Chương 74: The cub and the lioness
Part 1 - Kisses on the cheek
It was 10 long minutes trying to calm Emi down, between her desperation about why she could have lost me, the scraps she was telling me about being selfish, silly and other things that because of her crying I didn't manage to tend to and because of all the stress she already had accumulated it was difficult to calm her down.
Until I came up with a cheesy idea, I looked at Aki.
-Copy me, honey.
She looked at me blankly, but played along, I put the necklace on my hand, made Emi grab my hand that had the necklace, then I went up to her cheek and gave her a kiss.
Emi was going to talk to me, but then she felt a second kiss on her other cheek, she turned to see who it was.
-Aki... You're beautiful sweetie.
I thought that was going to calm her down, but it made her cry more, she put her hand over her face, trying to hold it back.
-Thank you Emi, you're beautiful too.
-But look at her, she's finally behaving like a girl her own age, sis.
She didn't even answer me, she just squeezed my hand with all her strength.
-Hikaru, you were very... Inconsiderate in that building... What do you think I would have done if you left my side, what do you think Aki would have done without you...? I don't even know how you're alive, but I'm glad, I'm just... That it can't go on like this... Hug me you two idiots.
We both hugged Emi while she was still crying.
-My girl, you're cold, very cold.
-Yes, I hear that a lot lately, Emi.
-I can't believe that I can actually see you, now I understand how Hikaru got so enclosed in you so fast, although, if you allow me I would use another hairstyle to show off your face more.
I can't help but be embarrassed by what Emi said about how I fell in love with her, but I can't lie in part if it was because of that, but the best part was what I found inside her.
-How can you say this kind of things Emi? Shame on you... You're not going to say something Hika.
-I actually have something to say, but it's something else, I Emi.... I feel bad about myself, I think I'm not so different from a monster...
I sat down on a small stool that was there.
-Emi I left Sou unable to walk anymore in his life, knowing what he did, I wanted to kill him, but I didn't do it for the right reasons, I wanted him to suffer for everything he did to Aki and to you I...
-Don't you dare think like that. - Aki and Emi shouted at me in unison.
-You did what you thought you had to do to stop that thing and let that son of a bitch be thankful he's still alive, I'm just upset for your recklessness, you almost abandoned me you idiot, that's not something I'm going to forgive you easily, as for how you feel, if there's anyone who knows your 'dark' side it's me and I assure you that you're not what you think you are. -said Emi.
-Hikaru Emi is right, I know you well, you let out your frustration when you can't stand it, and it makes me happy to see how you want to protect me or not let them do something to me, although, sometimes you can get a bit too much, I love it, you make me feel a tingle down there.... Not that I just said no, but....
I couldn't help but get hot at what he said.
-Thank you... I think... Aki.
-You really are a pervert, though I must admit you know how to cheer up our boy, I even doubt he's thinking about anything else right now.
In the end Emi ended up laughing which was at least the important thing.
Part - 2 Emi's boss.
After Emi calmed down we were kicked out of the place, as it wasn't viewing hours and they only let us in so she could relax.
I approached my family to explain that Emi was fine and that if everything went well she would be discharged in the afternoon if the tests went well, which made everyone happy, but Camila was still very worried and rightly so, as I was told Sou was still unconscious after the long operation he had.
I left because my stomach was rumbling, there was nothing to eat for hours, a situation that Aki found hilarious, because according to her she couldn't believe that with everything that had happened she could be hungry at all.
I went to a vending machine, begging for ramen, but to my surprise there was a woman cursing.
-What's wrong with that lady?
I only managed to raise my shoulders.
I stood behind her waiting for her to finish, but she was still arguing with the machine, I looked sideways, and I realised the problem.
-Miss?
-What do you want? - She said so reluctantly that it even scared me.
- Oh I'm sorry, I didn't realise you were so charming, forgive me for that, tell me what do you need?
The abrupt change in this lady's personality gave me a bad feeling.
-I just wanted to tell her that the machine is unplugged.
The lady turned and smiled at me.
-You're right, what a fool I was.... What I wouldn't give to smoke...
She plugged the machine back in, no problem, I waited for it to light up.
- Do you want something, kid, it's on me, in appreciation...
-Hika, is it my idea or is that woman trying to flirt with you?
I couldn't believe that Aki was now jealous of a woman in her thirties... Why is she looking at me like that?
-It's not necessary... Don't bother.
-Relax, it's no bother... By the way, what's your name, to stop calling you a child?
-Hikaru Nishimura is my name, Miss.
-You're Emilia's brother... -You're Emilia's brother... Now I see why she always talks so much about you, but you're so cute!
Now she was stroking my hair which was a bit uncomfortable.
- I guess Emi told you about me, I am Kyo Aisuru, her boss, I came to see her in fact her father called me he told me what happened, besides she is investigating that building that came down, so we will cover everything about her, but I need to ask how my assistant is doing.
-Luckily she is fine, they had to operate on her because she broke her arm, and if things go well maybe she will be released today, but I assure you something if she is fine it is no thanks to you, I know Emi is going to be upset with me, for this, but you are abusing her and giving her job after job even out of her working hours?
I couldn't help it that this lady made me shiver, I had just come from facing a bloody monster, and yet the look on Emi's boss's face made me fearful, but I still looked at her defiantly.
She changed her cold look and put a smile on her face, then she licked her lip, which reminded me of what Hide was doing and made me more afraid.
-You're my type for sure Hikaru, and I see you inherited that same defiant eyes of your sister, I love it, but if Emi wants to succeed in this is the only way left for her, although now she will be a little bit out of it... This girl gives me more work, but even if it's hard to believe, I'm fond of her.
I didn't know what to answer her, but she went to the machine, took out a coffee for herself, and then a ramen for me.
-As I remember what Emi was telling me, you like this, don't you?
-Yes... Thank you, she didn't have to bother.
-On the contrary, if you want one day I can take you to a good ramen restaurant I know.
Colmillos for some reason approached us.
-Hikaru, they already moved Emi to another room, soon she will be allowed to have visitors, Aerosol asked me to tell you that.
-But who is your handsome friend Hikaru? - he said again licking his lips.
Don't tell me this woman is that type?
-They call me Colmillos, she has an aroma of whisky, coffee and cigar, she should take care of herself a little....
She now moved closer to Colmillos staying very close to him, maybe you would like to take care of me, you could do it together, if you want to.
Even Colmillos had become nervous, it was an unusual thing to see.
-Excuse me ma'am, I have a girlfriend. - Colmillos lied.
Kyo's mobile phone rang, he took it out and looked at it, he put on a much more serious face.
-I'm sorry, I have to answer it, then let's continue with this conversation, and when your family passes by, I'll go see Emi later, Hikaru.
-Yes. I answered with sorrow.
I felt like a prey, being watched by a hungry lioness.
-Seriously how do you manage to end up in situations like that now I have to worry about a thirty year old Hika.
-Aki hug me, I think I understand now why Emi is intimidated by her, I felt helpless, I'd rather a thousand times you put Hide in front of me and I swear I'm not kidding, I'm afraid of her....
She looked at me as if it was a joke, but when she saw my face, she just hugged me... it felt so good to be able to feel Aki's hugs.
-The dwarf is right, even I felt like a toy next to her.... she made me feel... I'd rather keep this reflection to myself...
-I think I understand you Colmillos.
