It was a typical day at the Shibuya Psychic research office. Lin was locked in the computer room, while Mai was sitting at her desk twiddling her thumbs. She had finished all her filing ages ago and now she was bored as usual. Her boss was due back any minute from his daily disappearance . Everyday at the same time except when they were on cases, of course. Mai wondered where he went or who he went to see. As Mai was pondering this question, as if by magic, the door opened and in came her boss.
As he headed to his office, He said two words, "Mai, Tea" and shut the door. He seemed agitated for some reason. Mai jumped up, ran to the kitchenette to make his majesty's tea. As she was thinking of Naru (again) the kettle sounded. The young assistant poured the hot water into the cup and added the tea bag . Then she grabbed the cup and headed towards Naru's office. She knocked on the door and got no response.
"Naru, Can I come in? I have your tea!"
No response again. She reached out to put her hand on the doorknob to turn it, the door opened. Kazuya Shibuya looked very worse for wear. He took the cup from Mai and motioned for her to come in.
"We have a new case. But…." He said hesitantly. This was so unlike him. Mai couldn't believe it. Naru was flustered. "There are a few… conditions that have to be met. I want to talk to you before I fill Lin in on the case."
Mai nodded. This was unusual, normally it was this is the case, this is how we are gonna do it and that's that. Period. They sat there for a few moments, which seemed like forever to Mai.
"Ok. Are you going to tell me or do I have to read your mind?" Mai said jokingly, trying to break the ice.
She thought,' This must be hard for him for some reason'
"Well Mai this case takes place at a small inn . It is located on Okinawa. This was a very popular destination for lovers. But in the past year or so it has been catering to troubled couples who are in need of counseling to save their relationships. Well lately ALL the couples have miraculously gotten close and can't even remember being angry at one another. And now they supposedly are blissfully happy. All this within just a few days of being there. They swear they were possessed , and told until they were happy again the spirits wouldn't leave them. The proof they said was copulating to seal their new life together." Naru said matter of factly. His cheeks had a slight pink tinge to them.
Mai couldn't believe her eyes. Kazuya Shibuya- the narcissist was blushing.
"So what are we gonna do about it?"
"The inn doesn't want a lot of people. So I thought you, I and Lin could handle this. The only thing is the spirits only appear to fighting couples. Therefore you and I have to pose as….." He trailed off unsure of how to approach the subject.
"Your no agreeable wife?" Mai finished for him.
Naru nodded. Mai rolled over this predicament in her mind for a few moments not even looking at him.
" Of course, If you don't want to I could always ask Hara-san" He said trying to bait her into an answer.
"Alright, I'll do it. I mean you won't even call Masako by her name. And she's to lovey dovey with you to be believable. So that just won't work" She retorted.
"Fine, Now go get Lin so we can inform him." At her retreating form Naru smiled and thought ' this is going to be interesting if not fun!"
