Tardy non stop

Naru sat in his office glaring at it, Mai was late again. 'What in the world makes her late every single day?' He thought glancing at his unfinished work. Naru could never focus on his work till he knew she was safe and sound, with her being a danger magnet and all.

The front door bell rang and he stood and walked to the front office, "Mai you're late! Tea " he said with anger filling his voice.

Mai flinched and took a step forward wincing, but she continued hiding her as she walked to the kitchenette. Naru noticed and decided to question her when she came back to his office with the tea.

A few minutes later Mai slowly entered his office, limping, but you wouldn't be able to tell us less you were staring at her intently. Of course Naru noticed it, "Mai why are you limping?" He asked taking the tea as she set the tea down.

She bit her lip nervously, "it's nothing I just tripped coming here..." she told him not looking at him.

Naru narrowed his eyes but didn't comment on how he knew she was lying, "get to work and don't be late again or I'll begin to dock your pay." He said convincingly, though he would never do that.

Mai nodded and hobbled out of his office . Naru stared at his work, he knew Mai would be late again she was late everyday so he decided he was going to check out what causes her to be late. Only because she was his assistant, nothing more.

The next day was the weekend and Mai had to be at work by 10, so Naru left his apartment and told Lin he was going to be late. Lin only looked at him weirdly, wanting to ask but decided against it.

Naru got to Mai's apartment, after stopping by the office to drop off his car. He would drive there, but that means he would have to tail her by car and that would be challenging to do. So he walked there, it was 9 when he arrived to the building across from her apartment.

He had a clear view for when she left, a few minutes later Mai left her apartment, it was 9:05. Naru nodded his head if she walked fast she would be to the office really early. He stood and followed her as she walked her normal route to work.

'Everything is normal so why does Mai always end up late?' Naru thought confused.

Mai stopped at the walk when she looked to her side and started to talk... To no one. Curious Naru got closer to hear what she was say, "yes... I can help you find your way..." she said smiling. Everyone was looking at her like she was crazy, then it hit him... she was talking to a spirit.

The cross walk turned green and she held her hand out and grabbed the air and started walking across the street. Turned away from the way to the office and started heading towards a neighborhood she walked down a few streets the stopped. She smiled and waved goodbye, as a bright light little the cloudy sky.

She turned around and began walking back to the office, it was 9:25. She boarded the train to Shibuya district which on took five minutes at most and left.

Naru looked at the time, it was 9:45, she had fifteen minutes and it was only a five minute walk to the office from here.

Mai stopped and looked at her watch then she ran to the park that was near the office. Naru followed her there watching her carefully. Mai stopped by the fountain and opened her bag pulling out some candy she laid the candy on the concrete portion.

She turned to leave when she froze, she sighed and looked back, she slowly got on her knees. For a moment Naru could see a lot of little kids but the next second they gone.

Naru looked at the time and sighed, it was 9:55 so he left. At 10:05 Mai entered the office to find Naru sitting at her desk. "I'm sorry that I'm late again, I tried getting here sooner." She said.

He waved her off and gave a smiled smile and walked back to his office, Mai blushed as he shut the door. Now he knew why she was always late...
