Latched

Chapter 21: Her Almost

Silence. 

Emptiness. 

Boredom.

The familiar clinic felt weird as a certain pink-haired gangster entered its premises. He lurked his emerald eyes around the first floor and perceived no presence. He hummed and headed to the second floor, to the doctor's personal space. There is only one day that he had not seen the woman because he had other businesses to take care of, plus he is still looking for the father and daughter tandem who managed to pull one trick on him. The past day, he was able to find out that the two tricksters are working with another underground gang, Paradiso, an Italian mafia that rules Europe.

Sanzu Haruchiyo is a prideful man. Thus, he is working on this situation on his own. He thought that he's the one who failed when he allowed to let one single woman manipulate someone like him, Bonten's no. 2. Her father is powerful politician in Japan. He continues to rise in power with Bonten's help. Now that he's running for a higher position, he tried to show the public that he is able to raid one of the organization's club and even set one headquarter on fire which are both under the second-in-command. Since Bonten is renowned all throughout Japan, the people will trust him greatly when they see the politician's achievement on national TV.

What annoys the emerald-eyed delinquent, is the fact that he got played by not only the father but the daughter; sophisticated, intelligent, and incredibly sexy, not to mention, awesome in bed, Agatha Minami. As much as he wants to torture the living daylight out of the two, he doesn't want to, just yet. The timing must be right and perfect.

Thus, since he is bored, he decided to pay the doctor a visit. However, his disappointment only increased when he didn't see a single soul in the solemn place.

"You're not running away from me, are you, Doctor?" he asked the thin air as he picked a photo on a table in the living room. It's the doctor's face wearing her laboratory coat. A date is also written on the lower left side of the photo, July 31, 2008.

"Sir..." The pink-haired man turned his head to one of his minions who just spoke from behind. He's currently in the girl's bedroom where he slept once.

"I have something to report." With his hands in his pockets, Sanzu continued to walk around the girl's room.

"Is it about the Minamis or the Doctor?" he asked as he opened a certain drawer, revealing the organized undergarments of the female doctor.

"About the Doctor, sir." the man said with a straight face. Sanzu smirked and stroked one bra. He picked it up and looked at the size.

"36, huh? She looks 32, though? Is this thing accurate?" His subordinate is already used to his boss's weird fetishes. Thus, he continued to talk.

"She was spotted in the airport earlier at 5 o'clock. Turns out that she's headed to Okinawa, together with her friends in Tokyo Manji Gang." On cue, the man with the diamond scars on his mouth stopped and put down the woman's bra in the drawer and closed it again.

"Sounds like a beach party." Sanzu suddenly wore an evil smile.

"Dominic, prepare my fastest jet. I have a party to crash." he declared and went out.

A loud gasp was released by a certain gray-eyed woman who suddenly stormed out of her bed, gasping for her as soon as she woke up from a certain nightmare.
