I wanted to caress that ink on his bicep and his sinewy forearms. “Join me.” I licked my lips and swallowed hard. My gaze dropped to what was peeking through his boxers—his tattoo. I moved forward so he could sink in behind me. “The tattoo you have there is interesting.” “It’s inked out of fun.” “What does it mean?” I knew it was written in Japanese. “Keizoku w* chikara nari. Something like, don’t give up.” “I like it.” “Thanks. You’re killing me, you know,” he said with a groan as he joined me. He settled himself in, stretching his legs out on either side of me. He then wrapped his arms around me.

He said, nuzzling my cheek softly with his nose. I blushed but this time I made no effort to shy away from him. I figured it would be silly at this point seeing as we just kissed. “What is a Teman Sejiwa?” I asked. Lio let go of my face and sat up very straight. “Teman Sejiwa means ‘soul mate’ in Malay. Our clan has Malaysian origins but much of the culture has faded as we’ve come into this day and age. However, the language will always remain a part of us. It’s unique to our clan specifically.”

Hence, she took a chance… Translator’s note: [1] 中二 is the short for 中二病, a colloquial term derived from Japanese that can literally be translated to ‘middle-two disease’ or ‘middle-school second-year syndrome’. This is used to describe early teens (or in this case, Ye Xiao) as having delusions of grandeur: this was what we chose to use given the context of the criminal underworld.

“Nothing! I just thought you’d give me the real answer instead of saying what most are expecting.” “The real answer?” I asked in confusion. “She’s joining because we’re working like that ‘coco say tan tay’ from Case Closed that she likes.” I stared at her, looking more confused than before. What did she say? Then, it dawned on me and I laughed. “Oh,” she crossed her arms; “forgive my twisted Japanese. I believe you have a Japanese relative, Major. Would you mind correcting me?” “W-Well,” I wiped my tears of joy; “it’s koukousei tantei.”

“So I’m not being nosy or anything, but are you a neko?” Not being nosy? When he was asking me that type of question? Obviously, Isaac had been reading too many yaoi manga since Jess had introduced that world to him and his friends six months ago. And now he, and of course his friends along with Jess, had begun to use the terms like seme and uke whenever they discussed yaoi, which they did often, like once a week at the apartment. Of course, no one dared to bother them during their serious yaoi conferences, especially during their heated debate when they preached to each other like a bunch of Roman philosophers about their top pick of the week.

Jerry said with sparkling eyes and acting like a fellow injected with chicken blood. “Oho? You also know this one? Is there any BL manga you don’t know?” Jessica asked in amusement. “Well I do know a lot… like a certain harem one, with the MC actually ending with two hot gongs!” Jerry said with a devilish smirk. “Eh?? Harem!! Please tell me!!” Jessica said excitedly. “ ‘There’s no way this is fate!’, it’s hella interesting and there’s also a sequel I think,” Jerry said

She’d seen them in a few Japanese manga and anime, the ones she’d had time to watch. “You know why they call me Yokai?” he asked one more time, a smile on his face. “They thought I have super powers like the characters in the Japanese Yokai inspired manga.” Artemis laughed. She won’t blame the kids if she’s there in his tale as an adult or a fellow kid. He sure looks like he’s got super powers. “Some of them think I might be an evil spirit in the manga. You know those ladies that have snake kind of neck? They thought I’m into that shit.” His words spewed through his laughter.

Movies, malls, gaming centres, fun centres, almost every place they go. Even though I'm so fed up with those two, it kinda felt cute seeing them being lovey-dovey which made me start to like them. Whenever I see them being affectionate towards each other, it reminds me of Yoshirin and Micchi, known for being such an affectionate couple starring in a Japanese tv drama named crayon Shin Chan. Jose asked me, "Why are you smiling at yourself? Did you finish your assignment?" "Ah! Don't remind me about the assignment yet. Let's deal with that after we get to class. Can I have my peaceful walk now?"

She scrolls through while reading their names. “Bitan… Furuōgi… Rokurokubi… no wait maybe it’s in the other folder.” She says and switches to the other folder to search for it. “Here it is!” she says while comparing the photo of a Tako nyūdō to the tentacle monster that they had encountered. [Author’s Note: Tako nyūdō is an octopus like yokai which is quite similar to the one they encountered… The octopus is a direct translation for Tako. I don’t know what the other thing means to be honest.]
