OFFICE 

KANAME’S OFFICE  

Risa didn’t even bother to knock and she just barged into Kaname’s room

Risa : Okay talk.

Kaname whom were staring into space turned to Risa and straighten his posture.He looked at Risa and asked her to sit infront of him.

Risa without any second thoughts went straight to the table and sit infront of him.

Kaname : Karin said--

Risa : What did she say?

Kaname :You intended to not continue this matter.

Risa : Therefore?

Kaname : Do you know what will happen to me if you do that?

Risa : That is my concern because of?

Kaname : (annoyed)

Risa : I  don’t see which part of this matter is my concern.

Kaname : And what will happen to you too .

Risa : I don’t see that as a big deal.

Kaname : Can you stop making things worse.

Risa  : I am not even doing anything.You are the one who makes this up. Things are already in mess and you want to add more?

Kaname : What do you mean?

Risa : You were the one who said not to make a scene outside of the office.

Kaname : And?

Risa : Look who came and make a scene at the café just now?

Kaname : (staring at Risa)

Risa : I would suggest you to ask Karin again.

Kaname : Ask what?

Risa : Everything.

Risa stood up and went straight to the door.

Kaname : Where are you going?

Risa : Im going home.

Risa closed the door behind her before Kaname could say anything.Risa cant help but laugh when she saw Kaname’s reaction just now.

Risa : I need to sleep.(sigh)

Risa ran her fingers through her hair and walked straight to the panty.She didn’t realize Akira was sitting at the bar when she entered the pantry.

Akira : Risa?

Risa : (shocked)

Akira : (smiles)

Risa : (bowing) I think I’ll go somewhere else.

Akira : No no,its okay.Im leaving.You can have the pantry all by yourself (wink)

Risa : (confused)

Akira stood up and straighten his posture. Akira put his empty coffee can into the dustbin and walk towards the entrance.

Akira : Have a good day,Risa(smiles)

Akira smiled at Risa before leaving her alone at the Pantry.

Risa went straight to the bar table facing the windows. She just need some time to be alone,to ease her mind up.The quarrel between Kaname and her seems to be bugging her and she just hate the fact that they have to quarrel every single time both of then opens their mouths.

Risa : What a bummer (rubbing her neck)

Risa was spacing out,staring at the blue sky through the windows not realizing that Isane was leaning at the pantry’s door frame,looking at her.

Isane : (coughing)

Risa: (shocked)

Risa turned around quickly to find that Isane was looking at her.

Risa : Mizushima--

Isane : Its Isane.Call me Isane.(smiles)

Risa :….

Isane : So,how’s it going?

Risa : I doubt I know how to answer that.

Isane : Hows your boyfriend?

Risa : I think we both know that Kaname is not my boyfriend.

Isane :Didn’t know that you would go against that notion.

Risa : Never in my life I would agree to that.

Isane : (laughing)

Risa : (sigh)

Isane went to Risa and placed a book infront of her.

Isane : I figured out that you must be bored. Read this whenever you’re free.

Risa was surprised to see the book Norwegian Wood by Murakami infront of her. Its her favourite book but she read the English version instead of the original Japanese one.

Isane : You might have read it but reading Norwegian wood,once is never enough.

Risa : That’s so kind of you.Thank you Mizu-- I mean Isane.

Isane : Youre welcome. Have you eaten?

Risa : I did.You?

Isane : I haven’t. Would you mind accompanying me for some late lunch?(smiles)

Risa : Sounds good.(smiles)

Risa’s heart was beating so fast that she cant actually think of anything else.Ever since she saw Isane that day,she’s been really really fond of him.As if he has this magnet in him that makes her want to get close to him in any ways possible. Something about Isane that made her heart skipped a beat when she saw him at the roof top. There is something but she cant figure it out. And having him asking her out for lunch, she must be out of her mind to reject the offer she thought.
