Living with the Monori brothers!

Finding out

~Doku Hana POV~
I open my eyes just to have them shut closed again. Ugh...my father must have open my curtains because the light was shining into my bedroom. Once I finally adjusted my eyes to the stinging sunlight I go downstairs to follow the yummy smell of breakfast. And sure enough my father is in the kitchen in the apron my mother got him for his birthday a few years ago, cooking breakfast. I've never really seen him in such a good mood since the funeral, so why the change of attitude.
"Hey sweetie! How'd you sleep?". He asks in a cheery voice. I must have been lost in my thoughts cause I then hear a "Honey! Are you okay?" Once I was out of my daze I then replied quickly "Yea...Sorry I blanked out, but I slept well." He then looks at me and smiles and sets a plate full of food on the table and says "Good because you have a busy day today!" I then just look at him with a confused look on my face.
"Wha--what do you mean?".
"Well, we've been having some money problems after your mother's death and--I need to get a job that pays good money".
"So what does that mean, how are we having money problems if mom got paid really good?" My father then sits down and looks at me with a serious look at says "Your mother was a very sneaky person and was working for a very dangerous person." I look up at him with a 'are you serious' look on my face "If you knew mother was working for a dangerous person and making our money go scarce, why didn't you stop her?".
"I tried to convince her to stop but she was not a very agreeable person." I was so done with talking about her. I roll my eyes and sit down to eat. I was confused why he said I had a busy day so I asked him "If your the one who has to look for a job why do I have a busy day?".
"You're going to have to live with an old friend of mine Doku, at least when you're with him and his wife, I know you'll be safe. Your mother's work didn't come without danger and consequences, they were really bad people, so I need you to cooperate."
I back away from the table to think, first I find out that my mom basically worked for the damn mafia, then I find out that I have to live with complete strangers? "Now that you are done eating go upstairs and pack your clothes." I look at him debating on if I should argue with him or not...I decide not to fight with him. I didn't even look at him when I got up and walked to my room...I will say I was upset but I thought it would be cool to go away for awhile...away from everyone and everything.

After several minutes of packing, my suitcases are completely full. It took a while to seal it with the zipper which I find strange since I didn't pack that much--at least I think I didn't. Maybe there will be a lot of girls there, the types who like to play video games and watch cheesy romance movies. Once I thought I had everything that I needed I went to the top of the stairs and slid my suitcase to the bottom of the staircase. I knew it landed when I heard a loud "THUD!" Instead of me walking down like a normal person (which im not so...) I go to the railing and put my bottom on it and slid down. When I was almost at the bottom I lost my balance and ended up face planting to the cold hard tile floor "Ouch!" I screamed and when I looked up I saw the black dress up shoes of my friendly butler Karuma. He then looked down at me and helped me up, as I brushed myself off he said sarcastically "Well that was a smart idea!" I look at him with a death stare.
"Yup, I'm a genius!", I said with a small chuckle.
"Hey Karuma? Why is father acting so strange?".
"He's a busy man Doku, there's a lot he needs to process right now and it's better that we do the best we can to cooperate with him". His deep accent echoes in my ears as he places his hands on my shoulders and walks away. I skipped over to my father's study to find him with his old reading glasses and him digging through his paper work.
"Well father, I think I would be off now, Karuma is waiting for me in the car." He was startled when I started talking but then looks at me with a worried expression on his face "Yes...Yes...Sorry I got caught up in work!" He got up and walked to me.
"I will very much miss you Doku...but this is for the best, for all of us!" I look into his eyes to see them water up, almost shedding a tear. I felt bad so I pulled him for a big hug.
"It's alright father, I will see you again." He pulls away and looks at me and says while wiping a tear .
"I know...I know I'm just being a big baby!" We then start to chuckle and start walking to the door. Once we opened the door it was very gloomy outside which is odd cause it was very sunny in the morning! I head towards the car as Karuma stuffs my luggages in the trunk. I give my father one last hug before stepping into the passenger seat.
"Please drive safely Karuma, thank you, and be sure to thank him and his wife when you arrive."
"I will sir". He shakes my father's hand and steps into the car to start the ignition. Well, no turning back now, we slowly pull out the parking space and onto the road. This is going to be a long drive.
