‘How are you?’

Aoki was sitting at the back passenger eat in black shining Toyota Alphard. She just finished her vocal practice and on her way to a recording studio for a show. She read again the mail that she received from him.

‘Busy as usual’

Kei looked at his phone and smiled when saw ‘1 New Mail’ was written on the screen. He quickly opened the mail.

‘Why don’t you take a break?’

Aoki who was checking her other mails quickly scrolled up when her phone vibrated. Sometimes it was not him but it never failed her from hoping. She smiled when it was really him. She looked at the car’s tinted window, watching the moving scenery while thinking if she could take a break just like other people.

‘If I have a choice, I’ll take it’

Kei looked upward towards the round clock at the wall. He had 10 minutes more before the practice started again. He took a gulp of mineral drink and placed it beside him. He checked his phone and smiled.

‘Make the choice if you don’t have it,’

Aoki smiled. If only you know what I was facing now. Aoki thought. She didn’t reply the mail. She didn’t know what to reply and she needed to enter the building now. She stepped in the dressing room for make up and dress up session.

Kei sighed. The break time had ended and Aoki didn’t reply his message. He regretted that he chose that sentence to reply her. If only he reply ‘I understand’. He was too scared that she would be curious.

Sakura sighed. She was in an office room, sitting opposite the owner of the room at his desk. The desk was messy, filled with photos and papers. It was as mess as the head of the owner.

“The number of the victims keeps increasing and we lost every suspect,” The owner of the room, Inspector Tegoshi said seriously.

Sakura held herself. It was a habit that happened when she was thinking hardly.

“This girl is not found yet right?” Sakura said, placing her hand on one of the photos on the desk.

“Yes, it had been a week now, not even a sight of her, the chance of she is still alive keep decreasing and now another two victims are added,” Inspector Tegoshi answered, as he stood up from his desk and looked outside his office window. It just to help him clear his head as there were so many cases to handle.

“I afraid the kidnapper motive is to sell their inner organs.” Inspector Tegoshi sighed. This was his first serial case since he was just promoted. Plus, Kyoto was a peaceful town before this started to happen.

“How do you know that this is a kidnap case?” Sakura asked as she found from the papers on the desk that there was not ransom asked after the victim disappeared.

“It just a guess based on the evidences collected. There is no reason for them to run away,” Inspector Tegoshi turned to Sakura and smiled although it was obviously fake.

“I see,” Sakura replied, nodding her head.

*************

The night has come and the trio; Hotaru, Kazumi and Kairi returned to the mansion. Today, they returned earlier than yesterday.

“Welcome home,” Rin greeted her sisters and Kazumi as she saw them while she was walking down the stairs.

“We’re home,” They replied tiredly.

Kazumi smiled to Rin and slowly walked to the elevator. Hotaru patted Rin’s shoulder and looked at her with her tired face. Rin smiled awkwardly.

“Are you okay?” Rin asked as the burden on her shoulder become heavier. She quickly held held Hotaru’s arm to help her stood properly.

“I want sleep,” Hotaru said with zombie tone.

“I’ll send you to your room,” Rin replied. Hotaru did sound like she needed help.

“It’s okay,” Hotaru suddenly said cheerfully and walked to the elevator.

Rin smiled. Hotaru was really unique and unpredictable. It seemed that everyone was too tired to used the stairs.

“Have you had your dinner?” Kairi asked kindly. It was a common question that she loves to ask beside ‘How are you?’.

“Not yet, I thought of making instant noodle just now,” Rin replied.

“I’m sorry. Since we are busy, your meals become disorganized,” Kairi said to Rin, smiling.

“It’s okay. I should be learning how to cook by now,” Rin replied softly, replying her sister’s smile.

“Oh! Maybe I can cook for dinner tonight,” Kairi said cheerfully, quickly placed her handbag on the couch in the living room and walked to the kitchen.

“I’ll help you,” Rin said and walked to the kitchen.

After the dinner, as usual Kairi will wash all the plates and utensils used. Rin was in the dining room, tidying the dinning table. Then she came to Kairi and brought glasses that needed to be washed.

“Thanks,” Kairi smiled and turned to Rin. Then, she stopped smiling.

“Is there something wrong?” Rin asked as she noticed the change in Kairi expression.

“Nothing. I’m surprise that you’ve grew a lot and I just notice it,” Kairi replied, smiling again.

“You’re a bit slow, Kairi,” Rin replied teasingly and laughed.

Kairi joined the laugh although she was thinking of something else. She was not sure why she hoped it was Kota who was placing the glasses. She smiled slightly. Maybe it was because she was used to it.

***************

The drama that Ryosuke acted in it has ended. Kota switched off the television, went to his bed and closed his eyes. Hikaru walked to his bed and saw his phone. He smiled. He hoped she was not busy tonight. Somehow, Hikaru was not worried about disturbing her since she would say directly if she was busy.

“Want to call her?” Kota asked as he noticed Hikaru had smiling at the phone for quite long.

“Yeah,” Hikaru replied confidently.

“I’m envy you,” Kota replied, looking at the ceiling.

“Then, why not you start the move too,” Hikaru replied and walked to the sliding door, disappeared through the curtains.

Kota sighed. It was not as easy as you Hikaru. She had has someone in her heart.

“By the way,” Hikaru’s head suddenly appeared at the sliding door, between the dark curtains.

“Don’t ever lock this door,” Hikaru continued, smiling and disappeared between the curtains again.

Kota smiled slightly as he placed his both palm under his head. Seeing Hikaru that happy, maybe he should start the move too.

After few minutes, Hikaru went in and locked the sliding door himself.

“What happen?” Kota asked.

“She was tired and want to sleep,” Hikaru replied, pouting.

“Maybe she means, you’re tired with today practice and need some rest,” Kota said teasingly and laughing.

Hikaru kept pouting and quickly jumped on the bed, pulling the comforter, covering his whole body.
