Chapter 261

Kenichi was waiting on the main building lounge. He stood in front of the glass window as he watched the sky gradually turned dark. A lot of unwanted case happened today. They had not found the group of young men yet, the group of tourist was still out there and his employees added another headache. He closed his eyes to ease his caotic mind.

He did not understand many why the employees refused to go home and chose to stay there to fulfill their duty. In adddtion, The staff from next shift had come, only one was absent because his bus was no longer available. As a boss, he should be happy to have such as dedicated employees. However, now they were facing snow strom category three. He wondered if they did not consent about their own safety and well being. At this stage, He was more than happy to let them take a day off or finished early.

"Sir, why don't you wait in your room ?" The manager on duty asked politely.

The manager question brough Kenichi mind back to present "I'm waiting for my wife. You can go home now if you want. I'm here to look after everything. Your family surely need you"

"My wife and kids are already at home with my parents. They'll be fine. They asked me to stay here. The wind has started to peak "

Kenichi nodded "Alright. Do we have enough room ? why don't you take my room and give me smaller room"

"We do have enough. We prefer sharing with many people, will make us warmer"

"Alright then. Oh..Make sure our people have proper meal too"

The manager bowed. He was very grateful to have a wise leader. He worked in hospitality industry for longtime. When he worked in different company, once he faced similar situations like this. The big bosses stayed in their confort house and let him shoulder all responsibility. None was care about the safety and wellbeing small staffs.

Kenichi looked at the window again and mumbled to himself "where is Yu ? why is she not here yet"

From there to his private cottage, it only took fifteen minutes drive. It was already more than an hour since Yu left, but Cacha was still not there yet. He was afraid they had accident. Aside from the strong win, the road was slippery due to the froze.

When Cacha arrived at the hotel, She saw Kenichi on the daze on the lounge. "Darling"

Kenichi turned his body around. He ran to her side and pulled her to his embrace "Thank God, You're here"

"What happen ?" Cacha blinked her eyes.

He looket at Yu who held big plastics bag in both of his hands "why did you take so long to came back ?"

Cacha enlightened why he was so happy to see her. He must worry about her "Darling, please don't blame Yu. I'm sorry, it's my fault. He had to wait for me to finish cooking first and I asked him to stop on the supermarket first. I bought a lot of snack for kids to share"

"Snack for kids ?"

Cacha nodded "Storm is scary for kids. When the kids are restless the adult will be panick even more. We need some snack to calm children"

Kenichi was speechless. Sometime, his wife could come up with unthinkable idea.

Yu went to the receptionist "Lady boss bought them all. Give them to our customers for free, especially kids "

"Every one can have it if you want" Cacha added.

"Thank you Madam" the receptionist was a young lady, she loved snack very much.

"Why is your receptionist still here ? should you let her go home earlier to avoid the storm" Cachas asked Kenichi.

"They refuse to go home"

"They ?"

"I have fifty stubborn employees. Lets go to our room first"

Cacha did not complaint about her room. For her, This double room is enough for her "Did you especially asked for Ryokan style room ?"

"No. it's what they gave me. I told them that I'm okay with any room as long as it have enclosed bathroom"

Cacha put her insulated food bag on the table and arranged the food for him

"Darling, Yu said you didn't have your lunch. You have to eat something, I cooked chicken soup. Lets eat first"

Kenichi signed "How coule I have appetite? A group of young men did not turn up when the skii resort closed. We haven't found them yet"

"Darling, you still have to eat. The storm is not here yet, who knows what will happen in the next few days. We need you here, I don't want you to be sick. Please eat something"

Cacha spooned some rice and put a piece of beef on top of the rice "Come, eat some"

Kenichi reluctantly opened his mouth and let her feed him. Cacha just prepared another spoon of rice when his phone rang.

He answered it "that's good" and hang up.

Cacha knew it must be a good new since a smile appeared on his stern face

"Babe, They found them. We just need to wait until the group of tourist is back".

Cacha smiled "That's good. Eat more"

He held her hand and made her sit on his lap "Mr dear wife, feed me"

"Can you use your hand ?"

"No. I'm starving. Don't have any energy left"

Cacha twitched. She picked the spoon up and feed him. The man who claimed he was too weak then feed her in turn.

Kenichi went back down to the loughe area after he finished his meal. He was still unease until all his customers was back safe and sound.

Cacha had anything to do so she accompanied her husband. They sat together down the couch. She could not help him much but her presence was enough to calm him heart.

Kenichi closed his eyes enjoying her natural body smell, while she leaned on his chest playing with her phone. She was chatting with Alice who just gave birth.

"Darling, my brother has another boy. They named him Archie" She showed him the baby pictures.

"He's cute, but our boy will be cutter"

Cacha laughed "lets see"

"Sister in law, Bro "Jun greeted the couple.

"Jun !?" Cacha was surprised. She did not have any idea that Jun was there as well.

"I asked him to come incase I need his help. You know, Yu is reliable but he is not good at diplomacy" Kenichi explained briefly before he asked Jun "How are they ?"

"We sent them back to where they stay after we warned them about the danger"

"Good. You have a good rest now. Ask the receptionist for for the key, but You and Yu have to share room. we don't have enough room at this moment"

"No problem. Thank You sir" Jun was deathly tired. He just grabbed his key and went to his room.

"Don't forget to eat your dinner. Tell Yu to" Cacha reminded Jun

"Yes Madam"

It was already eight o'clock, the storm coming earlier than expected. The wind was getting wilder and snow started falling. the tourists were not back.

Kenichi asked the receptionist to call the tour leader again.

"Sir, dinner is ready" The duty manager came.

"okay"
