Finally back after two weeks. Thank you to those who reviewed fav or followed last chapter. Please read my new romance drama story innocent romance. Enjoy!
Patricia beams in delight. "Oh there you are."
"Who is this?" He asks his mother. Do they know each other?
The woman smiles. "Hi I'm Amy. I'm your new assistant."
Takumi looks at his mother so she can explain why some random woman is standing in his office. Why did she get him an assistant? He already has one and doesn't need another one. What on earth is his mother planning? First Aiko now this. Can he just get a break to make his plans work without any interruptions. It's like things won't get peaceful for him.
"I'm sorry Amy but I'm not hiring. Whenever I am I'll give you a-"
Amy cuts off Takumi before he can finish his sentence which he thinks is rude for an employee. "Your other assistant is on vacation so I'm here until they return."
"I haven't given anyone a vacation-"
"Oh I did," His mother butts in. Of course. His grandfather and brother wouldn't care who he hires so it had to be her.
But will they just let him speak? Apparently not! If they did they would both know he doesn't want neither of them in his office.
"Mom you don't hire people for me" He sounds a little bit angry and he was. Maybe if she stops meddling in his life he won't get angry with her.
"Come on Takumi this isn't a problem right?" Patricia asks innocent as usual. It's hard to think she could ever harm anyone. Guess you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover.
"It is mom. I'm on charge of the company so I make my decisions on who to work for me," He says getting impatient little by little.
"Takumi we are all in charge of this company so we all make decisions," Patricia counters back with a sly smirk on her face but it changed in an instant to a smile. No wonder he never noticed anything bad about her. Her personality changes so quickly.
"So you mean my word means nothing?" He questions seriously in defense of himself.
"No sweetheart that's not what I mean. Listen, we shouldn't discuss this in front Amy. I'll see you later," Patricia waves him goodbye then gives Amy a look that says do your best.
Silence fills the air once his mother leaves. What is he suppose to say to someone he doesn't even want here? He has no use for this Amy chick and he just feels like this is some kind of plan his mother has. She forgets her son is really smart on somethings.
"Just go do some random thing in the office," Takumi tells Amy waving to his door hoping she'll take the hint and leave.
"You don't remember me?" She asks smiling as bright as the sun.
Takumi raises an eyebrow trying to understand if he knows her. "No I don't so leave."
"We went to college together remember. I was that not so popular gir-"
Takumi stops her midway this pointless conversation. "There were a lot of not so popular girls there and I remember none. I have meetings every day so most people who aren't important to me in the past I forget them."
Why should or would he remember her? He has no intention of focusing on any girl other than Misaki in the past or present. Any feelings they feel for him should just stop or they'll end up with a broken heart.
"Relax I'm not some crazy fan girl of you. I'm dating someone," Amy answers trying her best to let him know she's different from those other girls. "Well actually we broke up but I'm not looking to jump into another relationship right now."
"That's good to hear as there will be no jumping in this office. I'd prefer if you walk away," Takumi says very coldly. He just wants to get back to work not have a conversation with some woman his mother brought into his office. That reminds him. He's curious as to how they know each other. "How do you know my mother?"
"A friend introduced us."
She doesn't give him enough details.
"Who?" He presses further.
"Well you were about to marry her-"
"Aiko?! Why would she introduce you to my mother?" Takumi wonders out loud. This situation isn't making sense. Why would Aiko who he almost got engaged to and the same person who said his mother embarrassed her introduce a friend to my mother?
"I think I understand now. You think your mother is setting you up with me right? Don't you think that would be weird since Aiko is my friend?" Amy questions with that same bright smile on her face. What is it with her and smiling?
"I see. Conversation is over go find some work to do until my assistant returns," He orders picking up some files to read.
Amy takes the hint and decides to leave. She bows showing respect and turns her heels to the door. As she is walking she stops midway.
"You know Takumi," She pauses. Amy can hear him rest down the file. "If you ever need someone to help you in this game you're playing. I can help you."
With that being said she leaves a confuse Takumi alone in his office. Soon he can get away from all the crazy people. Hopefully.
-Gold Partners-
With a positive change in her thinking Misaki has officially gotten off the whole Patricia drama. Arguing with Patricia is irrelevant and it could ruin her relationship with Takumi. It's still hard to believe that he proposed to her. She was least expecting that. It feels as though she has forgotten the past and is living in paradise right now but that is most definitely not the case.
Her goal from the start was to make Walker Inc pay and she won't have happiness until that has happen. She won't be able to relax and enjoy her time with her family until this feud is over. Unless she puts an end to Walker Inc, Richard and Gerald to be exact, they will always be arguments in her life. She's tired of all that now her and Takumi are back together.
There is a knock at her door.
"Come in," She says loudly ready to greet her guests. She isn't expecting Richard himself to walk into her office. "This is a not so pleasant surprise."
Richard ignores her remark and sits down anyway. All he does is just stare at her.
"If you wanted to look at me you could have just look at the photos going around the media," Misaki jokes but Richard does not think it's funny.
"You…." Richard finally begins to speak. "What are you planning?"
"Huh?"
Did he come here to confuse her with weird questions?
"I'll ask again what are you planning?" Richard repeats once more.
"I don't understan-"
"You know what I mean. That deal for the restaurant. I wasted my money on it and you knew that would happen," He says almost too softly.
"Ah I see! Did you really need to come here and tell me that? That makes me even more happy. We aren't partners so why would I warn you?" Misaki chuckles. She feels quite good knowing the first step of her plan worked.
"You...I'm giving you one last chance to disappear from my family," Richard warns gripping unto his walking stick.
"How can I do that when we are going to be family?" Misaki says leaning back into her chair. "When and if I marry Takumi I hope there is no feud between us when that happens."
"What do you mean?"
"Patricia didn't call you like she does and complain? I guess you'll hear from her but for now please leave," Misaki stands up and walks over to the office door. She nicely holds it open for him.
Richard stands and exits the room not looking back at her.
How can one old man be so evil?
Misaki shuts her door to proceed on with her day.
-Walker Inc.-
The day went by smoothly and Takumi is currently on the phone with Misaki planning a date tonight when Amy walks in.
"I'll meet you tonight at the restaurant then," He concludes quickly not wanting anyone a.k.a Amy to eavesdrop on his conversation. He hasn't really trusted her yet. He hangs up the phone.
"How can I help you," He asks Amy who stood in front him with her hands behind her back.
"I finished all the work I found," She sounds proud of what she did.
"Excellent," Takumi replies not really interested in what she did. She should know that small minor things like that doesn't need to be reported to him every two seconds. "I guess it's fair to say you can leave now."
"Okay. It's sounds like you're going on a date. Isn't that a little too quick after a broken engagement?" Amy asks which is not her business.
"If I wanted an opinion about my life I would get professional help. Until then and now that I pay you please do not question what I do," Takumi says as best as he could put it nicely. He doesn't want anyone messing with his relationship with Misaki. No more games.
Amy giggles out of the blue. "You're right. I guess you get help for the problems with your mother right?"
Takumi sighs. This doesn't seem shocking that she knows something about his mother. "What do you mean?"
"I mean she killed your baby and-"
"Stop right there or I'll do something to you I won't regret," He warns and she can see from the look in his eyes he means it.
"Chill I'm on your side. You may not remember me but you did something really good for me in the past ok. Your mother wanted me to seduce and to return the favor I want to help you," Amy answers hoping he'll at least believe that. "Just go get ready for your date. My intentions will be proven for you in good time. Goodbye!"
Takumi watches Amy leave his office for like the hundredth time that day. Maybe he is too quick to assume the worst of her. She could be an innocent person hanging around his mother. All he has to do is try to remember her from the past. That's going to be hard.
Something deep inside says she may be an asset to him but then again he feels like he cannot trust anyone at this point. The only one he can probably believe in is Misaki.
It's getting late and he soon has to get ready for his date with Misaki. He wants this to be a very calm and relaxing date for the both of them. Maybe this will be okay?
-Restaurant-
Night time arrives quickly and one happy couple both had the thought of just enjoying the night with their partner. Takumi stands by the restaurant door with a bouquet of flowers in his hands for Misaki. He wears a blue tux and his hair gel back to show off his manly features.
Right on time his lovely date arrives to remove all eyes away from him and unto her. Misaki wears a red dress which fits her body perfectly showing off all her assets. It stops right by her knees. She put on black high heels and a red lipstick to finish it off and a black purse. She isn't quite fond of makeup and she doesn't need it.
"For you my lady," Takumi hands her the flowers as he approaches her.
Misaki takes them and smiles. "Thank you my good sir."
Takumi smiles and wraps his arm around her waist. They are both ready to enter the restaurant when his cellphone rings.
"I'm sorry about this," He apologises to Misaki as he answers his phone. It is his mother.
"It's okay," Misaki understands.
"Hi mom," He greets his mother.
"Takumi where are you? I need you right now."
"I'm with Misaki right now. Is it important?" Takumi asks hoping it wasn't. Hope is a word he used a lot today.
There is a pause.
"Yes. It's very important and I really need you please."
"Mom I can't just leave my date," He tries to make her understand she's about to ruin his date with Misaki.
"She'll understand. See you soon."
His mother hangs up her phone. Takumi sighs running his hand through his hair. He feels like punching someone but he'll settle for a wall. For once he would love things to be peaceful for him and Misaki.
"What's wrong?" Misaki questions seeing his angry expression. "Is something wrong with your mother?"
"Yes but I'm sure it's nothing."
He wraps his arm around her again wanting to continue the date.
"Takumi no go to your mom," Misaki urges him. She doesn't like Patricia but that is still his mother.
"Misaki don't worry about it," He reassures his worried girlfriend.
"What is up with you Takumi? You've seemed quite different since yesterday. What's wrong?"
Takumi calms himself then pulls Misaki close to him. He rests his head on her shoulder.
"I'm tired. I'm tired of it all."
He is at his breaking point.
Misaki doesn't know what is happening but she knows he wants to be comforted.
"Hey how about we just have diner at your place? No interruptions just us ok?"
Takumi likes the sound of that. No one to interrupt their time together. Just the two of them together in each other's arms. He'll need some peace tonight for when he deals with his family tomorrow.
His mother has some explaining to do.
