A booming knock pattered on the old fashioned doors of Sohma Head, the sickened man grunts in response as for a sign of entry. Soon enough Hatori appeared behind the door as usual with his normal black demeanour. Unfortunately for the doctor, Akito was not in the best of moods so his rudeness was more apparent than typically.
"What do you want?" He demands, causing himself a mind blowing headache.
Damn these headaches... he thought aloud.
Hatori inhales unnoticeable, "the new employee is here"

———————————————————
Oh, how would I possibly forget about my new toy? A new worker so the serving his god is like a walk into the park; pathetic. However I can't help but love the way he just stands there so obediently like a puppet (a man without a soul), my precious mannequin.
"Bring her to me" I wave my hands away as he leaves.
I couldn't help but utter a menacing bubble of laughter "Ahh, a new playmate isn't that refreshing"
I can't await the day she'll be shattered like Kana, were reality will be an emotion to harsh go bare - I'll see her in total melancholy and anguish. Oh the bitterness of dull eyes as they twitch fearfully; I could eat that feeling for breakfast.

Eventually Hatori opened the door again, leading in a raven haired girl with enchanting golden orbs. Akito and Akiko's eyes met each others curious gazes, instantly a connection beyond human knowledge was recognised to exist inside their souls. A moment felt like an eternity that they always wanted.
"Hi I'm Akiko Tachibana but you can call me Aki or something else" She starts confidently., her smile never faltering like the young man had wished.
He was astonished that the girl had the nerve to talk before himself, truthfully he was slightly impressed. However, Akito's pride wasn't impressed but the feeble acts of the foolish woman, "tch, who gave you the permission to talk?"
Even though he glared with all his might, Akiko doesn't seem fazed at all. Any normal person would be practically in tears, begging for salvation. Though her eyes hinted curiosity and eagerness unlike most,
"With all due respect Mr Sohma, you didn't mention of this rule when I arrived"
Akito could definitely sense a sprinkle of sassiness and if he wasn't mistaken, she had also rolled her eyes to the side.

————————————————————
That peasant dare to roll her eyes at me?! Who does she think she is, a god? Certainly not! What a stupid girl, she must have a death wish.
"Akito I don't think she meant harm" Hatori protested, clearly aware of my burning anger - yet he chooses to side with this stranger!
"Shut up!" I scream as I launch the closest flower vase towards the woman.
Incidentally, she catches the vase quite flawlessly, placing it down in a corner.
"I'd say that's that's quite violent of you sir. I introduce myself and I receive a vase to my face? At young age, I believe we were all thought about manners right?" Her hands hang near her mouth in surprise her her tone was most definitely mocking me.

I felt like a wild animal being tamed for the first time. Tachibana's slight scolding was pride breaking yet rather warm for some reason. When was the last time I was held accountable for my own actions? It's weird. I break her into bite size pieces but I also want to her to stay beside me and perhaps... satisfy my emptiness.
"Akito is she acceptable?" Hatori asks attentively.
"Yes" I simply say waving him off out of the room.
"You stay" I point directly at her, hoping to send shivers down her spine.
This of course cause the little seahorse to halt in his tracks worriedly, I scowl as he finally leaves.
"May I wonder why I'm still here sir?" She questions her.
I gesture her to sit down, "is it a crime wanting to know about my new employee? Call me Akito, sir makes me feel old"
Little does she know that I already know about her, every employee goes through a background check before working for me.
She's certainly interesting, nonetheless she is still just a human.
Perhaps I'll reconsider my master plan...
