Maybe a Fake Gintama - Chapter 88

– Humans Are Forgettable CreaturesAfter listening to Shinpachi’s explanation, Kawaki finally understood why Gintoki was so angry today.

“So that’s how it is,” Kawaki sighed and continued, “It’s still the same as before. He is still not good at expressing himself. In short, I understand. What you said makes sense. I will seriously consider it!”
“Thank you so much!” Shinpachi replied happily.
“Now, I also have a question to ask you.” Kawaki continued.
“I will tell you everything I know!”
“What exactly is the Christmas present that Kagura-chan wants?”
After saying that, Kawaki began to look forward to Shinpachi’s answer.
“Of course it’s meat…” Shinpachi subconsciously wanted to answer, but he still reacted, “Do you still want to give Christmas presents? Can you satisfy Gin-san’s desire to give gifts! Can you!”
“You may say so, but I feel a little uncomfortable if I don’t send something on this special day…”
“No need! I already said there’s no need!” Shinpachi retorted, “This kind of doting doesn’t benefit Kagura-chan’s growth at all! In short, just let Gin-san send a Christmas gift alone this Christmas!”
After saying that, Shinpachi stood up and walked out without looking back. He walked to the door and opened it, only to see a group of Hyakka members eavesdropping at the door.
Shinpachi, “…”
“Kawaki-sama~ I also want a Christmas gift~,” A Hyakka member walked in gracefully and said coquettishly.
“I also want~”
“Me too~”
“What Christmas present do you want?” Kawaki asked with a smile.

“If it’s possible~ I want Kawaki-sama’s kiss~,” A Hyakka member said.
“Hey! You are too shameless! How can Kawaki-sama like a woman like you!” Another Hyakka member said unhappily.
“What did you say?”
Looking at the Hyakka members who were about to fight, Shinpachi was speechless. Then he slammed the door of Kawaki’s room and left without looking back.
…
When Shinpachi found Gintoki in the sake house, Gintoki was already drunk.
“Gin-san, I have asked for the Christmas present that Kagura wants!” Shinpachi sat down and shouted at Gintoki.
“Eh?” The drunk Gintoki glanced at Shinpachi, “That kind of thing doesn’t matter, right? Just save the money and let me drink a few more cups~”
“Hey, there’s no need to give up on yourself! Didn’t you want to give Kagura-chan a Christmas gift since yesterday?”
“That kind of thing doesn’t matter~,” As he spoke, Gintoki once again looked at the boss of the sake house, “Uncle, give me another pot of sake…”
“That’s enough! How much do you want to drink!” Shinpachi shouted, “You clearly want to give Kagura-chan a present in your heart! Just because of this little setback, do you want to give up on yourself? If you don’t convey it yourself, how can others understand your feelings! Why is your personality so bent like naturally wavy hair! Why don’t you just say what you want to say!”
“Uncle, do you know how it fell your daughter doesn’t even have a Christmas present?” Gintoki said to the boss drunkenly, “The uncle took away the daughter’s heart just by giving away some precious things. Do you know this feeling? Obviously, the old father who raises her has worked hard for a year and wants to give his daughter a Christmas present she wants!”
“When did you become Kagura-chan’s old father! When did you raise Kagura-chan! What do you mean by hard work for a year! How did you work hard!” Shinpachi shouted.
“Customer, your daughter will grow up and leave you one day. Shouldn’t you already understand this?” The boss smiled and pushed a bottle of hot sake and a plate of Oden to Gintoki.
“This cup is my treat. I understand your feelings. Speaking of which, my daughter’s heart was also hooked by a brat…”

“Uncle… you…”
“What you said is not the same thing! And why are you so touched!” Shinpachi shouted at Gintoki, “In short, the Christmas present that Kagura-chan wants is meat buns! Just right, the bun shop is not closed yet! Anyway, this is all I can do. As for whether to do it or not, it is up to you!”
After saying that, Shinpachi stood up and walked out.
Gintoki silently poured himself a glass of sake and drank it. He did not seem to want to stand up and leave at all.
“Customer, it’s closing time.” The boss said from the side and took away the glass in front of Gintoki.
“Closing time?” Gintoki raised his head and said.
“If I don’t close, the bun shop may close.”

“Uncle, you…”
“If you want to convey it, you can definitely convey it. I believe it!” The boss said with tears streaming down his face, “Your feelings! That daughter will definitely understand! That hot meat bun that contains a father’s feeling, any daughter will definitely understand after taking a bite!”
…
“Can this thing really work?” Gintoki walked on the road and looked at the meat bun in his hand, puzzled.
Just as Gintoki was lost in his thoughts, he had unknowingly walked downstairs of Yorozuya. Gintoki raised his head and looked at Yorozuya, who was lit up. He was a little hesitant.
In the end, Gintoki still walked to the second floor, but he was still a little hesitant. He didn’t know how to face Kagura.
“Merry Christmas!” Gintoki deliberately shouted and pushed open the Yorozuya’s door, “Kagura, I bought the meat buns you wanted! Of course, I didn’t buy them on purpose. I just happened to pass by the steamed buns shop and remembered that a certain guy seemed to have said something like [I want to eat meat buns-aru!], and just in time for the promotion…”
When Kagura did not speak, Gintoki opened his eyes. At this time, Gintoki realized that Kagura was not in the house.

Gintoki walked into the room and saw the note on the table.
Gintoki picked it up and fell silent after taking a look.
[On Christmas Day, uncle said he will treat me to a big meal, the address is xxx, and Shinpachi is also there. Kagura-chan]
“What the hell is this!!!” Gintoki’s fragile little heart suffered 10,000 points of damage.
After that, Gintoki sat on the sofa with an expressionless face and lowered his head without saying a word.
At this time, Gintoki glanced at the meat buns on the table, “It really is the worst Christmas day…”
Then, Gintoki reached for the bag of meat buns, took out one, and started to eat…
When there were only two left, Gintoki stopped. Perhaps he thought of what Shinpachi had said at that time. Finally, Gintoki made up his mind. He picked up the remaining two meat buns, stood up, and rushed to the door.
However, at this moment, applause sounded. Kawaki and the others, who had hidden in advance, walked out.
“Gintoki, we all understand your feelings!” Kawaki covered his eyes and said.
“Isn’t it possible to do it if you want to? I knew it!” Shinpachi also said with tears streaming down his face.
“He looks a little like a man.” Tsukuyo continued.
“I didn’t expect Gin-san to have such a side to him. You treat Kagura-chan…” Otae covered her mouth and murmured.
“Gin-san, you made me lose my pocket money for a month!” Seita curled his lips and said.
“I buy all the candied haws for you, right?” Hinowa smiled, “If you eat too much sweet food, you will become naturally wavy hair without energy.”

“Gin-chan…” At this time, Kagura was so moved.
After a long time, Gintoki raised his head and said, “No, I just feel that I can’t finish it and it will be a waste. I want to take the rest to the bun shop and return it.”
“What did you say!” Kagura-chan took the lead and rushed up to kick Gintoki over, catching the remaining meat buns.
The whole room began to be noisy.
“Then let’s have hotpot together! Let’s eat hotpot today! We should eat hotpot in this weather!” Kawaki suggested.
“That’s true.” Otae echoed.
Gintoki, who was still lying on the ground, curled his lips and said softly, “It really is the worst Christmas day… But…” As he spoke, Gintoki looked at Kagura, who was holding a meat bun in one hand, “Happy Christmas…”
…
After the commotion, Kawaki sat on Yorozuya’s roof and looked at the snowflakes that filled the sky. His thoughts were pulled to a distant past.
“Aren’t you cold? Why are you in a place like this?” Gintoki’s voice rang out.
“Meat buns,” Kawaki said with a chuckle, “I still remember that I also made a wish for meat buns on Christmas. Gintoki, do you still remember?”
“That was a long time ago. I had long forgotten about it,” Gintoki replied casually.
“You’re right. After all, humans are creatures that are easy to forget.” Kawaki jumped down from the roof, “Goodbye, I’m going back to play a new game.”
Looking at Kawaki’s back, Gintoki’s thoughts were slowly pulled to a certain point.
