Well, this is the moment when Tohru meets Akito. What's gonna happen? Let's find out.
The three teenagers were shocked to hear Akito wanted to meet Tohru. They were nervous all week; they knew Akito can be unpredictable, but they also knew she was very considerate. They had so many hopeful thoughts running through their minds as they made their way to the Main House; Tohru was very nervous about meeting the head of the family because she was not one of them. But her hopes went on the balance when they entered the Main House, and she saw a woman with very long black hair. 'Is she a Sohma?' she thought to herself.
"Is she the one Akito is wanting to meet?" she asked.
"I honestly thought that was Akito," Tohru whispered to Kyo.
"No," Kyo answered. "That's Ren, she's Akito's mom."
"Hatori said he'll be standing outside the room while Tohru is speaking to Akito," Ren told them. "I told him it won't be necessary, but he insisted for just-in-case precautions, knowing Hatori."
Just as Ren said that, Akito came out of the dining hall. She had long black hair down to the middle of her back, black eyes, and Tohru quickly noticed she looked exactly like her mother. In other words, she was beautiful.
"Hi boys," she said before turning to Shigure and giving him a kiss.
"Get a room," said Kyo.
"Not yet," Akito laughed, "I still have to speak to this young lady who I presume is Tohru, right?"
"Uh…yes," Tohru answered, "it's nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you too; I'm Akito, head of the Sohma Family. Let all go into the dining hall. Hatori, you can go back to your office, she's not going have her memories erased at all."
Tohru was relieved to hear she'll be keeping her memories.
"That's good news," said Tohru with a big smile.
"Don't worry about that," Akito reassured. "I'm just going to ask you a few questions."
They all sat down at the table, and Akito began to talk.
"So Tohru, you are aware that we generally don't want anyone to know about this secret; and I hear that you are very good at keeping secrets. So, what is this between you and your grandfather's family?"
"They think I resemble my mother in some odd way," Tohru replied with a sad face. "They were treating me like a burden instead of family. They were not being nice to me at all."
"Well that's not something you should be a part of anymore, I'm just gonna cut to the chase and tell you right now you're staying," said Akito. "Come on Shigure."
Akito and Shigure disappeared into another room and started getting noisy while the three teenagers continued to sit there.
"She comes over every once in a while, just to get all lovey dovey with Shigure," said Yuki.
"I think it's cute," Tohru smiled.
"But what do you think of Akito?" asked Kyo.
"I like her, she's nice," Tohru replied. "She looks just like her mom."
"Every maid here says that," said Yuki. "Akito and her mother have been close since she was born, but they got much closer after her father died when she was five."
That night, Tohru lay in bed thinking about today. 'Looks like everything's going to be okay Mom,' she thought to herself as she smiled and fell asleep.
Read and review, and please be nice. More will come.
