Chapter 118 - Chapter 118 — The Diary That Should’ve Stayed Locked

Candy, drunk with power, tapped another glowing page. 👆📱✨

Mochi lunged forward like a warrior protecting her honor.

Mochi:

"CANDY— DON'T—"

Candy:

"Too late!" 😇

The page opened.

Everyone leaned in.

Maya:

"This is going to be stupid." 🤡

Cousin:

"This is going to be cultural trauma." 😭

Father:

"This is going to be educational." 🧐

Mother:

"This is going to make me pray." 🙏

Candy began reading…

📖 ENTRY: "MOCHI FAMILY"

Candy (reading in her cute, innocent voice):

"'Candy.

She is little tornado.'"

Candy puffed her chest proudly. 🌪️

Candy:

"Yes! I am tornado!"

Maya and Cousin giggled.

Candy continued.

Candy:

"'She is like my little piggy…

who lived in pond of my village.'"

🧊🧊🧊

THE ROOM FROZE.

Everyone slowly looked at Mochi.

Then slowly looked at Candy.

Candy blinked. 👀

Candy:

"I am piggy?"

Mochi whispered with dangerous calm:

Mochi:

"…He compared my little sister to a PIG.

IN A POND?"

Father rubbed his forehead. 🤦‍♂️

Father:

"He should start running the moment he wakes up."

Mother laughed behind her hand.

Mother:

"He meant it affectionately… but oh god…"

Maya burst out laughing.

Maya:

"He basically said she's muddy and adorable!"

Cousin:

"He is DEAD."

Candy giggled happily.

Candy:

"I like piggy!"

Mochi:

"CANDY NO—"

Too late.

Candy:

"'Maya and Cousin…

I like them.

They are good friends of Mochi.'"

Maya:

"Awwww— 💖"

Candy kept going.

Candy:

"'They are like the monkey sisters

who live in my village temple.'"

🐒🐒💥

MAYA & COUSIN (together):

"MONKEY?!"

Cousin:

"THE TEMPLE MONKEYS?!"

Maya:

"THE ONES WHO STEAL FOOD?!"

Mother burst into tears laughing.

Mother:

"Honestly… accurate."

Father nodded seriously.

Father:

"I always thought these two behave like monkeys."

Maya threw a cushion.

Cousin threw a slipper. 🥿

Candy continued unfazed.

Candy:

"'Big Brother.

He is the best.'"

Father puffed his chest proudly. 💪

Father:

"Finally. Respect."

Candy:

"'I like him.

And I support soldier the most.'"

Mother smiled warmly.

Mother:

"He respects service."

Candy read on.

Candy:

"'He is like uncle

who protect my cow.'"

......

Then—

💥💥💥

Maya:

"HE CALLED HER BROTHER A COW-PROTECTING UNCLE?!"

Father froze.

Father:

"…A uncle?"

Mother patted his shoulder.

Mother:

"It's a compliment in his village."

Father:

"It doesn't FEEL like a compliment."

Mochi stared in horror.

Mochi:

"He's turning my family into farm animals…"

Cousin:

"And us into monkeys."

Maya (saluting):

"I accept my monkey heritage."

Candy continued.

Candy:

"'Mother and Father…

I like them.'"

Mother and Father softened.

Mother:

"Aww—"

Father:

"That's sweet—"

Candy read the next line.

Candy:

"'I want to become couple like them.'"

Mother smiled warmly.

Father nodded proudly.

Then—

Candy:

"'Mochi…

she is like my favourite cow Lakshmi.'"

🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋

THE HOUSE EXPLODED.

Maya screamed into a pillow.

Cousin slammed her head on the sofa.

Father grabbed his chest. 💔

Mother sat down from laughing too hard.

Candy:

"Mochi sister is cow??"

Mochi's soul left her body.

Her spirit grabbed a sandal.

Her aura turned homicidal.

Mochi:

"I AM WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Cousin:

"He compared his future wife…

to his FAVORITE COW."

Maya:

"HER NAME IS LAKSHMI—

THIS IS FARM-GODDESS LEVEL—"

Father whispered.

Father:

"Son-in-law… your death is near."

Mother wiped tears.

Mother:

"He meant precious…

but oh god this is BAD."

Mochi stood up slowly.

Eyes blazing. 🔥

Jaw clenched.

Mochi (deadly calm):

"When.

He.

Wakes.

Up."

Cousin:

"He's going to the Himalayas TODAY."

Maya:

"Without monk bag."

Candy patted Laddu's head gently.

Candy:

"Brother… you are finished."

Candy's eyes sparkled again. ✨

Candy:

"There's… one… more… page!"

The entire family gasped.

Mochi:

"CANDY.

STOP.

THIS IS NOT HEALTHY."

Candy:

"But it says UNLOCKED!"

Father grabbed a cushion like a shield. 🛡️

Mother whispered.

Mother:

"We must emotionally prepare."

Cousin:

"Let's die together."

Candy tapped.

📖 ENTRY: "TODAY MOCHI GIVE AWAY MY TOYS"

Candy:

"'Today Mochi give away all my toys.'"

Mother sighed.

Mother:

"Oh no…"

Candy:

"'But the way she do that…

I got impress.'"

Maya:

"IMPRESSED?! She ROBBED him!"

Cousin:

"He likes being punished. Confirmed."

Candy continued.

Candy:

"'The way she talk…

I want to be in her arm all day.'"

Everyone turned to Mochi.

Mochi turned red instantly. 🍅

Mochi:

"H-HE WHAT—?!"

Mother:

"He wants comfort."

Father:

"He wants control removed."

Maya:

"He wants to be emotional kebab."

Cousin:

"Carried like grocery bag."

Candy giggled.

Candy:

"'I want Mochi to carry me everywhere.'"

💥💥💥

Mochi:

"EVERYWHERE?!"

Mother:

"Like a baby kangaroo!"

Father:

"No. Like potato sack with feelings."

Cousin:

"He's already a lap dog."

Candy read calmly.

Candy:

"'I want to be her baby.'"

🧨🧨🧨

Maya:

"HE WANTS TO BE BABY BABY BABY—"

Mother (clapping):

"A NEW RELIGION."

Mochi:

"WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS MAN?!"

Candy continued.

Candy:

"'If she hug me…

I will throw anything.'"

Maya:

"TODDLER BEHAVIOR!"

Cousin:

"He'll throw remote, phone, soul."

Mother:

"Affection makes him feral."

Father:

"He needs discipline."

Candy read the final lines.

Candy:

"'She think tall flower is common name.'"

Mochi:

"It DOES sound common—"

Candy finished.

Candy:

"'It take 10k dollar to find this name.'"

......

EVERYONE:

"WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Maya:

"HE PAID TEN THOUSAND FOR A NICKNAME?!"

Cousin:

"FOR 'TALL FLOWER'?!"

Mother clutched her chest.

Mother:

"This boy needs a doctor."

Father wiped his eyes.

Father:

"I am scared of his commitment."

Mochi was GONE.

Mochi:

"TEN.

THOUSAND.

DOLLARS.

FOR.

TALL FLOWER?!"

Candy nodded proudly.

Candy:

"He really love you, Mochi Didi!"

Mochi covered her face.

Mochi:

"THIS BOY IS DESTROYING MY SANITY—"

And then—

Laddu, still asleep on her lap, smiled peacefully 😴

and murmured:

Laddu (sleep-talking):

"Tall Flower… best name… worth all money…"

Mochi froze.

Then whispered:

Mochi:

"…I'm going to pass out."

Mother:

"He worships you."

Cousin:

"He's not boyfriend. He's devotee."

Maya:

"One step away from touching her feet."

Father:

"He already tried. Accidentally."
