Chapter 89

Ilulu and Love? is the eighty-ninth chapter of Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon.'''

Summary
Riko and Kanna try to help Ilulu and Taketo with their relationship.

Plot
While passing through the candy store, Saikawa notices something strange in Ilulu's attitude when she is around Taketo, which she thinks is because Ilulu is in love. In discussing this topic with Kanna, both girls set out to encourage them to go out together. Despite Taketo being a bit reluctant to the idea, he ends up accepting when Ilulu claims that she has no problem dating him.

Because Saikawa and Kanna disguised their request as simple child's play, Taketo and Ilulu must do a search for objects left by Saikawa throughout the entire park. Things are going quite well, even when Taketo gets a little nervous about his friend's breasts.

However, when the final test arrives, which involved a group of gang members who would try to take Ilulu from Taketo, the thing got out of control, because even though Saikawa had in effect asked some gang members to do that, those who arrived were "real". Despite not knowing Saikawa's plan, much less knowing that the gang members were indeed for real, Taketo stands in front of Ilulu to protect her, which makes the girl freeze, unable to react to fight.

Frightened by the course of how things turned out, Saikawa complains to Kanna for them to seek help and since Ilulu wasn't reacting, Kanna saves the situation by going to cry in front of the gang members, at the same time causing the anger of Saikawa, who goes a in defense of Kanna. Once free, Kanna asks Ilulu why she didn't did anything to save themselves, to which the dragon answers that when Taketo tried to protect her, she had a strange feeling that made her impossible to act, to what Kanna thinks that maybe that is what Saikawa called "love".

After a while, the bad guys in the park run into Tohru, who obviously didn't bother giving them what they deserved.
