How to deal with a runaway girl

Chapter 5

At the time, Aki calmly used the toilet and washed her face. Finding herself in an unfamiliar place with an unknown man, she tried to remain calm. She didn't even want to think what her father would say if she came home now. Knowing him, there probably won't be any reaction. It is possible that he will look at her with indifference and then go back to work without saying a word. Aki stared at the mirror in front of the sink, wondering again what to do. Should she stay with him, or should she try to return home, where she is unwanted anyway... Her thoughts were interrupted by a person entering the bathroom. Aki dried her hands and slowly walked towards the Japanese man's room. Being close to his room, she noticed doctors carrying out a visit.

They were checking Takano's condition, so the girl waited patiently until they left. While leaving the patient's room, a familiar doctor noticed Aki standing in the corridor. Recognizing the doctor, the girl smiled gently at him. But after a while, her expression became serious again. The man narrowed his eyes, intrigued by the sight, but he had no opportunity to ask what was going on. The round moved to the next room and the girl entered Takano's room. She sat down on a chair next to the bed and looked at the man curiously. The Japanese wrote something on the phone for a while without looking up. Aki involuntarily thought of her father and barely held back a snort of dissatisfaction.

"Okay..." He said, putting his phone on the cabinet. "I've already informed someone where I am. So what should we do? Are you hungry? It would be nice to eat something" He added, smiling encouragingly.

"I am.. a bit...." She mumbled, looking straight into his shining dark eyes.

"Take my wallet and buy us something from the vending machines. Apparently they're here in the hospital" He said encouragingly.

The girl got up from the chair, took his wallet out of the cabinet and without a word went out in search of food. She found vending machines, spotted some tasty things, so she opened his wallet and... She froze... She realized that she was holding a bulging wallet stuffed with cash in her hands. Takano only knows her name, no one in the hospital has the slightest idea who she is... If he just takes out the money and throws away the wallet, she will have enough money to live peacefully in Japan for a few days and then... Then...

"Boss's wallet" Aki was grabbed by the wrist by a very tall Japanese man. The man with a deep voice was over a head taller than the girl, who was not short herself. "Take me to him"

Aki looked first at the hand holding her wrist, then at the man's face.

"Boss means Takano...?" She asked uncertainly, praying that the man would deny it.

Hearing the name, the tall Japanese man nodded without changing his very serious expression. Aki sighed. Very, very deeply. She bought the previously selected products and after a dozen or so minutes she was back in front of the door of Takano's room. A tall man right behind her was carrying groceries in his arms.

"Oh... Midari. It's good that you are here" Takano greeted his subordinate.

"I'm here, boss. What should I do?" The Japanese asked in a low voice.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Aki started taking the food and drink packages from Midari and handed them to Takano as if nothing had happened, and then they both started eating.

"Complete formalities related to discharge from the hospital" The injured man said between bites, suddenly switching to Japanese. "There's no need for me to stay here any longer"

Aki looked from the newly arrived man to Takano, having no idea what they were talking about. After a while, Midari left the room.

"So what? I'll slowly get ready since someone has already come for you..." She said, putting the empty food box into the trash can. "I'm glad you're not in any danger anymore. Look after yourself.."
