I followed soryu to his room
"What is it you need" I asked harshly
"The girl who models the items up for bid is.....out sick" soryu said in a tone that suggested she wasn't truly sick
"Soooo" I asked
"You'll be replacing her for tonight" soryu said
I could feel my left eye twitching
"Oh of course" I said trying to fight the urge to cuss him out
"Here" he said handing me a pad of paper with a list of objects written in it
"What's this" I asked
"The items for tonight's auction memorize them"
Memorize all this there is at least twelve pages here is he insane do I need to take him to a damn mental hospital
I must if he thinks anyone could memorize all this
I covered my left eye with my hand to stop the twitching and forced a smile
"Of course" I said
I sat down and read page after page
Soryu sat at his desk reading a book
"You don't have to watch me you know I'm quite capable of reading a few pieces if paper" I said
"I don't feel like going back out there" he said flipping the page if his book
Is that the witness what the hell does he have a detective novel for
I thought to myself not noticing I was making a weird face and staring at him
"What" he asked noticing me from the corner of his eye
I quickly averted my eyes and looked at the papers again
He rolled his eyes and went back to reading
"That's a Good book" I said not looking up from the papers
"You read it before" soryu asked
"Yeah once or twice" I replied
"I think it's strange that today almost all books revolving around detectives there is at least one love interest" I said
I could here soryu chuckle a bit
"I agree" he said
His phone went off
He answered it
"Hello"
"Calm down inui what's going on"
He asked leaving the roomI don't know who was on the other end of the phone but I could hear shouting
I finished reading the last page
Okay I think in ready I thought to myself
Baba entered the room
"Blek" I said loud enough for him to hear
"Oh Tara this is for you" baba said handing me a long ankle length cherry red dress and dazzling red heels to match
"If you think that your going to win me over with a dress and shoes I'll stuff those heels down your throat and hang you with the dress" I said glaring at him but with a fake smile
He blinked a few times as if he was tempted to run
Instead he opened his mouth again and said
"I didn't get you it it's your outfit for the auction" baba said
"Oh thanks then" I said taking the dress from him
"Just so you know if I did get you a dress you'd love it" baba said with a smirk
I rolled my eyes
*peck*
Baba kissed me on the cheek and smirked
My eyes widened and I gaped at him
His smirk grew wider "seems I. Left you speechless"
After he said that I lunged him and yanked his hat off his head
"Hey give me my hat back" he yelled
I smirked walking over to the window and opening it
"What are you gonna do throw it you don't have the guts" baba said
"Obviously you don't know me" I said tossing the hat out the window
"NOO" he yelled falling to the floor in defeat
"Baba what are you whining bout now" soryu asked re entering the room
"My hat.....she....window....bye bye" is all baba could say
But it seemed like soryu understood what he meant
"It'd be wise to not kiss women who reject you" I said
Soryu chuckled under his breath
"Get out of here"soryu said to baba
"You get dressed" soryu said to me
I nodded
Entering the bathroom and putting the dress on
It's kinda tight I thought to myself
"Well this should be a blast" I said to myself sarcastically looking in the mirror
"It's going to be a looking night"
