I was actually afraid that Hisao-san was angry. The response last night was bad. But on the other hand I know I have a good reason not to blame because Ryohei-san helped me.
I can reason that I met Ryohei-san by accident. Even though he'll know we might have a relationship. But like I said for now I'm just keeping his feelings, there's no personal connection to our agreement.
If he is offended and does anything else. He has to explain himself to me. What reason he was offended. Because they are rivals? I didn't even know they knew each other.
I had a noon event with him, nine o'clock I already greeted Nanao.
"Nanao, where's Hisao-san?"
"Miss training ground." I'll go see him and act like it's not a big deal.
Head to the gym with a thumping feeling now. He's hitting his practice this time. I ventured into. I don't know this thick masculine aura I think makes me a little uncomfortable then.
"Hisao-san, ..." I greeted him and made him look up now.
He looked at me for a moment and hit his tams again. Is he angry now? He didn't answer my greeting at all. I dare not bother him. I let him do his thing.
I was just sitting on a device over there.
"I brought you okonomiyaki Hisao-san." I try to melt the atmosphere with him.
"OK, Thanks. I'll eat it." He answered me in the quickest way and moved to his pull-up tool. He might be angry. Did dinner last night bother him so much.
I waited for her to finish and just watched her while playing my phone.
"Hisao-san, are you mad at me?" A moment later he finished with his pull-up.
"No." He answered me but didn't look at me. I'm going to confront you now. I'll just say something.
"You have a relationship with Ryohei?" He finally asked.
"I just had dinner with him. We just happened to meet."
"You can ask him..."
"Why should I ask him. If you stand in front of me now. Do you have a problem answering me honestly?" My plan of lying is gone already. I felt unable to face his interrogation.
"It was just dinner. Nothing happens next, he's my client as well as Hisao-san. I won't bother you then." I'm leaving now. I better avoid it first.
"Setsuko-san, uh,..." Stalled steps. He's standing in front of me. "I won't ask again, this is the last time. Tell me the truth, this is your last chance."
"Hisao-san, it is a private realm. You and I are bound by a special mentoring agreement, but it's written between us that there's only a professional mentoring agreement, not a full danna, I told you Ryohei-san and I just happened to meet and have dinner. I'm bound by okiya rules, I didn't break those rules from the time I was 17 until now. I didn't break any of my agreements with you..."
"You offended the private realm as it turned out, so Ryohei-san has a personal interest in you?"
"I'm not ka..." He cut me off right away.
"Let me guess, she somehow likes you? Likes you? Like you in particular it has no rules, no, what he volunteered to be your danna. But he can't wait for next year because you're under a deal with me. That's what happened, isn't it?" He was smiling coldly now.
"Why don't you just say it, what's wrong with being honest. You're right I don't have a full agreement with you, I just want you to be honest..." Cold nape. I can't deny his words. He's too smart to be lied to.
"I'm disappointed in you Setsuko-san. All I need is your honesty."
"I just don't want you to be offended. Not to lie to you." I looked at him, not knowing he could say that to me. I was wrong to talk about it.
"I'm more offended you're not being honest."
"Then what do you expect from my honesty. Hisao-san makes me awkward and scared, since you haven't seen me from talking straight since I came here, you've been accusing me, on the other hand I'm afraid to offend you, on the other hand I just have to keep everyone feeling. You want me to be honest, when someone tells me how he feels, I can't appreciate it and make it a private domain... You disappointed in me? I didn't break any of our agreements. And makes me feel guilty like this. Now you want to blame me for not appreciating your feelings?"
"Well, I was wrong, I will tell you I was wrong Hisao-san, whatever you want. If you want me to pay you 10 million yen back for dinner. Sihlakanese. I'll pay for it...." I don't know why I dare to talk like this, I think I'm crazy. But this is the first time I like people and he also likes me sincerely. And I'm likely to be heartbroken again. I'm battered.
I'm moving away. If he cancels our deal because of that dinner, even though I've had to drain all my savings over the years to pay for it. Iwill.
"Who said you could go like that." He caught my hand and pulled me now. I was surprised to see him so close. And she's locking my waist now, her moist skin makes me uncomfortable.
