns on the tv
Callie takes a bite of his food, leaving him shocked
Callie: HOLY SHIT, this is amazing
Tadayoshi: it's just waffles
Callie: I know, but this is the best thing I ever tasted
She quickly finishes her waffles and shakes Tadayoshi
Callie: pleeease make morrrree
Tadayoshi: maybe next time, when I cook for you
Callie puffs her cheeks and puts her arms folded
Callie: hmm, fine
Callie runs upstairs
Tadayoshi: where are you going
Callie: to change
Tadayoshi: but aren't you wearing on for today
Callie: no, I brought it here, so you can see me-
Tadayoshi: I'm not gonna peek at you
Callie puffs her cheeks and continues upstairs, but she stops and looks at Tadayoshi's room
Callie: he wouldn't mind-
Tadayoshi appeared behind him
Tadayoshi: don't even
Callie: I'm going, I'm going
After Callie finishes changing, she runs downstairs
Tadayoshi: are you done?
He turns at her and sees her clothes
Tadayoshi: you know, for someone who likes to eat a lot, you have a good taste in style
Callie: shut up and thanks
Tadayoshi: so...
He shuts off the tv and gets up
Tadayoshi: shall we...
They both went out of the door to start their date
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Both Tadayoshi and Callie walk around Inkopolis square
Tadayoshi: so, what do you want to do
Callie thought for a moment and begins to pull on Tadayoshi's hand
Callie: let go to the arcade
Tadayoshi: if you say so
They both enter the arcade and play some game and Callie got a bit annoyed by Tadayoshi beating her in some games
Callie: how are you good at games
Tadayoshi: don't know
Callie then notice a claw machine with a Marie in squid form plush
Callie face-plants the claw machine
Callie: I need that plushie
Tadayoshi: alright the
Tadayoshi watches her attempting to get it, but he had to stop her a few time because she kept punching and yelling at the claw machine about how rigged it was
Tadayoshi: why don't you let me try
Callie: fine, but it's impossible
Callie watches as he looks at the side and the front of the claw machine measuring it and hearing him whispering some math
Tadayoshi: ok I've got it
Callie: you got it?
Callie watches him play the claw machine and win the plush
Callie: What!?
Tadayoshi: never thought math would help me with that
Tadayoshi gives her the plushie
Tadayoshi: here ya go
Callie looks at him eye-to-eye and then hugs the plush, trying to hide her blush
Callie: thank you
Tadayoshi: no problem, anywhere else you want to do
Callie: before we leave I want to do one more game
Tadayoshi: what's that
Both Tadayoshi and Callie were standing in front of a dancing game
He turns to Callie
Tadayoshi: I'm not doing it
Callie: come on, you can do the BeatBox version
Tadayoshi: I'm still not dancing
Callie: fine I'll convince you to dance
Callie steps on the machine and starts dancing, which got her a high score
Tadayoshi: still not convinced, I've seen you dance before, so it not a huge surprise
Callie: Oh come on, why don't you want to dance
Tadayoshi: because I don't dance
Callie: if I pay you, will you do it
Tadayoshi: how much
Callie: 500
Tadayoshi: *sigh* add in another 100 and you have a deal
Callie: done
Tadayoshi walks over to BeatBox's dance game versions and closes his eyes
Tadayoshi was standing in a dark room, but notice Alex looking at the dancing game, but this Alex had black hair
???: what's wrong kid
Alex: I don't want to dance
???: oh come on, I'll dance with you
Alex: ok
Both got on the game and dance together
Tadayoshi then opens his eyes, and he turns at Callie, who was in complete shock
Tadayoshi: what
She points at the game, and he turns at the screen and realized that he had the highest points
Callie: h-how did you do that
Tadayoshi then looks down and puts his hands in his pocket
Tadayoshi: I don't wanna talk about it
Tadayoshi turns and walks away as Callie watches him, and then catches up to him
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This story is interrupted by a chibi Callie drinking lemonade and chibi Tadayoshi wipes off her mouth, which causes chibi Callie to have steamed coming out of her head
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
For a few hours, Callie and Tadayoshi went shopping and Tadayoshi end up carrying the stuff that she bought
Callie: come on, let's get something to eat
Tadayoshi: good, cause my arms are getting exhausting
They entered a cafe and found their seats and took their order
Callie: this has been fun
Tadayoshi: you think because I thought I'm boring you out
Callie: Yeah, and why do you think that
Tadayoshi: you're making me do the carrying
The waiter then appears with their food
Waiter: here is your-
The waiter then realize that she as meeting one of the squid sisters
Waiter: OH M-
The waiter then notice Tadayoshi giving her a death stare while putting his finger close to him, showing her to keep her mouth shut
Waiter: umm... enjoy your food
The waiter quickly turns and left them as fast as she could and Callie began to gobble down the bucket of fries, while Tadayoshi drinks his coffee
Callie: so... Marie told me about you yesterday when you guys went out, and I was wondering... if you can tell me about you a bit
Tadayoshi: if you tell me about you
Callie: well-
Tadayoshi: I want to hear something that gives you emotion
Callie thought for a moment
Callie: when it was me and Marie's last splatfest, and Marie won, I was proud of her and I knew she deserved the win...
Tadayoshi leans closer to listen
Callie: ... but, ever since then, we both went separate way, but we knew the squid sister last forever, but it hard, because the squid sister always kept us together, but now, I feel like that I and Marie are fading away from each other, and we won't be able to look at each other
Callie slowly stops eating fries and looks down
Tadayoshi sets down his coffee
Tadayoshi: Callie...
Callie looks up at him
Tadayoshi: don't give me that sad bull crap
Callie was surprised by his answer
Tadayoshi: you are not fading away from her, yes, you and Marie are now separate because you guys have different jobs, but that doesn't mean you losing her... you're just afraid of being alone
Callie looks at him
Tadayoshi: you are not alone, you and Marie are a family, and family always keeps everyone together, so be happy that Marie is not only your cousin but be happy that's she your sister
Callie begins to tear up a bit, but when she looks up, she ends up getting stuffed in the face with fries
Tadayoshi: now stop being upset and eat your fries, you glutton
Callie chews up the fries and swallows it, while her cheeks were puffed up
Callie: I'm not a-
Tadayoshi: now give me some of your shares
Callie: hey!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It was dark out and Tadayoshi brought Callie back home
Tadayoshi: hey Callie
Callie: yeah
Tadayoshi: I'm sorry for yelling at you
Callie: it's ok
Tadayoshi: well, it's just, I don't know what's like to have someone close to you
Callie looks at him
Callie: but-
Tadayoshi: yes I have siblings, but I was being pushed away from everyone because of my parents, and everyone that knows me, when I was a kid
Callie: ...
Callie: were you always alone
He turns at her
Tadayoshi: yes, I was always alone, but don't worry about me
Tadayoshi pats her head
Tadayoshi: I'm still going, aren't I
Callie smiles
Callie: Yeah, you are
They finally arrive at Callie and Marie's home
Tadayoshi: welp, see you later Callie
Tadayoshi turns to leave
Callie: Hey... wait
Tadayoshi turns at her
Tadayoshi: what
Callie: thank you for cheering me up
Tadayoshi: ...
Tadayoshi: don't thank me...
He turns and walks away
Tadayoshi: ...thank your sister for being with you
Callie smiles and walking inside and leans against the door
Callie: "I wish I went a little farther with him"
Back at Tadayoshi, he was walking home, but he stops and looks at the night sky
Tadayoshi: *sigh* I wonder if my life is changing... probably not
