The two kept swearing at each other (in a good way) for embarrassing themselves in front of Sushang

"Why did you bring THAT up?!?!"

"It's true, not my fault for looking good and being in someone's imagination."

"I hate you."

"I love you too."

That went on for a very long time, but eventually, they both gave up. Blade went to wash the dishes while Dan heng was going to write some things down to put in the data bank when he would come back.

After a few minutes, Blade comes back and says

"We're out of food."

"Really? Absolutely nothing?"

"Nothing. I'll go buy some."

"Alright."

Blade walked out of the house and made his way to the grocery store.
As he walked in, he took a few turns to find the food they wanted, but eventually, he found it. He grabbed the basket and started putting the things in it. Suddenly, two young Vidyadhara approached him.

"Hey look its the criminal!"

Blade ignored them at first, but it got worse.

"Yeah! Acting all nice and innocent!"

"Clearly after the wanted posters disappeared, he became all weak again!"

"There is no more scary criminal man  anymore! I'm just a big stupid guy!"

The kid sticked his tongue out as he looked at Blade. The other one just laughed along and pointed at Blade.
Blade wasn't happy about it. He just wanted to take his sword out and kill them both, but he knew that he could not do that. Not only would he get arrested, but Dan heng would be mad. He tried to ignore them, but it wasn't of much use. He even moved to a different aisle, but they just followed him.

"LOOK he so scared that he's running away."

They just laughed at him. He felt weak for not talking back and instead just walking away, that at one point, he shed a tear.

"Ugh! You two! How many times have I told you not to make fun of people!!!"

A Vidyadhara lady approached them, the mother of the two kids.
Blade realised it and was very happy that the mother had arrived. The mother pulled them away by their ears and walked up to Blade.

"I'm very sorry for their behaviour."

"It's fine.."

"Thank you, now YOU TWO!!"

The lady went to the children and got angry at them.

"Ugh! What would the High elder think of you two if he would ever see you! Two kids of the Vidyadhara race that go around and make fun of people, yeah?"

"Like if that were to ever happen!"

The mother grabbed both of the kids by their ears again and pulled them out of the shop. To be precise, they didn't buy anything because they were there to buy candy, but the kids misbehaved, so there will be no candy.

Blade then went to pay for the things he bought. After leaving the store, he decides to go through a dark alley to avoid people, scared that it will happen again. It made him feel worse because, according to him, it made him 'weak'. Shedding tears, he made his way back to his house, where his male housewife had waited for him. As he opens the door, he is greeted by Dan heng, who had a broom in his hand.

"Oh, you're back."

Blade puts the groceries on the floor and falls on Dan heng. Thankfully, Dan heng grabbed him in time and held him in his arms. Dan heng was pretty shocked. He didn't know what had happened. All he knew was that his coat was wet on his shoulder, where Blade had put his head. Oh, how his hear ached when he saw Blade sobbing on his shoulder. He gave Blade a warm and tight hug.
