Another day passed , the main mission didnt progress much and not another incident had happened but Señorita was tired , it was because last night Jei and XD stayed up all night  playing the violin and Señorita couldn't fall asleep...

She was preparing a cup of coffee when XD came happily through the door ...
"GOOD MORNING MY DEAR SEÑORITA" Said XD smiling 
"Go away......" Said Señorita holding her coffee 
" OH dont be like that  , it wasnt that bad " Said XD 
" Yes it was now go away....." Said Señorita even more annoyed than before
"What are you drinking?" Asked XD pointing at the cup that Señorita was holding
"Its black coffee ,  go away XD " Said Señorita taking a sip from the cup
"Let me try" Said XD and snatched the cup from Señorita's hand "Hey give it back" Said Señorita with an angry expression but before she could do anything XD took a sip 
"hmmmmmm that feels nice" Said XD in a weird voice , it didnt seem like his " TOO nice to be normal coffee , did you do anything to it Señorita? " Asked XD still speaking weirdly
" No i didnt could you please give me back my cup " Said her trying to grab the coffee
"You dont understand Señorita it makes me feel..... NICE" XD said putting his mask up 
" I dont care , give it back " Said Señorita still trying to grab the cup from XD's hand 
XD didn't let Señorita grab the coffee only putting his hand up ....
" Sorry Señorita , but not having to feel every part of my body  and maintain its shape its TOO good to let it pass " Said XD while running up to his room
" What do you mean... oh ... HEY COME BACK I WANT MY COFFEE " Said Señorita as she ran following XD
" What's happening ? " Said Jei coming out of his room , XD passed in front of Jei , " Oh hi Jei" Said XD , " Good morning master whats...." Jei was interrupted by Señorita following XD....
" GIVE IT BACK XD" Yelled Señorita 
"NOPE" Said XD as he locked himself in his room
" Good morning Señorita , could you tell me what is happening ? " Said Jei 
" XD took my coffee and doesn't want to give it back " Said Señorita knocking on XD's door 
" Why ? , may i ask?" Said Jei trying to understand the situations 
" I dont know , he said he feels "NICE" " Said Señorita trying to mimic XD's weird voice 
Jei looked at Señorita with a confused face but shortly knocked on XD's door 
" Hi master , could i enter your  room , im not trying to take away the coffee " Said Jei trying to reason with its master
" Sure come in .... , wait... let me put a barrier " Said XD
Before Jei could open the door a green barrier covered the room 
" What the hell's that " Said Señorita , she tried touching it but it just pushed her back 
" im coming in master.... " Said Jei grabbing the doorknob
" The barrier wont let you....." Said Señorita but...
Jei opened the door and passed the barrier with out any problem
" What?!..." Said Señorita trying to enter again but meeting the same result as before
Jei entered the room and saw XD sitting on the ground , his mask still up , drinking the coffee slowly
"May i ask what is the reason you are drinking coffee master , i have never seen you drink  it"  Said Jei getting closer
XD placed the empty cup on the ground " Well my dear Jei , its because it feel really NICE " Said XD , the weird voice surprised Jei but he decided to ignore it 
" What does "NICE" means master ? " Asked Jei 
" Well , i constantly need to hold my shape , you know , but with this thing it lets me rest for a bit and i don't need to feel everything either , it feels relaxing " Said XD putting his hand and  stretching 
" OH...., it seems that..." Before Jei could finish XD talked again 
" And look what i can do " He said and stood up and without any difficulty summoned the trident  " Its so much easier to do when im not keeping everything in order"
Jei just looked impressed but happy that its master was doing "well".......
" Well i guess it is good news but if its not a bother to ask ... , is it safe master? " Asked Jei a bit concerned about its master's safety
" Safe? , well i don't really know ... , but its only a cup i don't think its that bad " Said XD making the trident go away 
Outside Señorita was still trying to break the barrier , she tried with her hatched  but nothing , she tried blasting it but it  just absorbed the blast,  at last she just kept banging the door until XD opened 
" Im done  , im done " Said XD opening the door
" What happened , wheres my coffee?" Said Señorita entering the room quickly 
" i finished im sorry ill make more okay " Said XD trying to calm Señorita , his tone of voice weirdly calming and more alluring than his normal voice
" Sure... " Said Señorita looking around in the room
It was empty...., there wasn't almost anything , Señorita never noticed but XD's room was very empty , he and Jei already left and were heading downstairs to prepare more coffee leaving Señorita alone ..... , the room barely had a bed and some boxes , Señorita checked them but there was nothing , most of the boxes were empty except for one that was filled with smaller boxes....
Señorita recognized the boxes , it was the gifts that she rejected from XD , there were earrings , necklaces and more similar jewelry
"oh XD..." Said Señorita closing the box and leaving the room before XD came back
Downstairs XD was already making coffee , surprisingly he was using his powers , two of his tentacles were making toast ,
"he never uses his powers like that" thought Señorita 
" Hey XD since when do you do that? " Said XD pointing at the toast making tentacles
"oh well , it feels more natural... surprisingly " Said XD serving the toast and placing it on the table along with another cup of coffee 
"Well if you say so.... " Said Señorita , XD turned around
 " WAIT... you are already drinking another cup? " XD just looked at Señorita and took a sip
" Well two cant hurt anybody right? " Said XD , Señorita just looked worried
" Hey Jei come here for a moment " Señorita tried to whisper " Do you think we need to worry? " 
" Well.. , master does act different but...:" Before Jei could finished something happened to XD
....
" Oh i dont think ... , no creo que haga daño verdad? , vado a prendere un altro po' di caffè... " Said XD finishing his coffee and serving himself another cup
" Jei!!!!!, what's he saying ?" Said Señorita "Its Spanish and Italian right? , since when XD knows Italian?" Said Señorita panicking
" Well , i did not know master spoke other languages" Said Jei as he got close to XD " hmm master i think you should stop drinking coffee " Said Jei trying to  convince his master
" NO!!! , deixe-me tomar meu café em paz " Said XD hidding his coffee cup in his arms
" master ... , I ... , eu sei que você realmente gosta, mas não acho que seja bom para você " Said Jei ("i know that you really like it but i dont think its good for you") 
" Pues no me importa Jei " Said XD leaving the house with another cup of coffee
.....
.....
" I didnt know you spoke Portuguese " Said Señorita to Jei
" oh , yes i know a bit ...., but ..... im worried about master XD " Said Jei
" Lets go after him then " said Señorita " do you think we should tell Seph? "
" well Seph went to hell to attend important matters so i think we need to take care of this ourselfs " Said Jei already leaving the house
" wait for me " said Señorita

----------------------------
-------with XD---------
----------------------------

" maldito Jei, yo solo quiero..., wie konnten sie verstehen, wie es sich anfühlt " Tought XD ( damned Jei, i only want..., how could they understand how it feels )
XD kept walking , people started whispering .....
"Whats with him?..."   "Whats he saying?..."
"Are those his eyes?..."   "Its probably just contacts..." 

People looked at him wondering a lot of things , XD kept mumbling in a lot of languages even ones that didnt seem human while he  drank more coffee
 XD ended up in a park 
" I .... i. .. ,  i should go back they just wanted to help... " XD said  " Pero ellos , they dont ... " ( but them ) , XD sat under a tree still trying to think something until someone approached 
" Ummm hi sir are you okay , do you need help? " A woman said
" Oh!! , si , sorry im fin..." XD said but something was wrong 
The woman's eyes were GREEN , they looked like Jei's
" Are you okay ma'am? " Asked XD standing up trying to find the cause of this
" Yes of course , why do you ask " The woman's expression was like a doll , not much emotion just a weird smile , the same that XD saw when he met Jei...
XD looked at her as he drank a bit more coffee , in that moment more people approached with the same face and eyes that the woman had , that Jei had....
" MASTER!!! " someone yelled from behind the hypnotized crowd 
" Jei ? , is it you?!! " Yelled back XD recognizing that voice
Señorita and Jei got closer  pushing people aside
" Are you okay master?!! "  Said Jei grabbing XD by the hands
" Yes , im okay Jei... "  XD said still understanding what was happening
" Whats with all of the people XD? " Said Señorita pushing them away
" Well , i dont , i , no lo sé...  "  Said XD as he put his mask down 
" Im sorry master we just .... wanted to help , we did not mean to ... " Before Jei could finish his sentence XD hugged Jei
" Yes , i know , im sorry i reacted this way , its just that i felt normal in a WEIRD way ... " Said XD picking himself back up
" Soo you are not an evil version of yourself? " Said Señorita 
" Nope , im still myself  its just that my mind feels weirdly clearer and sound a bit weird " Said XD laughing a bit
" Let's go home now master " Said Jei with a warm smile
" What do we do with the weird people? " Asked Señorita poking one of them in the cheek 
" Oh them .... , i think it would wear off once the caffeine dissolves on my body " Said XD putting his fingers like 👉👈
" Lets go then already ... " Señorita said starting to walk away
.......
A few hours had passed and Seph came back home , the caffeine had dissolve completely by now and XD went back to normal , XD had to explain everything that happened and got punished by Seph to stand in the corner of the kitchen but after that had passed he thought of something
Señorita came down looking for XD 
.......
" What are you doing? " Said Señorita to XD who was making something on the kitchen
" Well... " XD said and turned around , " this " He was holding a small white cube badly wrapped in plastic film  
" Whats that ? " Asked Señorita grabbing the small cube
" Its a cube of very concentrated caffeine " Said XD taking the cube back from Señorita's hand " This amount could easily kill a person but... " 
" You are not gonna eat that , right XD? " Asked worried Señorita
" NO... , no , its just a last recourse , ill save it until we REALLY need it " Said XD , he put the cube on his chest and just kind of melted inside of him....
" Well i hope you actually remember to use that ... " Said Señorita leaving XD alone again
