Forever Entwined
Chapter 14
Saturday afternoon, 1.30pm...
Hiroshi packed the clothes that he had folded into the travel bag that he will be bringing to the Sumeragi House. The day before, he received a formal invitation card to the sleep over at Sumeragi House from Shin Sumeragi.
It was a surprise to be called to the Student Council Room again yesterday, thinking that Shin wanted to taunt him again but when he got there, there was only Shio Takaya who awaits him. Shio then handed him the invitation card telling him that a car will pick him up on the specific day and time written on the card.
He was then told that it was essential for him to bring the invitation card along with him as the driver and would likely want to verify that he is indeed the person to pick up. Thinking back, before he left the room, he noticed that Shio looked at him as if he wanted to say something but in the end he said nothing.
I wonder just what was it that he wanted to say…
"Ding Dong!" Hiro heard the door bell rung and the sound of a car engine can be heard from outside the house. Looking out of his window, he saw a black Sedan with tinted windows, the same car as the one that brought the twins to school every day. It must have been the pick-up car. As he heard his mother answer the door, Hiro rushed to pack his things.
"The young master has told us to ready this room for your stay. You have leave of using this room as you see fit for your stay here. The maids will unpack your things for you so please leave the unpacking to them.
"Uh..." Even so, to leave the unpacking of his things, like his underwear and stuff, Hiro felt uncomfortable with the maids touching them but looking at the manservant who was saying all this with utterly no expression on his face, Hiro couldn't reject the idea.
Looking around the room, while the maids put away his stuff, he thought back to when he stepped out of the pick-up car. The first reaction to the Sumeragi House was that it was a huge house, definitely a rich person house. He knew from Takato and the others that the Sumeragi family was well known and now, he was seeing it first hand with his very own eyes.
"Now if you please follow me to the sitting room. Young master Shin will meet you there." The manservant waited, holding the door open for him to go through, forcing him to comply. Then he was lead through a series of doors and corridors before he stopped and opened a particular door to usher Hiro inside.
"Please wait in here while I inform young master Shin of your arrival. Snacks and drinks will be served momentarily." With that said he bowed and when out the door closing it behind him, leaving Hiro alone in the sitting room.
Sighing, he at his abandoned fate, he looked around the room to find that it was decorated just like the rest of the house that he had seen so far. It has an old traditional Japanese style but with a modern twist to it here and there. Looking out the window, he could see a garden filled with beautifully trimmed bushes, trees and flowers.
Somehow, to him, nothing looks out of place. It gives a feeling of peacefulness but with a hint of eeriness to him. Maybe it was because he is use to commotions and loudness of the city and town. Being here where the servants did things quietly and the feeling of being served really bugging him somewhat.
When he finally thought that he was going out of his mind waiting in the peaceful quietness, the door open. He turned away from the window to see Shin coming through the door with a maid trailing behind him, holding what looks like drinks and snacks that had been promised.
"I'm sorry I was late, did you wait long?"
"Um, no I just got here."
"Good good. Why don't we seat shall we?" Shin offered him a sit at the sofa and waited until he sat, only then did he seat himself. There was a moment of silence when the maid served the snacks and drinks before she too disappear out the door.
"So... You came." Shin said, looking at him with a slight grin on his face.
"Y-yeah.."
"Is the room to your liking? The room is near mine and Suki's by the way."
"O-oh really?" Hiro is starting to distrust that grin on Shin's face. He wondered just what surprises Shin had installed for him. Somehow, he just knew that the surprise will be a nasty one. He took a sip of his drink to quench his sudden dry throat.
"Hmm.. Well look at the time, it's just about lunch time." Shin said as he looked at his watch. "We'll have lunch first then after it I will show you around the house. I'm sorry my great-grandmother can't greet you. She is also in Tokyo getting check up by our doctors there when she suddenly collapsed. She is quite old, you see." Hiro quickly finished his drink and followed Shin out.
"Oh? I'm sorry to hear that. I hope your great-grandmother will be alright… U-um.. Shin-san?"
"Hmm? Call me Shin, somehow I don't particularly like being called "Shin-san" by you." Shin replied as he briskly walk to his destination, which ever that is. Hiro hurriedly followed after him, afraid that he will get lost among the twist and turns of the corridors.
"Oh Okay... Um Shin, so is Suki back from Tokyo?" Hiro asked, wanting to know since he did not see Suki with Shin. But when he asked that question, Shin suddenly stopped and turned to look at him.
"Oh ho! Well... Suki haven't come home yet but she might reach here tonight but meanwhile... I might just have to entertain you, don't I? Won't that be fun!" Shin said that with a wicked grin and turn back to continue walking.
I just knew it.. That he is playing with me.. What the hell is going to happen, he hope that it is nothing bad...
Meanwhile, in Tokyo...
Sukiya looked out the window of the waiting room in the private hospital. Every time there were to have a check-up, she and Shin would be brought all the way to Tokyo to Clamp Campus's private hospital. It has been that way since their birth. Even the school's annual check-up they were exempted from participating.
Right now, she was waiting for the results of her check-up. All week they did tests on her were divided throughout the weekdays and on the following Saturday morning, the test results of the entire series of medical tests will be told.
All through week after the testing she had nothing to do except wonder around Tokyo exploring and sketching what suits her moods. It is somewhat peaceful yet stressful at the same time. Peaceful as she did not have Shin to pester her but stressful as Sukiya knows that he will be up to no good during the time she is not with him to stop him.
She remembered the first time they began have separate check-up dates for her and Shin when they reached their teens. Shin had thrown a big temper tantrum that had the household in chaos for a week. But after that, he seemed to have gotten used to it though the household knows that for that week where she is not there, they have to cater to his whims, if not, terrible things happens.
I just wonder how he's doing… I hope nothing bad will happen this time…
"Miss Sumeragi? The doctor is ready to see you." A nurse called out from behind the counter. She gestured with her hand towards the room to tell her to get going.
Sighing, Suki takes a last look out the window to the beautiful garden scenery outside before having to face with all the medical result tests. The calm before the storm. Somehow, she suspected that something was different with today's results. Something in the air made her inner powers a buzzing, as if warning her that there will be trouble ahead.
Steeling herself, she walked calmly towards the door. Breathing out, she tried to calm her thumping heart and slowly turns the door knob to open the door. As the door opened, she stood still in surprised to see her great-grandmother in the room, sitting with the doctor.
Why is Great-grandmother here and without notifying me too? What the hell is going on?
See her great-grandmother here, the "feeling" she had intensify. Suki knows that something bad was going to happen or rather, she is going to find out something bad.
"Come in and close the door, Sukiya. There is something we must discuss." The doctor said as he flips through the papers on the clipboard in front of him. Her great-grandmother just sat in her wheelchair looking at her as if something has saddened her.
As the door shut closed, Suki is left wondering just what in the world had her great-grandmother come all the way to Tokyo for and for her to come all the way here when she is supposed to be resting, it must be something bad indeed…
The End
