Chapter seven: image.
Ren had just arrived at the LME Building, for his date with the president, Leaving Yashiro behind, to stop the car, he entered through the actors' side door but when he reached the front lobby, he heard a bang from security. He look at them. They were trying to get a girl out, she was asking them to meet the chief or Tsuruga Ren, it was the same girl from yesterday, but she looked completely different, if it wasn't for the unique color of her eyes, even me , I wouldn't know her. "What is happening here? And what is this noise?". He asked and advanced towards them, more.
They turned their heads towards the sound, and after recognizing it, the girl tried to run towards him and screamed. "Tsuruga-san," but the guard stood in front of her, prevented her from advancing, and he turned toward Ren. He said, "we Sorry for the inconvenience Tsuruga-san, she seems like a nerd fan and is trying to get into the company by any means, we will fire her now." They still refuse to let her in..
"No, let her interfere now.". Ren said. And he was thought It was good she came, and he didn't have to look for her all over Tokyo.
"But. president will_".
"I'll deal with the chief and tell him, Let her in, now." Ren said, so they walked away and let her in.
"I told you, I'm not a fan." Kyoko said she ran towards Ren . She explained. "I told them I wanted to talk to you or to the chief….".
He shook his head and interrupted her words, he said after seeing the faces looking at them,"Let's go, somewhere else."
"But I just wanted…". I protested. shaked his head again.
"not here ". He pointed out his head, at the people around them. He was famous. The press would chase her everywhere if someone took a picture of them together ...He didn't want to cause her trouble.
"Okay ". She answered reluctantly and followed him to the elevator, the doors opened, and they came in. He pressing on the floor the president . it was the only place they could talk and no one followed them.
" Looks like they don't recognize you" . He said after a moment of silence.
"It was, that is required." She said, for the first time he noticed how anxious and nervous those eyes looked, She plays with her fingers nervously.
"What do you mean? ". I inquire.
"How did you know me after that?". I avoided asking his, with another question.
"Your eyes". he answered. Her eyebrows furrowed and she tilted her head, to him in bewilderment,
I muttered. "Pardon? "
"Your eyes...have a special colour."repeat, watch her cheeks and ears turn red with steam rising, from her cheeks from intensity her shyness. She turn her head down. Smile, she looks so cute...
"Ooh…". That's all she said, because the elevator doors opened in front of them.
Ruto is greeted him and told him that the president was still in his meeting, and asked him to wait for him in his office, he nodded his head and thanked him, and went inside to the office then sat on one of the seats. "so-". He Start , but the girl threw her head, her hands on the ground In deep doggies, He even heard her forehead hit on the ground, I smile, never in his life had he seen someone bow down like this, he got up and sat down in front of her , "Miss, what are you doing?" Then he noticed her gasps and trembling, she was crying. "Miss , are you okay, are you hurt?"...
She gasped loudly, tears running down her cheeks. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to get you in trouble." I stammered between crying, but he could only understand a few words, and then I continued. "But I didn't find him… this morning… and I thought he was coming to look for you…..because of what happened yesterday I.. I'm sorry.. sorry, Ren Chan, where are you?"
He put his hand on her shoulder. She raised her head. I smile, at her look, how her eyes, nose, and forehead were red from crying. gave her a tissue to wipe her tears and told her to get up, and let her sit next to him on the sofa, (watch from the corner of his eye, how the president entered the office, and put his finger on his mouth , telling him to continue with her and ignore him completely, Kyoko was immersed in her tears and thinking Little Bryn, so she didn't notice, the president entry.)
"What's your name, miss?"
"Mogami Kyoko". She answered, playing with kerchief with hands.
"Okay, Mogami-san , What is the matter, and what happened to the child?".
She told him how she woke up this morning, how she couldn't find Ren-chan anywhere, how she looked for him all over the restaurant, but she didn't find him, and then came to look for him here, thought he came looking for you, because he thinks you are his father.
"And why does he think that I am his father?". Ren's interrogation
"I don't really know, it's not my son,even. I found him in front of the restaurant and he started calling with me, my mom.".
"Then you don't know his, and when he met you he called you my mother." Ren repeated afterwards, to confirm, and she nodded at head .
"Yes".
"Well, did he tell you who his father is?". Ren inquired about the mention, of his real name earlier.
"Yes, he said his name, Hizuri-kuon and even he numbered some people , and he mentioned the name of Kuu and Julie." Ren paled upon hearing his parents' name, but she persisted, not noticing. "He said They're his grandparents, so I wanted to ask the president yesterday, maybe it's their grandson, and he's lost. or wait a minute." Suddenly she jumped and ran towards her bag where she dropped it, and took out the necklace, and raised her head, at that moment her eyes grew large, she saw a strange man in strange disguise sitting on the desk and he was listening to them .
Ren looked at where her gaze was, "Oh, it's Lory Tacarda, president of LME."
She bowed her head in her usual bow, and began to apologize. "I'm sorry sir, I didn't know you were here, excuse me for my disrespect.".
He waved his hand. "It's okay, don't bother with me, carry on."
She nodded, walked towards Ren, and pushed her hand towards him, she said, "Here."
He raised his head towards her, then looked at her outstretched hand. She was holding a necklace. He took it from her and opened it. He froze when he saw the pictures inside.
"Ren, Ren, what is this?". He heard Laurie calling her from afar, but his gaze was directed at the picture. it's me. with Kuon hair and eyes. But I look older than now, he looked at the girl next to him in picture and then raised his head and looked at Kyoko, it's the same girl.
"Ren, Ren". Lory called him again and put his hand on his shoulder and took the necklace from his hand... looked to picture, then looked at each one of them and then returned to the picture, "So according to this picture he thinks you are his parents?". He ask.
"Yeah, woo..." . Kyoko answered, but her phone cut her off
"Sorry, I have to answer, it's Okami, maybe he's back home."
"Okay ." Ren he said, and he watched her walk away as spoke to the phone with some words, then anxiety and sadness appeared on her face, and her eyes glittered with unshed tears.
"So, is he back?" Ren inquir, when I hung up the phone, and I walked towards them.
She shook her head. "No." She took a deep breath, and rubbed her eyes so as not to cry, but she could not stand it any longer, and some tears fell, until she was crying so hard. "He hasn't come home yet. What if something serious happened to him, and he was hungry or had been kidnapped?"
Ren got up, and was beside her in seconds, "Mogami-san , he'll be fine believe me, we'll find him I'm sure of it.", but that made her cry louder, he reached out hesitantly, and pulled her into his lap, his hand circling her back, up and down, whispering soothing words to her. Because of his warmth, and her concern, she was asleep in seconds, she didn't even care, that she was between my arms of a strange man.. Then Ren looked at the chief and noticed the wide smile on his face, and sighed silently, mutter . "president ".
The chief raised his hands in mock reception, and called out to Ruto. in seconds he was beside him. "Yes sir".
"Take this necklace, and pulled from it the child's picture, and I want you to publish it on TV, and also send it to the newspaper, to be edited and published at once and announce a reward for whoever finds it.".
His assistant nodded and disappeared in seconds.
Ren looked at Kyoko, her breathing was calm, he smiled,She appears to have sleep, she standing, from crying so much. he lifted her in her arms, put her on the sofa and then took off his jacket and put it over her, she muttered in her sleep. "Ren Chan..." She seemed to be dreaming of him, he smiled at her and treaded her hair behind her ear, and tried to get up, but she was holding his shirt,
"It's okay, you can stay with her, Ruto will take care of everything.". Even without looking at him he could hear the evil smile in his words, and the look of love in his eyes. He put his hand on his forehead, and groaned silently at the crazy thoughts coming. Then he heard a knock on the door, and looked at the president questioningly.
"It's Yashiro-kun, I asked him to postpone your schedule for today."
I nodd at him.
Opening the door, Yashiro then entered in a fright. "Sir, what's the matter, why did you ask to cancel Ren's schedule?" Then he noticed him after that. her eyes grew large when he saw the sight before him, he was about to scream, but Ren put his finger on his mouth, and pointed at the sleeping girl, so as not to disturb her.
He nodded, walked towards him, whispered, "Ren, Who is this girl, and why did you ask to cancel your schedule?"
"I'll tell you everything later, have you done what the chief asked you to do?"
"...I'm working on it now. "
"Thank you, Yashiro-san, and I'm sorry to bother you."
"It's okay, Ren, it's my job." Then he took his phone, and went further, making his calls, to arrange his schedule.
"Ren". The president called him and turned towards him. "What are you going to do?"
"I don't know, let's find it first, then we'll see."
Ren -chan was lost in the streets of Tokyo, he couldn't find where his father was, now he's hungry, it was very hot in the afternoon, he didn't eat lunch yet, he was walking and didn't look infront. suddenly, he bumped into someone and he fell to the ground and and injured his leg, in scratches.
"Hey boy, are you okay?" The man said and walked towards him.
Ren_Chan raised his head and looked at him. "Uncle Sho." Then he closed his eyes, and lost consciousness from fatigue and hunger.
