Maka was sitting on the couch, 阅读 a book about resonating with your partners, when the front door burst open and Soul and Black*Star walked in, looking very smug about something.
She eyed them warily, not trusting their smug looks. “What did 你 two do this time?”
Soul grinned at her. “We got 你 something!”
Maka stared at them, still not trusting their smugness. “What is it?”
“I’LL TELL 你 WHAT IT IS! IT’S GREAT BECAUSE, I, YOUR GREAT AND MIGHTY GO-“Soul elbowed Black*Star. “And Soul… GOT IT FOR YOU!” Black*Star finished. Soul held out the package.
Maka took it and opened it cautiously. Inside laid a new Kindle. “So 你 don’t have to lug around all those heavy 图书 all the time.” Soul 说 pointedly, looking at Black*Star who nodded enthusiastically at him.
“Wow, guys, I don’t know what to say!” Maka beamed at them. “I’ve wanted one for a while, now.”
Soul grinned at her and 说 “How about ‘Thank-you’?” He refrained from adding “Tinytits”.
Maka smiled at him. “Thanks!” She suddenly frowned. “What’s the catch?”
Black*Star and Soul exchanged worried glances. “Uh, t-there’s no catch!” Soul stammered.
“RIGHT! YOUR GOD HAS NO NEED FOR CATCHES! HE IS TOO GREAT AND MIGHTY FOR SUCH SMALL THINGS AS ‘CATCHES’! I WONT SURPASS GOD 由 A ‘CATCH’”
Maka looked dubiously at the two of them, “Ri-ight.” she said.
“So anyway, we had to come and give that to you. Uh, 嘿 Black*Star! Wanna go play some basketball?” Soul awkwardly guided Black*Star out of the house. “Whew. Glad that’s over. Do 你 think she knows why we gave her a Kindle?”
Black*Star rubbed a large bump on his head, having been placed there 由 Maka’s book. “I don’t know, but my head sure remembers!”
Soul sighed, “Let’s hope that we get a few less concussions for now on.”
