The kiss on that day was something Ukyo decided to take as a challenge from the younger girl.
And as months began to pass, without much exchange, Ukyo and Aoi formed a strange relationship that involved them avoiding each other throughout the day she spent with Ema, and revolved around their car rides together when he sought to drop her off at Roppongi.
~~~~~~
Sweetly and silently she became part of his routine. And although that included insults, and remarks on how old he was, Ukyo felt amused.
Aoi was never boring, and in front of him she spoke her mind. This and her always mischievous character pulled people towards her...
Though he was never sure why, he finally found his answer when he finally visited Roppongi, a city that knew her all to well and had her character imprinted all over it.
10 p.m.
As a lawyer Ukyo had come to Roppongi to visit a client, it was unusual, but once that was done he'd planned to head straight home. However, this changed, when out of nowhere he began to pass by shops that continuously began to mention the name "Aoi-chan" and "Blue eyes.."
knowing it could've been someone else, but having something in his gut tell him it was who he thought it was, he followed rumors that went like this:
Stranger: " I heard Aoi-chan is performing tonight at XXX..."
and
Bar Owner : " heard she'll be there at 11..."
He was led to an underground bar where the shop's sign said much more than what he'd wanted to speculate...
"Bar xxxx"
Feeling stupid for following directions and rumors from drunkards, it was then when Ukyo felt like turning around and going home, but being where he was , it was now to late to turn. So, within a slight stop, he adjusted himself and walked towards the darkness of a room.
And in that room he spotted whom he didn't really expect to see..
At first she stared at the crowd with a fake smile, but once she caught a glimpse of him, and their eyes met, she surprised him by tilting her hat and mocking him with a smile he'd seen dozens of time.
