CHAPTER 15

Yuzu ran all the way to Meis grandfathers mansion she knew that Mei would have to be there. But as soon as she reached the front gates the maid's wouldn't let her in.
"I know Meis in there, I need to see her!" Yuzu demanded.
The maid could see the determination in Yuzu's eyes before she spoke.
"I'm sorry, but we have been given strict orders from The Chairman to not let anyone into the mansion"

Yuzu let out a sigh, she felt like she wanted to scream in frustration and cry at the same time, but she would never give up that easy especially when it came to Mei.

Mei kicked the door for the 10th time. "Let me out now!" Mei yelled as she banged her fists against the large wooden oak door.
Tears were falling and hitting the ground as there was only one thought running through her mind.
"Yuzu" Mei spoke to herself as she slowly slid to the ground and sat on her knees.

"I'm sorry young miss, but your grandfather gave specific instructions"
Mei knew that the maid was only doing as she was told, she knew that feeling all too well as she didn't even bother to say anything back.

Yuzu went to make her way around to the back of the mansion when she felt a hand on her shoulder.
"Yuzu, what are you doing?"
Yuzu turned around to see her mum looking at her with concern in her eyes.
"I'm going to get Mei, I know she's in there"
Ume placed a hand on each of Yuzu's shoulders as she spoke calmly to her daughter.
"Harumi told me that you might be here, I don't know exactly whats going on but iv'e already rung Sho but he wont be back for another day, lets wait till he gets back"

Yuzu turned back to look at the mansion then back at her mother. She knew that Ume was right, she had no chance at all at getting into that mansion without Sho.
She slowly nodded her head in defeat as she started to follow her mum back home.
As they walked around the corner a black limo pulled up Orihima, Harumi, Himeko, Izumi, Soma and Setsuna all jumped out of the limo.

"What are you guys doing here?" Yuzu spoke but she couldn't hide the smile forming on her face.
Harumi gave Yuzu a tight hug as she spoke.
"Dont worry we have a plan Yuzucchi"

Mei jolted up as she heard the sound of her grandfathers voice echo through the large mansion.
After a couple of seconds the door opened and her grandfather was standing there looking straight at her as he spoke.
"Mei, we need to talk"
Mei turned her back to him as she spoke.
"I want to talk to Yuzu first, I need to tell her where I am"

His eyes widened as he looked at the back of his grand daughter, this was the second time she answered back to him and he knew it was because of a certain blonde.
He knew that Mei would be stubborn about this, she is a Aihara after all.
He gritted his teeth before he spoke again, with annoyance in his voice.
"No, I want to talk with you first"

Mei turned around to face her grandfather, there was so much that she wanted to say to him. As soon as she turned her eyes went wide, the expression he had on his face was sad and lonely. Mei felt a stab of guilt come over her as she looked at the man that looked after her when her father left.

She knew that deep down he would never hurt her intentionally, she closed her eyes and took a breath before she opened them and looked straight into the same eyes as her own before she spoke.
"Alright Grandfather"

She followed him down into the large lounge room, the maids were already there pouring tea for the pair.
Mei sat across from her Grandfather, after they both took a couple of sips from their cups he spoke first.
"Mei, I need you to understand something"
He opened what looked like an extremely old envelope that had a letter inside, he handed it to Mei before he spoke.
"Please read this"

Mei grabbed the old piece of paper, the handwriting was immaculate, she quietly read it herself.
