Two Years After: part 3 – About to meet the executives

"Wow Gaku, nice ride. I thought you sold takoyaki," said Riiko as got into the backseat of Gaku's Mercedes Benz with Soshi.

"I did, but the owner sold the company a few months ago."

"So you went back to Kronos Heaven," asked Soshi.

"Not exactly."

"Well Kronos Heaven is the one who bought it," said Gaku as he turned the corner into an alleyway that looked vaguely familiar to the two in the backseat.

"Oh… Why?"

"No idea, but I still sell takoyaki just in larger quantities though."

"So if you do that then why are you the one taking us to Kronos Heaven," asked Riiko as she saw the wormhole thing looming ahead.

"Not the slightest clue doll, just following the boss' orders. I'm just a simple working man trying to get by, you know."

"…," said the pair in the pair in the back as they passed right through the wormhole thingy and saw the Kronos Heaven building before them.

"Well here's headquarters, follow me," said Gaku as they walked out of the parking area and into the main building. "Oh, hi Rita," said Gaku as he passed the front desk in the lobby heading towards the elevators.

"Good morning, Gakipoo," said Rita with a wink.

"Who's she," asked Riiko as she tried to stifle both her and Soshi's laughter by covering their mouths.

Giving an exasperated sigh Gaku replied, "If you must know, she's my girlfriend."

"I don't get it, how can the cosplay kid get a girlfriend," muttered Soshi.

"I'm not into cosplay, it's my work attire," said Gaku who had clearly heard Soshi's comment.

Quickly changing the subject Riiko asked, "So uh who exactly are we going to meet?"

"The board of director's," said Gaku.

Ting pong tweetle toot pelogling, fweet ka bung ka bung bam bam bam takka takka takka ching ching hah!! Pelog--

"Uh… Gaku, I think that's your cell phone ringing," said Riiko a little freaked out.

"Huh? Oh so it is. Excuse me. Hello Gaku Namikiri here. Oh hello sir… Yes sir, we're riding up the elevator as we speak sir… No sir, they're just as out of the loop as I am sir. Very good sir. We're here sir. Alright, goodbye."

"…"

"…"

Ding went the elevator as the door slid open, revealing a lavish and beyond that a large front desk.

"Hello there, I believe we're expected," said Gaku.

"Yes, well actually I'm sorry Mr. Namikiri, but it seems as though that is only Miss Izawa that is cleared to enter. So if you and your friend would please take a seat …" said the receptionist as she gestured toward the sitting area.

"What," exclaimed Gaku and Soshi simultaneously, but before the receptionist could reply, Riiko reasoned with them and they went to sit down with Gaku grumbling as he went.

"Are you sure I'm not allowed," asked Gaku from where he was sitting and the receptionist nodded and then seeing Riiko look questioningly at her as to in what room she should proceed to she pointed down the hall and to the only door on the left.

As she neared the door Riiko heard the childish voices of the executives, though she couldn't quite catch what they were saying because the door was muffling the sound of their voices. Just as she was about to knock on the door Soshi called out to her and said, "Riiko, if you need me just shout and I'll be there in a heart beat." She replied to this by nodding and then she took a deep breath and knocked on the door.

Takoyaki- octopus balls.
