Chapter 5: The Next Day
The next day the Souma house was buzzing with anxioty. Yuki, Kyo, Shigure, and Tohru had come to the main house upon receiving an emergency call from Hatori. Ayame, Haru, Momiji and all the other Junishii were there as well. As the grim visitors entered Hatori informed them that Akito was dead and swiftly fled the room. It was a tearful bunch. Even Tohru began to cry even though she had never gotten close to Akito. Yuki, sat very very still in a corner of the room. When Ayame saw his still stance he growled, "You heartless boy, I know he was cruel to you but he was your cousin." Yuki ignored the remark knowing that Ayame was just frustrated as they all were. His eyes lit on Tohru. Suddenly feeling bad about how badly he had been treating her, he rose and walked to her and touched her shoulder.
Tohru felt a hand on her shoulder and looked up to see Yuki. He was looking mournfully into space. She felt relieved, maybe he wasn't mad at her after all. Her sobs lightened. Suddenly an unexpected visitor walked in.
Machiko stepped in the door. Yuki, though shocked to see her was stunned by her beauty as he had been every other time he saw her. The other men in the room also were too stunned to ask any questions.
"Yuki! I heard the news and had to come!" she said looking very sad indeed. "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Machiko, a school friend of Yuki's." The crowd nodded and upon seeing puzzled looks on Tohru's and Kyo's faces she answered their unspoken question. "I'm a sophomore, perhaps that's why you don't recognize me. I know Yuki from Student Council."
Several men jumped up to offer her a seat and drinks. Soon they were all speaking and laughing and had somehow forgetten about Akito's death. Machiko smiled and chatted with all of them. All the girls looked up to her as they would to a goddess and every man was jealous that Yuki got to see her at every student council meeting. At first Yuki had been a little surprised, "Why did she lie to my family saying that she was in student council with me and how did she hear the news?" After a while though he had forgotten his doubts and stared mystified at her rippling hair.
