A/N: MELLY KHHISMACH‼‼‼…. (I'm feeling giddy and kiddy for no reason but only for posting these…) hope at least you guys had a nice (yester(Christmas))day.
Well, here you go…enjoyyy a little Sessyscapade ;)‼
CHAPTER 10:
To say bluntly, the day was uneventful…well, at least until he thought this particular thought…
With a damn slam, the door opened. Sesshoumaru looked up from his paper-works to see a disgruntled Jaken, breathing hard with his hands upon his knees.
Sesshoumaru was never fond of this little, -almost 4 feet in height-, bald, dark-skinned, toad-like creature…uhm…man. But he was useful and intelligent, proving the verse, 'never judge a book by cover'…here…'never judges a man by hair…eek‼, by appearance'. Whatever, Jaken was a good servant…uhm…secretary, who's devoted to his works and almost completed every work perfectly, 'almost being the key word.
.
-"What is the matter Jaken?" Sesshoumaru asked coolly, voice devoid of any emotions.
-"Seh-Sesshoumaru-sama…please forgive this… lowly Jaken…" Jaken started talking between gasps of air "…I know… you do not want to… be disturbed but… this lowly servant still…"
-"Jaken", Sesshoumaru growled, efficiently cutting his ramblings off. "Stop this ridiculosity and state your emergency."
-"Ha-Hai Sesshoumaru sama." Jaken took a big, loud gush of air and stood straight. "Sesshoumaru-sama, Metro Inc., who we are going to merge with, made the conditions of merging."
-"Yes, and those are?" Sesshoumaru finally looked up from his works.
-"They want WMI to find a new talent that can rival the Jewel Rockers, then merge the two of them so that they can rival the Kotsu brothers' Bands of 7." Jaken said the whole thing in a single breath.
-"And the main problem?" Sesshoumaru knew that this cannot be the only thing, as this news only cannot aggravate the man this much.
-"Uh…um…they want it to be done by the end of this week." Jaken almost whispered as Sesshoumaru had to strain his hearing to hear that.
-"What?"
-"A-And that's not all, they want this new singer to be a woman and slow song singer, completely opposite to jewel rockers, so that when they'd be joined, it'd be a contradictory theme." Jaken squeaked, trembling slightly looking at his master's ice-cold eyes.
Sesshoumaru on the other hand was fuming, although from outside, his demeanor was nothing but of complete and utter cool and calm.
-"Call a board meeting now!" he all but growled.
-"Hai Sesshoumaru-sama, right away Sesshoumaru-sama…" The toad…ugh, man ran away as fast as his little legs can carry him.
Sesshoumaru fell on his chair gracefully, and looked at his wristwatch, 11:27… 'This is going to be a very long day'.
…
Approximately 2 hours 56 minutes 41 seconds 6 milliseconds 23 microseconds 72 nanoseconds - okay you guys count the rest…- later Sesshoumaru reentered his office, felling a little better after kicking…verbally other Board members, Department Heads, secretaries and…Jaken physically. But he was irritated that his father skipped office today, today of all days.
He wasn't feeling any good; his head was still mildly throbbing even after more than one and half days of his little escapade, his vow to himself to never touch alcohol again.
*knock knock*
Sesshoumaru looked at the door to bid enter to whoever that was knocking. A second later the door swung open, but no one was at the sight. Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes in curiosity, then a little ebony head poked in with a soft whisper, "Sesshoumaru-sama…"
His eyes widened marginally, "Rin, Rin you are…here?" he stood up, pushed his desk aside and took a tentative step towards the girl.
But then, all of the happenings of previous day came crashing in his mind, stopping him dead in his track.
Rin took a small, measuring step to enter his office.
-"NO!" Sesshoumaru growled.
-"Se-Sesshoumaru-sama…" Rin looked horrified. She couldn't believe herself, her, her Sesshoumaru-sama…
-"Go away…go back to your lover, Rin, and never come back here…" Sesshoumaru all but spat.
-"No, no Sesshoumaru, please don't shove me away…" Rin cried out and crushed him in a hug.
Sesshoumaru pulled away, almost pushed her away. He looked away and said in a cold voice, "Rin, never come back to me again…I won't be able to hold myself and do something that I'd regret more than anything ever…please, I'm begging you."
Rin's heart broke; it shattered in a million pieces. Her Sesshoumaru-sama, the proudest man to ever walk the surface of the Earth, is begging her…she can't even believe her ears.
Rin bowed her head, "Okay Sesshoumaru-sama, you'll never see Rin again, never ever…" Rin's voice got constricted with sobs, she ran away.
Sesshoumaru closed the door, locked it behind him, came around his desk and sat down cradling his head in his hands over the desk. His whole body was shaking in grief and anger. With a loud snarl he stood up and pushed everything down from his desk…breaking, shattering, shredding every piece of paper, his laptop, a glass of water…water spilled over the important documents. He roared loudly facing the heaven, a tear trailed down his cheek.
…
Jaken and other employees were standing outside his office door. The roaring and breaking sounds have stopped quite a time ago but the door was still locked.
-"Totosai-san, have you contacted Taisho-sama yet?" Jaken grunted.
-"I've left 73 missed calls and 68 voice messages yet, but no reply, no call back yet. That old fool has turned off not only his personal mobile, but also house phone too…" Totosai huffed.
-"Hey watch your mouth you…you cow…no one calls master with names…" Jaken screeched.
-"Whoa! Be cool toady; it's not like Touga-sama can hear us now." Someone snorted from a side.
-"Whom did you dare to call 'toady'…you insolent child." Jaken started swinging the folder on his hands, overhead.
-"Hey, hey come on toady… we are just joking." He said while duking from the folder assault.
-"Ah, keep your brother off of me, or you'll be coming back to office tomorrow alone." Jaken threatened another man standing beside the previous man.
-"Un, stop picking on toady." Ah stated while trying his best to conceal the laughter trying to come out.
-"Urgh, you fools…let me…" Jaken's threatening suddenly came to an abrupt halt by the opening of the office doors.
Everyone present went still. It felt like someone dumped a bucket of cold ice-water over their head.

Everyone sighed in relief seeing it's not Sesshoumaru's door that opened, instead, another door to their right had opened. A wrinkled old woman came in the hall.
Kaede took a swift glance over the faces of present crowd; then turned to the closed door. Taking a deep breath, she knocked hard.
-"Child, open the door." Kaede chastised when no reply came. She knocked harder.
With a slight grumble the door opened slightly. Kaede pushed it open completely revealing an almost destroyed office behind a disheveled Sesshoumaru, well disheveled clothed Sesshoumaru. His pristine hair and face betrayed the condition of the room and his clothing that had ragged.
-"Come child, let's get home." Kaede spoke gently as she took his hand and led him to the elevator. Sesshoumaru, head still held high, followed behind her. But only after a last look towards the crowd and a bark, "Leave". And the people gathered scattered away as if a bomb had dropped at the middle of them.
In the whole elevator ride neither occupants spoke to each other. Sesshoumaru stood dead silent while Kaede talked to the driver on the phone. When they finally reached the parking at basement, a black car came to them and the driver came out and opened the backseat door to them. Kaede got in and beckoned Sesshoumaru to enter. But he refused with a slight shake of his head and headed to his own car.
