My alarm has just gone off but I really don't feel like getting up. I still have not gotten over all of the things that have happened since I was fired and found out that my girlfriend of five years cheated on me with one of my closest friends.
Mai and I have been living in harmony for two weeks now. Yasu and I have found an office for my business that I named The Paranormal Research and Technology Organization or PRTO for short. Now all I needed was to clean it and furnish it. My thesis was now done and submitted. The Paranormal Society loved it as did my colleges at Cambridge.

I had just started making breakfast when I heard the postman outside. This sudden feeling hit me and I ran to the door and opened it. I grabbed the mail and hurriedly looked through it. "Yes! Koujo you got mail!" I screamed from the kitchen. He came out of his room in just his pajama pants.
I blushed and handed the letter over to him. "Well, it's the answer to my application," Koujo said with his sleepy voice. "Well open it," I said really excited. "Okay, Mai. But you really shouldn't get your hopes up." He tells me while opening it.
He starts reading. "Dear Lin, Koujo - san we are pleased to inform you that your Business License has been approved. Enclosed are the documents you will need to register your business residents and the code for your tax forms for your employee's payroll."
As soon as he was done with that paragraph. I latched my arms around him in a gut crunching huge. "See I told you. You'd be approved." I tell him with a huge smile.

Mai is crunching my guts to the best her small body can. I looked down at her and smile. "It seems I'll be busy today after all," I said to her with a smile. Her smile got wider as I smiled at her. "You should never doubt my instances Koujo." Then she dialed Yasu. "Hey, he got the approval letter. We'll meet you at the office. Okay, see you soon." Mai conversed with Yasu. "Yasu's going to call Ayako. Then meet us at the office so we can get cleaning it up." She tells me with a smile. "Mai, don't you have classes today?" I ask. " Nope my professor is sick. So my classes are canceled." She says with a smile.
"Well if your free would you like to help me pick the furniture for the office?" I ask her knowing she wants to. "Sure. But let's get it all cleaned up first. Come help me load the cleaning stuff from the closet into your car." She opened the closet in the washroom. Inside there was a rug scrubber, vacuum, and a bucket full of spray cleaner, rags, toilet brush and cleanser.
"Crap were going to have to stop and buy more rug cleaner." She stated holding the half empty bottle. "Not a problem," I replied. We loaded the cleaning supplies into the car. I stop at a shop and Mai ran in. She got four more bottles rug soap, a tile cleaner, floor cleaner, dish and hand soap. "There we should have everything we need." She says with a smile.
"Mai. I feel really bad that you keep spending money on me and the office. I'm going to pay you back for all of it once the business starts running." I tell her. "Koujo you need your money for the office supplies and equipment. This is nothing compared to that and I know if I'm ever in need you would help me with whatever it maybe. So please don't think that way." She said giving me a look that says you know I'm right.
"Fine but the first time you're in need of anything. I want you to come to me. None should know before me. Unless they were with you when it happened." I tell her in my I mean it voice. "Okay, Koujo. I'll come to you." She said holding up her hands in surrender. "You promise," I say looking over at her while waiting for the light to change. "I promise." She states with her smile.
It takes us an hour to get to the new office. "Koujo what's in your CD player." I smile. "Hit play and find out." The CD started to play. It was a Muse CD.
"I haven't heard them in ages. Their music is hard to find in Japan." She told me singing along in English. Her singing voice was wonderful and her English was spot on. "I know I bought that CD from England with me," I tell her. Madness ends just as we pull up to the curb in front of the new office.
Mai : :
It looked like a house more than an office to me. The owner of the building was waiting for us.
She let us inside. The whole place was bare. As you walked through the door you stepped into a sitting room. Off to the right was a hallway that led to two offices. But there was another door at the end of the hall. She opened it to reveal a kitchen. "This is the other side of the building." She told us. We kept walking through the big kitchen/dining room that led to a good size living room with a fireplace and a staircase. She opens a door on the side of the room. It opened onto a small patio that overlooked the yard that was fenced in with gates on the sides. "This is the yard and patio. Come I'll show you the upstairs." She said leading us back inside and up the staircase. Off the landing, there were four doors. The first door leads to a huge bathroom. The rest were good sized bedrooms.
As we head back to the office part of the place. Koujo stopped me. The lady saw and nodded. "I'll be waiting at the door for your answer."
"Well, Mai. What do you think?" He asked with a smile. "Isn't it a little big for just you?" I ask him. "Mai I was hoping you would move in here with me." He said looking at the floor. "Are you sure about that Koujo. You're a single good looking male. Won't I be hurting your chances of landing a date." "We'll talk about that later. For now, will you move in with me?"
I wonder if he knows I love him and I don't want him to leave. "Yes, I'll move in. If you tell me how you feel about me." I tell him.
Koujo swallowed hard. "Mai I do have feelings for you. In a romantic way. But I just want to take thing slow between us. Does that sound good to you?" He asks looking deep into my eyes pleading for me to understand. "Alright, I'll move in here with you. But I'm paying for movers." I tell him. "Alright." He said in a huff. Then we continued down the hall to the sitting room. "We'll take it." He told the lady who smiled at them. "Ok, I have the ownership transfer in my purse. Do you have my check?" She asks Koujo. Who pulls it out of his breast pocket in his jacket. She and Koujo signed some papers. Yasu and Ayako pull up just as the women shaking Koujo's hand and gives him the keys.
"Koujo did you just buy this house?" I ask him with my eyes as wide as saucers. "Yes, Mai it was a steel. You see when she renovated the place she stirred up two spirits. So she just wanted rid of the place." I stretched out my senses but got nothing. Ayako and Yasu entered at that moment. Koujo's fire shiki laid down on my neck then whispered in my ear. "My master already moved them on. When Yasu and master first looked at this place."
I scratched its head. Then welcome Yasu and Ayako inside. Koujo and Yasu started cleaning while I gave Ayako a tour of the office and house.
We had the whole place cleaned from carpet to ceiling in like six hours. But by the time we were done everyone was tired and headed home to their beds.
