Finally in the best mood I'd been in for days I walk along the jam-packed streets, playing a game of 'dodge the other pedestrians', only to accidentally bump into a man "Sorry." i muttered, trying to side-step the man so that i could continue my walk, only for him to step in the same direction as me, effectively blocking my path "You think saying sorry is enough?" I only bumped into you, and it wasn't intentional." "Huh!? Are you trying to make a fool out of me!?" "if you're acting like a 5 year old then yes." i say glaring at him "Why, you little!" The rude man angrily reaches out to grab my arm and though i try to dodge his grip, he's a little too fast for me "Hey ... let go of me!" i say, backing up while trying to wrench my arm from his grasp, only to crash into someone else
But before i can turn around to see who i had just walked into, a hand shoots out from behind me and grabs the arm which the man was holding on to, roughly pulling it away from him "What th-- Soryu!?" once she gets a good look of the figure behind her, she recognizes it to be the dark-haired mobster "Get lost." he snaps at the man. "If you have a problem with her, take it up with me instead." Quickly stepping in front of me, he stands protectively between me and the man. Due to how tall he was, i wouldn't have seen the man cowering under his sharp gaze if i hadn't peeked out from the side of him.
"I-I'm sorry, lady!!" the man stammers. "I wasn't watching where I was walking! I'll be on my way now!" With that the man is gone, running with his tail between his legs "i had that covered, but thank you." "Eisuke only just let you go free. He didn't do that so you could get yourself into trouble with some punk, you know." "Let me go free? That's certainly one way of putting. Personally, though, I'd use 'kicked me out because he was doing using me'." "Is that really what you think?" "What else am I supposed to think? He found a better replacement, besides i wont have to even see him in 2 days, thats what he wants right?" i say looking down at my heels
"... Have you forgotten about the women who was sold at the auctions? Not you, the other one." "Eisuke did that to help her ... " "Yes, I know he can be reckless, and so cruel sometimes that it gives even me shivers. Sometimes I think that I can't put up with him any longer, but ... he's not a man who would hurt someone for no reason. I thought you understood that. Lots of things have changed since you broke up with Eisuke, right? And is it all bad?" i narrow my eyes and try to think "well i might've upset the man who raised me, and i'm avoiding kei so probably... but that's all my fault, I thought eisuke hated me, though ..."
"You wouldn't think that way if you'd seen how Eisuke normally cuts ties with someone; he's far more ruthless than that. And he's never gone to the trouble of talking to someone after he breaks up with them." he stops for a second. "You're the first." 'he did sleep while i was in the bed with him...' "He's been complaining about how bad the room service coffee was since you left." Soryu says, awkwardly brushing his hair up. "This really isn't like me, y'know. Poking my nose in other people's business." "Thank you, in any case though. I would've still been under the wrong impression."
"Well, I've done my part, now. The rest is your decision." his lips tug into a wicked smile. "If it doesn't work out between you and Eisuke, I can always just push Carolina back on him." That gets a laugh out of me "What good friends the pair of you are." "You think Eisuke and I are friends?" he asks, looking surprised "You aren't?" "Don't make me laugh. It's not that simple." "Say what you want, but you're still close. I mean, you know how he takes his coffee." "So do you." "Well yeah, but only because he forces me to make it for him all the time." "Still." he shrugs "What are you doing here, anyway? I'm surprised you just walk around the streets like anyone else."
"What's that supposed to mean?" "I always thought that rich people just drove around in limos or crazy prized sports cars." "I'm tailing someone right now." he answers, folding his arms. "And depending on how things are going to go, I might just have to dispose of him." Soryu had turned around and dissapeared into the crowd i look down at my heels and think for a minute 'even if i love eisuke... i don't want to be a burden on him anymore...' i look up at the sky and nod ' i'm going back to england right now.. and becoming a diplomat, i'll do anything for eisuke but...'
