Kyoshiro caught her before she could fall down. Gently, he picked her up and took her to the sofa. As he put her down he whispered gently,"Every thing will be alright, Yuya-san."

Haruko was stunned. She sat down beside Yuya and as she stroked her forehead, she thought,'What the bloody hell is happening? Who are they? No one told him that she was Yuya. How come they know that she was Yuya not me? I'm sure Sasuke didn't tell them. Some thing is not right. I'm scared. I've never seen Yuya faint, yet at one sight of that scary person she dropped as if she was hit on her head with a baseball bat.'

"I didn't expect that", Yukimura said. There was amusement in his voice. He looked at Kyo."You really have a knack of scaring everyone" Even as he said that he was worried.'I really didn't expect her to react so violently and Kyo hasn't shown any reaction.'

Suddenly, Yuya cried out,"No...Onee-sama...don't...I love..." tears gushed out from those closed eyes.

"Not her dreams again...", Haruko said, with a sad voice.

As soon as she said that, she felt as if some one was choking her. It became hot. So hot that beads of sweat formed on her forehead. The atmosphere change so quickly, that Haruko started feeling suffocated. She looked at her companions. They were staring at her with a strange look which scared her all the more.

Yukimura looked at Kyo when Yuya cried out. He didn't miss the pained look which crossed Kyo's face. The look vanished before Yukimura blinked his eyes, but it was enough for him to realize that Kyo felt the pain Yuya was going through.

"Are you saying that she has these kind of dreams...!", Sasuke exclaimed. Haruko could simply give a small nod.

"Fuck...", Sasuke said.

With a confused look, Haruko asked,"Do you know her...?" Every one froze. She continued on,"It's so weird. How do you know, she's Yuya? No one told you..." She asked Kyoshiro."This is the first time we've met you all. Yet you know her?"

Silence

No one said anything. Suddenly Kyo spoke,"Listen missy, we all happen to be busy people. We're not free to entertain people like you. Get out." Haruko shivered when he looked directly a her. A sudden movement beside her caught her and everyone's attention. Yuya opened her eyes just as Kyo said,"Go back. I don't want to see you both again." looking at Yuya, he continued,"You faint at the drop of the hat and expect us to believe that you are the organizer of a big show."

Yuya just stared at him. As soon as his words registered in her mind, she felt a familiar feeling enter her.'Fuck the pain, how dare he insults me like this. That also in front of so many people',Yuya narrowed her eyes and let her temper take over her.

"How dare you say that? You happen to be a completely insensitive pig, idiot, male chauvinist, as sympathetic as a goat. We came here with the thought that you happen to be good people like my uncle. You don't even know how to treat a person who wants your help. Well let me tell you one thing Mister who-ever-you-think-you-are, even I refuse to take your help. Even if you beg me to, I'll never accept. I refuse to mingle with a person like you. Now if you'll excuse us..." With that she took her bag and left with her head held high.

No one moved from their place. Haruko got up hesitantly, without looking at anyone, she said in a small voice,"Sorry", and left. Sasuke suddenly moved and left after them.

Kyo just stared at the empty place where Yuya stood and gave her passionate speech.

Yukimura ruffled his hair and gave out a sigh.'Man, she got really mad. She actually called Kyo a pig, goat and an idiot. She really hasn't changed', he thought. Suddenly he felt a familiar aura coming from Kyo.'Now, he's really mad.' Giving Kyo a last glance, both Yukimura and Kyoshiro left.

Outside, both of them gave a sigh of relief and then smiled.

"That went well, don't you think, Kyoshiro?"

"This meeting did go well. Better than expected. I was worried for a moment there. I can handle Yuya-san's fury. But thank God Kyo didn't react violently to her words. I wouldn't know then what to do." After a pause, Kyoshiro laughed out aloud and asked,

"So Yukimura, do you still think Kyo doesn't remember anything?"

Chuckling, Yukimura shook his head,"She would have been dead by now for what she said, if he didn't remember anything. He angered her purposely. He always did this, in the past. Whenever Yuya felt sad or was in pain, he turned her attention towards him by saying something atrocious. And like always she would get angry. Oh yes, he remembers everything."


Back in the office...

Kyo slowly went to the window, stared outside for a long while, and then took out his cell phone and dialed a number. When the person on the other side picked up the phone, Kyo said without waiting,

"Why?"

Muramasa sighed and said,"Nice to hear your voice again." When he didn't get any response, he sighed again and answered Kyo's question in a gentle, yet firm voice,

"Because I wanted to"


"Oh God...oh God...oh God..."

"It's no use saying that now, Yuya. The damage is done. Nothing can be done now." Haruko said with a sigh."I can't believe you actually lost your temper. You should resign from the post of being the Organizer."

Haruko and Yuya, along with Sasuke, were at the ground floor of the building. It seemed like, Yuya had realized her blunder. She sat in the lounge with her hands covering her face. Haruko, sat beside her and Sasuke was standing behind them leaning on the wall. Suddenly Yuya asked,"Please tell me,Sasuke, that the person I shouted at was not Kyo...please."

"I can't"

Yuya groaned. "I'm in a mess. A huge mess." Both them nodded in agreement."He was right", Yuya continued,"Damn, this temper of mine. Damn my pride. What do I do now? How and from where do I get a sponsor?", Yuya asked desperately. She combed her hair with her fingers and thought of the kids who were depending on her. Those kids whose future depended on her. Suddenly she got up.

"No, I can't let this opportunity pass by", and started running towards the elevator. She entered the elevator, which thankfully was just closing, pushed the second top-most button, and waited. All this happened in such a short time that Haruko didn't get time to catch up with her. As for Sasuke, he was just behind her, but missed the elevator Yuya had entered.

"Shit", cursing he ran up the stairs, in order to catch her before she could meet Kyo.

As soon as the door opened, she ran past Kyoshiro and Yukimura, who were waiting for the elevator, and opened the door, which led to the office, with a bang before she could be stopped. Gasping for air, she stopped and saw Kyo standing near the window, staring at her expressionlessly. Without giving him a chance to speak, she rushed towards him and said,

"I'm sorry...I'm so terribly sorry...just because of my pride, I let my temper rule me. You were right, and I didn't mean to say anything what I said. It was terribly stupid. It's just that, I was embarrassed because I fainted in front of everyone. I'm sorry. I can't afford to lose you. Many lives are depending on me. Please reconsider. Many small children are depending on me for their future and I, like an idiot, let my emotions get better of me. Please sir, please give me another chance". Not being able to look at him, she bowed her head, to hide her tears, and waited for his refusal.

Everyone heard her. Even Haruko had tears in her eyes. She knew that it was difficult for her to admit her mistake and apologize, that also in front of so many people. Tense, everyone waited for Kyo to say something. When she didn't get any immediate refusal, she raised her head and looked into his eyes. He was waiting for her to look at him. He held her gaze and saw emerald colored eyes staring into his eyes with a mixture of complete innocence and confusion.

Longer they stared at each other, harder his gaze became.'Damn, that shitty girl'

Suddenly, he scowled and as he turned away,he said,"Do what ever you want"

After a few seconds, when what he said registered into their's mind, everyone sighed with relief. Dazed, Yuya kept staring at Kyo. When she felt a hand on her shoulder, she looked up and saw Kyoshiro giving her a huge smile. He was just about to speak, when Kyo spoke up,

"I want everyone to leave the room at once"

Even though he spoke to everyone, his gaze was on Kyoshiro. Immediately, Kyoshiro lifted his hand from Yuya's shoulder. Confused, she looked at Kyo, then at Kyoshiro and again at Kyo. Then, she slowly went towards Kyo and said in a small voice,"Thank you"

Ignoring her, Kyo looked at everyone, narrowed his eyes, and growled,"Get out"

As soon as he said that, the door opened with a bang. There stood two people. One was tall, beautiful, with long pink hair, and the other one was huge, muscular with one of his eye hidden behind a black patch. When they saw everyone staring at them, both of them grinned, and the muscular man laughed and said,

"It seems like we are going to have a get together party, Akari..."
