Time was CRAWLING....

Chapter 6: Confusion

Isabella was always good at putting things together; after all, she was a pattern designer. But to George, nothing would have been quick enough. 3 days after Isabella said she would take care of thing, he was still in his office, doing nothing. He sat at his huge desk, surrounded by the things he had accumulated over the years, yet his eyes only lingered on the picture on his desk. That picture from a moment in his past, more innocent than he could ever dream of anything of his to be. Her eyes, her hair, her perfect body in HIS dress.
"George"
Julie had walked in while George was lost in thought. She walked in, looking as pretty and pert as usual in a lemon yellow business suit with a white ruffled top that spilled over on both sides of her collar. Julie placed the portfolio she held on George's desk, and looked questioningly at her handsome boss.
"George? What's wrong? Are you okay?" she asked, sitting down in the blue clients chair in front of George.
She's asking me if I'm okay? Oh yes, I'm perfectly fine. Just the woman I love is being ABUSED and there is nothing I can FUCKING do about it! George wanted to scream at her, at someone, but most especially, he wanted to kill that man who did this. No, not kill. He wanted to rip his heart out and feed it to the birds. Instead, he forced a smile (being George, it was a wonderful smile), "Darling, something wrong? hah! The only things ever wrong with me is how amazingly perfect I am." Julie rolled her eyes and gave a little laugh as she rose from the seat. "That's from Isabella. She wanted you to read it." She then walked out of the room.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

George didn't even notice that she left the room. The folder that Julie left was dark purple, with black borders and a large white rose in the corner (Isabella's signature). The large words "Paradise Kiss" was stamped on it, like the rest of his official files, but this folder had a photo of a familiar model on front. He picked up the folder, and read through the contents. After reading, George stood still, smiled his half smile, more at ease then he had been in the last 2 weeks. He grabbed his coat, blew the picture of Isabella on his wall a kiss and left the room.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Dilemma!" yelled Isabella softly (she was a lady, she would never yell loudly.) Her supporting team looked at her in shock, she never spoke that loudly before. As her design team got over Isabella's"outburst", theyraged on to finishtheir work beforetheir deadlines, leavingIsabella at her desk, looking at the e-mail on her computer screen.

Ay Isabella!
Miwako and I cant make it tonight. She has a problem with some production schedule for Happy Berry and you caught me on a concert week. We can fly up next Friday at the earliest. Tell Jho-Ji that whatever the hell he wants can wait until our lives are settled. -Arashi

Isabella sat at her chair and read this e-mail over. She let out a frustrated sigh, thinking the situation over. Even if Miwako would, of course Arashi wouldn't drop his life to come to America when George would not let Isabella tell them the situation. He wanted to tell them when they got here. Oh George Thought Isabella. She printed out the e-mail to take it to George to try to convince him to let Isabella tell Miwako and Arashi what was really going on. As she stood to leave, her computer beeped, signaling that she had just received a message. She sat back down at her computer, and opened it, expecting business mail.

ISABELLA!
Miwako saw the e-mail that Arashi sent to Isabella. Of course we can come! Don't listen to Arashi, he's just in a bad mood because his newest CD is only number 4 on the charts right now. But that's what he gets for not fixing the song title from"you ripped out my blood pumping organ" to "Broken hearts." Miwako TOLD Arashi that the public dosent like blood pumping organs!! Arashi still doesn't listen to Miwako, even after6 years. Oh! Listen to Miwako talking about herself. Anyways, Miwako and Arashi will be there in 7 hours okay? Miwako bought tickets, so Miwako will be at Isabella and George's office soon!

Miwako Loves You!
-from the office of Happy Berry, Vice-president

Isabella stood up and ran to George's office to tell him the good news that Miwako and Arashi were coming very soon. She reached his office, and knocked on the door. When nobody answered, she slowly opened the door, only to find nobody in the office.
"Oh George! I told him to stay here!" sighed Isabella, as she walked to his desk to look at his schedule, looking to see where he could be. When she reached the desk, she saw that nothing was written in his schedule for that time. She sighed again, and was going to walk out of the office when she saw a folder with the her official rose in the corner sticking out from under a pile of paperwork. I don't think I sent anything to George for a while... she walked back to the desk and opened the folder and looked through it. The first page read:

George Darling,
I know that you have been worried for the past 3 days, but Im pleased to say that I now have the whole thing planned.
We are to meet Arashi and Miwako in an hour in front of Yukari's apartment home. She lives at Broadway,apartment number . Don't be late, I arranged this meeting, so I don't want you to miss your only chance to get back with Yukari.
I will meet you there, I'm swamped with paperwork.
Ciao
-Isabella

Isabella rechecked the address in the letter, threw the folder to the ground and ran out of the office. She went back to her chair, grabbed her scarf, muffler, purse and coat and called for a company Mercedes. Something was wrong, Dreadfully wrong she thought. Not only did she not send this message, she recognized the address on that messageas Andrew's house.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

George reached the address, and took the elevator to the 14th floor, to where the address on the message stated. He was surprised that this is where Yukari lived, It was nice, but oh-so upper middle class. I thought that Yukari lived in a more expensive apartment...? George thought, as he reached the apartment number that was stated on message. Gathering his thoughts, he knocked on the apartment door. A few seconds later, a somewhat familiar female voice rang from inside the apartment, "One Second!" George stood, apprehensively for the door the open. Finally he heard the door unlock from the inside, and he prepared to finally see the woman he loved after years of separation. The door opened, and George stood shocked. The woman inside the apartment was Julie.
