Somewhere in Sampaloc, Manila...

"May, mahigit isang linggo na tayong nagbabantay sa bahay ng utol mo... Sigurado ka bang dito pupunta yun?" (May, we've been watching your sister's house for more than a week... are you sure that she's going to come here?) A man asked his companion who was equally impatient.

"Wala na yung ibang alam na puntahan. Pag nagutom yun, dito pupunta yun!" (She has nowhere else to go. Once she goes hungry, she's bound to come back here) the woman beside him said.

"Hanapin na lang natin. Ipapanawagan sa TV. Malay mo. Galit na galit sa'kin si Baldo. Napahiya daw sya sa customer. Pag di natin nahanap yun, isosoli natin yung pera. Kung hindi, mayayari tayo!" (Let's just look for her. Or let's have her announced missing on TV. You'll never know. Baldo's so angry with me now, he was chastized by the customer. If we don't find her, we have to give him back the money. If we don't, he'll kill us!)

"Uuwi yun dito. Sigurado ako." (She'll come back here. I'm sure.)

"E diba, sabi ni Baldo, mukhang bigatin yung jumombag sa kanya?" (Didn't Baldo say that the one who beat him up looked pretty loaded?)

"Asa ka naman na patitirahin nun yung putris na bata na yun? Asa ka pa! Wala nang ganoon dito" (You think whoever that person is will keep that fucked up kid in his house? Stop dreaming! Those people don't exist anymore)

"E bakit pa nya kinuha si Rika sa van?" (Why did he take Rika from the van?)

"Bakit pa nga ba? E di para makatikim" (Why else but to fuck her himself?)

UPDATE~!

 Ima watch my last Abba song and get to reading! wedge~!
ok, Abba song been over for a while XD


 Now, I feel soo sad! I took like an hour or three to finish due to procrastination and other distractions. umm where was I?

 Soooo. Sad. I think I get it now. She was to be sold to slavery. Possibly sex slavery. I feel so sory for her. I think her 'aunty' or stepmom sold her to some guys because her uncle got drunk one night and tried to violate her. That is sum fucked up fammily. I hate Hitomi's dad even more now. I think he did it on purpose to eliminate the competition. Probably to take overr their company cheaply. Asshole! And to think it all hapened on her birthday. Jerk....

 So from what I gathered, Rika is a girl who though once rich her family lost their company, soon after her father commited suicide and she lived with her stepmother and maybe her kids if she had any...I don't think so but...maybe she took her to get money from it or maybe she genuinely loved her for a while. But then she took her to the Philipines to live with her sister( I think...if not her brother) but when her or her husband came into her room drunk and he was shot down she was branded a whore and an enchantress and she was sold to slavvery.

 That's when Yoshi saw her getting transported to her new ownerr or something and saved her. And now bad people are after her because they want her for whatever pimp/buyer they had in store for her. Meanwhile Yoshi's mother was raped in front of her and her father. She later took her own life and she has blamed her father for this. I am guessing that Ken is her brother, perhaps half brother from the rape. She is acting as a sort of vizier for him untill he is old enough to run the company. Or maybe her fathers' son from a later marriage. Either way he is a little kid. She must love him though.

 She is running the company and calling the shots while the dad is sort of a backseat driver there and she gets to make the desicions. You could say that he is a shareholder perhaps. I was like "GAH!" at the lil chat those two had. Also rofled at the name May, I think someone else knows why XD anyway

 Rika can now talk, but she doesn't want to tell Yoshi (see what I did there? XD) because she is afraid of how this might affect their relationship. She will though, eventually.. Yoshi is really depressed and has the weight of the world on her shoulders and has been through a lot more that Rika, dealing with it and taking it like a man. She is breaking though and the more she finds out about Rika the worse she gets, the more she hates her dad and blames him and the worse she gets. She really loves Rika though and that is good, but she thinks Rika will hate her if she knew about what her father did to her family.

 So there is a lot of trust but too many secrets. And the things to ask are how will they react once they find out the truth? What will happend to them? and will their pasts catch up to them... also questions about their pasts which are quite trivial such as the whole Yoshi Miki fiasco which really is redundant unless it is going to affect them in the future like for example if it they get back together or something lol which is highly unlikely cause they both have diferent people in their lives.

  What I want to read about in the future is some GAM rabu rabu. Like them putting the beds together in the hotel room and snuggling or something...or how they feel about being here and close to Yoshi and their perspectives. Like Miki saying how she feels about what hapened between them or Aya being scared of losing Miki to her ex now that they are close or something like that.

 Either way, the story is very interesting and I like it and want to read more.  :cow:

sorry to dampen your excitement. the update you've been waiting for is here...

In the car, Hitomi made sure that her face did not show any sign of tears. Rika would be very worried about her if Rika notices that she cried. She had Rika’s jersey on her lap. Positive Charmy.

She waited for the elevator. 2 minutes have passed but the elevator still hasn’t gone down. Impatient and eager to see Rika, Hitomi ran up the emergency stairs with the jersey in one hand and her briefcase in the other. 19 floors. Arriving at the door, she was about to unlock the door when her cellphone rang. It was the Eyes.

“We got new leads. She is in the Philippines.” the Eyes immediately hung up but Hitomi didn’t care about that now.

She quickly unlocked the door. She walked in the living room. She expected Rika to be watching TV now but Rika was not in the living room. She was then surprised by the sound of the baby grand piano playing. Moonlight by Beethoven 1st movement. Could it be…? She dropped her briefcase and the jersey.

Hitomi walked to the discreetly hidden music room. Opening the door, she found Rika playing. She saw Rika smile that way again. That familiar smile.

Rika had her eyes closed as she played. Did Rika notice that I’m here? standing at the door? Maybe not. Hitomi smiled to herself seeing that Rika’s memorized the piece. She’s good. She really is a daughter of Ishikawa Yumiko Hitomi thought to herself as she heard several technique variations in Rika’s playing style.

“Rika-chan…?” Hitomi interrupted Rika.

Ayumi sadly said. “The contracts were supposed to be signed January 16. Just in time to save CorPrint from foreclosure… It seems that CorPrint had gambled everything they had into the merger… Uncle Yoichi committed suicide three days later…”

Hitomi’s eyes started to redden with tears. “… January 19… Rika’s birthday... … that BASTARD!!!” Hitomi slammed her fist on the desk.

 :mon mad: yossy's dad is so mean!!!!!!!!

Ayumi took her hand “… just spend the day with her. Make her happy.”

^it does.

I hope my fic makes you guys happy. Machine gun update before they tie me up to the bed.

Rika was both surprised and embarrassed to see Hitomi standing there listening to her. When she began to move to stand up, Hitomi quickly stopped her. Hitomi walked to the side of the room to her violin “Ano… I was wondering if… I can play along with you… … Moonlight?”

Rika nodded enthusiastically, trying hard not to let a peep out of her lips.

“Let me just tune this… Can you give me a low A?” Rika pressed the key. Hitomi listened to the note and hummed the note. She carefully adjusted the pegs of her violin and played a scale to be sure. “All right… let’s go”

Rika poured her heart out onto the piano— everything that she wants to forget, everything that she’s running away from, everything she wanted to say but can’t, everything that she’s been keeping secret from the one whom she wanted to know about her most-- the one playing the violin right beside her. The world stopped spinning and time stood still.

Today was the first time in five years that Rika has touched a piano but right now she could do no wrong. Hitomi’s violin guided her to pressing down the right keys. They played their duet with passion and intensity, as if they were dancing, as if they were feeding off each other’s energy and passion. They felt that they were one.

At the last note they looked at each other. They were both sweating profusely, breathing heavily.

Rika got up from the bench, offering her seat to Hitomi who looked exhausted. Hitomi simply rested her violin on the bench. The fatigue from running up the stairs and playing the violin like that sent her falling on to Rika.

It was an awkward position to be in. They already learned that from yesterday morning. But today, they didn’t move from their strange position and just stared at each other.

Hitomi brought her lips close to Rika’s ear, “I came home very early today so that I can be with you… Rika-chan…” Rika just closed her eyes and breathed in deep as she felt Hitomi’s heart beat against her chest.

in the Church of the Gesu, Ateneo campus, Quezon City...

Yoshizawa Jin smoothed his tie as he walked to a pew in the Church. The church was empty save for two nuns seated together. Jin knelt down on the pew behind them.

"I hope you brought the right amount. We don't give out change." Said one nun. Which of the two, Jin did not know. They did not turn to look at him.

"I have it all here."

"US $50,000?"

"Yes. and i brought extra. I heard you charge extra for rushed works."

"I'm glad you heard that. We do. US$10,000."

"I have it all here." placing the bag full of cash beside one nun.

"Good. now, what's the job?"

"I want information on this girl" Jin passed them a blurry airport security camera snapshot.

"Which girl? There are two in here."

"The one in the passenger seat of the van."

"Contact me immediately for any information."

"Yoshizawa, you do not dictate when we should contact you. Be clear on that." The two nuns stood up and walked away, leaving Yoshizawa Jin kneeling alone in the church. I will know, Hitomi...

hopefully, though highly unlikely, not my last post for today... ishiyoshi interaction...

Hitomi pulled herself up and assisted Rika in getting up. “I’m sorry… the music was just so intense… Was I heavy?”

Rika shook her head and smiled. She liked the intensity of their duet.

“You wanna go out?”

Rika stood there thinking about it. It doesn’t matter as long as I’m with you… She just shrugged.

“I’ll take that as a yes. Let me just take a quick shower, okay? We’re going to buy groceries.”

Rika walked off to her room. She was drenched in sweat. I think I need to take a shower too.Warm water fell fast, unlike that drop of sweat from Hitomi’s forehead that fell on her cheek while they were on the floor. The warmth of the water felt nice but the warmth from Hitomi’s body was electrifying. I came home very early today so that I can be with you… Rika-chan…Rika’s heart melted.

Hitomi, unlike Rika, liked cold showers. Especially now after falling on Rika like that. That fall was also intense like their rendition of Moonlight. She remebered how fast her heart beat that moment while staring into Rika's eyes.
I need to set my mind straight.

After that quick warm shower, Rika went straight to the closet and looked for something to wear. She picked out a pair of jeans and a plain blue baby tee. She also took out a pair of blue Havaianas that Ayaka bought for her.

In the other room, Hitomi was also looking for something to wear. She picked out a pair of cargo-style jeans and a pair of Birkenstock sandals. While rummaging through her shirts, she noticed a shirt she has never seen in her possession before. Probably something Ayaka bought for me. For some reason, she chose to wear it.

Rika walked out to the living room to see Hitomi sitting on the couch, waiting for her. After seeing Hitomi’s shirt, Rika blushed. They were wearing the same color.

awww sweet last chapter! And the one before makes me want to hurt her father even more. I don't like him a lot now. First I thought maybe she is overreacting and he didn't really do much to hurt her directly but now I think he must've been a real jerk...

 Also I  edited my second last post to say what I think is happening so far.

can't wait for more!!!

^thanks...

*In malls in the Philippines, there are security checks on all doors where guards would frisk the customers for bombs and other dangerous weapons.

When they arrived at SM Makati, Rika and Hitomi quickly turned heads. Going to the door, it was an awkward scene. It wasn’t the first time this happened to Hitomi but it was still quite embarrassing.

Rika and Hitomi stood in the female line. The security guard on the men’s lane called to her. “Sir, pambabae po ‘yang pila na yan.” (Sir, that line is only for women.”)

Hitomi did not understand a word. Rika quickly wrote the translation on her palm and showed it to Hitomi.

Hitomi looked back at the guard and said. “I know…” and wrapped her arms around Rika to make a "point". The guard was stumped.

The men in line looked at Hitomi and talked among themselves.

“Grabe, bantay sarado sa syota, o” (He’s really guarding his girlfriend tight…)

Rika blushed at hearing the word ‘syota’. It was a slang word for girlfriend or boyfriend. Do we really look like a couple?

Even the female security guard looked awkwardly at Hitomi but said nothing. After the whole frisking ordeal was done and over with, the two proceeded to the supermarket area.

^hahaha!

Hitomi took a cart and pushed it alongside Rika. “Now, what do we need to buy?”

Rika held out a piece of paper. She wrote down a list of the stuff that were running low at home.

1. Eggs

Rika walked to the poultry section and looked at the cartons of eggs neatly stacked upon each other. Taking a dozen eggs by the carton, Rika opened it and felt the shells of the eggs. Hitomi wished that moment that she was an egg. Rika looked very serious as she felt the eggs. She shook her head and took another one. She felt the eggs again. This time she placed it carefully into the cart.

“Why didn’t you take the first one?” Hitomi asked puzzled and still wishing that she was an egg.

Rika wrote in the back of her shopping list. “They weren’t as fresh.”

“How could you tell?”

“The first one had smoother shells. Fresh eggs have a more textured shell.”

“Woah… I never knew that!” Rika knows a lot. She’s just amazing. Hitomi blushed to herself, mentally patting herself on the back. You have great taste there, my friend.

Moving on, Rika stood by Hitomi somewhat looking afraid and poked at Hitomi’s rib with her elbow.

“Nani?”

Rika took out her sketchpad. “Which do you like the most, breasts, thighs or legs?”

Hitomi’s blood rush to her head and looked at Rika with a naughty smile. Rika… I didn’t know you—Her thought and blood screeched halt when she read what Rika wrote next “just go to the freezer and get what part of chicken you like.”

2.Chicken

Slightly disappointed, Hitomi asked Rika “What if I like wings?”

“Wings are bad for you. Just go and get which ever you want except wings.” Rika gave a small pout.

“Why don’t you pick for me? And why don’t you get the chicken yourself?”

Rika finally took out her sketchpad. “I don’t like seeing whole chickens. Please?” Rika smiled hoping to convince Hitomi into getting the chicken with sheer kawaiiness.

“All right. I’ll get all three. How much do we need at home?”

“Just half a kilo each.” Rika smiled in relief and a feeling of victory.

“Okay” Hitomi walked sloppily to the freezer and asked the butcher for breasts, legs, thighs and, being ever defiant, wings. Half a kilogram each. After being handed the chicken parts she walked back to the cart and Rika.

Rika slapped Hitomi’s arm and pointed at the wings.

“I told you, I wanted wings.”

Fine. Rika crossed her arms and looked away pouting.

Hoping to get Rika back on her good side Hitomi wrapped her arms around Rika who was facing away from her. “I want you to cook me… hmm… chicken tinola… Ayaka said you knew how to cook that.” Rika smiled. She knew Hitomi was lying. She never told Ayaka that she cooked tinola. But she let Hitomi slide on that one. Hitomi probably got the name of the dish from some Filipino restaurant she ate at before. Nonetheless, Rika really knew how to cook tinola so she nodded at Hitomi.

Again, the lovely couple attracted attention from the other shoppers and the supermarket staff.

“Ang cute naman nila…”(They’re so cute…) A group of teenage girls stood on the side and watch the two.

“Terno pa sila ng suot, o…” (They even wore matching clothes…) a sales lady commented to another who simply nodded.

“Sana ganyan tayong ka-sweet” (I wish we're as sweet as them) a woman hinted at her husband

“Ang ganda ng girl tapos ang guapo pa nung guy. Parang artista! (The girl is so pretty and the guy is so handsome. They look like movie stars!) a group of friends laughed among themselves as they walked by.

Rika, heard and understood the comments of the people who were watching them. She blushed and looked down. She was already getting used to the attention. Hitomi, on the other hand, had no idea. She was simply annoyed by the fact that everyone’s eyes were feasting on her and especially, Rika. She let go of her embrace and took Rika’s hand.

The two proceeded to the aisles, pushing the cart together, leaving the watchers behind.
