Blue Spring

-Maple Red-

The Kambe Villa preceded it's reputation, it was opulent yet effortless, it wasn't too far from the main city and was shrouded in mystique. 

It's entire architecture was monarchial, Gojo's mother was an eminent interior designer this was to be expected. The entrance to the villa was a two minute ride. 

Gojo and Nanami got off the car and walked inside the villa, Gojo family head had intimidated the house keepers about Gojo's arrival and so they were greeted. 

"Young Master welcome." Two middle aged men slightly bowed and welcomed the tall, poised and distinguished individuals. Gojo was in awe of the interior, it was all inspired from ancient japanese architecture, it was splendid. 

"Young Master, we have prepared the bath for you and clothes, please freshen up while we prepare food." 

"That sounds good, Nanami I'll be back by then please work on my request." Gojo walked away with one of the housekeepers who guided him to his bedroom.

"Please prepare food without fish, he is allergic to it." Nanami ordered, while he sat down on the sofa removing his suit jacket, and placing his brief bag near him. 

"Dear Sir can we get anything for you?" One of the housekeepers spoke up.

"One black coffee will do." Nanami responded and the housekeeper nodded in agreement. 

"Now then, let's make the arrangements." Nanami said as he took out his laptop and began researching for an empty apartment or anywhere with possible room sharing. 

Gojo was guided to the bedroom and he wasted no time and got into the shower, he always enjoyed baths it felt as if some burden was being forcefully pulled down from his body by the water, he craved showers always and he usually took them at midnight. 

Gojo came out wearing an expensive maroon silk robe that the house keepers arranged for him. It exposed his bare chest and his contoured abs ever so slightly. He didn't dry his hair or did skincare, he simply dried his body and approached the bar counter that was set up in his room.  A plethora of expensive and eminent liquor was arranged for him, from Hibiki to Macallan. Gojo's gaze went to the exquisite bottle of domaine de la romanée-conti wine, and gently poured the wine in his regal Cabernet glass. And made his way downstairs wearing the same robe. 

"Nanami any luck?" Nanami's eyes diverted from the laptop screen to Gojo who looked quite chivalric while holding the wine glass but that was just his well sculpted face and his aura, his attire was quite questionable to Nanami who had always seen Gojo in specially woven classic four piece Italian suits. 

"Sir what are you wearing?" Gojo made his way next to Nanami and sat down on the couch. 

"What's wrong with this? Robes are meant to be worn aren't they?" Nanami stopped the words coming out from words and decided to ignore this unsightly attire. 

"Sir I enquired different apartment complexes and they've sent me pictures you can take a look." Nanami passed the laptop to Gojo and he scrolled past all the apartments and room choices, but nothing was to Gojo's liking, it wasn't that Gojo was looking for something luxurious, he just wanted a place that looked like home. Something that felt warm and comforting. And just when Gojo was about to discard this idea, his eyes met with a house that seemed like it was in the main city but still was quite alien in the area, the house was simple yet sophisticated, and the rent was quite low. It piqued Gojo's interest. 

"This one." Gojo flashed the screen to Nanami, who's face turned black. 

"Sir, are you serious? You chose the worst of the lot." Gojo kept on sipping his wine, and finally replied. 

"Why what's wrong with that house, it looks tasteful." 

"Sir, this is a house owned by someone, it's not an apartment complex, how will you live in someone else's house?" Gojo didn't pay much heed to Nanami's nagging. He got up with his wine glass and proceeded towards the dinner table. 

"Get it done Nanami, please." Gojo flashed a sparkly smile to Nanami, which infuriated him but he nodded in agreement, he couldn't disobey Gojo. 

"And come over to the dinner table, the food looks scrumptious." Within an hour dinner was done and so was Gojo's co-sharing with a stranger. 

"Nanami come with me." Gojo and Nanami went to walk outside the villa for a while. It was around 10 pm and the breeze was light just how Gojo preferred it. 

"I presume you've received your orders." 

"Yes I have, I will be leaving soon." 

"Good." Both males didn't speak for a while until Nanami broke the silence. 

"Sir how are you going to manage there? What about a job?" 

"Nanami do you take me for a fool? I have enough saved up that I can go on unemployed until the day I die." 

"Were you always planning to leave the family?" 

"I don't know, perhaps I did it unintentionally, as a backup. And about a job, I can find one easily with my qualifications any multinational corp would welcome me. That is unless..." 

"The Gojo Family doesn't let you." 

"Right." Unknowingly, Nanami lost track of time he didn't let it show but he really respected Gojo, it was hurtful to let someone so talented and gifted leave the family. A prodigy. 

"Sir, It's time I take my leave I have forwarded your contact details to the owner, he will send you the meet up details, the rent for the first year has been paid off by the Gojo corp, and before you object to that, it's company policy." Gojo stopped in his tracks and smiled at Nanami, he was his P.A but he was also a dear friend to him, but he never told him that. 

"Sir thank you for all these years." Nanami bowed in respect, and so did Gojo. 

"Thank you Nanami for taking care of me." By then the car had arrived on the door step, and Nanami knew it was time to leave. 

"Nanami find time to meet me once in a while, it would be nice to catch up." Nanami kept his head low and didn't respond, he knew it won't be possible. And so did Gojo. Nanami simply walked to the car. 

"I will sir." Nanami realized he had made an empty promise but he couldn't help himself. Gojo simply smiled in response. 

Within seconds, Nanami exited the Kambe Villa. 

"Now then, let's speak with this owner I have a lot of stuff to do." Gojo went back to his bedroom and opened his phone. 

Nanami had sent him the phone details of this person. 

"Geto Suguru is it?"
