Hey guys. In this chapter I use the names Ranka and Ryoji in the same scene. I kind of use them as Ranka being one personality and Ryoji being another personality. When Kairi is talking to the Ranka personality I use Ranka. When Kairi is talking to the Ryoji personality I use Ryoji.
I wake up early the next morning. After eating and dressing, I leave and head to the local flower shop. I can only afford on flower, so I pick a purple orchid. Those were Auntie's favorite. I pay for the flower and head to Auntie's. When I get there, I replace the dead flower in the vase with the new flower.
"Hey Auntie," I greet. "I wish I could still call you mom. I miss having parents, even if it was short-lived. But I guess I'll be getting another new family. That's what I'm here to walk about. Auntie, I've been offered another extension. I don't know what to do. I'll be getting some benefits, but he'll be getting some that I'm not sure I want to agree to. Auntie, he wants me to 1) live with Tamaki, 2) treat him as a father in private, and 3) marry Kyoya. I can't do that. He's never going to be my father. I don't think I'd be able to treat him as such. I know I'll have to eventually, but this is a lot sooner than I was expecting. I thought I had 6 more years before I had to start treating like my father. I figured I'd figure it out in that time. But, if I agree to this, then I'll have to start doing it sooner. I mean, I guess doing it in private will give me practice. But, even if I do agree to treat him as my father, I can't agree to marry Kyoya. You don't understand how much I hate Kyoya. I literally cannot stand him. He seriously pisses me off. He was such an ass to me. And he still continues to be. He doesn't even try to be nice to me. God he pisses me off. I don't think I can agree to the terms. Thanks for listening. I should probably go. I have some shopping and other errands to run. I'll come visit you again soon. Oh, and Unc wishes he could've come. He sends his love. I'll be going now. Bye."
After all that, I get up and leave. On my way to the grocery store I see Haruhi.
"Hey!" I yell as I run up to her.
"Hey Kairi. What's up?"
"I was just about to do some shopping."
"Nice. That's where I'm headed."
"Wanna shop together?"
"Sure. I'd love the company."
"Sweet. By the way, are you aware that you are being followed?"
"Yeah. I figure it's my dad."
"Not quite."
"Who is it?"
"It's...Tamaki."
"Just Tamaki?"
"Yea."
"That's surprising."
"Why?"
"Because every time Tamaki is following me, the rest of the club is too."
"Weird. No one else is following you. Just Tamaki."
"Hmm. That's really weird."
"Ooo. I just got a good idea." I lean over and whisper in Haruhi's ear. She looks at me incredulously and then nods her head.
We head into the store, buy a change of clothes, and head to the bathroom. When we leave the bathroom we are completely disguised as different people. We set out to find Tamaki.
Once we find him, we start to follow him. As we're following him I notice he's starting to panic. I get a little closer and I hear him panicking about Haruhi and I being kidnapped. I look over to Haruhi and motion towards the bathroom. We go back and change into our other clothes. We approach Tamaki and I put my hand on his shoulder.
"Hey. Looking for something?" I ask him. He turns around quickly.
"OMG! Where were you?! I thought you were kidnapped!" Tamaki exclaims.
"Jesus. Would you keep it down? We've been in here. Why are you here?"
Tamaki suddenly turns pale. "Uh. About that..."
"Yes?"
"I may or may not have been following you two around."
"Really? Why is that?"
"Uh. I...I...I was just making sure that you two were safe!" Tamaki finally exclaims.
"Is that so? Hmm. What do you think Haruhi?"
"I think that make him a stalker," Haruhi states.
Tamaki freaks. "No, I'm not a stalker. I was just looking after my daughters as any father would."
"Daughters?" I ask.
"I'm not your daughter Tamaki. I already have a dad," Haruhi explains yet again.
"Well moving on, Tamaki, Haruhi and I need to finish shopping. Are you gonna continue to stalk us or help?"
"I'll help! What can I do?"
"You can...carry our baskets."
"Ok!"
We finish shopping and leave the store.
"hey Kairi. i just remembered. My dad wanted me to ask you if you wanted to come over for dinner today."
"I should be able to. When I go home I'll ask my Uncle and I'll text you with my asnwer."
"Ok."
We start walking and stop where Haruhi and I have to split.
"Well, this is where I go another direction. Tamaki, what are you gonna do? Are you gonna walk with one of us or leave?"
"Hmm. Can I walk with you Kairi?" Tamaki asks.
"I guess. I don't see why you'd wanna walk with me but sure."
"Yay! Bye Haruhi!"
"Bye," Haruhi replies.
"See ya," I say. Haruhi nods and walks away.
"Are you sure you wanna walk with me?"
"yeah!"
"Ok. Why did you wanna walk with me?"
"I was just curious."
"About?"
"Why you weren't in club yesterday."
"Oh. Uh, it's a long, complicated story."
"I have time."
"Uh. Maybe tomorrow or Monday."
"Aww. But why? I wanna know now."
"Cause I have some things to do first."
"Ok. Fine."
"Sorry. I promise I'll tell you someday."
"Ok."
"Anyway. Hey I have a question."
"Yes?"
"Why were you guys after me in the first place? Like why did you guys want me to join?"
"That's easy. Kyoya."
"What?"
"Kyoya."
"What do you mean Kyoya?"
"I mean Kyoya told us that you should join our club. It's very rare for Kyoya to take an interest in someone so we agreed. I mean, if Kyoya thinks you're good then we'll believe it. I'm really glad he did though. I love your baking and you're an amazing person."
"Um. Thanks I guess. I wouldn't really say I'm amazing but I guess I'll take the compliment."
"Mmhm."
"So, you're telling me Kyoya was the one who wanted me to join?"
"Yeah."
"I'm sorry. Are we talking about the same Kyoya? Ootori, Kyoya? Tall, dark hair, glasses, a Mr-Know-It-All?"
"Yes, we're talking about the same person."
"There has to be some mistake. Kyoya is an ass and treats me like shit. Why would he be interested in me? And then treat me like shit?"
"Do you have to use dirty words?"
"Sorry. It's a habit. I'll try to contain myself around you if you want?"
"Yes please."
"Ok."
Suddenly, we turn the corner and I see my apartment.
"Well, I'm right there. Do you have anyone who can pick you up?"
"Yeah. My driver isn't too far away. I'll call him."
He pulls out his phone and makes a call. When he's finished he hangs up and looks at me.
"He says he'll be here in a couple minutes."
"Ok. Well, I'll wait with you."
"Are you sure?"
"Yea."
"Thanks."
After a couple minutes of waiting a limo pulls up.
'This is my ride."
"Ok. Well thanks for walking me home."
"Of course. My pleasure."
"Bye."
"Goodbye."
He gets in the limo and leaves. I turn around and go into my apartment.
"I'm home," I call out.
"Hi Kairi," Unc greets.
I walk into the kitchen to put the groceries away.
"I went shopping," I tell Unc. "And I ran into Haruhi and Tamaki on the way. And Haruhi asked if I could go over for dinner. And then Tamaki walked me home."
"Interesting. Did you find what you were looking for?"
"Yea. I've made a decision."
"Alright."
"Anyway, so do you think I could go over to Haruhi's for dinner?"
"I don't have any problems with it."
"Ok. I'll let her know."
Hey Haruhi, my Unc is chill with me coming over
-Awesome. I'll let dad know. Does 5 work for you?
Yea that works for me
-Cool. here's my address...
Sweet. I'll be there later
Later that day, i arrive at Haruhi's and knock on the door. Haruhi opens the door and welcomes me in.
"Hey," i greet.
"Hi Kairi," Haruhi greets back.
"How's it going?"
"Good." Haruhi walks into the living room and tells her dad I'm here.
"Hi Kairi! Aren't you just adorable!" Ranka greets.
"Hi Ranka."
Ranka comes over and hugs me.
"I haven't heard from you in a while," Ryoji whispers in my ear.
"Sorry. I've been busy. I have some things to tell you later," I whisper back.
"I'm so glad you could come over for dinner," Ranka states.
"Yea. Me too."
"Well, let's get dinner on the table shall we?"
After we finish eating Haruhi excuses herself to go wash the dishes. Ryoji and I start talking, keeping our voices down.
"So what's up?" Ryoji asks.
"Well, I just wanted to inform you that I've been offered another extension."
"What? So soon?"
"Yea. It's a long story that I'll explain when we have more time."
"Alright. Have you made a decision?"
"I have."
Suddenly, Haruhi walks back in.
"Anyway, I hope you are studying and getting good grades," Ranka says a little louder.
"Yea. I think I'll be fine. Thanks for the advice."
"Of course honey. Just keep it in mind when you're studying."
"Will do. Well, I have a busy day tomorrow so I should be leaving. Thank you so much for dinner."
"Of course honey. We'd love to have you back anytime."
"Thanks. I'll see when I'm available again. Bye."
I walk to the door and leave. I go to bed when I get home.
