"Hello, I'm Ijichi Kiyotaka."

"Kimura Akane here, pleasure meeting you Ijichi-san."

They both shook hands with each other while Gojo looked at them with bored eyes. His eyes peeking through his rectangular dark glasses at the child who was sleeping on Akane's shoulder peacefully.

They were all at one of the best restaurants at Tokyo, gathered together to discuss about the 'disease' Kimura had. Though Kimura rejected going to a grand place as such, Gojo acted stubbornly, as if he was a child of age 5.

All of them now sat on their designated table, after giving their order to the waiter, Gojo spoke.

"So this is your sister?"

"Yeah. Her name is Kimura Akari."

"She's cute." Ijichi spoke as he looked at the sleeping figure on her shoulder. Akane chuckled and tucked little Akari's hair behind her ear,

"She is, though she can be real handful sometimes."

"So tell me, when did you had the symptoms?"

Gojo asked as he leaned down on the table, supporting his face with one hand. Kimura Akane could clearly see his eyes now as the rectangular shades slid down from his nose bridge a little.

Her eyes widened as she emerged herself in those blue eyes. Like how waves in the ocean glimmer when the sun shines on it, Gojo Satoru's eyes shone just like that. They were like waves constantly moving in an ocean so massive, that she thought it was beautiful but overwhelming at the same time.

His eyes were beautiful... beyond beautiful if she could dare say. The first thing she saw was the beauty the blue oceanic eyes held but later she saw something familiar. Something dry, like boredom seeping through his eyes but there was something else too-

"Kimura-san?"

Ijichi spoke, taking the woman out of her thoughts. She realised how rude she just seemed and apologized. She now diverted her attention from Gojo to Ijichi, but the white haired man stared at her like a hawk.

When the woman stared at his eyes, he knew that she was captivated by them. His eyes were beautiful and he knew that but, after some seconds it looked like she was watching something else. Not the beauty of his six eyes but his-

"I think they started from month ago. It was around the time when I was looking for a new apartment to shift into."

This time Gojo was brought back into reality by Kimura's words. He sat straight for a minute only to slouch lazily on his seat. Ijichi nodded as he wrote her words in his little notebook.

"Were you stressed more than usual during that time?"

"I guess, last month Akari was going to come with me to Tokyo permanently."

Akane spoke as she gently patted her little sister's back in a soothing way. Gojo could see her curse energy wavering a little and her eyes being more emotional for a second. He hummed and spoke,

"What about your parents? Where were they a month ago?"

"...they died a year ago actually."

Kimura said and both the men fell silent. Gojo was at lost of words but he could feel Ijichi's glare piercing through the thick atmosphere.

'Are you an idiot?! Did you not read the details I sent you?! You told me to bring them few days ago!! How can someone be so insensitive?!!'

If eyes could kill, Gojo Satoru would be six feet under. Few days ago when they discussed about growing curses with their former sensei, Kimura Akane's name was there too. Ofcourse Kimura did not know the secret investigation they had about her. He wanted to bring the questions related to her parents a little later to gather as much as information from the doctor but Gojo Satoru had to be an Idiot!
