Chapter 23 - He is my LOVE

I turn around the corner. I need to get out of this place. I have decided that I don't give a f.u.c.k about the Kamiyama family. They can go to hell. I can't risk it to help them. If I have to go to prison, I will go to prison. But, I won't let them know my secret. I will never let that Kamiyama bastard know my secret.

"Rie Chan, it's you."

My feet stop on its own when I hear that voice. Tachibana Miwako is standing right in front of me. Perfect timing! That's why I don't like leaving my house. The risk of meeting people like her is too high.

She walks toward me with a smile. "Cousin, I didn't see you for such a long time."

I put my hands in my pockets and looks into her eyes. "Have you been living well with your rotten heart, cousin?"

She smiles at me like she hasn't heard my insult. She comes closer to me. "Is your prostitution business going well? You must be here for an abortion."

I let out a laugh. "Is that the best you can do? Prostitution?"

Miwako shoots daggers at me and starts blabbering, "You started out in middle school. You sold your body to male teachers and male classmates to help you pass the tests. In high school, you were involved with drugs. I thought that you would correct your way of life, Rie Chan. If you keep living this way, you would hurt grandfather's and grandmother's souls. I am disappointed in you."

Some people are like poop. No matter where they go, they can only spread bad smell. Takeuchi Miwako is the second daughter of my uncle. She is half a year younger than me. We went to the same schools until she moved away to college. The poop is back in the city.

"You are still a bitch," I smirk at her. "Did your husband divorce you after seeing your real face without makeup or your real heart?"

"You!!!" Her face contorts abnormally. She pauses for a moment. Her eyes quickly change. She raises her chin and smiles. "She is dying to see you, you know."

Kiyohira frowns when he hears their conversation. Prostitution and drugs? She isn't denying that woman either.

"If she is dying to see me, she should die already," She tells her crisply.

"My dear cousin, you have grown wings." Miwako flutters her eyes playfully. "I will make sure to tell her that you have finally found your courage to fly in the sky. She will be most happy to see you like this."

"Make sure that you do." Her smile is like spring. It is the same smile that she showed to Eichi in the elevator. Kiyohira watches Tachibana Miwako leave with a determined and angry look.

He asks, "Takeuchi, what was she talking about?"

She sighs. "It's bad manners to listen to other people's conversation."

"You are going to teach me manners?" He laughs at her. She's absurd. "You with your o.b.s.c.e.n.e language?"

"Yes, you bastard." She looks straight in his eyes. Her voice is low enough that only he can hear her. "From now on, we will only keep a professional relationship with each other. You will build my house. In return, I will keep going to your company as an errand girl and live in your house. You won't take me to dinners or touch me in bed. You won't call me to your office for anything. You won't force me to eat. This is the second and the last time that I am telling you. If you cross your limit again, I will break the contract and go to prison."

"Can you survive in the prison?" He notices that her hands are slightly trembling again. She hides it when she finds him staring at her hands. Something is wrong with her.

"Ah, you are right." She crosses her arms. "But, Kamiyama, I have nothing to lose. It's you who need my help. Your little brother is being bullied at school. You should be paying attention to your family instead of me. You are the freaking CEO of the Kamiyama Groups and the head of your family. Act like one."

"Someone like you doesn't need to tell me how I should act." He flicks her forehead. "Who told you that Takeshi is being bullied? There is not a living being in this world who can bully my younger brother. Don't makeup stories."

She sneers at him and massages her forehead. "Don't do that to my forehead. If you do it once more, I will kick your d.i.c.k."

"I prefer your lick instead of your kick." Her cheeks become fiery red when she hears his unexpected shameless words. Kiyohira blinks in surprise when he sees her expression. She can also make an expression like this. He pretends not to know and teases her by asking, "Are you feeling well? Your face is red."

She presses her palms against her cheek to hide her reddening cheeks and glares at him.

"Mr Kamiyama, have you found her?" The doctor is gasping for air. "I have checked the whole hospital. I have closed the exits. I have not found her. I am sorry, Mr Kamiyama. I can't find your girlfriend. I think that she has already escaped."

"Who is his girlfriend?" Takeuchi Rie bursts in anger. She points at Kiyohira. "Even if he is the last man on earth, I will never date him."

"Miss, you are here." The doctor recognizes her. She looks different when she is awake. Maybe, it's her fiery looks.

"Why did you think that she is my girlfriend?" Kiyohira is upset by Takeuchi's reaction. She didn't have to react that strongly. "That woman doesn't have any qualification to become my girlfriend. I don't even see her as a human being."

"I am not a human." She smiles at him sweetly. "I am an alien from an outer planet. I am here to kick your a.s.s and curse you to death. Kamiyama Bastard, it's you who don't have any qualification to become my boyfriend. Besides, I already like someone else. His name is Sakurano Kazu."

"What?" Kiyohira yells at her. "Who is that?"

She has a dreamy look on her face. "He is the one with a gentle smile. He is romantic, handsome, and cute. He looks super s.e.xy when he swims and his abs..." She squeals with a high pitch voice. She continues, "He can play basketball. He also knows martial arts. He can play the violin. He is always nice to the fairer s.e.x. He is my LOVE. If it's him, I don't mind getting married."

Kiyohira covers her mouth to prevent her from speaking anymore word. Each cell of his body is inflamed with rage. He recalls how she called that man's name that day in his car. She even dares to sleep with him while claiming that she loves someone else. Shameless!

The doctor watches these two. He can't decide whether they are enemies or lovers. What kind of relationship do they have? They look close, but they are glaring at each other like they are mortal enemies. Ah, they are like married couples.

"Check her head too." Kiyohira glances at the doctor who is making up theories about their relationship. "I think that she has vomited out whatever was left of her brain. I don't want to take back a crazy person with me.

Takeuchi Rie tries to kick him, but he evades her knee. She widens her eyes when he pinches her b.u.t.t when nobody's looking there.

"We will do a thorough check-up of your...friend." The doctor smiles at them.
