Alright here's the part everyone is waiting for
Chapter 13Date: March 15
Time: 10:00 pmThat night, Risa walked into the pub with Miyabi, Airi and Risako searching for Maimi. ~BUZZ BUZZ~
At the far corner Risa looked up to see Maimi grinning at her as she led her group to Maimi’s table “Hey” everyone looked up and was surprised to see Risa. “Sorry we’re late this is…”
“Suzuki Airi, nice seeing you again” Maimi shook Airi’s hand
“Likewise, didn’t know you knew my sister”
“Sister?!” Maimi and Saki spluttered out
“Yeah, and this is my girlfriend Sugaya Risako and this is Natsuyaki Miyabi, our cousin”
“Nice seeing you again, this is a small world isn’t it?” Saki shook Miyabi’s hand and winked at her
“It is! Didn’t think that these things would happen in reality”
“Wait so you girls know each other?” Risa looked at them in bewilderment
“Sis, we met these girls at the supermarket the other day”
“USO! USO! USO! Hontou??? Well just in case this is Yajima Maimi”
“And these here are Shimizu Saki, Tanaka Reina, her girlfriend Kamei Eri and Takahashi Ai” the rest all waved ‘hi’ before scooting over for the new arrivals
Throughout the night the girls got to know each other from telling each other their occupations to ratting each other of their embarrassing moments. Airi couldn’t help but scan her surroundings, Saki talking away with Miyabi
‘There is definitely something there’ and then Risa talking attentively with Ai
‘Ahh so that is sis’s type’“Hey senior detective” Maimi had just come back from the washroom and sat down beside Airi “I think your girlfriend has had enough for the night”
Airi turned to see Risako sleeping beside her “apparently she has. Thank you for the coffee the other day”
“No problem, er…question… your sister single?”
“Yes at the moment but after tonight maybe not” Maimi looked at Airi in confusion so Airi pointed to where Risa and Ai were talking
Maimi’s facial expression faltered a bit but continued to smile “I see, so you think she’s interested in our Ai-chan?”
“I believe so” Airi reverted her gaze away from Risa to Maimi who look like she was deep in thought “Is something wrong Yajima-san?”
“No no I was thinking about work things Suzuki-san. Um…I never would’ve thought you would be a detective” diverted Maimi
‘All my chances gone…..’“Oh? Why is that?”
“Well looking between you and Natsuyaki-san, you both didn’t look like you guys work together” Airi looked at Miyabi in her usual baggy jeans and casual clothing compared to her own, white dress shirt and dress pants with a blazer
“I think I understand what you mean, but I guess I like to keep a certain level of professionalism in my work”
“I know what you mean, the girls say I am too much of a picky person when it comes to professionalism. I wouldn’t allow them to call me by my first name or any nicknames when we are working, even if it is after hours and we live together too”
“Really?! Well I don’t go that far but then again you are in the business field so I guess it is understandable”
“How is it being a detective?”
“Why do you ask?”
“Well at one point in time when I was younger I would wonder what it would be like to be a firefighter or a detective or a doctor”
“Ambitious weren’t we?” teased Airi “but seriously it can be nerve wrecking at times”
“Because of…”
“Well we just had to pull 2 all-nighters on a case and it took all the brain power we had”
“Ohhhh! It must’ve been exciting” Maimi curled her hands in fists waving them in the air in excitement
“Haha I think I understand why ane says you remind her of me”
Maimi’s smile faltered “Huh? What do you mean?”
‘Is that why I don’t even stand a chance because I remind her of a sister?’“Well today when she said she was meeting a girl, I thought it was her girlfriend but she said it wasn’t, that you weren’t her type and that you remind her of me. Probably because we get a little giddy when we are interested in something and it looks like a child haha” Airi responded without looking at Maimi
“I see”
'Great! She doesn’t see me in that way, she sees me like she sees Suzuki-san’ “Hey I just realized you guys have different last names, why is that?”
“Oh because we are step-sisters, my dad married her mother”
“No wonder you guys don’t look alike at all. Sorry about Saki and my outburst at that hehe”
“Haha no worries, you guys aren’t the first”
“Whew! That’s a relief otherwise Saki and I would have to get our eyes checked”
“Haha! So Shimizu-san and you are the heirs of one of the biggest companies around, wow, it must be great living it large”
“Not really actually, yeah to the world we may seem like the luckiest people alive but between Saki and I we are restricted from doing a lot of things because family reputation is on the line or we aren’t allowed to do what we want”
“Wow that sounds tougher than I’d imagine”
“We also have to carry on the family business so its like we had to mature more quickly so that the parents can pass it on after we’ve gained enough experience in the field”
“Geez, they didn’t let you even enjoy a kid’s life did they?”
“The good thing is that I grew up with Saki so at least I wasn’t alone”
“So you guys must feel like sisters then eh?”
“In a way, yes, you can see it like that, it gets freaky though when we both know what each other is thinking at times brrrr!” Maimi brushed her arms as if she was cold
“Haha really? You can figure Shimizu-san? Okay well what do you think about those 2?” Airi pointed to where Saki and Miyabi were having their own private conversation
“Totally sensing the sexual tension”
“Same here” Maimi high-fived Airi
******************************
On Saki and Miyabi’s side“So have long have you been a detective?”
“Well I graduated the same time as Airin so about 3-4 years now I think”
“Was it something you always wanted to do?”
“Hell yeah!!! I was never the very lady-like person, I liked being comfortable so naturally the career path drew me in even more”
Saki eyed Miyabi’s attire “I can tell, makes you give off a cool, don’t-mess-with-me aura”
“I almost didn’t recognize you though because the first time I saw you, you were decked out in an expensive suit whereas today” Miyabi gave a low whistle “you look ready to kill”
Saki blushed “Thank you, you like what you see?”
“Definitely liking it and the thing is in both attires, you were stunning”
“Why thank you!!!” Saki moved her hand and laid it on Miyabi’s thigh “such a charmer”
“Shimizu-san,.... would you be interested in grabbing dinner, movie and coffee sometime?”
Saki grinned “Sure, sounds…” Saki leaned towards Miyabi and whispered in a low husky voice “…fun”
********
Ai and Risa’s side“Thank you for your concern Niigaki-san”
“No problem. How is it working for Yajima-san and Shimizu-san? Yajima-san gives me the impression that she’s young and free spirited, very cute, so it must be easy and fun working with her”
“Haha Maimi is actually only like that when she is away from the office. She is very professional when in the office, no direct name calling if we are in the office”
“Hmmm now she sounds a little like Airin, no wonder she laid a strong first impression”
“I must tell Maimi that her reputation is lowering”
“Don’t do it Ai-chan!” Reina grabbed hold of Ai’s shoulder “you do it and she’ll be harsher at work. Please don’t make things more difficult than it already is” Reina put her hands together begging Ai
“Haha okay okay I won’t”
“Wow is she really that different between work and home?”
Reina and Eri nodded furiously “No you guys are exaggerating, it’s only because you guys are all about fun” Ai explained earning her a glare from both the turtle and kitty cat. “It’s understandable, at least to me, that Maimi and Saki has a lot on their shoulders being heirs of one of the biggest companies around”
“Awww you’re so understanding. They are lucky to have you as their friend and secretary” gushed Risa
Ai blushed and shook her head “No no, they actually aren’t the troublesome ones”
“Oh so who are or is?” Ai looked at Reina and Eri, who at that moment were pretending to talk about something “I see, that’s amazing how those 2 are still so young but so mature”
“Suzuki-san looks mature too for her age, your parents did great jobs in raising you two”
“Actually Risa-ane raised me, our parents died in a car accident” they turned to see Airi and Maimi joining in their conversation, drinks in hand
“Oh sorry!”
“No worries, my ane is the greatest” Airi exclaimed as she wrapped her arms around Risa’s neck and placed her chin on Risa’s shoulders
“So the props goes to you for raising Suzuki-san well” praised Ai-chan as she lifted her glass for Risa to knock her own with
Risa shook her head but did share a drink with Ai “Don’t listen to Airin, this little one matured at a young age on her own. I was surprised by it myself”
“Ane, Rii-chan is asleep now so I think I should get her home”
“Actually I think we’re all about done so we can get the bill and go” indicated Maimi
“Thanks Yajima-san” Airi gave Maimi a sincere ‘thank you’ look before Maimi left to get the bill. Airi turned to face Miyabi who was still absorbed in her conversation with Saki “Miya hate to break it to you, but we have to go so why don’t you guys exchange numbers and finish the conversation next time”
Miyabi glared at Airi and blushed in embarrassment when she made eye contact with Saki “Um so yeah let’s finish this next time, can I get your number for our date?” Miyabi scratched the back of her neck
“Natsyaki-san, you’re too easy to tease! Sure here give me your phone” Miyabi’s face lit up as she quickly pulled out her cell for Saki
“Okay guys, let’s go” Maimi came back and grabbed her purse
“Woah! Wait a minute! Where’s the bill?” Airi asked as Risa and Miyabi looked at Maimi as well
Ai, Saki, Eri and Reina grinned amongst each other. Ai placed a hand on Risa’s shoulder as Saki did the same to Miyabi “One of the great benefits of chilling with Maimi and Saki is that they always get the bill” Reina explained
“No no you can’t do that” Risa protested as Airi and Miyabi nodded their heads in agreement
“She just did and besides this will give us more reasons for calling you guys out for drinks” Eri patted Risa on the back and walked towards the exit with Reina hand in hand
“You’d want that wouldn’t you?” Saki asked teasingly to Miyabi before patting her on the back lightly and walking off
Ai walked to where Maimi was waiting “She won’t take your money and technically Suzuki-san, the amount is nothing to be considered bribery so I don’t see why you can’t accept Maimi’s offer” grinned Ai as she walked off following Maimi
‘She wants to see me again!!! I got her number and I got a date!!!!’ thought Miyabi totally out of focus after Saki patted her on the back
‘She’s so unpredictable! That’s the second time she did that!! It makes her….intriguing’ thought Airi as she walked over to Risako to wake her up “Rii-chan….Rii-chan time to go home”
“ZZZ What? Huh? Time to go home? Okay” Risako got up groggily with the help of Airi as they walked towards the exit
“USO!!!! Did they just…huh? Yajima-san definitely is generous and weird eh Miya?” Silence. Risa looked at the goofy grinning Miyabi “Miya!!!! Drool about her at home!!! Let’s go!!!”
Miyabi snapped out of her thoughts “I was not drooling!!!” as she ran after Risa
