Chapter Seven: All Roads Lead To Tokyo

It had been a couple of days since Derek had gotten to Tokyo. He'd adjusted to the environment and the surroundings, just not the language. He remembered the first day he got here. He had to get a language translator to help him understand what people saw and so they could understand him.

--Flashback--

Derek looked out of his window. He could see that they would be landing soon. You could see the exotic trees, the beautiful flowers, the active wildlife, and the loco citizens. Derek sighed as his plane landed safely on the ground. He never told this to anyone he was afraid of flying. Not because of heights but because of the fear of crashing.

He walked down the steps as he begin walking towards the rows where his lounge was. He quickly looked for his black and brown suitcases and soon found them on the second row. Derek grabbed his bags as he walked to the beginning of the road and looked around. Tokyo was kind of like Canada. A little different. The only difference was the cars, the people, the trees, the wildlife, and the nature. Okay so there was a big difference.

Derek made his way of to a large building with a huge sign reading The Holiday Inn.

"This is the place.", he sighed to himself before pushing the doors. He looked around. There was a underground pool in the lobby. An underground pool in the lobby! Derek grinned as he saw a hot tub and Jacuzzi right next to it.

"Amazing.", he smiled as he walked to the front desk. He looked at a eldery woman named Cindy Theriot. She smiled politely at Derek,

"Can I help you?", she asked.

"Yea, I'm Derek Venturi and I have reservations here for three months.", he replied. She nodded as she begin to type quickly on her computer.

"Why yes, here it is. Suite 195. Here's the key. Fred can so you. Fred can you show this young gentlemen to his room?", she asked. Derek turned to face a middle aged man with blonde hair and green eyes. He reminded Derek on his dad. Except the green eyes. He nodded as he waved for Derek to follow him. Derek headed into the elevator as he watched the doors closed.

"What floor am I on?", he asked as he watched Fred press a few buttons.

"Seven.", he replied. Derek guessed he didn't know much English. Derek looked up at the glass screen showing what flight they were on, but they were Japanese numbers which Derek didn't understand. So he waited patiently for the door to open.

After about five minutes of waiting it finally did. Fred walked out as Derek followed. He lead him to a room marked Suite 195.

"Here you go.", Fred replied as he waved his arm to Derek as the door open.

"Thanks.", he replied as he kicked the door shut. Derek placed his bags down as he walked around his room. There was red wallpaper on his wall with tan carpet. His bed was huge. He walked to a set of doors and openned them to reveal a large balcony. Derek walked out as he placed his hands to his mouth. "HELLO!",he shouted before closing his door. This was an amazing hotel.

--End Of Flashback--

Derek walked to his room and grinned as he saw an envelope in the slot on his door. He grabbed it and ran into his room as he shut the door. Derek fiercely openned the envelope and pulled out ten dollars and a letter.

Dear Derek,

Russia is a great country. It really is. When I first got here I noticed that there was many things I didn't have at home here. Like there's these beautiful flowers. I don't know the name yet but I will. I also noticed how different people's custom's were. I already when to a market sale. It's like a craft show. There's many of booths set up with amazing items. Well anyway the citizen's are expected to wear their Sunday best. It was a wonderful experience.

My hotel room rocks this world. I have fabric on the walls with carpet, a canopy bed, and a balcony. I love going out there to read at night and think. It's so peaceful and quiet, I just simply love it all.

I've also made some new friends. There's this girl and her mom who lives next door to me. Her name is Lena. We've begin to do some great bonding. As a matter of fact, she's the one that I went to the sale with. I also made friends with on of the workers here. Her name is Rosie. We've all become one big group of friends.

I've also been doing some thinking Derek. About us. I've been thinking about it for a while now, actually. And well I've come to the conclusion that if you want something in life you have to work for it and you can't look back. And I've been doing that for some time now. Well I'm through with turning back. You have to look for the furture and take it one step at a time. Derek I want us to be an us.

Love,

Casey

Derek set the letter down on his bed. He had what he wanted. Casey. Casey said yes. No he just had to wait for this trip to be over to finally get to see her and kiss her like he'd never kissed anyone. Derek fell on to his bed as he held the letter. Casey had did it. She'd captured his heart.
