The following week. Kirishima spend his entire day searching about Akihito. He definitely found something interesting about the boy. He made a little bit of discoveries about the boy how he related to Akira. They look exactly the same, but one was a girl, and other one was a boy. Which made Kirishima confused a bit. As he look at the files of researched. He smiled looking satisfied. He immediately texts Asami. He closed his laptop and pickups the car keys, and starting to drove to the penthouse.
Little did Akihito know that his identity will be revealed soon enough? As usual He walk to his workplace and to the modeling industry. He's been switching in between them for the last 3 weeks. At first he didn't like. He hated the long distances between them. Now a days he take a cab to the industry. Which it cost a lot because of the distance. He frowned as he walking.
He visited his workplace a bit, and checking what's up with his boss, and the news. There was nothing about any crime news at all. He give a big sign. How he is going to get paid if there's not any crime news, He thought. The boss wanted to talk to Akihito. They went into the boss's office and Akihito sat down politely. Akihito starts to feel a bit nervous. Is he going to get fire? Or did he do something wrong? He keep on questioning himself. His boss cough a bit to clear his throat.
"Akihito kun…..How are you doing?" His boss asked.
*What's with this question?* He said in his mind. "I'm…I'm good, and you...boss…is something wrong?"
He his boss smile at him. "Of course I'm doing well. Since there not a lot of crime news to investigate. Do you want a week off from work?"
Akihito eyed opened wide in surprise. He blink many times. "haa…..sure, but if there a crime news came out of nowhere?"
"Akihito kun you don't had to worry. You're always the best when it comes to taking marvelous pictures, because of that I'm letting you taking a week off." His boss said.
He was speechless. He didn't know what to say to his boss. He exact his boss idea. He thought that his boss will him had a day off before. The workplace was always busy when it comes to crime news. He stayed for a while and chat with the other workers. They're lively and happy. They always work hard. This is why Akihito want to work with them. He felt like it's a whole new world for him to make a tiny connection with the other people who love to do crime news, and find the truth to what they're doing secretly.

Akihito made his next location to the modeling industry, and meet up with Sasha. The car ride to the industry was about 1 hour. He waited at the side of the high way and wave his hands to catch a cab. The cab stop right where Akihito was. He open the door and tell the address to the driver. When he go inside the car. He put on the seat belt, and sit comfortably on the seat.
It was only 25 minutes after they start driving. He keep his focus on the right side window, and look at the beautiful buildings, and landscapes that capture his eyes. How long has he lived in Japan already? These building still able to captures his eyes, and his mind. He will never get enough of the beautiful architectures around him. He leans on the window glass. Closing and relaxing his eyes.
The sound from the friction of the car's tire, and the ground starts to fade away as Akihito closed his eyes. He was starting to drift away from the sounds, and slowing falling asleep. e He might as well take the advantage of the time and sleep.
By the time he woke up. The cab was there already. He opened the door, and thanked the driver. And the cab left. He slowly made his way to the front door. Inside the building it was so quiet. The lighting of the building gave off a beautiful glow to the enormous lobby. There you see a machine that it lets you slide your card, and let you go in. He took out the free pass card Sasha had giving him. He slide the card to the machine and it made a beep sound. Conforming the he could go.
He made his way to the elevators. He waited in front of the elevator, sudden receiving a test from Sasha. She wanted to know if Akihito was here yet.
He texted "Yes I'm here. I'm in the 1st floor. I will be there soon,"
The elevator door slide opened and Akihito go into the elevator. He pushed the 8th button. The elevator took him to the 8th floor. The door opened, and Akihito walk out to the hallway to Sasha's office.
Akihito was in front of Sasha's office. He can hear Sasha voice. She was talking to someone. "I should I go in?" He said in his mind. He wasn't sure if Sasha was busy. He made a quiet knock on the door. And he heard Sasha voice loudly through the door. "Come in,"
He opened the door. And without looking ahead of him. He turn around, and close the door behind him. As he turns to look at Sasha. He saw some one that he wasn't supposed to see. It was Asami, and his guard in Sasha's office. Akihito stood frozen for a while. He swallowed hard and didn't say anything as he was still looking at Asami. He turns his head over to Sasha. Sasha didn't know what to say too.
1 hour ago~
In the penthouse. Kirishima was with Asami. Discussing about the Akihito. The information that he researched made Asami mouth curved into a smirk. Asami was finally getting to know the strange boy soon. He look at the pictures of the boy. And remembering the night when he was at the super market. Asami got up, and light up a cigarette. He told Kirishima to get the car ready. They're going to the modeling industry this instance.
When they got there. Sasha was speechless to see them. She look at them confusedly.
"We're here to observe your modeling industry, and how the models are doing," Kirishima lied while bowing to Sasha. Sasha looks at Asami. Asami just smile, and went inside Sasha's office. Now Sasha didn't know what to do. Akihito will be here soon. How is he going to be like when he sees Asami? She was dying in her own mind. She was nervous how this going to be like when they meet each other like this.
Present~
Sasha gave Akihito a stare. In their mind they constantly trying to read each other minds. Sasha was trying to tell Akihito "Just act normal. Like you're a stranger. Okay..?" Sasha wasn't sure if he received the right message, but he nod a little. Akihito suddenly made his move. He made a little bow to Asami and his guard. Which cause Asami by surprise. He walk to where Sasha was. He sat down next to her feeling nervous.
Sasha was the one who broke the awkward silent. "Ugh...Asami san…this is Akihito," She pointed it out. "And…Akihito this is Asami," They both look at each other. Akihito's heart suddenly beats faster as Asami was looking at him too. Akihito lower his eyes. He couldn't look into those strong, piercing eyes of his. Asami smirk as the younger boy was feeling shy looking at him.
Sasha spoke again. "So…aren't you going to observe?" She questions Asami.
Asami look at Akihito and then at Sasha. "Well, I was thinking that I need someone to tour me around the building," he replied. "How am I going to observe your building, and your workers?"
Asami was right. But Sasha didn't know who will be the right person to tour Asami. Since he is famous himself. He's always picky about thing. And how they're done. "Well, I don't have a mentor for you," she said worried.
Asami chuckle at Sasha. "How about Akihito being my mentor for today? I don't care if he's good at it or not,"
Akihito was surprised by Asami sudden words. In Akihito's mind he was thinking that Asami was crazy. "What is he saying? We just met you idiot!" Akihito continued to look at Sasha nervously. Sasha was stuck on her words. She don't know what to say anymore. She just can't say no to Asami. She look at Akihito with a sorry face. Akihito understood that she can't say no.
"I don't mind," Akihito tried to smile "I will do it," Asami sat there looking at them. "Alright." He said in his husky voice. "Should we start now?"
Akihito got up from the couch, and nod his head at Asami.

Obviously he doesn't want to do it. What will happened if he refuse Asami request. Will he make the industry into a chaos? Or let it go bankrupt? He himself has a lot of thing that he can do. Since he owned almost everything Japan. He can do whatever he like.
Akihito starts with the 8th floor, since they are already there. He told Asami the 8th floors was mostly offices and meeting rooms. They have meetings every 2 weeks. To check up how things are working, and how it's processing.
As Akihito was speaking while touring the building. Asami didn't pay attention to what he was saying because he was staring at Akihito the entire time. Akihito's natural pink lips seem really soft Asami thought.
They move to the 6th and 7th floor. This two floors are for models trying on the clothes, and practice room for walking. As hours goes by they were almost finished touring the building. They both were on the Elevator together. Akihito was about to press the button, but notice Asami finger was pressing the button too. They both look at each other, and Akihito move his finger really fast. Now there was kind of an awkward feeling in the air. Asami just smile a bit, and press the button.
When the elevator stop, they both got off, and was heading next floor, but sudden Akihito trap, and Asami sudden see the falling boy. He immediately grabs hold of Akihito. Asami was holding the young slim boy in his chest. The texture of the young man's skins made Asami realized it was soft like Akira. The similar smell of shampoo too. He was more curious about Akihito now.
When Akihito suddenly realized Asami's arm around him, and other one holding his hands. He quickly got away from Asami's hold. His face was now red as a tomato. He quickly apologized to Asami. Now he so embarrassed he wanted to hide. He changed the topic by walking away from Asami. But Asami grabs his wrist, and swung him back to him. Akihito swung back in front of Asami's chest again, and he looked up to Asami's handsome face. No he look a bit confused. Why would Asami hold a guy like this? He thought that Asami was only interested in girls, maybe he was wrong.
Asami strong stares look at Akihito's face. He does have the same the features as Akira. The same size, and height too. Akihito didn't know what to do. He was trying to get away, but Asami's still holding his wrist. This is like their first meeting at the Club Sion too.
"Who are you exactly?" Asami's husky voice surprised Akihito. "By any chance….do you…?" Asami stop with his sentence. Akihito look nervously at Asami. Didn't he found out about Akira too? He looked worried. "Do you know Akira by any chance," Asami finished his sentence.
Akihito eyes widen a bit, but not really showing his surprised expressions. How is he going to answered Asami? What if he tries to track him down for lying...? Thinking about it he was ready for any troubles. But he got to lie somehow.
"I do," He said with a smile to ruining the worried look on his face. "We're related actually. Why did you asked? Did you saw her?" Akihito lied. Asami arched his brow at the statement Akihito made. He was not expecting to hear that. He thought he actually found the real truth between Akira and Akihito. But he failed too. He was pretty sure he thought Akira, and Akihito are the same person. Was he wrong? He look at the younger man who questioned him. "I did met her," He said in a calm voice. "But how are you guys…related?"
Akihito was trying to keep his cool. He somehow manage to lie to Asami. "We're cousins. 1st cousins actually," He lied again. How long is he going to lie to Asami?
Asami look at him with a faceless expression, but inside he was confused. "That means you're both have the same last name?" He asked. Akihito nods his head. "Then…what's your full name?"
Akihito decided to tell his full name to Asami. Without thinking what's going to happened. "It's Takaba." He said. Asami repeats the name Takaba over again in his head. He was about to say something. But the buzzing on Akihito's phone distracted him. Akihito pull out his phone, and look at the message that pop out. It was Sasha who text him. She wanted to know if they're done with the tour yet. He was going to reply, but Asami stole his phone in his hands, and look at the message. He gave it back to Akihito.
"I will be leaving soon. We can stop," He said. Akihito just nod at Asami. They both went back into the elevator. Akihito was still thinking about how Asami was able to ask him who he was. He brush off the uneasy feeling inside his guts. He hoped to keep Akira, and himself secret away from Asami. He just had to keep it away he said in his mind.
