Memory of you

Consciousness

A blank piece of paper… that's my memory… All I remember is my name, Kagome, my origin is unknown, what I did for a living is unknown… I don't even know my family name! Sometimes life can become a cruel game… and in my case, the game has already began.

K.?


"As I have discussed with your company's previous General Manager, this shopping mall in Hokkaido will be strictly upper-class, you can not argue with me on this… since it is our company who is designing."

A stiff pause is heard in the convention room, no one said anything for a minute… and then a quiet, controlling voice rang out.

"Nagashima-san, I'm afraid that you are making a pointless announcement, I do not care whether or not this mall will be strictly upper-class or for the poor only, we are only in charge of purchasing needed land for this development and half of this mall's management facilities. I assure you that our company does not care about the people who are going to shop at this building, as long it makes a good profit for our enterprise." The voice was well-paced, calm… it was a voice of authority.

Kikiyou Higurashi gave the man who was currently negotiating with her the cold shoulder. There was no expression on her pale face while only her rosy lips moved mechanically. She gave off a fume of a sharp ruby that will cut all who gets in her way. Her arm is crossed as she slowly leaned back on her leather chair, showing the two brothers her long legs and expensive high heels. Her amber eyes looked straight at cold golden ones… As if she wanted to make sure they knew that she was the one in charge … no longer would her animated bastard of a sister ever appear in front of them now that she's gotten her place as heir of the Higurashi family back. No one can stop her, not even the two brothers of the most influential family in Japan. Kikiyou touched her diamond H necklace on her neck, it was set in platinum with a thin gold chain. Kagome had one too, the only difference was that it was a rare blue diamond and a ring…it was the ring for the next head of the Higurashi family…

'That ring that should have been rightfully mine…'

The GM of Nagashima Co. raised an eyebrow; it was the first time he has shown any emotion during the whole meeting. The woman sitting across the long convention table seems to have different ideas then her younger sister. Though he had only heard her voice in recordings on the computer when they first started this development plan, Kagome Higurashi was much friendlier and insisted that they talked this over in a coffee shop.

"Nagashima-sama… though it is not my duty to decide what kind of people this shopping mall should be for, I would still like to advise you that this development should be for all the people of Hokkaido to enjoy. Just because normal middle class citizens might not have the power you have, does not mean that they won't have the same grace or sophistication as you. We can perfectly put some affordable shops in this mall and mix these two different classes together. I'm sure that if we were able to succeed in doing this, we'll both achieve higher profits"

'That women… Kagome was it? She seemed to have a completely different approach to the way of business then the woman currently sitting across from me right now. She seemed much more emotional and sociable… Nevertheless, I like the new heir of the Higurashi family better, she seems much more level headed and composed At least she has some chance in the business world. The other women was a complete joke, even trying to change my plans… this Kikiyou woman must've won her place with ease.'

Sesshoumaru's stoic face revealed none of his thoughts; he reached for his espresso with his right hand while carefully eyeing Kikiyou. A trail of thoughts crossed his mind once again as he realized that within a few years, the woman in front of him might just become a threat to his company.

"Higurashi-san, it is very wise of you to not interfere with my plans, we each have our own responsibilities, I had mistaken you for another. I apologize for that… I would now like to introduce you to our architectural designer for our joint shopping mall. "

Sesshoumaru turned his head to another pair of golden eyes; this one seemed less mature and quite mutinous. The face of this pair of eyes looked somewhat younger, his cheeks had strange pink flush to it, his lips were tightly pinched together as of embarrassed to speak, he was all in all… uncomfortable. Inuyasha turned to the exquisite woman sitting across from his older brother. A strange feeling roused inside of him, what it was, he did not know. However, it seemed difficult to start talking in front of her, and even more challenging to start a discussion with her tranquil yet magnificent amber eyes staring straight at him. Her Dior Poison perfume really seemed to be poisoning him.

Of course he had to start talking soon, or else Sesshoumaru would've given him another ludicrous lecture on how he was disgracing the family and how great the company would be without him. He looked at Sesshoumaru, and found that he was paying no attention what so ever to this, instead he was looking down at his cell phone.

Inuyasha sat up and started talking in the most professional voice he can muster at this point.

" I'm the architectural designer of this development plan, as you can see in this blue print I've just given you, the completed building would betwo stories with bullet proof glass and black marble floor. There would a total ofeight spiral stair cases that would take our costumers to various parts of the mall and four glass elevators for the lazy ones. At the center of the first story, there will be a white marble "wishing" fountain. The international shops will be on the first floor, the domestic ones on the second, I'm sure our costumers will find this convenient. This building will be star shaped with five coffee shops and five restaurants in all, these shops will be placed on the star's corners. All of the construction will take at the very least one year to finish after your company has purchased the needed land. The total area for this building and it's parking lot will be 99,527 square feet."

Kikiyou's eyes narrowed at the area needed for the building, she too sat up straight and put her hands on the table. She messaged her forehead and started talking. Her raven hair that was tied up in a bun didn't seem to be so neat anymore.

"100,000 square feet is not a small number for us to acquire. Hokkaido is… a very busy place, even if it is way up north. We would have to spend a lot time and money to obtain so much land… Is there possibly any way…to… well… shrink it by half?"

Both brothers stood up at this, though for different reasons. Inuyasha seemed to be furious, he hands were clenched in a tight fist… it was his design… no one is changing it no matter what. His face was the color of a red tomato and his eyes looked dangerous. Sesshoumaru, on the other hand, still had that impassive expression on his face.

"Miss, I'm afraid that you have mistaken, we have just received a call yesterday from Higurashi-sama, you father. He had agreed on our contract and stated that our only obligation to you was to summarize our plans to you, and you were to sign the contract tomorrow at three o'clock sharp. If you have any questions, please ask your father. I'm very sorry, but we've just been informed of an emergency, we can not talk with you any longer. Please excuse us."

The two men disappeared out the room and left while leaving a wide eyed Kikiyou in her leather chair, her hands were shaking with fury. Her face now had a slight pink tone to it.


Inuyasha stared at his older brother with peculiar eyes; the perfect business man had just left what might be there biggest client of the year in their meeting room. What could be so important? So important to stop the meeting with the Higurashi Shikon Enterprise?

"So… uh…. Well… where are you going?" He swallowed the lump in his throat and tried to ask the question as mundane as possible…

'Though it's so hard to talk to Sesshoumaru sometimes… fine most of the time.'

Sesshoumaru glared at his half-brother, loath was in his eyes, his mouth narrowed… " I got a message from Doctor Touki during the meeting… the girl's awake" He looked straight ahead in to nothingness as he answered Inuyasha's question.

"And we are going to see her right now… I will not tolerate you disgracing our family any more then you already have, and you will not destroy our stocks. The day she files a law suit is the day you get disowned."

Inuyasha winced a bit, like hell he cares " I not going with you just because you are going to disown me… like hell I care about that. I just want to see how the girl is doing. So shut your crap!"


The hospital lights were far too bright for their own good, for they shined upon people of the dead and their grieving family. Two men in suits walked quietly down the hallway until they came to a sign labeled "Intensive Care." An apathetic man with a diamond ring that had a moon embracing the letter N on his left index finger stopped to talk to a blushing woman at the reception desk.

"We would like to see Doctor Touki." It wasn't a request; instead, it was a command. Yet, the woman didn't seem to mind at all.

"Yes, sir… ummm, Doctor Touki is in… uh… Room 638." It took several minutes for her to get the sentence out of her mouth. All this happened while Inuyasha smirked behind his brother's back. This was rewarded with a glare by the woman.

As they "strolled" down the hallway to Room 638, women grinned and giggled, they pointed and gave both men flirty winks. Inuyasha shivered as Sesshoumaru returned the looks with the same stoic expression.

'Women are pathetic…' For once, the two brothers shared the same thoughts.

As they reached Room 638, Doctor Touki came walking out, he closed the door behind him. His had blank expression from surprise, his face was pale, Sesshoumaru was going to found out why after he started talking.

"Sesshoumaru-sama… good afternoon. I'm sure you're here to inquire about patient of Room 638's health… I'm very sorry to inform you that you won't be able to see her in person until a few more hours, for I just stabilized her… You see… it seems like this girl… …. This girl..." Doctor Touki tried to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Inuyasha was growing inpatient…God this doctor was so stupid sometimes...

" This girl what old man?"

Doctor Touki looked at him with freight,…

"It seems that this girl has temporary Amnesia."
