Chapter 5:
How My Guardian Angel Became My Boyfriend?
An hour before Kaito departed from the angel realm, Catherina aka Fluffy revealed to him the reason why Christopher had been holding a grudge over him for all these years.
“ All the humans Christopher has had until now have all been very materialistic, wanting nothing but material things, “ she uttered sternly. “ What I’m trying to emphasize here is that Christopher has never had a bond similar to what you have with your human, Sakura Fambrose. “
As he continued to listen, Fluffy uttered, “ Requesting his services when they needed either phones, money, or any other materialistic things, Christopher had been feeling very lonely inside, finding no sense of purpose to his duties as an angel. “
“ Christopher was delighted inside when your human never requested you for the past sixteen years due to his situation as he didn’t want you to win over him. That’s also the reason why he’s been persuading you to have other humans and abandon Sakura, all so that you would be in a similar situation as him. “

Recalling all the times Christopher had been hurling his laziness at him, Kaito gritted his teeth, “ That’s so selfish of him! Just because things didn’t work out the way he expected them to, he wanted to ruin things for me by breaking my bond with Sakura. How is this fair? “
Standing up suddenly despite the weakness he was feeling due to Christopher spiking his drink, Fluffy asked, “ Are you going to settle scores with him? “
“ I have far more important things to do than settle my scores with Christopher. “ He uttered sternly.
Rewinding to the present, Kaito uttered, “ I won’t let my bond with Sakura break. I need to explain my side of the situation to her and stop Christopher’s antics. “
“ What are you going to do if she doesn’t believe you? What if she doesn’t even let you approach her? What will you do then, Kaito? “

Recalling what Sakura emphasized to him about trust, he uttered, “ Sakura must be extremely angry at me, so much that she might not even want to see my face, but I’ll convince her to believe me. I’ll try every trick in the book and show her my sincerity. “ He concluded, determinedly.
Grinning slightly, Fluffy uttered, “ Then, go, Kaito! Go and reclaim your bond! And about your fever, only Sakura may break it. “
?
“ What do you mean, Fluffy? “ He asked, confused, to Fluffy who answered, “ Once your bond is restored, your fever will automatically break and you’ll feel as fresh as ever. “
“ Thanks for the info, Fluffy. “ He uttered, gratefully. “ I’ll be on my way now. “
“ Good luck, Kaito! “
In Tokyo, Sakura was thinking about Camille and what she said as she handed Kaito’s picture back to her.
As she stared at the picture, she was about to throw it away in the dustbin when she felt a presence.
“ Are you going to throw it away, Sakura? “
!!!
Standing behind her in the air was her guardian angel. Without turning back, she uttered, “ What are you doing here, Kaito? “
Responding to the question she asked, he uttered sternly, “ I’m here to explain my side of the situation to you. Will you please hear me out, Sakura? “
“ We have nothing more to discuss. Please leave! “ she uttered, coldly at Kaito who felt saddened and hurt.
Landing on the ground, Sakura felt footsteps behind her and turned away suddenly. About to hurl back at him for not listening to her, she was taken aback when Kaito suddenly collapsed on her.
“ What do you think you’re doing? Let go of me this instant! “
Mumbling, Kaito uttered, faintly, “ I didn’t mean to break my promise to you, Sakura. I was to come back to you as I promised, but I couldn’t. I’m sorry, Sakura, for breaking your trust in me. I’m very sorry, but please believe me when I say it wasn’t intentional. “
Right after mumbling those words, Kaito lost consciousness in Sakura’s arms.
Dragging him to her bed, she laid him there, but when she was about to put some covers on him, she noticed something even more shocking.
“ Why is he sweating so much? “
Taken over by curiosity, Sakura checked his forehead and instantly removed her hand. “ His forehead is burning as if he was inside a volcano. Why is his forehead so damn hot? “
Shocked, she mumbled, “ Do angels also fall sick? “
Recalling his earliest words to her before he collapsed, Sakura mumbled, “ So the reason he didn’t meet with me after school was due to this? “
Meanwhile, in Camille Green’s house, she was in front of her computer but her mind was elsewhere as she was constantly thinking about Kaito’s picture she rummaged from the trash.
“ That picture was so beautiful, but why did Fambrose-San throw it in the dustbin? “ She mumbled and mumbled again, “ Ambrose-San has an unyielding talent unlike me who can’t do anything right. “
“ If I was adorned with such talent, then my page wouldn’t be blank now. “She mumbled, sadly.
Staring at the blank document in front of her eyes, she closed the window. Opening another, she googled something like, “ How can I make my dreams come true? “
Suddenly, a link appeared to her among many others. Clicking it, she was directed to a website she had never seen before. “ What’s this? “ She gasped.
Reading the description of the website, she gasped even more, “ Making all dreams come true with nothing but a tap? “
At the same time, in the angel realm, Christopher had returned. Flying toward his office, he sat down at his desk and shut his eyes.
Suddenly hearing something tinkling, he reopened his eyes and gazed at the screen. Noticing a notification appearing by a red dot, he mumbled, “ This must be one of those requests again. I don’t even want to open it. “
Feeling a familiar energy, Christopher mumbled once more, “ What does she want? I don’t wish to see anyone right now, but if I don’t let her in, she’ll be a pain to deal with later on. “ He gasped.
Alleviating his energy level, Catherine made her way inside Christopher’s office.
“ What do you want, Fluffy? “
“ You’ve got some nerve asking me that, after what you’ve done. “ She glared at him and Christopher responded, “ I see. Kaito went to complain to you, didn’t he? “
“ Why would you do that? “ She glared even further. “ For what reason did you spike his drink? “
In response to the questions, Christopher uttered hypothetically, “ Why are you asking me such questions when you already know the answers? The reason I did all this, you know why, don’t you? “
“ I couldn’t stand the bond they shared and wanted to acquire it for myself, but that human was so headstrong and wouldn’t even let me approach her. “ He complained to Fluffy before asking, “ Where’s Kaito right now? I bet he’s so saddened that he won’t even step foot out of his office, right? “
Suddenly grinning, Christopher found it suspicious and asked, “ Why are you grinning? What does this mean? “
Responding, she uttered, “ For your information, Kaito had gone to the human realm to patch things up with his human and hopefully, he’ll be successful. “
!
Going quiet, Fluffy uttered, “ Kaito was also going to settle his scores with you, but you came back beforehand. Did you know that Kaito had always been envious of you? “
“ What? “
“ Kaito had always looked up to you and wanted to be just like you. He looked up to you like a role model and yet, you betrayed his trust in such a trashy manner. I’m so disappointed in you, Christopher. “ She uttered, sadly.
“ I’m disappointed by the mere fact that, blinded by jealousy, you were unable to see the respect Kaito had always felt toward you. “ She walked out of Christopher’s office without another word to him.
Reflecting on his actions, he mumbled, “ I must have gone a tad too far. Will Kaito ever forgive me? “
Gazing at the screen once more, the red notification was bothering him, so he thought of checking his request box.
Stunned at what was written inside the request box, he mumbled, “ This cannot be. Is this a mistake of some sort? “
“ As far as I can remember, I have always received requests about nothing but materialistic things over and over again. “ He mumbled.
Recalling all the previous requests he’d received over the years, he mumbled, “ For me to suddenly receive such a request, it must be a mistake. Besides, I shouldn’t be granting such a request after what I’ve done to Kaito. “
Recalling Sakura’s glares and Kaito’s twinkling eyes as he spoke of his human, he mumbled yet again, “ It won’t hurt to go see, right? “
Back in Tokyo, Camille, who was at school, was trying yet again to write something, but couldn’t write something productive.
Suddenly recalling Sakura’s picture, she wrote something profound for the first time and when she reread it, she gasped. “ What am I doing? How could I write about that picture? What if Fambrose-San gets upset at me? “ She thought internally.
Appearing in the classroom right at that time, Christopher mumbled, “ That girl with the shortened green hair and honey eyes must be the human who requested my services. Now, how do I go up to her? “
