Chapter 44 - Aunt’s Party

The next day, Ayumi and Sanyu went shopping together. She takes out a shirt and shows it to Sanyu, "Isn't this cute?" He smiles at her, "It really would suit you."

Ayumi's phone rings. She takes a look at who's calling her, "It's a random phone number.." "Then dont pick it up, dummy," Sanyu tells her as he looks at her phone. She declines the call and continues looking at other clothings.

Awhile later after going in another shop, her phone rings again; it was the same random number. Sanyu looks at Ayumi, "Could it be your mom? Maybe she's using another phone to call you from overseas?" "I doubt it, she has her own phone and it works perfectly fine," she tells him. After a short second her phone rings again, Ayumi looks at the phone but it wasn't the random phone number calling in, it was Kaya.

"Hello?" She answered the call. Sanyu looks at Ayumi as she talks over the phone. "Ayumi! I got invited over to my aunt's celebration party! She said I can invite you guys over! Yuuto is coming along, are you and Sanyu coming?" She talks over the phone. "Ummm, which aunt is it?" Ayumi asks. "The aunt whose married to that one director of the hospital, the rich one duh!" She answeres back.

Ayumi looks back at Sanyu as she talks to Kaya on the phone, "Oh, Th-then I'll ask Sanyu." "Great! It's tonight at 6! See you later if you can come!" Kaya hangs up the call. "What did Kaya say?" Sanyu asks her. "She's inviting us to her aunt's party.. will you be going?" Ayumi says.

"I don't know if I'll be going, I wanted to go look in for some part time jobs later on.." he sighs. "Then shall we just stay?" Ayumi didn't mind staying home. "You can go if you want, I'll drop you off and pick you up later if that's fine with you that is," He smiles. She thinks about it, "Will you be alright if I go?" "Don't worry I'll be fine, you just go have fun," he laughs as he hugs her. "Alright," she buries her face in his chest.

Sanyu looks at his watch, "Then, let's go back home, you'll have to get ready for the party." "Sure." They begin to walk back home.

"Assistant, dig in to who she tried to murder, I'm getting quite curious here," CEO Mira says as he looks at Ayumi's ID photo. "CEO Mira, you have a party to attend to in an hour," her servant says. "Ohh yeah. I almost forgot about that party. Find me my dress. An elegant one," she tells her servant. "Yes ma'am," the servant leaves to go find the dress.

About an hour later, Sanyu drops Ayumi off at the party, "Then, I'll see you later." "Walk back home safely," she smiles. He laughs, "Yeah thanks, have fun." As Ayumi enters the building, Sanyu makes a call to Yuuto. "Yeah what's up?" Yuuto answers his call. "Watch over Ayumi for me please, and if anything happens to her, let me know immediately," he seriously says.

Yuuto raises an eyebrow, "And YOU'RE not coming?" "I'm quite busy tonight. I'll leave her to you. Thanks," he hangs up the call and leaves. "AYYYUUUU!!" Kaya runs up to Ayumi and hugs her. "Hi," she laughs as she hugs Kaya back. "Ah by the way! There's some really great food here! Let's go eat!" Kaya excitedly says. Ayumi follows her lead.

The two girls eats some food together and talks. "Ah, by the way, the most famous CEO was invited here!" Kaya tells Ayumi. "CEO?" Ayumi questions. "Yeah, my aunt invited her.. ahhh what was her name again??" Kaya snaps her fingers as if it'd help her remember the name. Someone tapped on Kaya and Ayumi's shoulders, "You two are here too?"

The girls looks back and sees Mae. "Yeah we're here too, why? You got a problem or something?" Kaya asks. "I was invited over," Ayumi honestly answers. Mae looks around, "Just the two of you?" "If you're looking for Sanyu he's not here," Ayumi tells her. "Yuuto's here, though I'm not sure where he is," Kaya says.

An hour later CEO Mira walks in the building and everyone greets and welcomes her to the party. "Ahh CEO Mira! You've finally come! A bit late but that's alright!" Laughs Kaya's Aunt. "Sorry, I had trouble finding myself a perfect dress for your little beautiful party," CEO Mira smiles. "That's fine, please, sit down with us all and let's enjoy the party!" Kaya's Aunt leads the way.

"Ma'am, Sanyu seems to not be in his house at the moment," her assistant says. CEO Mira looks back at him, "Check the place if he's here, let me know when you're down scanning around." "Yes CEO," he leaves the check the building thoroughly.

"Where the hell is she?" Yuuto looks for Ayumi. "Would you girls like to hang out with me on the roof?" Mae asks. Kaya scoffs, "Who the hell would go to the roof? I'm not trying to get in trouble." "I mean.. the roof is a bit scary, since this building is extremely tall," Ayumi says. Mae sighs, "I just though I'd should relieve some stress, but if you girls don't want to come with me, that's fine. I can just go by myself."

"Yeah go by yourself," Kaya tells her. "So have fun," Mae leaves. "You too," Ayumi says.

"Are you hiring?" Sanyu asks the cafe manager. "No we're not hiring at the moment, look some please else," the manager tells him. "Thanks for letting me know, have a good day," he bows then leaves the cafe. Sanyu goes walk around and sees a flyer, he picks it up and reads it aloud, "Fukuoka Restaurant now hiring.." He takes a bus to the restaurant.

The assistant returns to CEO Mira and whispers to her, "Sanyu is not here. But that girl is." She looks back at her assistant, "He's here too it seems. I'll let them have their fun if they meet each other." "By 'he' you mean?" The assistant's eyes widens as if he knows who it was. CEO Mira smiles, "Right. The son of Director Fukuzaki."
