Part 1 - We need a vacation
I hadn't even touched my plate, I had in front of me an existing grilled Wagyū cut with garlic sauce on the side, Aki was nervous like me, but the doubt that Sou had seen Akari was eating me up, it made many questions come to my mind, if he saw her why didn't he say anything? If he sees her doesn't that mean he knows what she is? Sou works for the Modoruvita owners, does it have to do with what happened to Aki, shit the more I thought the more bad I felt, I was avoiding talking to Sou about his bosses for a while.
"Hikaru, what's wrong with you, you haven't eaten anything... you're still upset about the slapping? aren't you?"
Emi had brought me out of my own anxious thoughts.
"No, Emi, don't worry, I'm not upset about it anymore, it's just that...."
I looked at Aki who was also a little lost in her thoughts.
"When I came out of your room sister, I bumped into Sou, the thing is that I think he is hiding us that he can see Akari, I'm almost sure of that".
Emi looked at me a little surprised while she was eating from her plate happily like a child, something not very common for her.
"It doesn't make much sense, that idiot with how much of a perfectionist he is would have said something about a girl he doesn't know hanging around our house, so why are you saying he can see her?"
"When Sou met Aki head on, I had the feeling that they were seeing each other's eyes, but that's not all, instead of continuing straight on his way, he took a step to the side as if he was avoiding colliding with someone, if there's nothing there, why can't you see him, tell me why would you take a step to the side?"
Emi became a bit thoughtful....
"I don't think that's enough to say that he can see it, maybe he just stumbled or something... no he shouldn't, I can see why you think that, he works for that family the owner of the Modoruvita travel agency.... What does Aki think about all this?"
"Aki, honey Emi is talking to you, she was asking for your opinion about Sou".
"Excuse me, I'm still a little nervous, I think he can see me, when our eyes met, I got very anxious for some reason, besides it was as if he was judging me, I'm sure he knew I was there".
He repeats to Emi what Akari told him.
"Then I think it's time to talk to him, although, I'd rather he didn't have to do with all this, if it turns out that he's involved in all this, I'm sure you'll do something stupid, and however the matter will end badly, for us or for Kaede, I'm worried that she might get hurt because of her brother". - Emi said.
I looked at my plate, I split a piece of meat, and I threw it to my mouth, it was delicious the truth, I finished three quarters which was how I liked the meat, unfortunately I was eating more because I knew how expensive it was to eat here, than because I wanted to eat, definitely what happened with Sou had ruined my appetite.
"Let's have the conversation outside the house, I think it would be best in case something happens, but let's hope that everything is a misunderstanding, besides Sou does not match the characteristics of Akari's attacker, let's think positive... let's change the subject and relax we are here celebrating..." - Emi's face was still too tired.
She was trying to make the subject not to affect her, but her face showed the opposite.
The worst thing was that the situation was getting contagious, Aki also looked bad and if I had a mirror I would bet that my face would have the same face of anxiety and stress as them.
"I propose this, after Sou and moving, let's go to the cat temple, and stay a few days.... Well I say that, but that would mean I guess a bigger expense, but at least let's go for a day".
Emi grabbed my hand
"Let's do it, I'll see if we can stay a few days, it depends on what my boss says, but I loved the idea when you proposed it to me the first time, besides I think we have in common with Akari our taste for cats".
"We can really treat ourselves like this". - said Aki happily.
I repeated to Emi what Aki said.
"Yes, why not... We've been carrying so many things on our backs for a long time already, a change of air will be good for all three of us".
"Excuse me Aki, I wanted to take you once we got your body...."
"No, I don't mind Hika, I'd like to go soon, I always wanted to go there, but I could never go because of my parents' work".
"Then all said and done, we will take a little vacation with my little brother and sister". - Emi said very happily.
I took my phone, to write to Colmillos.
Hikaru: If I send you a picture of someone, do you think you could ask Peach to confirm if it was her attacker, I know it's insensitive, but maybe I found out who Two-Face is, in fact I hope I'm wrong.
Colmillos: Delicate matter, but send, we don't lose anything by trying.
Hikaru: I have to take a picture and send it to you.
Part 2 - End of suspicion
My phone vibrated again, I was with Aerosol watching a movie on the couch while he stroked my head something I enjoyed, but at the same time it reminded me of what I lost when our relationship was lost.
I took the phone, Hikaru had sent me the picture of the guy, I had no idea who he was at least and for some reason Hikaru did not tell me.
"You recognize him, Aerosol".
"No, the guy who attacked me was much more grotesque, this one looks like some kind of a stud who works in weird places".
"Well, it remains to ask Peach". - I said without much encouragement.
"Do you want me to do it?" - asked Aerosol.
I refused, I preferred to do it myself, I asked my friend to stop the movie, since I was interested in seeing the end.
Before going to talk to Peach, I went to the refrigerator to get a bag of blood so I could drink some.
Once with the bag in hand and a straw I went to them while I drank my blood.
O negative my favorite... Aerosol had to have gotten it for me at her job as a nurse.... Aerosol...
Sonar and Peach were very lovey-dovey together on the special chair Sonar had, they were basically starting to have sex, I thought you would notice me when I arrived, but I had to clear my throat so they would notice my presence.
"Hey pair of hotties, you know there are no walls here so we can't notice what you're doing".
Peach started to button up his shirt so I couldn't see his chest since his bra was hanging from one of the monitors.
"You could look the other way Colmillos, it's uncomfortable, besides... let us visit each other, idiot".
I shrugged my shoulders.
"I'm not going to see anything I haven't seen before, if they're almost always wallowing when their hormones are revved up".
Sonar was giving me the middle finger, which I found amusing.
I let the girls finish dressing, although from time to time I heard one or another kiss between them while they were laughing, I had to admit that I felt a little jealous, because I wanted to enjoy the same with someone who loves me...
"Now why interrupt our moment, Nier is working and you and Aerosol were watching a movie, it was sure that we wouldn't disturb this time".
I scratched my head, I have no problem with them making love to each other as they want, I can ignore them without any problem, but I also understand that for Nier and Aerosol it might be uncomfortable to watch them.
"I need to ask you something delicate Peach? Well I can only put it this way, if I show you a picture of Two-Face would you be able to recognize him?"
Peach was silent, no doubt what I said affected her, Sonar was making obscene gestures to me in sign language.
Peach squeezed one of her arms.
"Yes, I think so". - She said uncomfortably.
Sonar told Peach in sign language that she didn't need to do it, he even hugged her not to let go and prevent her from seeing the picture, he knew very well how difficult this was for our dear Manitas.
"Sonar love, let me if this helps, I can be closer to get revenge on him, I need this". - Peach said as he kissed his beloved on the mouth.
I approached the girls and Sonar kept looking at me very annoyed with me, I took out my cell phone and opened the photo he had sent me.
Before I show you the picture, I want to tell you that I have no fucking idea who he is, Hikaru sent it to me, he suspects that this guy might be Two-Faced or at least he says he might have something to do with Modoruvita.
"Just show me the picture and let's get this over with quickly".
"As you wish, my friend".
I showed her the screen of my phone, the tears on Peach's face fell from her eyes, her breath hitched very fast, she started shaking and panting, she hit my phone helplessly sending it flying and let out a heartbreaking scream while grabbing her head, I moved quickly so my phone wouldn't break as it fell, I tackled it before it hit the ground, I didn't even need Peach's confirmation, it was obvious that man was Hide.
Colmillos: it's him, don't go near him for any reason.
Hikaru: ok... That's a problem I'm with him, abandoned building in the border area, the one that burned down, I'm going to do something stupid.
Colmillos: Run, you idiot get out of there.
