The Cold Hearted Beauty & The Little Beast

Family

A group of men and women sat together in a conference room waiting. The doors opened and Mikaela walked in. "Alright." He said. "Now. I need a good lawyer who will help me win this case." The place went rowdy with all the layers pointing at themselves. "Help me win it, and I will give you all the money you want." The lawyers continued to bicker with each other. "But. If you loose this case and I loose those kids, I am going drag to so low to the ground and mess you up you won't even believe what's happening."

That shut everyone up, suddenly the lawyers with their pride were bow dead scared. It seemed that no one wanted to face the wrath of The Mikaela Shindo.

"So, who will be my lawyer?" He smiled.

"You know." Miyu said as she held on to the news paper. "I've always wanted to be popular, you know, for action or singing. But this is just-" She looked into the news paper where she and Michiro were all over the internet. The news about Mikaela Shindo going to court to get the custody of two kids. "I really hope Mr. Shindo wins this."

She looked up to see Murakami at a desk reading. "You know this is all your fault."

Murakami sighed. "For the hundredth time Miyu, it's not my fault. I'm just the one in charge of the adoption process. Two men wants you two and none are willing to back down, the only thing that can be done is that they go to court."

"Why won't you just believe me?" Miyu asked.

"Miyu, there's no solid evidence." Murakami said. "I mean, it's possible but we need proof, we can't just take them from a child. Don't worry, since you've already made complaint, your father will be looked into."

"He's not my father." Miyu said. "If he wins this, he'll try to do it again." She held her body. "He'll try and take me. I'm scared, I don't want him to harm me or Michiro."

Murakami stared at Miyu, she was shaking, she felt like Miyu was telling the truth, but in all honesty, she couldn't do anything. The law wouldn't just act on a child's word, of course they would look into the matter, which they were doing at the moment for Miyu and Michiro's dad.

"Don't worry." Murakami said. "I'm sure Mr. Shindo will win, I mean, it's Mikaela Shindo of course." She stood up. "I'm going to make us something to eat, why don't you go call Michiro."

"He isn't here." Miyu said. "He went on a date."

"D-date?" Murakami asked. "He's eight, who is he taking on a date? What money?"

"He's the one being taken out." Miyu said.

"Come again?" Murakami asked.

"Michiro has a boyfriend." Miyu said, suddenly she heard a slump sound and turned to see Murakami on the floor. "Hey, you ok?"

"He's eight." She said. "He has a boy friend. I'm twenty seven and yet...not a single love story."

"I am so sorry." Miyu said.

Shingu took Michiro to his family restaurant, it was the first time Michiro was meeting Guren and Shinya. "So." Guren said. "You're one of the kids that Mikaela wants to have so badly." Michiro nodded while chewing on his food.

"Oh Guren, he's so cute." Shinya said. "Shingu, why haven't you introduced us to your friend sooner?"

"He's not my friend." Shingu said.

"He's not?" Shinya asked. "But I thought-"

"He's my boyfriend." Shingu said.

"WHAT?" Guren screamed as everyone on the restaurants turned their heads to see what was going on. "Sorry." He waved to the crowd. "Please continue with your meals." He looked at Shingu. "Son, don't joke like that."
