Chapter 14: Photos and food
Kyouya's POV:
I pushed the button and immediately the whole wardrobe glided to the side. What the heck?!
"Well now that you've already opened the door you can just go insight too, ne Glasses?" She said and went through the 'door'. We all followed and to see a plain room, no furniture, no windows. Only a light bulb hanging down from the ceiling. Well, at least it wasn't only white. Different coloured felt-tips lay on the ground, along with a pencil and a ballpoint pen. Next to those things was a little see-through box made of plastic, which was filled with pins. You couldn't even see the walls, everywhere you looked was only pictures, little notes, maps and other stuff. It looked just like a mind-map you can see in TV-shows about the police. In the center there was a picture of a man and a woman.
"W-what is this?" Haruhi asks and Akira smiled.
"It's my.. How should I say it... You could say it's my passion?"
"So, you like to research about gangsters?!" Tamaki shouts.
"That's too dangerous!" The twins add and Akira smiles at them, it was a sad smile, but you could see how thankful she was for their concern.
"Even if it's dangerous, I can't stop. Even if I get hurt, it's worth it. But I really am sorry that you had to see this. Keep your mouths shut, don't tell anybody about this, not even your families, unless you want them to be in danger too." She walks towards the wall with the picture of the man and the women. Then she grabs it and tears it down. She looks at it for a while before she walks to me.
"You wanna know more about me? How you can defeat me?" She smirks and gives me the picture.
"Research about them. But be careful Glasses. If somebody finds out about you they will rip you apart and bury you somewhere you won't be found. I already know that you won't listen to my warnings, but at least tell me if you notice something strange. Even if it seems ridiculous to you." I look at her, she seems to mean what she says.
"Swear it." She demands and I look at her questioning.
"Swear it, Glasses." She repeats and I can see just how serious she is.
"I swear." I nod and she smiles slightly, then she turns around to walk out of the room, mumbling something I barely understood.
"Good. I don't need to find another corpse."
Later at the living room:
Haruhi's POV:
"You guys wanna eat breakfast together with us?" Akira asks and we all nod, still thinking about that strange room.
"Okay, that's great. Sit down, I will join you in a few minutes." She says and turns around, humming a song happily. She walks out of the room and closes the door behind her. We all sit down and look at Honey-sempai and Mori-sempai.
"You two know about that secret room of hers?" I finally ask and Honey-sempai nods.
"Yep, sometimes she is in there for hours or even days. When she's in there she forgets the time and we have to remind her to eat something or to get some sleep." My eyes widen. F-for days? Is it really that important to catch those criminals? Kyouya shows Honey-sempai the photo he got.
"Who are they?"
"Kira's parents." Honey-sempai answers his question, obviously not wanting to talk about them. Kyouya shoves the picture into his pocket as the door opens, revealing Akira who changed her clothes and carries a tray. Behind her were some Maids, also carrying trays. She walks over to us and places everything on the table. Then she hands her tray to a Maid and sits down next to Kyouya.
"Dig in." She smiles and we begin to fill our plates with food.
"So, where are we going today?" She asks and then eats a bit salad.
"To a tropical theme park, designed by the Ootori group." Kyouya answers, pushing up his spectacles.
"Again?!" I ask only to have Tamaki hugging me.
"I am so sorry Haruhi! We just wanted to show it to Akira-chan! We won't go if you don't want to!" I sigh.
"No it's okay. Now, will you just let me go, Sempai?!" Here it is! You have to see it at least once in your life! The annoying sight of Tamaki growing mushrooms! Sigh...
"Delicious!" The twins exclaim, gobbling down the food.
"Of course! Kira-chan made this you know?" Honey smiles. Cake... as breakfast? Okay, I shouldn't have expected something else.
"Akira made this?" I ask.
"Yep, how about we cook together next time? It's quite fun doing it together." She smiles and I nod. Finally! Someone who does know about 'commoners'! Suddenly I heard a loud scream, looking around I saw Tamaki having chocolate pudding all over his face. I giggled slightly until I saw the devious grin on Akira's face.
"Food fight!" She shouts, throwing her pudding at the twins. Both of them instantly joined and even Kyouya began throwing food because of Akira throwing the next pudding at him. The more the merrier. I don't like wasting food, but I guess doing something like this once in a while isn't that bad. Then I joined too.
So this is how breakfast together with Akira is.
