Chapter 4
The door rang, startling Kaoru's wits. She looked behind her shoulder and swallowed painfully. 'The monster has come', she thought.
Misao came out from her room and said, "I'll get it." Kaoru stopped in a near shout and shook her head, "I'm sorry Misao I shouldn't have done that! Take Kenji in your room"
Misao nodded her head just to placate Kaoru and went back inside her room bringing the child with her.
Kaoru approached the door and was about to open the door when her Auntie called out and gave her a pleading look then went to the kitchen. With a trembling hand, Kaoru opened the door slowly and almost shut it on her visitor's face if not for the anger that overcome her senses. She took a hasty step back and said, "Where's you brother? Isn't he supposed to be at my door not you? Well, you are not welcome and I certainly didn't invite you here!" Kaoru stuttered uneasily. She was about to close the door when his powerful hand suddenly slammed up against it, forcing it out of her tense clutch and flattening it back against the wall. He strode in and closed the door behind him.
"I said you are not welcome" Kaoru murmured, suddenly afraid of the man who strode in her apartment.
Kenshin saw fear in her gaze and almost smiled with pure pleasure. "That is where you are wrong, sweetheart."
Kaoru blushed from his endearment and almost use her fist to strike him again.
He continued, "Your Aunt said that I will be very welcome in your apartment. And besides I want to talk about my nephew."
Kaoru's hear was thundering a frantic drumbeat as she gazed at the man in front of her. He looked taller than her with that black business suite he wore and he certainly look intimidating a lot. "Your nephew?" Kaoru asked, unable to keep the surprise out oh his voice.
Kenshin nodded, letting his actions speaks. He walked towards her while she backed away from him. He kept waiting for her to speak up, when she didn't his impatience got the better from him. "Yes we are going to talk about my nephew." He said gruffly
Kaoru nodded and whispered, "I heard you the first time." She looked behind her shoulder and found out that she's the only one in the living room, correction only the two of them. "All right, we'll talk but in my terms." She demanded hastily.
"What are your terms?" Kenshin asked casually as though he has the time of the world
Kaoru stared at his eyes and her knees started to buckle, they were golden frost or more of amber. Cold Amber. She swallowed bitterly and took a deep breath, "First, you will not shout in front of me or I'll kick you out of my apartment. Second, you only have thirty minutes to talk whatever you want to discuss with me. And the third, you cannot see my nephew." Kaoru said
"But he is my nephew too!" Kenshin said in a piercingly cold voice
Kaoru almost winced from the coldness and the threat wavering in his eyes. "My terms or nothing?"
"All right, your terms." Kenshin accepted, narrowing his eyes in amber specks.
"So what about my nephew?" Karou asked, she could nearly read his eyes. She turned her back at him and proceeded to the couch.
Kenshin looked at the petite form walking away from him. Her hair was in a tight bun in her head and he doesn't know if it's black or blue. She's wearing black dress that reaches her knees and it doesn't show any figure of her at all. Her complexion is pale and her face is make-up free. Her head held high in defiance and her hands are clenched tightly at her side. He followed her every step, 'I was here' he thought, 'being forced to deal with a woman I almost despised in a situation in which I had no defense.' He gritted his teeth. "I want to talk about his future!" He studied her as an indestructible opponent that he couldn't hurt physically
Kaoru stopped and whirled around, "What about his future?"
"His future is with his us!" He said impassively
"You can't take him way from me. He is my nephew" Kaoru argued
"Your nephew" he mimicked "is my brother's son and undoubtedly he who should take care of him and give him the life he deserve and born by right."
"Are trying to tell me that you are taking my nephew?"
"That is exactly what I'm trying to tell you. My brother wants to take care of his son by all means!"
"Then why isn't he here? If he wants to take care of his son, he should be the one to get him."
"My brother is ashamed to face you…" Keshin started but was cut off by Kaoru,"Then you can't take the baby away from me!"
"God, you're such a stubborn nuisance!"
"Hah! We'll you're the disgustingly imbecile!"
"Are you telling me I have weak mind?"
"That is what I think of you. Now get out of my house!"
"Listen woman, for the last few days I am controlling this rage inside me to throttle some sense in that sticky head of yours. I am here because of my nephew not because of you. If you would be as hospitable as some people would be, I would love to tell you that we have the right on that child as you do!"
"Listen, man! I don't think you get it, do you? If your brother wants the child, he should be the one to get it and not his over ego brother. And besides your brother doesn't want the child in the first place because he didn't marry my sister"
"Marriage is nothing to do with the child."
"Doesn't? Let me tell you this mister, the child was born illegitimate because of your weak brother, or whatever you call him, then your are here telling me that you have the right! I can't believe I'm hearing this!"
"Believe it, because I'm taking the child."
"If you lay a finger on my nephew, we will see each other in court!"
"What do you want? Do you want money? If money is what you want. Tell me instead of this unspeakable thing of having a great affection for the child."
Kaoru seethed, "I don't want your money. And I as sure as hell would never take a single penny from you or your brother. And that's it!"
"Are you using the child for revenge? Is that it, which is why you wouldn't give us the child?
"If revenge is the only use of that child I should have made my mind to bankrupt you and your brother in the first place. Besides your money are filthy as the owner of it"
"You know woman…"
"get out now! It seems that you've exceeds your time limit!"
"I'll be back for the child."
"Don't wish it mister because I won't give him back to you."
Kaoru was about to put Kenshin out of her apartment when the door on one of the rooms opened, revealing a distressed child and an angry woman.
Misao was having the trouble to calm the child because of the shouts coming from the living room. At first, Misao tried everything just to calm down the child but her patience was wearing thin. She went out bring the child with her. She looked at Koaru and said, "Will you and your visitor lower your voice. You are affecting him." She said sternly and looked at Kaoru "It would be better if you…." Misao paused and looked at Kaoru's visitor.
Kenshin looked at the recognition on the other woman's face. He gave her a threatening glare and proceeded towards the door.
Misao shut her mouth when the man gave her the "you-better-not-tell-her" glare. She bowed her head and went back to her room.
Kaoru was left alone to contemplate what had just happened. When Misao revealed herself, Kenshin stopped trying to argue with her and walked out of the apartment as Misao went back to her room. Kaoru frowned and started to go to her room when her Aunt appeared from the Kitchen.
"I do not think that you should have said that he was imbecile." Sakura said
"Auntie, I don't care wheter he was affected by that statement or not." Kaoru said
"Will you look at that handsome face? I don't know if your words had done justice."
"Will you stop being impossible. He's ugly and totally unnerving. That is what I think of him." Kaoru suddenly felt a knot twisted in the pit of her stomach. She doesn't know if it is because she hadn't eaten dinner or is it because she said that the man in her apartment was ugly and unnerving, either way she shook her head and said, "Good night Auntie." And went to Misao's room just to look at her nephew.
Misao was having a second thought if she was going tell Kaoru who that guy was then Kaoru entered her room.
"How's my cute nephew?" Kaoru asked
"He's the same as ever." Misao whispered
"What has happened to you as though you've seen a ghost?"
"Not only ghost but the most terrifying creature in the whole world." Misao exaggerated.
Kaoru laughed at her friend's description and sat on one of the chairs. Misao was relieved and laughed with Kaoru too. When they got hold of their selves Misao said the first thing on her min. "You know Kaoru the guy in your apartment a while ago is the guy who saved you and brought you to Dr. Gensai's clinic. He was also the one who paid for your expenses." Misao said cheerfully.
Kaoru just stared at her friend unable to comprehend what she had just said.
