Scorn. Hate. Rage.
Akito felt all these things towards that infernal girl, Tohru Honda.
He glared out the window and jerked upwards in surprise when he heard someone come in. Turning around, he saw one of the servants. She bowed, murmuring, "Shigure-san is here."
Akito smirked. "Tell him to come in, the pathetic little mongrel." The servant bowed again and exited. Moments later, Shigure walked in.
"Greetings, my god," he said, bowing his head slightly and a faint smile on his face. Akito, immediately spotting his strange smile, went up to him and, his face inches from Shigure's own, spat out, "What are you smiling at, you wretched idiot?" Shigure merely looked away, still smiling. Most annoyed, Akito snapped, "Answer me!"
Shigure sighed nonchalantly, as if saying, "All right, you win," in a very maddening way. "As you wish, my dear," he answered. "Ah… well, it has come to my attention that Honda-san…"
Akito's attention was caught. "What, that girl?" He tried to keep the interest out of his voice.
"Hm, yes, 'that girl' indeed. Anyway, she has told me that she planned to visit you tomorrow, and she asked me to ask you for permission." Akito stared at Shigure in disbelief. Eventually, his lips curved in an upward sinister smile. A visit from that witch? Might not be a bad idea, actually…
Shigure, sensing his master's interest, smiled inwardly and went on, saying, "She did not inform me of her purpose to visit you. Very strange, I can assure you… but she did seem very flustered. Ah, well, guess you'll have to find out tomorrow, eh? Oh, but wait, you still did not give her permission to visit you."
Akito put his arms around Shigure's neck and laughed. "No need to worry about that," he purred. "She will have my permission. Tell her to come at around noon tomorrow. I'll be waiting." With that, Akito let his arms dropped and retreated back to the window. "Go! I'm getting sick of being around you."
"Of course you are," replied Shigure quietly, and left. However, inside, his mind was reeling in amazement. Akito actually said yes! But that wasn't very surprising… is he planning to do something to Honda-san? When Shigure left the house, the beginnings of worry began to take over him.
