Hitomi wrapped her arms around Rika as a group of student stepped into the lift. They were rather rowdy and laughed boisterously. But a cold glare from Hitomi shut them up quick and sent them out of the lift on the 5th floor.
Hey, I've done that. :rockon:



Quote
Ayaka and I ate before leaving…” Ayumi replied, while avoiding having to look at either of them.

“You and Ayaka? What about Mai?”

“Mai? Oh… Don’t mind her… she’s fine…” Ayumi struggled to keep a laugh from bursting out of her mouth. She recalled how she and Ayaka half-carried, half-dragged Mai out of the flat, down the elevator and into Ayaka’s car. Waking her to the sound of Rika and Hitomi’s early morning activity would not be good for any of them.
Oh, Ayaka and Shiba-chan are SO dead if Mai finds out what she missed out on.
:on lol:



Quote
Hitomi kissed Rika goodbye before helping her board Ayumi’s car.

“Oi~, You better take good care of my Rika, Ayumi… or else…”
She'll get so much extra work her grandkids will have to come in and help finish it off, right? :lol:

hmm I hope they make it through the day so they can come home together and snuggle. And Yoshi you better fix your mistake!
amen.

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rika looked back as the car slowly drove out the basement parking. Hitomi was right behind them. Seeing Rika looking her way, Hitomi flashed her bright lights. Rika waved back enthusiastically and blew her To-chan a kiss.

Ayumi sped up as soon as they were out in broad daylight, breaking the moment of parting non-verbal signal-communication between the couple.

"You know you're gonna get in trouble for doing that~..." Rika said as she slapped Ayumi on the arm.

Ayumi rolled her eyes at her lovestruck friends. "Can't you guys get enough of each other?! You two have already had a lot of each other this morning... Too much if you ask me..."

"What?"

"Don't even try denying it Rika... WE HEARD YOU... and we didn't even have to move closer to your room..." Ayumi watched Rika from the corner of her eye.

Rika, although blushing, denied the allegation. "I still don't know what you're talking about..." She turned her attention to the view outside, the city slowly coming to life.

"I told you, not to even try denying it... WE KNOW..." Ayumi firmly said. "You're lucky Mai was too wasted... we had to carry her out of your flat, down and into Ayaka's car. You have no idea how heavy that woman is... And I can't imagine the ruckus she'd have made had she woken up in your place..."

After a few moments of silence, Ayumi chuckled as she shifted gears. "Ayaka and I were both like, 'finally... I thought this would never happen'"

The two friends suddenly bursted out in laughter.

"So how was it?" Ayumi poked Rika's side with her elbow.

"Why should I tell you?"

"Because I'm your best friend!"

"Not reason enough..." Rika replied tunefully.

"Hah! I bet you can't tell me 'cause you passed out right in the middle of it so you have nothing to say!"


"You, can't make me tell you, no matter what you say..."

"No matter what I say?"

"No matter what you say."

With an evil grin, she retorted. "Even if I tell your prince how muchimuchi you were before? I can even show her a picture of you... back then..."

"Don't!" Rika didn't like how she looked back then and didn't want anybody in the now to see. Other than Ayumi, there's only one person who said she likes Rika for being muchimuchi. "Fine. I'll tell you."

"Hah! I knew you would fold!"

"It's not nice playing on people's weaknesses like that."

"Well, if it gets me the juicy details on your little tryst this morning, send me to hell." Ayumi laughed evilly, this was one of those rare occassions that she can get Rika under her thumb.

Rika sighed heavily. "Can't we talk about it on the way home later?"

Ayumi turned to her friend with a questioning look but got the idea as soon as she saw Rika biting her lip. "Sure... I don't mind you heating up for her later..."

"That's not what I meant!"

"Sure, sure... whatever..."

its fun to wait, ne~?

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Rika and Ayumi entered the hospital room after being summoned in by Eula. The patient's mother was alone in keeping the night watch as usual.

"O, Rika..." Eula looked at Ayumi, and in a rather awkward way, asked Rika of her. "May kasama ka pala?" (Oh, Rika... You brought someone with you?"

"Opo, Tita, si Ayumi po, bestfriend ko..." (Yes, tita, this is Ayumi, she's my bestfriend)

"Ah... Nice to meet you, iha..." Eula smiled at Ayumi. "Matagal na ba kayong magkakilala ng pamangkin ko?" (Have you been friends for a long time?)

Ayumi didn't understand a word. Apparently, Eula has mistaken her for a local.

"Tita, Hapon din po siya... Bata pa lang po kami, magkaibigan na kami... Nagkita lang uli kami dahil nagtatrabaho siya sa kumpanya ni Hitomi..." (Tita, she's Japanese too... We've been friends since we were kids... We just saw each other again because she's working for Hitomi's company...)

"A... Kaya naman pala... pero Rika... dahil nabanggit mo na din yang si Hitomi... Alam na ba ng tita Mayumi mo 'yan? Alam mo namang ayokong pangunahan ka sa mga ganyan kaya hindi ko sinasabi sa kanya ang tungkol sa inyo..." (A... that's how... .... but Rika... since you've mentioned Hitomi... Does your tita Mayumi know about the two of you? You know I wouldn't want to do things ahead of you that's why I don't talk to her about you...)

"Tita..."

"Alam mo naman na Iglesia* ang nanay* mo... Di siya papayag d'yan pag nalaman niya..." (You know that she's a member of Iglesia... She won't approve of this when she finds out...)

Ayumi sat on the side, listening to how Eula spoke. Although she didn't understand a word, given the tone and the mention of her big boss' name, Ayumi felt that Eula wasn't a big IshiYoshi fan.

"Tita... please, huwag n'yo nang sabihin kay Auntie Mayumi..." (Tita, please, don't tell her...)

"Kita mo nga yan? Hindi mo man lang kayang panindigan sa madrasta mo yang pinasok mo... Ewan ko sa'yong bata ka... hindi kita maintindihan..." (See? you can't even commit to that relationship in the face of your stepmother... I don't know with you, I don't get you...)

Rika looked down at the floor, she decided to stop listening to the litany of Eula as she knew the woman didn't know everything that had happened between Mayumi and her. She kept silent, so not to ruin the beautiful morning her To-chan made for her with pointless debates.

"O, siya, siya... aalis na ako... Mahuhuli pa ako sa trabaho niyan..." (Well, then, I'm leaving for work... I might get there late...)

WTF, May's in Iglesia? Oh that's just what we DON'T need right now, a bunch of self-serving, closed-minded people who think that their way of interpreting the bible is the only way to do it and that all other religions (Christian or otherwise) are wrong. :banghead:

Iglesia=a religion founded in the Philippines, even more strict on homosexual relationships
You want to talk about strict? Iglesia wedding receptions are always done as a luncheon instead of as a dinner & dance like how they're usually done. Wanna know why? It's because Iglesia forbids any and all forms of dancing (even ballroom and traditional Filipino folk dances) because they believe that it's sinful because moving your body like that is too much like sex. Now while I get why they would categorize club dancing (bumpin' and grindin') like that, can someone tell how ballroom/folk dancing is supposed to be perverse?  Anyway, no point in having the reception be a "dinner & dance" when you're not allowed to dance. 

EDIT: Had to add this.  :thumbdown:

no, technically, she doesn't... but due to the "accident" she has masterminded, she had made a pretext to keep Rika on coming back to a place within the reach of her sharp, nasty, and damn dirty claws...

so... how come Mayumi ain't trying to steal Rika? You'd think she'd be doing all she could or something...
ahh... yes... that horrendous woman... she is... ... she is... ... :twisted: ... i just haven't said anything about it yet...

i'm not so worried about that since she's a damn hypocrite, trying to sell her stepdaughter... but mayumi's over-reaction to IshiYoshi-love is bothering me...  thanks for that elaboration on the Iglesia...

i just submitted chapter 2 of my thesis, the analysis of the music of my band... yes, a part of my thesis is about my band... talk about self-pimpage, right?

anyway... until my semestral break sets in, i'm still sunk with other schoolwork that i set aside to focus on the damn thesis so i still can't update as much as i used to... i'm still rewiring my brain so... patience please... more word salad coming right up...

to end the month right...

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hitomi was warmly greeted by the receptionist as she walked through the main lobby of the office building.  "Good morning, President Yoshizawa. Attorney Konno and Murata are online and they are waiting for you."

"Thank you. Good morning to you too" Hitomi replied with a smile. "Please tell Vice President Kimura to prepare some coffee for me."

The receptionist was surprised by the reciprocation of her daily gesture. It was the first time that Hitomi had greeted her and with a smile too. It was a priceless moment for her. She immediately pressed a button on the intercom. "V.P, Kimura, the president wants her coffee..."

She proceeded to the elevator. All she saw were the scalps of the balding men who bowed down to greet her. Some who were feeling clever greeted her in Japanese. All were surprised when she returned their greetings whether in English or Japanese. The doors closed as slowly as they opened, leaving the employees dumbfounded, watching them close

Hitomi looked at her reflection on the shiny elevator doors. Why is Murata online too? I told Konno to leave them out of this...

Her thoughts turned to what she imagined was awaiting her in the top floor of the building. She could hear Ayaka and Mai’s voices in her head, interrogating her on what went on this morning. She braced herself for the worst as the doors opened revealing and empty hallway. Neither of her friends were there even though the receptionist had surely told Ayaka that she was on her way up.

Hitomi headed to the office, deciding that it was best that they weren’t being busybodies this morning. A coffee cup with freshly brewed coffee waited on the tray beside a cinnamon roll and a note from Ayaka. “You owe me, Yoshiko. Big time.”

The note elicited a smile from Hitomi. Ayaka has saved her again.

But now to more urgent matters…

Hitomi took her seat and turned her monitor on. As expected, the lawyers of both Yoshizawa and Matsuura corporations were waiting for her.

The two bowed to greet the new comer. “Yoshizawa-san… Ohayou.” 

“Ohayou, Konno, Murata-san,” Hitomi greeted back, looking at Konno, waiting for an explanation.

Konno understood immediately the look from her boss. “We realized that we might have a problem.”

“A problem?”

“I cannot represent Ishikawa-san on the negotiation tables…”

At hearing Konno say the words, Hitomi realized the major flaw in their initial plans. “They may not know that Yoshizawa-group is involved…”

“Yes. That is why I have asked for the help of Murata-san. Because the investment was made to Matsuura, she has an excuse to handle this.”

“I understand…” Hitomi clasped her hands together and placed them on the desk. “… have you contacted the lawyers of the companies involved?”

“Yes… many of them are determined to press charges…”

Murata brought out some folders, the drafted complaints from different companies. “Surprisingly, some of them still don’t know that Ishikawa-san is in the Philippines. All they know is that she is overseas. The Philippines and Japan do not have any extradition treatise so as long as she’s there, they can’t really touch her legally…”

“Thank you, Murata-san, for doing all this… You will be compensated accordingly…” Hitomi brought out her checkbook and a pen. Just before she could set the pen on the check, the lawyer interrupted her. “Yoshizawa-san, do that only after all this is over. You might need that money elsewhere. Consider this some sort of making amends from me for Ishikawa-san. Hopefully I will not fail her unlike them

“Thank you. If only you had been a lawyer all those years ago… Anyway, negotiate with all of them. Make the most economically sane solution. If worse comes to worst, contact me right away.”

Yossi even makes the receptionist swoon? :P



Quote
Hitomi looked at her reflection on the shiny elevator doors. Why is Murata online too? I told Konno to leave them out of this...
Something tells me Aya told her not to take no for an answer.



Quote
She could hear Ayaka and Mai’s voices in her head, interrogating her on what went on this morning. She braced herself for the worst as the doors opened revealing and empty hallway. Neither of her friends were there even though the receptionist had surely told Ayaka that she was on her way up.

Hitomi headed to the office, deciding that it was best that they weren’t being busybodies this morning. A coffee cup with freshly brewed coffee waited on the tray beside a cinnamon roll and a note from Ayaka. “You owe me, Yoshiko. Big time.”

The note elicited a smile from Hitomi. Ayaka has saved her again.

But now to more urgent matters…
Yeah, right now there are more important things that Yossi needs to deal with. Mai and Ayaka can do their interrogation afterwards. :D



Quote
Konno understood immediately the look from her boss. “We realized that we might have a problem.”

“A problem?”

“I cannot represent Ishikawa-san on the negotiation tables…”

At hearing Konno say the words, Hitomi realized the major flaw in their initial plans. “They may not know that Yoshizawa-group is involved…”

“Yes. That is why I have asked for the help of Murata-san. Because the investment was made to Matsuura, she has an excuse to handle this.”
Ah, the problem is because of the fact that the Ishikawa family (in this case, Rika) is still supposed to owe money to the creditors of CorPrint when it went under. It was somewhat understandable that she wouldn't be able to pay them off when the impression was that she and her family were broke. However, here she comes making a huge investment in Yossi's company, obviously questions are going to be asked regarding where she got the money from and why it hadn't been used to pay off the family debts. The fact that she's also "an employee" for Yossi would make Konkon's representing her a conflict of interest, which would not give a good impression at the impending negotiations.

Smart move there in getting Murata's help, Konkon. :thumbsup

also the sudden surfacing of that massive amount of wealth would disprove her father's bankruptcy claim...lawsuits abound...

I did legal studies for a year and I was like first in class so yeah... kinda got annoyed for a sec there... hehehe sorry.. but yeah, treaties... My whole head turned red just now lol. But yeah, I got mighty pissed off when I saw that for-lack-of-a-better-word type-o.
i was planning to go into law school after grad before but after meeting with some political science majors, i've decided that it isn't the place for me... i'd rather be a philosopher of law... i used to be an almost lawyer too... but the law fails...

no doubt...

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Joseph arrived an hour after Eula left. He got stuck in traffic due to an accident involving a jeepney and a truck. As soon as he entered the room, he noticed something different with Rika. "Rika... Nandito ka na pala..." (Rika... You're here...)

"Jo, Ayumi's here too..."

Joseph quickly apologized after realizing that he had spoken in Filipino. "Oh, sorry... Good morning, Ayumi."

Ayumi simply smiled at Jo as she set up her computer.

Joseph settled on the chair across Rika's which was beside the bed. The sunlight that flowed into the room from the window highlighted Rika's features. "Parang may iba sa'yo ngayon..."

"Jo." Rika pointed at her bestfriend who wasn't really minding the local-language-driven conversation between the two.

"Sorry... Uh... You look different today, Rika..."

"... Eh?"

"I'm not sure... hmm... Basta, blooming ka ngayon..." Joseph complimented Rika.

The word 'blooming' made Ayumi snicker. boy, you have no idea...

Rika threw a sharp glance at Ayumi. The gesture only made Ayumi smirk.

Joseph felt awkward at the silent exchange between the two. "Ah~... Rika you want something to eat?"

"Uhm... you don't have to go out to buy food... Ayumi brought some food for us..."

Still with the smirk on her face, Ayumi tunefully gave credit to Hitomi. "Actually, Yocchan told me to bring food for Rika wherever we go..." She naughtily looked at Rika "President Yoshizawa doesn't want her baby to get hungry..."

Joseph felt like a piano came crashing down from the ceiling. *Puta, nananadya ba 'to? (*expletive, is she saying these things on purpose?) With a forced smile, he looked at Ayumi as if he did not get what she was hinting at. "Ah.... I just asked because I'm going out for a while... I need to place a call..."

"Why do you have to go out? There's a phone right here." Rika pointed at the phone on the small table. Obviously, she was oblivious to the covert conversation between Jo and Ayumi.

"Ah... uhm..." Joseph scavenged in his head for any excuse. After that little exchange with Ayumi, he really just wanted to get out of the room. "It's about the board exams... it might be a long conversation... I don't want to... to... uh... to... *make harang... the incoming phone calls"

"Oh, okay..."

*to block

====

"May, si Baldo naiinip na..." (May, Baldo's getting impatient)...Dan whispered to Mayumi, nervous.

"Sandali lang! Kung sana ganung kadali na maabutang mag-isa yang putang bata na yan, e..." (Wait! If only it was that easy to get that slut of a girl alone...)

"Mahigit isang linggo na tayo dito nag-iintay..." (We've been waiting for more than a week already...)

"Pag naka-tsamba tayo, tuloy-tuloy na... konting pasensya na lang... nakaplano na ang lahat..." (When we get our chance, everything will follow smoothly... just a little patience... I have everything planned out...)
