Chapter 4: Gang business
Kizaki Yuria’s POVI reached the door, staring at the man in front of me. He looked tall and quite impressive.
“What do you want?” I snapped, annoyed to see this unknown guy.
“Where is Iriyama-san?” He answered with a rough voice.
Anna? Why? Did was he a part of her family?
“What do you want?” I asked, I will not let him go in.
“Fuck you.”
Really? Who the hell was this guy?
“Get out of here.” I tried to close the door, but he stopped it with his foot.
“I said, I want to see Iriyama.” He pushed me away.
He stepped into my home. I remained in front of him.
“And I said, get the fuck out of here.”
He could hear a laugh, a mad one. He tried to punch me but I was quick enough, and I could avoid him, stopping his arm. I answered with a hit on his face. I wasn’t strong enough, he must have felt nothing. I kicked his knee, but he dodged it, punching my stomach hard. I thought about Anna. She was still in the bathroom, I hoped at least. My stomach hurt, and my head started spinning. He took my shoulders and threw me violently on the floor. I tried to stand up, but I felt one last kick in my stomach before everything became blank.
I opened my eyes, slowly. The light dazzled me. I blinked a few times. Where was I? What happened? Was Anna okay? I hoped she was. I heard noises not far from me. I wanted to stand up, but I was too weak. The sudden pain in my stomach stopped me.
“You’re awake.” I quickly recognised this warm tone.
I looked at the girl who walked to me, smiling. It was Yui.
“Where am I?” I asked, still half-dizzy.
“My home.”
“Where is Anna?”
“She is sleeping in a bedroom.”
So, we were at Yui’s place. How? I couldn’t even think straight.
“Did something happen to her?”
She smiled at my question.
“No, she was just tired.”
I didn’t understand everything. I needed to know, but I was still in a bad state. I stayed lying on the bed, closing my eyes. I wanted to see Anna.
“Yui I-”
“I’ll tell her.” She read my mind.
Iriyama Anna’s POV“Anna-san? She is awake.”
I nodded, standing up. I felt relieved. I reached her room, looking at her. I recalled what happened.
*Flashback*I was in the bathroom, hearing a few noises. Yuria was yelling at someone. Looking through the ajar door, I distinguished a kind of fight. I couldn’t move anymore. I knew I couldn’t do anything anyway. I waited. It suddenly became silent. I waited. I heard footsteps. I hid behind the door. It was stupid, but it was my only solution. The door was opened. I held my breath. I knew it wasn’t Yuria. I was afraid. I waited for a few minutes before being sure the person left. I reached the living room. Yuria was lying on the floor. I stayed speechless. She seemed unconscious. I called her, moved her. She didn’t answer. Her lips were covered with blood. Her t-shirt was lifted up, there were marks and bruises on her stomach. An idea came to my mind. I took Yuria’s phone, looking for a specific ‘Yui’ in her contacts. I founded her and called the girl.
*End Flashback*Yui helped us. I was thankful to her. I explained the situation, and she understood it even though it seemed completely weird. I sat next to Yuria. She looked still asleep. I stroked her forehead gently.
Should I call my father? I needed to understand why everything happened. I was sure it was his fault. Or perhaps it was from Yuria’s family. No, it couldn’t be.
“Anna…” A familiar voice pulled me away from my thoughts.
“Hey…”
She showed me a little smile. She was fine. I couldn’t hold the tears which began to run along my cheeks. She extended her arms, wiping it away.
“Are you hurt?” I asked, without looking at her.
“I’m feeling better.” She answered, sitting straight. “What about you?”
“I was afraid.” I lowered my head. “It’s my fault, I’m sorry.”
I felt a light kiss on my forehead. I still couldn’t look at Yuria. I bit my lip, trying to stop my tears.
“It’s not your fault. We’re okay now.” She told me with a warm voice as to reassure me. “Anna, look at me.”
I raised my head. She was so sweet.
“I love you.” She told me before kissing my lips.
“I love you too.” I could answer when we pulled away.
Kizaki Yuria’s POV “I can’t believe it Yui!” Someone yelled in the house.
I cast a stunned glance at Anna. We both stood up and reached the living room. There was someone else with Yui. A girl. I never saw her before.
“You. It’s your own fault.” She looked at me, angry.
“Haruka, she is my friend. I need to help her.” Yui stopped her from leaving, grabbing her arms.
“Oh really? And what about me?” The girl answered back. “It’s dangerous.”
I didn’t really understand what happened in front of my eyes. I tried to remember her face but I couldn’t. Was she Yui’s friend? And why was it dangerous? The named Haruka turned around, looking at Anna.
“Are you Iriyama-san’s daughter?” She asked in a salty tone.
“I am.” Anna simply answered.
The salty girl let out a sigh. She seemed calmer. She cast a quick look at Yui which looked worried.
“Does she know?”
Yui shook her head. Know what? Was there something we need to know?
We sat around the table, in silence. I wanted to protect Anna, but I knew nothing about the danger. We missed something, it seemed that Haruka knew about it. I was nervous. Anna could feel it, she took my hand gently.
“Anna, right?” Haruka started speaking in a still calm tone. “Your father is the head of a gang.”
“Eh?” She only could let out, dumbfounded.
Gang? Anna’s father? What was that? It was bizarre.
“So, the man, was he his?” I asked quickly.
“I don’t know but surely yes.”
He sent his own men to take his daughter. But, why the wedding was so important? What was the link between my family and Anna’s? Anna looked at me, worried. I noticed that she wasn’t okay. Of course, she wasn’t, she needed time to process the news.
“I’m sorry for being angry with you. But, it’s dangerous. I mean, your father could come here and-”
“Haruka. We’re fine here. Nobody knows that Anna’s here.” Yui interrupted her with a reassuring voice.
Haruka lowered her head. I wondered if she was still angry or sad perhaps. I couldn’t really know. I let out a sigh.
“I’m going to take a rest.” I told them, standing up.
Anna excused herself and followed me to our bedroom. We both lied down on the bed. I was tired. My stomach still hurt me, but I tried to hide it. I didn’t want Anna to be worried. She was already concerned enough.
Iriyama Anna’s POVI was afraid. I didn’t know if it was right, but I believed Haruka’s words. It could explain a few things, but there were still questions in my mind. I looked at Yuria. She was staring at the ceiling, thinking. I needed her to reassure me, to protect me. I moved my head to her chest. I quickly felt her hand playing with my hair. I closed my eyes and relaxed in her arms. I could hear her heartbeats.
“Yuria…?” She looked at me, hearing her name. “You love me, right?” I asked in a shaking tone.
I was afraid that she leaves me behind, that she lets me alone, that she doesn’t love me anymore.
“Anna… Of course, I love you. Never doubt it.” She let a light kiss on my cheek.
I sat on her stomach. She looked at me stunned. I didn’t think twice and leaned over until our lips met. I didn’t want to break it, it was a long and passionate kiss. We pulled away after a couple of seconds. I just kissed her again and again, the sound of kisses filled the quiet bedroom.
“Anna…” She spoke, breathless.
“I love you.” I told her, resting on her chest again.
She smiled, stroking my back for a few minutes. I didn’t know why I told her so often. But it was right after all. I remembered what happened earlier. I couldn’t stay like this, I needed to do something. I stood up, leaving the warm embrace.
“Where are you going?” She asked, bewildered.
“I want to talk with Yui-san.”
I reached the living room. It was silent, nobody seemed to be there. I looked around me. I walked to a door, even though I didn’t know what was behind it. Maybe Yui’s room I guessed. I wanted to knock, but I could hear some yells coming from the place.
“What did you want me to do? To leave my friend alone?”
“Is she more important than me? Why don’t you understand?”
“I understand. It’s just- You should help me instead of yelling.”
Another quarrel because of me. I let out a sigh. Perhaps I shouldn’t stay here. But I had no other place. I should go back to Yuria’s brother. I stepped back and hit someone. I saw the figure, letting out a loud yell. I touched the door behind me. Yui quickly came out, putting her hand on my shoulder to reassure me. Yuria met us, staring at me, stunned.
“I’m sorry.” The boyish girl in front of me apologised, lowering her head.
“Sayaka?” Yuria let out this unknown name.
Kizaki Yuria’s POVThe girl turned around, looking at me. It was her. I smiled.
“Yuria, I needed to see you.” She told me in a serious tone.
My smile dropped. Something was wrong. I cast a quick glance at Haruka, she was still mad. She didn’t even look at Sayaka, or maybe she did with a dirty look.
“Your name came up in my father talk lately.”
Sayaka was the daughter of a yakuza. She tried to not put herself in dangerous situations, but her father was the head of his clan.
“Come with me.” She ordered while I followed her.
I hoped Anna was okay after her little fear. We went outside. I needed to take some fresh air after all these events.
“Who is this girl?” She asked, referring to Anna.
“My girlfriend.”
“I see.”
I wanted to know what was wrong but Sayaka couldn’t really help me as she tried to avoid her father’s stuff. Perhaps he was… No, it couldn’t be.
“Be careful Yuria. It could become dangerous.”
“I know, but I decided to protect Anna. No matter what.”
She suddenly looked at me, she seemed stunned. Did I say something wrong?
“Anna? Iriyama Anna?”
I nodded. Sayaka must have known this name like Anna was the daughter of a gang leader.
“Yuria, she is the girl who ran away from her wedding.”
“I know, I helped her.”
“Wait, they don’t know she is with you.” She paused for a few seconds, looking away from me. “Do you know who her fiancé was?”
“My brother.” I only answered, a bit nervous.
Sayaka showed me a surprised face before quickly becoming serious again.
“I need to go. I’ll help but for now, stay hidden here.” She started leaving, she looked suddenly in a hurry. “Be careful Yuria.” She left.
I let out a sigh. I even didn’t really understand what was going on with my own family.
“Yuria…” A cute voice called my name.
I didn’t turn around, feeling her arms around my waist.
“We should go back inside.” I told her, but she didn’t release me. “Anna?”
I felt her head on my neck. She began to shake.
“Anna? Are you okay?”
“Hmm…” She only could say before her voice cracked, she burst into tears.
I stayed silent. I had nothing to say. Anna knew I’ll be there for her. I couldn’t promise anything else. I was also afraid.
“Stop crying.” I bit my lip, my tone sounded a bit rough.
She quickly removed her arms and went back inside. I followed her, trying to talk to her.
“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean this.” I paused, waiting for an answer. “Anna, listen to me.”
“Let me alone.”
We passed by the living room. Haruka and Yui looked at us, stunned. She slammed the bedroom door. I remained in front of the closed door. This girl could be really stubborn. It wasn’t the right time for this kind of stupid fight.
“Open the door.” I begged, hopeless. “Anna, sorry. I didn’t want to be mean but open the door, please.” I finally begged her. “If you don’t I’ll break it down.” I could hear Yui spitting her drink before coughing. “Anna? Answer me…”
I looked at Yui, upset. I didn’t know what to do.
“Do you have the key to open from here?”
She nodded. I felt a bit better, I will not need to break the door. Yui stood up and gave it to me. I quickly reached the bedroom, opening the door. It was silent. I looked around me, looking for Anna. It was empty. The window was opened. I ran to it. I distinguished a black van, it left the street, fast.
“Yuria?”
“Yui… They… They took her…” I was on the edge of the tears.
How? How could this happen? I promised to protect her, and she was suddenly gone.
“Yuria?!”
I could hear Yui’s voice before everything became blank.
