The Woman Of THREE CROWN PRINCES
THE GEISHA AND MOMIJI DREAM PART 28. I'm Sorry 3
All I know is she said she'd need my help at lunch and dinner the same day.
But why is my schedule booked in 3 full days. Did he not realize he had to pay me 3 full days as well. I just read my schedule which has been updated by assistant okiya.
"Mayumi, instead of the Saturday afternoon show, why was I booked until Monday." And I ended up calling Mayumi out of curiosity afterwards.
"I don't know Setsuko-san, I was booked to book your schedule until Monday. There may be other events that require your presence. Some kind of unofficial event."
Mayumi had no idea, I was also lazy to call Hisao. Let it be, just so long as he knows that I can't be touched at will, maybe he's trying to take me to his non-formal show.
I arrived there Saturday at nine after a two-and-a-half-hour train ride from Kyoto, still so sleepy that all the way I did was sleep, because my schedule just finished at two o'clock the night before. Today will be long because I will also work until night. I don't know what event is on Sunday. But I was just scheduled to return Monday afternoon to Kyoto.
The driver picked me up at the station and headed to his house. Saturday is not work time, it's home visits and non-formal lunches.
I got to his house then in my Minato. The house in modern style is beautiful.
"Good afternoon Setsuko San, I'm Kento Kanagawa, I'm the main manager. I'll help show you your room." She leaned over to introduce herself and then helped me with a woman carrying my bag and suitcase to the second floor.
"Sir Hisao said you could take your time to rest and prepare, he'll be waiting for you at 11:30 in the living room later." Ahh thankfully. I had more time to lose my eyes.
"Miss is already eating, in the dining room there is food available. But if Miss wants to eat in Nanao's room, she'll take it for Miss."
"Ahh can it be ten o'clock, can you bring me a little l onigiri? I'm asking not to be disturbed for a moment."
I can use my time to get ready. Shower and wear something to fix my eyes. At 11 I'm ready to meet Hisao.
"Hisao-san, nice to see you again."
"Setsuko-san, are you ready? Lunch will be casual, mostly friends my level." His face looks bright today.
"Yes, Mayumi-san told me."
"How was your trip?" It seems that he is being kind and is not trying to make me angry today. His attitude is no longer arrogant. Usually he looks like an important person who likes to show he is in power.
"Well, I arrived at nine."
"Evening is still working."
"Schedule as usual." He's nodding. Why is he so kind now.
"Hmm, Setsuko-san.today what if we become friends only. I don't want to be considered too proud in front of my old friends, you don't claim to be my companion. Let's just say we became close friends but of course we're not dating. Can I just keep that up ?"
"Ohh well. I don't have a problem." And he asked politely to explain his point well now. Usually he would give out orders like a stiff bossman.
