Unspoken Love

Ryoga's master

The black van is in the middle of the forest, Sakuno is still crying with her head lowered down. Ryoga is sitting beside her gazing at the starless sky, his gaze went to the young girl once in a while checking her condition. Ryoga sigh, he then slowly went closer to Sakuno and removed her blindfold. The young girl was surprised and flinched as she felt Ryoga's movements near her, upon seeing the starless sky, Sakuno looked at Ryoga confused. "Anou...why did you do this?" Sakuno asked and Ryoga looked at the sky again, he gave the young girl a blue handkerchief and said "It's not like I'm a bad guy. I'm just following orders, plus you need to stop crying so take this handkerchief and wipe those tears away. I promise we won't harm you."

Sakuno smiled, "Thank you...but...it seems there is one problem."

Ryoga looked at her this time, the young girl smiled ackwardly, "My hands are still tied up so I can't wipe them by myself."

Ryoga sigh, he then began untying the rope that tied Sakuno's hands. The young girl then took the blue handkerchief and wiped the remaining tears in her face with it, "Thank you so much. You don't feel scared that I might escape...don't you?"

"Nope, I know you'll not do anything rash like that. Besides...Ryoma would definitely beat me if he knew you came back with wounds all over your body" Ryoga replied smiling to himself.

Sakuno stared at Ryoga for a moment, He really is Ryoma-kun's brother...they really look alike.

"What is it, missy?" Ryoga asked still gazing at the sky.

Sakuno's face became flustered, "Ah! Sorry, I was just thinking you and Ryoma-kun really resemble alot. I didn't even know Ryoma-kun has an older brother."

Ryoga laugh and looked at Sakuno, "Well I heard that a lot when we both hang out as kids. Though I'm not really blood related to him. You see, his dad adopted me when I was still young and me and Ryoma both grew up together. But I left them when I was in highschool. It's not a surprise he's angry at me right now."

Sakuno replied, "I don't think you did that because you hated being with them. I know you have a reason why you left. Anou...Ryoga-san? Can I call you that?"

"Ok, but you know...you can call me brother in law too if you want...haha" Ryoga said jokingly and Sakuno's face reddened.

The van went to a stop and entered an area with a big mansion on the center of it. "It seems were finally here,"Ryoga said and Sakuno felt nervous.

The two went out of the van and the door of the mansion opened, an old man dressed in a butler suit came to greet them. "Ryoga-sama, let me bring you both to your rooms. Master said to meet the young lady tomorrow morning since it's been a tiring day for you both. Please follow me," the butler said and both of them tailed behind.

Sakuno looked at all the pictures that were hanging on the walls, she wondered of this master they meant is someone fond to art for she saw a lot of paintings from different well known artist. The butler stopped in front of a two door bedroom, "Here Ryoga-sama is your room. While the young lady will be staying at the room opposite of yours."

"Thank you Sebastian, we will rest now" Ryoga said smiling at the butler and the latter bowed down to him then left immediately. "Well then Sakuno-chan, let's rest for now. Just call me if you need something ok?" Ryoga said and entered his room.

Sakuno sigh, "I'm entering now." She said as she slowly opened the door to her room.

When she entered the room, she noticed that it was decorated frivously. Her bed is a king size one with white curtains covering it, there was a white sofa just across the bed and pink petals of roses were spread all over the floor. Sakuno sweatdropped, "Is this really for me?" She walked around the room and sigh, "I guess I'll take a bath first and then rest for now." Sakuno went inside the bathroom only to see that a lavender top and a pajama were already prepared, the tub was placed with pink petals of roses. Sakuno took her time inside the bathroom, as she got out of it, she sat on the bed and looked outside her window. "I hope grandma and the others are doing alright," Sakuno said and went to sleep.
