"So soon?"
"Yes, Akito. I hope you don't mind? Not that you can anyway…"
"What's that to mean, Toyoko?"
"Meaning you don't have a choice. This is something I want to make clear to the both of us."
"What is it?"
"I can get you Zodiacs over to my side anytime I want. Without them, you are nothing to the world."
"… …"
"My point will be that you do as I say. I'm not forceful, which is lucky for you, but when I want something, something you can give, you will have to obey."
"Who's the master here? This is my house."
"You were the one who told me to come instead of you to go. I gave you choices, and I will do the same to every command. Choices that you have to make. Let's end our talk here. I'll see you tomorrow morning. By the way, I'm not a bad girl." Toyoko winked and shut the door.
Akito was actually stunned at that moment. "I don't like this feeling I'm feeling. Hurts."
Toyoko got her room, as well as Mingzashi, Ritza and Shimaya's room. She was lying on the bed when a knock came from the door. She got up and opened the door, and was surprised to see Hatori. "Yes?" "I happen to come home from outside, and there's a van waiting. They movers in there said to ask you to come out and meet them," Hatori informed. Toyoko thanked Hatori and closed the door.
Toyoko combed her hair and went out to meet the movers. "You guys are fast. Hope you're just as fast in moving these things," she said cheerfully. She gave directions while they moved their stuff to the right place. In 50 minutes, everything was moved out and in the right place. "That was fast! I was betting on an hour. Looks like you deserve bonuses. Here you go," Toyoko said, giving them extra $20.
The movers thanked her and said that they wouldn't mind helping her again and will work twice as fast. Toyoko just laughed joyfully, and waved when they drove off. Her laughter was so joyful, that those who heard it would have smiled, despite of themselves.
Akito, who had been watching from the window at the very beginning, smiled, despite himself. He thought that he had forgotten how to smile warmly, only to remember how to laugh coldly and sneer.
Toyoko was just about to close her eyes when there was another knock on the door. She moaned and went to see who it was this time.
"We're back!" Shimaya screeched happily. "Alright, I know. Come in, you three. I have to allocate your rooms," Toyoko said, opening the door wide and gesturing them to come in. Ritza and Mingzashi seemed to be glad to be back and lay down on Toyoko's bed immediately.
"Whose idea was it to go out and eat again?" Ritza asked sarcastically. "Alright, it's me, ok? But you were 100 behind the idea at that time!" Mingzashi argued. "Shimaya, why can't you just stay in one place for at least one minute?"
"It's been long since I've been to Tokyo! Of course I must go to every place and have a look!" Shimaya said innocently, which made Mingzashi smile despite her mood. Toyoko smiled too. "Well, that's one of the reasons that I didn't went with you guys to have lunch… Anyway, I'm not hungry either."
"You know us far too well, Toyoko," Ritza said half-heartily. "Yeah, I do," smiled Toyoko. Seeing their leader smiling, everyone in the room, as if affected, smiled as well.
