The fallen women

Chapter 55 Dress ,undress

Ren tossed and turned the whole night, the bed felt wrong with only him in it and in the brief times that he did manage to sleep dreams of Kyoko marrying Sho or of her running from him, or even worst her being in his arms and then fading away haunted him when his alarm sounded in the morning he was glad to get up and go to work if only to do something to keep his mind off of the fact that Kyoko was in Kyoko at the Fuwa's.

He dressed and got ready in record time and was at Yashiro's place about ten minutes early.

As Yashiro got into the car he looked around "no Kyoko" he asked "I know she's doesn't have any scenes today, but I thought she may still come anyway"

"no, she's not in Tokyo" he said grumpily

Yashiro looked at him in confusion "not in Tokyo, where is she?"

"she is in Kyoto"

"what's she doing in Kyoto, as far as I'm aware she not due there until you are next week, and her schedule was light this week"

"it's not for work" Ren answered shortly, and Yashiro looked at the man beside him noticing that Ren grip on the steering wheel had tighten and his body screamed tension. He decided that the best thing to do would be to move onto a different subject.

"okay, well we are in for a busy day, you have Box R this morning, a guest appearance on a talk show at one. Then you are due on the set for theft at three and tonight after dinner you have a promo photoshoot for the snow tomb"

Ren nodded and continued driving "thank you Yashiro, I'll tell you about it later I promise but for now lets just focus on getting this day over with."

"alright" responded Yashiro

They arrived at the studio and made there way inside to start a full day of work

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Kyoko dressed in her Red Comon Kimono and walked to her little stream , she let the wind play with her hair and smiled as memories of Corn flying came to her, they had ran, played, been happy and sad here .Kyoko dipped her toes she wished briefly that Ren was here with her ,she smiled as she imagined Ren and her on a blanket eating strawberries ,kissing ,touching each other and then making love here in this special spot she shook the images away ,there would be time for that later maybe she could get him to come up early ,no she was pretty sure he had a full schedule for the week . She sighed and headed back to the Ryokan , she had already done two short tea ceremonies today, she had a proper tea ceremony to perform this afternoon and she was going to be doing the dinner shift tonight straight after so she would need to change into her formal golden Hikizuri Kimono . She had just walked inside when Ai ran up to her "Kyoko ,you need to hurry the guests are going to be coming earlier than expected and Fuwa-san wanted to see you before you begun this Afternoon"

"okay, I just need to get changed can you send someone to help me with my Kimono, then I'll head up to see Fuwa-san."

"Hai, I'll let Fuwa-san know you'll be with her shortly and then send someone to help you"

Kyoko smiled as she watched Ai-chan run along the hallway and then headed toward her room she quickly stripped off the Comon taking off everything but her camisole , she grabbed her socks and put them on and then grabbed the juban aligned the sleeves and checked that the hem went to her ankles before she wrapped the front closed first the right and then the left and then loosely secured it with a himo.

She heard a knock at the door and called for the person to enter

"Hello Kyoko, I thought I would come help you, that way we can just talk now instead of having to wait"

"that is fine" Kyoko said feeling a wave of nostalgia as Sukura moved behind her and pulled at the back to help flatten the front. All those years of Sukura doing this came back and just for a moment it felt like nothing had changed.

"the guests were very happy with your service this morning" Sukura said as she grabbed the datejima and processed to wrap it around Kyoko tying it with a pretty bow just under Kyoko's breasts

"I'm glad to hear that, I admit I was a little worried, but it was surprising easy to remember"

Sukura tucked the extra length of ribbon into the band the datejima made.

"you always did do it well" Sukura gathered the outer layer and placed it on Kyoko and then line up the collar seam and lifted it up the material so it just reached Kyoko ankles .they closed it right the right side and then the left and then it was secure with a small knot . Sukura walked behind Kyoko and cantered the back seat and Kyoko evened out the front.

"Do you remember any of the dances" Sukura asked.

"Yes, I remember the basics "Sukura nodded and tied a himo around her

"good, our guests tonight would like to watch some dancing during dinner, and I do not have time to send for a geiko so you will need to do it"

Kyoko nodded she remember that this happen from time to time mostly if the guest was either extraordinarily rich, important or completely unwilling to listen to reason.

"good, I will have Ai-chan help with serving the meals"

They added the next datejima and tied it into a bow in the front

"I've talked with my husband and we have come up with a plan in regard to your marriage contract" said Sukura as she wrapped the obi around Kyoko.

Kyoko took a deep breath "and what have you come up with?"

"we don't have enough time now, to properly discuss it but I would like to have breakfast together tomorrow morning if that is alright"

Kyoko swallowed "Yes, I shall join you for breakfast in the morning"

Sukura checked Kyoko over and added some accessories to her outfit and hair and then put some lipstick on her

"I saw that you book yourself out tomorrow afternoon"

"Yes, I checked that I was free beforehand, I hope that is alright"

"any business is good business"

Kyoko smiled "so they say"

Sukura stepped back and looked at her work " all done ,you have turned out to be rather beautiful Kyoko." She paused "Are you sure you do not wish to marry my son your children would be adorable, and we could give you a stable lifestyle"

"I am sure, I know a life as an actress may not seem very stable, but I really enjoy it"

Sukura nodded "well can't say I didn't try; I should probably let you know my husband is very reluctant to let you dissolve the contract. Anyway, you best go set up the tea house now your guest should be here in half an hour"

"thank you for the assistant, I'll head there now" Kyoko smiled gently at the woman before her and left the room."

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Ren's day had been fine all he had to do at the Box R set was be handsome and elusive and the talk show had been surprisingly easy with very few personal questions but as soon as he had arrived at the theft set it went downhill faster than a tobogganer his head was throbbing as he watch the other actor screaming at one of the poor assistant about who knows what ,half the crew had left and so far they had only managed to shoot one scene.

"how much longer do we have to stay for" Ren asked Yashiro from his seat

Yashiro looked at his watch "your photoshoot doesn't start until seven and I had booked you here until five thirty it's now four fifty so at about an hour.

Ren sighed and then looked down at his phone, it could not hurt to call her right. His finger hoovered over her face, no she would probably be working besides, she had wanted, needed space and he had said he would give it to her. He doubted calling the very next day counted as space.

"Yashiro, could you do me a favour"

"depends what it is" answered Yashiro honestly

"I Just want the address of the Fuwa's Ryokan in Kyoto

"why would you want that, so far anything connected to that name has only bought you trouble "

"I want it because that is where Kyoko is right now, and I need to know where that is exactly so that if she calls, I know where to go"

"Kyoko is with the Fuwa's, why?"

Ren looked annoyed "because her mother's a bitch"

"Tsuruga-san take your place on set please"

Ren stood up and made his way over to the set hoping that this hour would past quickly

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

Kyoko smiled politely as she showed the two men into the dining room and guided them to their seats "please be seated we shall bring your meal out shortly"

The younger of the pair leered at Ai and her as they set the plates before them , Kyoko looked over at the younger girl and then at the men as they steadily drank the sake and ate the food on the table .

She walked over to Ai-chan and whispered, "I'm about to start the dance, if you just clear away the dishes I can handle the rest of it from there and you can head home."

"if you're sure, I don't mind staying for a little while longer" said Ai half heartedly

The two men laughed loudly "more sake" they called out.

Kyoko smiled sweetly and picked up a new bottle to take to the table "I'll be fine ,your shift was supposed to end in half an hour anyway and I'm sure your parents would prefer you home earlier rather than later besides I think these guys will be here for quite"

Kyoko walked over to them and pour the sake into the two cups before placing the bottle in the middle of the table and removing the empty one.

"I will be dancing for you shortly is there anything you would like before my Ai-Chan leaves"

The younger man lent into his friend and whispered something that the other man seems to find particularly funny. He looked up at Kyoko and then slowly ran his eyes up and down her.

"yes, we would like Mochi"

"I'll make sure you get them promptly" Kyoko said sweetly.

She walked to the door and placed their order at the kitchen, she gathered the two branches of autumn leaves and fan before returning to the front of the room. She clapped her hand, kneeled on the floor with the fan in hand and waited for the music to start.

The music started and Kyoko twirled from left to right moving the fan in front of her face and then in a circle ,she glided upward and twisted her arm in intricate movement ,she moved her body from side to side in delicate motion like the wind moving a leaf and the turned her backs to the guest and switched the fan for the autumn branches that she hid her face behind as she turned to face them she lowered the branch and pointed it toward them crossing it over one arm and then moving it back in front of her face, she moved closer to them and increased to speed of her movement until she heard the end of the music approaching so she slowed down and got herself back into her original kneeling position .

The men clapped happily and thanked her for the display.

Kyoko smiled and got up from the floor and removed the equipment from the room and then came back inside with there Mochi's

She had placed the dishes on the table and was about to leave when one of the men grabbed her wrist.

"Your very beautiful, you're not a geiko so how much would it cost me to have you in my bed for the night"

Kyoko pulled her arm out of his "your right I'm not a geiko, but just because I know the dances does not mean I will sleep with you that is not part of my job or a geiko's for that matter"

He laughed "oh yes I know that the geiko's are not for sex but you little ryokan girls are usually up for a good time , after all why do you think I arranged this so last minute. Trust me if I had wanted a Geiko I could have had one but I rather know I have a chance of getting some , I'm a rich man so tell me how much will it cost me to fuck you "

Kyoko glared at the man " sorry to disappoint you but I'm not for sale and I have absolutely no interest in fucking you so if you will excuse me I'll leave you to it"

His friend moved to block the door. Kyoko look at the door and knew there was only one way forward, so she stepped toward him and kneed the man in the groin. He curled into himself and Kyoko stepped around him " I would suggest that you leave this ryokan now" she said firmly before existing the room she made her way threw the ryokan until she found the Fuwa quarter's and knocked on the door .

"who there" said a man on the other side

"it's Kyoko, I need some help with the guests I was serving tonight"

The door opened and Kenji Fuwa stood before her.

"what do you need help with" he enquired

"I refused the proposition made by the guest and his friend didn't handle me rejection well, I believe they may need some assistant leaving"

Fuwa nodded and made his way down the hallway.

Kyoko sighed and head to her room she picked up her phone and Dialled Ren's number

The phone rung three time before he picked up

"hi Kyoko, how was your"

Kyoko smiled and felt the tension leave her instantly

"hmm it was alright, it better now that I'm talking to you"

Kyoko could swear she could hear him smile "it's better now I'm talking to you too"

Kyoko smiled and lowered her voice "are you home yet?"

"no not yet, I'm at the photoshoot for snow tomb but I'll be finished in about half an hour, what about you are you all done for the day"

Kyoko sighed "just finished I was about to get undressed"

Kyoko stood up and held the phone above her and took a photo of herself and sent it to him

"do you like my outfit" she asked

Ren paused and removed the phone from his ear and looked at the photo she had sent

"your beautiful"

Kyoko smiled and started untying her obi she took another photo of herself and sent it to Ren

"I wish you were here to help me take this off"

She untied the datejima and started unwrapped the outer layer she paused and took another photo
"I wish I was too" replied Ren "I'm sorry but their calling me I have to go" he said grumpily

Kyoko sighed in disappointment but nodded "oh okay , goodnight Ren" Kyoko hung up the phone and looked around her she moved the side door and pulled out her futon she lay it on the floor and then set up her phone so that the camera faced her she pressed record and then continued untying her kimono stripping each layer as seductively as she could until she had nothing on , she then pulled the accessories' from her hair and released it from the intricate hairdo she had put it in that morning . She ran her hand threw her hair and then lowered herself on top of the futon she run her hand down her body and cupped her breasts playing with her nipple imagining it was Ren's hand touching her, she slide her other hand down to her pussy and slowly moved her fingers in and out increasing the speed as she picture Ren on top of her ,moving his body with her . she grasped his name as she came. She smiled and crawled over to her phone and stopped the recording she paused for a moment and Sent the video to Ren and a message to only open in private.

She then crawled back to the futon and climbed in closing her eyes and fell asleep.
