A black hair girl is sitting inside a coffee shop waiting for her bubbly friend who she hasn't seen in years. They were both excited to see each other again and planned their meeting place.
The black hair girl takes out her phone and looks at the screen. "11:55," she smiles to herself. " Just five more minutes."
The black hair girl thinks back to the times when she met Mai when they said their goodbyes, and the emails they would send to one another after that. Base from her e-mails, Mai didn't tell what her job was beside filing and making tea for her boss. But her job must have been fun with the people she has mention.
A bell chimes, a brunette, comes in and smiles as soon as she spots her friend. Mai runs over to her friend and attacks her with a hug.
"Makoto!" Mai says while squeezing her friend to death. " Sorry, I'm late. I miss you so much."
Makoto struggles against Mai's hug. "Mai...Your...Hurting me."
"Oops." Mai releases her friend. "Sorry. I got excited."
Makoto rubs her arms. "I haven't seen you in two years, and you learned a move called squeeze-your-friend-to-death hug." she says laughing.
"Oh, be quiet," Mai says. "It's been a while since we seen each other. Of course, I would want to hug you."
"So.." Makoto looks at her phone. " It's 12:05. Why were you late?"
Mai groan. "My boss knew that I had a lunch date with you. So he ordered me to make tea for him before leaving the office." She sighs. "We argued a little. He won like usual. Then I made the ice prince a batch of tea and delivered it into his cave before coming here."
"Your boss must be a hell of a jerk." Makoto responds.
"You wanna know what my friends and I call my boss?" she asks excitedly.
Makoto rose her eyebrow. "What?"
"Naru." she beams.
"Naru?" Makoto ask. Mai nods her head in response. "As in short for narcissist," she nods her head again.
Makoto laughs loudly. "Oh my god. I can imagine how he looks like right now."
Mai laughs along. "Really?"
"You said that he was from England, correct?" Mai nods. "I imagine your boss as a pretty blonde dude wearing fashionably frilly clothes holding a hand mirror," Makoto says.
Mai laughs loudly. "You'll be surprised by his looks actually."
"Cmon Mai," Makoto says back. "I must have gotten his appearance correct."
"Let's wait and see," Mai says while giggling. "How was your flight here."
"Not too bad." Makoto pauses for a while. "I encountered something weird while waiting for my ride to come pick me up at the airport," she said thoughtfully. "It was very unexpected."
Mai looks at her friend carefully. "You wanna talk about it?"
"Why not. I told my guardian when she picked me up." Makoto answered.
"You have a guardian?" Mai questions.
Makoto raises her eyebrow. "Yea. My parents wanted someone to be here with me instead of being here by myself." She looks at Mai questionably. "Is it wrong to have a guardian with me."
"N-no. Nothing's wrong."
Makoto eyes Mai suspiciously. "You sure?"
Mai sweat-drops. ", it's fine. Now, tell me your story."
" It all started when I was waiting for my guardian to pick me up." Makoto began. "My guardian called me saying that she arrived and to meet her up at the front. As I was making my way, I petite woman came up to me." She closes her eyes. "I can remember that she has black hair, wore fashionable clothes and had a red diamond ring on her left middle finger." Makoto opens her eyes. "She asks if she can have a word with me, but then I decline her because I was jet lagged and had a ride waiting for me." She looks at Mai, who is eagerly listening. "I walked past her but then my hand was yanked, and I came face to face with her. The woman examined my hand and looked at me with wide eyes." Makoto pauses.
"What else did she say?" Mai questions.
Makoto looks at her. " I honestly don't know. She told me that I had to be careful now that I am here in Japan."
Mai's raises her eyebrow. "Huh? What for?"
Makoto leans her head on her hand. "She said that I just have to be for now on. Saying that there will be many problems that I will be facing from now on." She gives Mai a serious look. "She also had another warning."
"What is it?" Mai asks.
"She says that the problems that I will face have happened in the past already and it will repeat itself again." Makoto sighs to herself. "If I am not careful, great harm will come to me and the people around me."
"Harm?" Mai asks confusedly. "What kind of harm?"
"I asked her the same question," Makoto says.
Mai asks. "What? What did she say?"
Makoto sat in silent for a while. " She says that the greatest harm that can happen is.."
Mai looks at her friend. "Makoto." She reaches for her hand and gives Makoto a reassuring smile. " You can tell me."
Makoto takes a deep breath. "Death." She quickly says. " But, the woman says that if I meet this particular person to stop this kind of future."
Mai gives Makoto a worried look. "Special person? That can't be possible. There are too many people in this world."
Makoto chuckles. " This isn't the time to be laughing, Makoto," Mai says.
"Sorry." Makoto laughs lightly. "Its just so like you to be so worried about someone else. The strange woman told me that I met this particular person already. Once I meet that person again. He or she will be there for me physically and emotionally. She also said that the questions I will have from then on will also be answered. So, you don't have to worry about much. Plus, what the woman told me may not be real." Makoto looks at Mai. "Plus, she can be a con-artist of some sort.
Mai pouts at her friend. "But still, what if the things she says is true."
Makoto breathes out gently. "I'll also promise you what I promise my guardian. I'll be more careful from now on," she smiles at Mai. "Okay."
"You swear?" Mai questions her and Makoto reply to her by nodding her head. "Okay. I believe you then." Mai held her hand to her chin. "If what the woman says it true. I wonder who your particular person can be."
Makoto looks at Mai strangely. "First of all, when did you start holding your chin while thinking." She imitates Mai. "Secondly, if what she says is true, there's a possibility that my special person can be you," Makoto says smiling at Mai.
Mai waves her hand in front of her. " No, no, no, no. That's impossible."
"It can be," Makoto says while putting her hands behind her head. " The woman said that I already met that special person, and she didn't say what gender. So, there is a possibility of you being that person since I met you two years ago."
Mai sighs. "Can't argue with that."
Makoto smirks at Mai. "So... Do you like anyone?" she said teasingly.
Mai's blushes and looks away, "N-no, of course not," she said quickly.
Makoto laughs out loud. "Awe, how cute. My little Mai has a crush on someone." Makoto teases. "So, who's the lucky fella whose got my little friend here blushing like crazy. Do I get to meet this guy?" She beams loudly.
Mai fidgets in her seat. "It depends on how long you stay in Japan." She says.
Makoto smiles from ear to ear. "Don't worry. I'm going to be here for a long time because I'll be working in Japan for now.." She says happily. "So, do I get to meet this guy. He must be handsome to get my friend's attention."
"It's my.. boss," Mai says quietly but, Makoto was able to hear her.
"Him!" Makoto says shockingly. "I thought that you that u didn't like your boss because of the nagging he does."
Mai sighs. "I like him right after he hired me. Later on, I confessed to him before he went on his vacation. But, my feelings weren't reciprocated. He thinks that I'm in love with his brother." she said sadly.
Makoto looks at her friend concernedly. "You still like him and work for him even if he doesn't like you back? Are you okay with that."
Mai nods her head. "I am." She looks at Makoto. "Even if he doesn't like me, it will be alright to like him back even if he thinks that I'm in love with someone else. He never said that I can never have feelings for him." Mai smiles. "I thought about it when he went back home for a while. Since I'm older now, I should be able to deal these feelings that I have for him and separate them from my personal feeling from work. That way, we both will still be able to work together professionally."
Makoto looks at the brunette in admiration. "You grown up so well now Mai," she got a little teary. "I wish that I was here with you at the time. But, you were able to get through your problems without my help. That's good of you."
Mai giggles. "I'm a big girl right now." She says while pumping her fist in the air.
"Big girl, my ass. We're the same age." Makoto said while hitting Mai softly in the arm. "Well, it might be time for us to change location." She looks at her handphone and shows it to Mai. "Your lunch time is up. So, let's go to your workplace."
"Eh? Right now." Mai says shockingly.
Makoto nods her head. "Yep, I don't have to report to work today until next week." She says while standing up. "Plus, I want to see the city that you grew up in and see the bastard that rejected my cute little friend."
"You're not going to do anything to him are you?" Mai asks nervously.
"No." Makoto beams happily. "I'm just gonna punch him in the face, kidnap him, and then throw him off a cliff."
Mai looks at her friend in shock. Makoto laughs. "I'm just joking. I wouldn't do that for real." Mai then laughs along with her. "Alright, let's go to my workplace."
Mai's workplace wasn't that far from the coffee shop that they were in. Her work area was right upstairs to the second floor. As Mai leads the way, they both see a door in view that read "SPR". Makoto can only look at the door in wonder.
"Mai." She stops Mai from opening the door. "What does "SPR" stand for?"
Mai looks at her friend. "It stands for Shibuya Psychic Research."
"Oh, okay." Makoto looks at the familiar acronym.
"You go on ahead. I'm going to call my guardian and tell her where I am.
"Okay, just come on in when you are finished. Mai opens the door and walks in. She spoke in a chirpy voice at first. "I'm bac-argh."
Mai squeaked loudly, and a loud thump was heard after that. Makoto runs into the office that Mai works in, forgetting to call her guardian. "Mai!" She says worriedly. But, to her surprise, Mai was on the ground being squeezed to death by a pink hair girl who she seems to know. "Madoka?" Makoto asks.
The pink hair girl turns around and hears her name. "Eh?" she looks at the person who called her name. "Makoto, what are you doing here. I thought that you were meeting your friend."
Mai looks at both of them confusedly. "You both know each other?"
"Yes, Mai," Makoto replies but staring at the pink hair woman. "In fact, Madoka is my guardian during my stay here.
The door across the room swings loudly with a raven hair boy and a tall, one eye covered man walks out of the room. "Madoka, I told you not t cause a commo-. The raven hair boy notices Makoto's presences and had glares at her direction with the other tall man following in suit. "What are you dong here?" he demanded coldly in Makoto's direction.
Makoto slowly folds her arms in front of her chest and glares at the two men across the room. Then she reverted her gaze to the pink hair woman on the ground with her best friend. "You have a lot have explaining to do," Makoto says as she glares at Madoka.
Mai looks at the four of them confusedly.
Madoka laughs nervously. "It was the professor's idea."
