Chapter 4
Tokugawa residence
Evening
Daichi walked into the front foyer and met Louis, who took his bike leathers and hung them up in a craftfully hidden closet in one of the walls.
"Master Daichi? A mister Mitsunari is waiting for you in the guest lounge." Louis said as he pointed to the doorway where Mitsunari was walking from.
"Evening Sir." Mitsunari said as he extended his hand and bowed. "Your father requested I assist you in your venture."
Daichi gave the man a slightly irritated smirk. "That's nice. I don't think I asked for any help did I?"
Mitsunari followed Daichi back to the guest room. "Please don't be distressed Sir, You father was just wanting to make sure that you're free to better concentrate on the important asspects of marketing and distribution. I'm mearly to handle the excessive details of finances, law and..."
"Spying on me?" Daichi replied. "You can be honest Mitsunari, I know my father has some issues with what I'm doing."
"There is nothing of the sort to my appointment Sir, I can assure you." Mitsunari said as he took a cup of coffie from Louis.
"Well...in any case? Don't call me Sir, it irritates me." Daichi took a seat and gave Mitsunari a notebook. "This is my progress so far. I'll need legal research done on both "Higuchiro Global Agro Concern" and "Matchimoto Distributors LTD." Also I'm researching two more agrocultural companies in Nishima Province for growing the berries, I need their backgrounds as well."
"Yes." Mitsunari replied with a nod. "I will attend to these at once. I do want to inquire however about a concern of your fathers? Your current relationship with this "Astro"?"
"Bring it up again and you'll be ass up in the street with a boot." Daichi snorted. "And you can tell my father that from me. It's none of his business. Do we have an understanding?"
"Yes..." Mitsunari said before he excused himself and left Daichi alone.
Morning
Tenma residence
Astro felt a surge of warmth course through his body. Sensors were going off like crazy in his head, there was a strange electric tingling on his lips and he was still half asleep when he reached up to feel...the hair?
Something strange was going on...something strange and yet...and yet he was liking whatever it was. It wasn't dangerous, that was certain and the more he moved his lips around...the better it got.
At least until he opened his eyes to find Uran planting a sloppy kiss on his lips?
"AAAAAAAHHHH!" Astro thrashed wildly around and rolled off his bed and onto his head. "GNAH! URAN!"
"You know it's time to get up for school big brother?" Uran said as she rubbed her hair.
"Ugh! You were kissing me!" Astro said as he stood up shaking his arms. "You kissed me on the lips! That's so wrong Uran!"
"Big deal." Uran replied. "You were trying to sleep in late to avoid school, I can tell. Any way I needed practice."
"Practice?" Astro snatched up a boot and threw it by her head. "You don't kiss your brother on the lips! If you tell anybody, I'll bounce you all over the city!"
"Relax..." Uran joshed. "You're such a spazoid. You haven't even kissed a girl yet have you?"
"You're totally missing the whole point." Astro replied frowning. "Ugh...whatever, get out of my room."
Uran smirked back. "By the way...if you don't work on improving the fish-like lameness of your kissing? You'll never have a girlfriend."
"GET...OUT!" Astro snapped as he chased his giggling sister from his room then sagged onto the bed.
