Chapter six
The next day, Zero left them around mid morning.
Strangely enough, Kain and he had gotten along, much to both men's fun.
Shindo currently busied herself with trying to close the holes that she constantly got into her socks while Kain checked onto the machines to empty the water tanks. It was right that moment he had finished when the doorbell run. Exchanging a look with Shindo, who shrugged not knowing who that could be, Kain narrowed his eyes and listened. From what he could tell there stood two men outside, in business suits if he wasn't wrong.
Motioning to Shindo to be silent he went to the door.
Both middle-aged men looked rather shady to Akasuki Kain from the start and up at him with surprise written over their features. They asked for Shindo but got only from Kain that she would not speak to people she didn't know in exchange. The older of them grit his teeth at that and the other tried to threaten Kain.
Wrong move, he found out fast.
His partner in crime could only watch unbelievingly when his partner suddenly sailed over the sidewalk right into their shabby looking car. Kain had thrown him easily right into it with one arm only. The two left rather fast after that experience and parting words to them.
"Tell your bosses that I will live here from now on, you greedy little two faced snakes. And if they ask who I am, I am Akasuki Kain, Heir of the Akasuki family. If they want to have trouble with my folks, fine with me. If not, they should leave Nadashiko San alone from now on. I swear, I will hunt them down and roast their asses over a fire pit the very next time I catch one of you slippery weasels bothering her!"
With that he threw the door closed noisily and then he leaned against it with his hands in his pockets. Whistling a happy tune while watching the two conartists leave the area in a hurry with pale faces. In front of Kain, Shindo could just stare at all with an open mouth. incredulity she could only watch him throw out those men… why had they blanched so badly when he mentioned his family?
"Uhm, Akasuki Kun, your family isn't Yakuza or?"
At that Kain stopped to whistle to laugh insanely instead. Shaking his head madly he could only tell her that way for minutes that no, they were not. When he calmed down again he lead a confused looking Shindo back into the living room. Still sniggering madly.
"Ah, no! But my family is widely known under such idiots."
He told her with a toothy grin. "We deal in many a business and so have regularly to do with money sharks and such scum naturally you see. My father can not stand them in any way or form, so he made it clear since opening business that they know it."
The amber eyes danced with mirth when Kain looked at the now mortified looking Shindo who wanted to hide behind a large cushion from his laughing eyes.
Patting her good naturally on the head, Kain chuckled again at her red face, even the tips of her ears peeking out her hiding spot were tinted red from embarrassment. Kain found that utterly too cute. The entire girl was absolutely too cute for words he realized slowly and had to chuckle at that thought.
"However Shindo Chan, we are business men in the second and Vampires in the very first, don't forget that! My family is dealing with such problems since many generations and if one thinks over that, then it is clear that I mean a very long time span here. You would be surprised of how many of the older families of the human business families here know about that. most of the yakuza clans do too, naturally. Having had a run into one of our kind on one occasion or two.
It is bound to happen with such organizations but they keep silent about it.
They know very well what happens to them otherwise. Anyways, don't think too closely about that, Shindo Chan. They will leave you alone now mostly and that is what's counts in the end."
She nodded into her trusty pillow, what had him feel the sudden urge to hug her.
Kain repressed it ruthlessly, knowing that he would only startle Shindo with such. Instead he mused a little over the strange girl that let him stay at her house.
Shindo was not the one who had much friends from what Kain could remember, rather, like Yori Chan, she seem to prefer it to have only a few and then real friends around her. Yuuki, Yori and she had often walked together, but only them and almost never another had been together with the trio besides Zero.
She was, like Kain, not a person for crowds or big parties he realized. Most likely due what he had found out about her past.
He could live with that. She mostly tended to keep to herself, he did so too. That was actually mutual a treat in both as well as their love for books and classic music. And she seem to like to study hard, what had him wonder. He had not entirely been a diligent student in the past. Not Kain was dumb, it was more that he did rather take a nap or was busying himself with doing something else. Hanabusa was the genius in the family not Kain and he knew it.
Most likely, Shindo and Yori had in the past tutored Yuuki all the time. The realization was nothing unexpected for Kain.
Kain had kept to his studies of business and politics as well as management. As an building up on needed knowledge for his future take over of his families business in the future. In this, he excelled and that was all what mattered for the rather mostly silent man in the end. As his cousin too, Kain had no illusions about his future and what was expected from him from his father and uncles.
Sometimes it sucked to be the lone heir of an big conglomerate like that of his clan.
Sighting Kain went and got his glass of blood out of the microwave, it had to be cool enough now to drink it. He new, Shindo would make a face at it as usual and hopefully soon forget her embarrassing slip. As foretold, Kain had right the right effect with this. Shindo looked at it, made a face that had him want to hug her again and fast deserted the living room.
She was too funny when doing that he mused, with a wide and a little devilish looking grin.
And easy to get to, Kain pondered. Like a little ruffled looking kitten when confronted with something smelly, here he gave it up and laughed. The part of an shoped onion ring, flying into his direction with a muttered curse told Kain that Shindo knew somehow what he was doing.
Catching it he ate it and still munched around on it when her head pocked into the living room.
"You do that with the blood all the time on purpose don't you! You are awful, Kain San!" Shindo accused Kain rightfully. His grin was all innocence when he looked at Shindo. With a huff and another onion ring flying at him seconds later, Shindo vanished inside the kitchen again.
The ring ended up same stile as the other before.
Kain's grin however, didn't vanish for a longer while. Shindo reminded Kain awfully on his cousin sometimes. This had him laugh softly and shake his head in expiration. He could not really miss the annoying brat that much, now could he? Seemingly, Kain did. Or else he would not try to tease his current adorable little Landlady so much.
Either way, Kain's developing urges to hug her or to put her into a cushion to keep her out of troubles had him thinking a bit.
Shrugging it off, Kain stood and went into the kitchen too.
Maybe he could steal another onion ring on his way to the table… he loved them!
