* Senichi's voice was monotone as we spoke on the phone. I explained the delay in our mission, to which he growled low and asked me what the problem was. I explained that I thought it best if I had someone to get close to our target. I suggested Kimiko's sister and after a long pause, to which I thought he would shoot down, he agreed. I was in shock but held my emotions in check. Kimiko would be thrilled and if this worked, I'd be able to keep her and her sister safe, perhaps move someplace warm. After arrangements were made, and a time limit given, I hung up and threw my phone on the desk in my room. Standing, I left my room to find Kim and tell her the news.*

Kimiko, listen to me. Senichi is sending your sister to help us..I convinced him that we needed her help. * Kimiko looked stunned for a few seconds and looked at me like I sprouted another head on my shoulders. " My sister? Coming here? To help us?" I nodded and gave her hand a gentle squeeze.* I hoped getting her here would help us, plus we can protect her here, or where ever we decide to go because, honestly I do not see us returning to Japan until Senichi is dead and buried. I want you to have the life you deserve and want to have. I hope I didn't over step in requesting her be sent here. * I held her hand and waited for her to say something, get angry, anything that would let me know how she felt.*
ReplyDelete* My mind raced with the words Takahiro spoke. Kaiyo was coming here. We'd be able to keep her safe. He wanted me to have the life of dreamed of. Tears formed in my eyes and I blinked them away. Grinning, I threw myself at him, wrapping my arms around his neck. We fell over onto the bed. * Taka, thank you. I can't believe you did that. * Taka chuckled and wrapped his arms around my waist. * "I take it you're okay with it?" * I was too shy to thank him the way I'd like to, so I gave him a quick kiss on the lips. * Yes! I'm SO okay with it!
ReplyDeleteWhen she kissed me, I was stunned. It happened so fast, and she was almost giddy with happiness. I wanted to kiss her back but instead, I just hugged her tight and let her go when she kissed me, I was stunned. It happened so fast, and she was almost giddy with happiness. I wanted to kiss her back but instead, I just hugged her tight and let her go. I'm glad you're happy. Now she will be here on Sunday. That'll give us time to fix up a room for her, go shopping. You know what she likes and doesn't like so, that'll be helpful. * I sat up slowly. I smiled but got serious.* For this to work we have to all be on the same page. Explane it to her so when we have to flee she will understand fully the plan. * Kimiko sat up, her brow furrowed for a moment as she thought. " She will be on board for this. She's always wanted to go to college in the States. She'll understand." I nodded and stood up, holding my hand out to Kimiko. * Then let's get started, little Lotus flower.
