CHAPTER 3
"Hey Akira?" Haruhi called as they stood outside music room #3, they'd arrived very early and were waiting for the others to arrive.
"Hm?" I responded
"Well, I've been wondering…how do you know the twins so well?" Haruhi asked somewhat silently.
I couldn't hold back the smile that stretched itself across my face as I remembered back to when I was just a little girl.
A small girl with shoulder length black hair swung back and forth on the swing happily, her older sister pushing her.
"Higher! Higher!" the girl giggled
"Akira! If I push harder you'll fall off the swing!" the sister replied as she laughed.
"Y-young masters!" a maid called, making them stop.
Akira looked up at her sister in question who just smiled kindly "Mayumi, what is it?"
Mayumi stuttered "W-well you both must get ready for the b-business party being held tonight…"
Akira huffed as she continued to swing "I don't wanna go!"
The older sister grinned whilst grabbing the chains from the swings, pulling Akira to a stop "Now, now imouto I know they're boring but we have to go! Business relationships are important." The sister explained.
Seeing Akira still wasn't convinced she patted her head "Don't worry, I'll be there to keep you company." At this, Akira looked up.
Sighing Akira got off the swing "if you say so Onee-chan…" grabbing her sisters hand Akira ran toward the building as Mayumi called after them.
"The other maids have your dresses already picked out and ready!"
The older sister nodded "Thank you!"
"Hanako you look beautiful." Their mother, Fumiko stated proudly as her daughter donned an elegant emerald dress with spaghetti straps and a sweetheart neckline, her hair was braided carefully down her back with a few strands framing her face and sparkling blue eyes.
"Mommy, mommy what about me!" Akira yelled as she ran into the room and gave a twirl making the two women laugh. Akira was dressed in a small pink dress with a boat neckline, the chest area was covered in pink sequins whilst the lower half puffed out with layers of a mesh like material. In the middle was a big pink ribbon with a flower attached. The girls shoulder length hair was curled inward and a pink headband with a few diamonds attached that glistened in the light.
"You both look gorgeous." Fumiko breathed, she beckoned them down the stairs to meet the two males of the family, their father Koichi had his short dark brown hair slicked back and stood tall, his blue eyes shining, he wore a visibly expensive tuxedo made from fine fabric.
Her brother Raiden stood next to him with his usually spiky brown hair tamed down with gel, his grey eyes gazed down at his tie in annoyance as he adjusted it.
"Are we all ready?" Fumiko said glancing at us all, we all nodded.
"Good, Hideo! Fetch the car."
"Right away fujikawa-san…" the butler bowed and exited the house, hardly a moment later each of the family members were seated in the limo.
"So who're we meeting this time?" Akira said excitedly
"The Hitachiins." Her mother replied
"Huh?" Akira blinked in confusion
"The Hitachiins are another fashion company, tonight we intend to better our relationship and work together in the future and even do a few collaborated works and fashion shows." Her father explained.
Akira made an 'o' sound as Hanako chuckled "Don't worry, I heard the Hitachiins have two sons your age!"
"Yea but I don't wanna leave you!" she replied with her cheeks puffed.
"Don't worry, you won't have to. But you should at least try to make some new friends?" Hanako suggested, Akira only crossed her arms childishly in response, she didn't need anyone other than Hanako- her sister was the only friend she'd ever need!
They soon arrived at the Hitachiin estate, it was crowded with limos, fancily dressed people, maids and butlers alike who were setting things up and attending to guests.
Akira bounced in her seat as she glanced around frantically, she may have been against attending them at first but she now always just looked for an excuse to go, as long as she had Hanako by her side of course.
"Alright, remember everyone- Akira especially you. Don't disgrace the family name, converse with important people and build good company relations." Fumiko recited the same line as she always did before each business party or meeting.
The whole family nodded and exited the car, upon entering the grand building they were greeted by many guests including of course Yuzuha Hitachiin the owner of the company who introduced the Fujikawa's to her husband Mr. Hitachiin and their sons Hikaru and Kaoru Hitachiin.
"Hikaru, Kaoru why don't you spend time with their lovely daughter Akira?" Yuzuha suggested.
The two young boys looked at the girl who was nudged forward by her sister, she glanced at them in uncertainty before stepping forward "Hello…" she said shyly, they both nodded to her silently in response.
Throughout the rest of the night Fumiko and Koichi conversed with many business people especially the Hitachiins, Hanako and Raiden tried to stay with Akira but eventually had to do as their parents wished. Akira was for most of the night, left with the twins who hardly talked.
"So…do you two want to play a game…?" She asked
They looked at each other before answering "We have game to play." They both said simultaneously.
"Oh?" Akira cocked her head to the side
"Let's play the which one is Hikaru game." They answered
"Uhh…what do I have to do?" Akira asked
"You just have to guess, which one of us is Hikaru." One said
"And which one is Kaoru." Said the other.
I looked at them and scoffed "Well how on earth would I win if I gave it a shot now? I'd assume I'd base it on facts about how you two are different rather than guessing but I can't because I've just met you two!"
"We can give you one month." One said
Crossing my arms I rolled my eyes "I doubt we'll see each other enough in one month for me to find out."
The twins looked at each other for a brief moment before saying "one year."
Akira's eyes narrowed 'Why are these two so desperate for me to play this game…?' she thought in confusion before sighing "fine."
Little did any of them know that, that would be the start of a very important stage in all of their lives. Over the course of the year there were numerous business parties held of which both Akira and the twins attended, once the year was up however she had to figure out which was which. Akira had guessed correctly and when asked for reasoning she simply stated 'intuition' and walked off leaving the twins annoyed.
A few years had passed and they were all in middle school, things had gone smoothly until that fateful day when, for unknown reasons, Hanako Fujikawa died. At the next business party it would be the first that Hanako would not be there with Akira, the twins grew bored of their books and video games and decided to annoy Akira who sat oddly quiet in the corner, staring out the window. She merely glared as they approached, they teased and mocked her to try and get a rise out of her, she simply growled and stalked off shocking both Hikaru and Kaoru. When Akira looked back, one thing her mother told her never to do she saw Raiden explaining to the two shocked twins of the recent events.
Soon after that Akira had to move to France for business related things and that was the last she ever saw of the twins…
Until now…..
"Akira? Akira? Hey!" Haruhi called, shaking her lightly.
Akira blinked and stared at her as Haruhi smiled "You were kinda lost in thought for a while, I don't even know if you heard me."
Akira smiled and looked back out the window, watching as the birds flew high into the sky "I heard you…." She whispered.
"Well? How do you know them so well?" Haruhi asked again
"Let's just say….it all started with a game."
Well there ya have it, third chappie all done. Short and sweet, still don't have anything much to say so I guess i'll go with the usual.
