I wouldn’t mind getting arrested everyday by you.” Takamina flirted.
“Shut up, this is a place of courteousness. Show some respect!” Officer Maeda smacks the paper onto the desk startling the play girl.
“What did I do wrong?” Takamina smirked.
Atsuko rolled her eyes. “First of all you drove without a Japanese driver license and second you just did a DUI!” She yelled.
“Are you always this mean? I bet you there’s a sweet side to you somewhere in there.” Takamina said trying to change the subject.
“Ugh… Anyway, is that your girlfriend out there?”
“No. Actually I just met her. It’s nothing serious, why? Are you interested in me?” Takamina chuckled.
“Don’t be so full of yourself. I’m just doing my job.”
“How about you not tell anyone about this, especially my mom. Since you say this is a place of courteousness I will give you courtesy money, lots of it.
“Oh, so you’re just another rich and spoiled brat from America. You think you can just buy your way out of the law. Well think again!”
“Come on. Just let me go, so that way you and I can go on our first date.”
“Ha! Date? People like me wouldn’t dare date your kind!”
“Why not? I’m rich, powerful, and good looking. What’s there not to like?”
“You just don’t get it do you? You have never worked a day in your life. Other people work hard just to have money in their pockets and you...you just get everything handed down to you. No one will ever respect a person like you. Miichan! Please escort this little f*ck into the cell.”
“What!? where are you taking me!?” Takamina screamed showing her terrified face while being dragged away.
Takamina was in the jail for a day and half. Her mother was notify by the authority and bought out a bond for her daughter.
Next day Atsuko was out on her day off. Suddenly she had a phone call while she was at the arcade. “Moshi Moshi” she answered the phone.
“Ah Atsuko, can you come in today to take care of the DUI case? I have something important to do. Can you please cover for me?”
“Yuki, I can’t I have my sister with me. Its sister day today and you know how that goes.”
“Please just this once, I promise I’ll make it up to you. Please, please please..” Yuki begged.
“Oh, alright!” She gave in and sighs.
In the office, Atsuko was waiting for Takamina to come in. Having no one to baby sit for her, she had to bring her little sister into work with her. The girl is about 6 years old and resembles Atsuko a lot. Basically she’s a mini version of her. 1 minute of waiting, Takamina finally entered the room.
Right away Takamina notices the little girl. “Ah! Kawaiiiii ne.” Takamina shouted. The little girl was shy so she just giggled covering her blushing face.
“Is that your daughter?” Takamina asked Atsuko.
“None of your business! We’re here to talk about the regulations and consequences.”
“Wow, you look just like your mother, Say…what is your name cutie?” Takamina asked the girl while pinching her small cheeks.
“Auntie, she’s not my mom, she’s my Oneesan.” She chuckled. And my name is A—“Before the little girl can finish answering the question, she was cut off by Atsuko.
“What did I tell you about not talking to strangers? Hmm?”
“But Oneesan, you’re talking to her, why can’t I?”
“Ahh kawaiiiii and smart!” Takamina stated again, while being playful with the little girl.
Takamina earned a smile from Atsuko, seeing that Takamina actually is sort of a good person.
“Ami..go play over there while we talk okay? After this we’ll go get some icecream.”
“Haii!!” Ami immediately answered.
“Anyways… If you want to stay in Japan you’ll have to pay a fine and take traffic lessons for a year.”
“What!? Are you serious…I know how all of it works already! I don’t need it.”
“Rules are rules. You’re lucky enough that I didn’t deport you back.”
“Ah, so that means I get to see your face more often.” Takamina smiled
*RING RING RING* a phone called interrupted the two.
“Hello? Okay hold on one second. You have a phone call Takahashi; I’ll step out so you can talk.”
“He-he-hello.” Takamina stuttered.
“Minami! How dare you!?! I can’t believe it’s only your second day there and you’re already causing trouble!”
“But mom…”
“No buts! I’m cutting off your all your funds. I bought you a plane ticket back to the U.S so pack up your things!!! You’re coming home!”
“NO! I like it here… I want to stay here.”
“I don’t care what you say! You’re coming back home!!!” Her mom screamed and hung up the phone.
“No more money?” Takamina said falling back onto her chair sighing.
Atsuko walks back into the office. “Well you can be on your way now, since I informed you of everything already.”
“Eh..Before I go, Can I have your number?” Takamina pulled out a notepad from the folder of documents Atsuko handed to her earlier. “Here” She handed the notepad.
“For what?” Atsuko asked annoyed.
“So I can take you out on a date sometime.”
“Dream on. I don’t date girls and it will never happen between us, now get out!” She screamed.
Takamina again put the paper in front of Atsuko before leaving. Atsuko smacked her little hands out of the way.
“Alright, alright I’m going.” Takamina walked away glancing back not wanting to leave. Atsuko in return gave an irritated face in response.
