Disclaimer: Thanks for the reviews, and I really want to say that I do not consider Geishas to be fancy waitresses, I worship Geishas, that was just a hurting comment and besides I clearly stated that the place where Michiru works isn't a real tea house. So here comes the last chapter…. Just kidding.
Oh the chapter is timed after the last one that same night to be precise.
How could you?
Chapter 9: The date
Michiru was in a very good mood tonight, she wasn't sleepy or light headed today; talking to Haruka had proved to be the best medicine for her sorrows. She was wearing a blue silk kimono with seashells, she was very pretty. Her clients of tonight were some kind of business men; she was supposed to sit near the chairman.
Sake run out fast, Michiru was smiling and looking very concentrated on the talk but the truth was that the men were so drunk she couldn't follow the conversation. At some point Mr. Chairman accidentally put his hand on Michiru's thigh, she gently remove it with no comment but 5 minutes later there he was again.
"Please sir, behave "
"Come on sweet I'll tip you fine"
"Oh please be nice" She was being as polite as possible she wanted to slap the man but she keep on smiling.
The battle began between Michiru and the man's hands, he was all over her and Michiru was 30 seconds from freaking out, all the other persons on the room weren't paying any attention to her problems.
"Cut it out!"
"Oh don't act like you never do this"
"Stop it!"
Suddenly someone came to her rescue and lift the creepy guy. "Come on Bill live the girl alone"
"I'm just having fun Alex"
"Go refresh yourself"
"Fine"
Michiru saw her hero, the young man how save her had been sitting in front of her all evening, she hadn't really paid attention to him. "Thank you"
"Sorry about Bill, he's nice guy…when he doesn't drink"
"Right, can I offer you some sake?"
"No thanks, maybe some tea"
"I'll go get it" Michiru left the room to go fetch some tea and to relax herself, for a few moments she had panicked, when she came back she kneeled next to the young man. "Here you have"
"Thanks, I'm Alex and you are..?"
"Michiru" Michiru looked at him for a few seconds and then got an insight. "Alex? As in Alexandra?"
The young man looked surprised. "How did you find out? Usually it takes a lot more time for people to find it out"
"I got some experience" So her hero was a woman, a pretty but butchy woman (what a coincidence no?)
"Oh, I guess then you won't go out on a date with me or would you?"
"What? A date?" "I don't know"
"It's because I'm a woman?"
"No, it's just that…I don't know"
"Come on I practically saved your life"
"Well"
"Let me ask you out on your day off, or is it because you got a boyfriend?"
"No, I don't have one"
"A girlfriend then?"
That was like getting salt on a wound, a painful sting run trough her spine. "I cannot wait till the day Haruka will notice me, besides it's just a date, I won't even kiss her, and she's right, she save me" "No, no girlfriend, fine I'll go out with you"
"Great! So when's your day off?"
"Tomorrow, I'll give you a card with my address"
"Fine, so it's a date then"
(I bet you didn't see this coming, I'll try to update as soon as my beloved laptop came back from service.
What would happen now? You'll find out sooner if you write me reviews! See you)
