The Sakura Tree | A TanKana Fanfiction

~Alliance~

It was so tiring, working with his ex. But something inside him changed- perhaps a little glimmer.

"So, what are you waiting for! Get started!" Tanjiro snapped

"Excuse me, but we are in the company, Kamado-sama. At least act with some manners. You are yet to tell me what your company does." Kanao argued.

Tanjiro rolled his eyes in exasperation, "Isn't it quite obvious, Kocho-sama? My company is world famous!"

"Yet you haven't told me what they do yet." Kanao retorted.

"Ugh, we are another furniture store!" Tanjiro said.

"Hai," Kanao said, getting serious, "and my company does furniture too. So now we need to work together on our designs. My company has a few designers that I could send to you." 

I can't let my personal problems interrupt my concentration. My company needs this. Even though father was rude about it, he only wants the best for my company. Kanao knew that her father would get nothing out of her company. 

"What about you," She asked, "do you have any workers you could send to my company? Since your company is in Tokyo, and mine is in Osaka, we need to send workers over." 

"Whatever."

Kanao forced a smiled, "We need to start thinking about some ideas for-"

Tanjiro suddenly slapped her across the face.

"NANI!? WHAT THE HECK WAS THAT FOR!?" 

"Stop acting so smart! We are NOT on good terms, and YOU need to keep your mouth shut and listen to me!"

"THIS IS A PARTNERING ALLIANCE!" Kanao snapped.

"AND THIS IS NOT KINDERGARTEN!" Tanjiro returned.

Kanao was raging mad. Who he h*ll was he to tell her what to do?

"Who are you to order me around? My company is not any lower than your company. Now that I think about it, mine might be higher than yours!" The woman riposted.

Without waiting for a reply from the other, Kanao said, "Work's over for today. Go back to your company." 

Then she left the building. 

Tanjiro was shocked by how much his ex changed. Kanao used to be a normal worker who was always under him. She never used to have such a sharp personality. 

But now, Kanao was the owner of a company almost higher than his. How hard had she worked? She clearly had no help from her sisters, least her parents.

The male shook it off. Why should I feel pity for her? So what if she has a bigger company than me? I'm much more capable than her! 

"Honey-chan! I'm home!" Tanjiro said.

Daki was on the couch, scrolling through her phone. She sprang up when she saw Tanjiro.

"Tanjiro-kun!" Daki exclaimed in her glossy voice.

"Etto... gomenasai for not being able to go shopping with you today..." 

"Ah, daijobu!" 

See, my new wife is much better than her! 

"Good news, Daki-chan!" 

"Hai?"

"I just met with the CEO of another world famous company! We're going to get a lot of money soon, so I can buy you that Chanel Bag you wanted!"
