Chapter 5

Page 43- _Too formal for the normal_

Buried in guilt, Rintaro became wary of Ayami sniffing out her secluded lie.

Rintarõ.... _...(How does she know!?, was she standing there when it happened? What if something happens to Keisuke?)_

Cunning thoughts preyed on her innocent mind sinking her back into a desolating air of despairing fear. Clad in sweaty palms she attached her hands to the back, rolled her eyes and slowly hid her guilty look under a shocked expression.

Takahiro.... _What do you mean Rin is involved?_ *gasps*

The prince's eyes popped out-open while releasing a slight gasp. He was lost in a whirlpool of the dramatic events occurring, or so Rin thought. The look splashed on him gave her goosebumps, trapped in an effortless conscience ready to spill the beans.

Ayami.... _I bequeath my forgiveness on behalf of prince Takahiro's exaggerated reaction. Furthermore allow me to grant you a prerequisite explanation....._

Rin was jail-broken from her guilt prison-mind, and her ears went tense from eagerness. She patiently tainted a poor attempt at holding her fervent mind, dying with the desire to know what Inata wanted to say.

Ayami.... _Perceiving on a self-based judgement, i'd certify the cause to be that tray clasping the mixed fruit juice._

She raised her index finger pointing towards the oak white golden crested chest of drawer slammed in the corner. Assuming she expected a more clear and somewhat understandable speech explanation, Rin's eyes grandly grew wide in her confused sockets.

Takahiro.... _Huuh!, i don't think i get what you're...?_

Rintarõ.... (_Good job Hiro!. I think i'm on the safe side, but i still need to know what's wrong with Keisuke!_)

Rin's mind exclaimed in pleasant relief. She felt at ease having found a heaven-sent messenger to help her understand. But soon she'd rue the moment her ignorant brain failed to understand the Deceptive Prince of Analysis.

Takahiro.... _Umm.... if i've reached the same conclusion as you Lady Inata, i'd say uh-oh for sure. Or in your case, something hard to understand._ *smiles*

Ayami.... _Was that an attempt at a joke?_ *death glare*

Rintarõ.... _Uhm, err..... Hiro?_

Takahiro.... _Oh yeah Rin. ....What Ayami meant is that Keisuke probably drank the mixed fruit juice *WHICH HE IS DEFINITELY ALLERGIC TO* placed in that tray. For as long as i can remember, he has been allergic to fruit juices with either oranges, peaches, grapes, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries....._

Rintarõ.... _Alright alright! i get it!. He's allergic to a ton of fruits right?_

Takahiro.... _No that's not it, he's allergic to the juices not the fruits. He can eat oranges but gets sick when he drinks orange JUICE, which i still find confusing._ *murmurs*

Rintarõ.... _Ahh, Ohh i think i kinda understand now! (I did take a sip of juice when i came back from the hot spring, which means....., When we kissed he probably got some of it in his mouth)_

Her face was left fully wrapped in fluster as she pondered on the realization. She felt an embarrassing blush creep onto her face, raising the temperature of her fully packed red cheeks.

Ayami..... _Now that you're all acclimated of your probable face assessments, i propose we start discussing on who's going shopping for medicine._

Haruno raised a significantly high brow while leaning towards Takahiro. She boarded his left shoulder with her amusing face and chin packed of a shiny smile, then blended a question hidden in whispers.

Rintarõ.... _Hey Hiro, why does Lady Inata look so uptight today?, and her speech pattern is even more formal and outright confusing than usual. I mean she's too formal than her normal formal, and don't get me started on confusing._ *whispers*

Takahiro.... _I'm at a loss for words too, remember it's my first time back here in years. And even when i was at the imperial palace, i barely visited this house so i don't know if there's anything special today_ *whispers*

Rintarõ.... _Oh ok, sorry for asking, i might have brought back bad memories._

Held in a wistful expression she slightly nodded on his shoulder as if pressing a short bow.

Takahiro.... _Don't worry, i'm all over that. It's only Keisuke i'm worried about. He may not show it but he actually doesn't feel comfortable being in a place like this._

For a moment there Rin caught a glimpse of kindness towards Kei in Takahiro. "He isn't sincere with his feelings but he definitely doesn't want to keep fighting over everything with Keisuke," she thought to herself halting a plan for the future.

And back to the matter at hand, everyone eyed each other exchanging glances of inner lazy minds. Amidst the silent traits of rejecting faces, Rintaro thought of a good plan which her mind lied to be.

To be continued......
