Boss Rimi's posts

Kaneko nodded, "Very well then." She said quietly. "Would you like me to leave you so you could rest?" In truth, she just wanted to curl up beside him and sleep. She wasn't sleepy, just tired. Her body felt tired and sometimes she feared she was catching the fever as well. If that were true, she hoped she could at least make it until he was fully better. It would make things easier.

"Oh really?" Mia began and giggled, that sounded like a lot of fun! "So you have little costume parties? Ah, that sounds like such fun and I bet all of your costumes are amazing!" She commented, taking another bite of her slice of cake. It was so good, very sweet! Takashi's comment confused her though. "Mori-Senpai? What do you mean? Aren't you able to be yourselves everywhere?"

Kaoru waited and would look over at his brother waiting there like a silly lovestruck child. Kaoru smiled and looked down at his phone, their plan had even fooled him. He was impressed. Hikaru looked up at Alice and was a little nervous but he was sure he'd catch her. "It's okay Alice, I'll catch you. You can trust me!" He said to her as he waited for her to jump. It was a big jump, from the second floor but he wouldn't let her get hurt.

"Don't worry, you didn't burn anything so that alone is a great thing." He said, sticking out his tongue at her teasingly then continuing to eat his breakfast. "I'm surprised you're not eating anything though. You should be eating breakfast you know, most important meal of the day after all." He chuckled after saying that though. That was so childish of him to say.

Once he finished his breakfast, he finished up his coffee and stood to take the dishes to the sink. "I'll call in sick and get ready so we can go." He said and headed to his room to get ready then called up his boss who wasn't too happy. "I know, but it was pouring hard yesterday and well it's only natural to get sick in a downpour." Cliff sniffled and managed to cough away from the phone. "Huh? Oh, okay sir. Thank you." After hanging up he laughed and made his way to the living room.

"Oh...right." Kaneko looked down at her hands. She should make him his herbal remedy. She still had the books so she could look through them and get the herbs they needed. Kaneko was sure that they still had some extras in little plastic bags. "Would you like me to make that for you instead?" She asked. She would if he wanted him to. Ah, she should just make it anyway!

Clint snickered, "Fair play." He answered. "I am honestly concerned for your safety. However, we'll be in a public area so I'm sure you'll be just fine." He said, sipping his coffee. "Just stay close okay? Just in case?" Clint knew he was probably annoyingly over protective, but people always seemed to want to hurt her so of course he was going to worry about her. When she asked about the eggs, he nodded. "I like them. I think you did a good job Mads." He told her.

Mia smiled and nodded. "Likewise Kyoya-senpai." She answered. She watched him walk away then looked back at Mori and his cousin, honey. "So, what is it that you all do here exactly?" She asked them curiously. "Do you really just sit and eat cake while drinking tea?" She asked.

At this, Mitsukuni looked at her and shook his head. "Well kind of but not really." He said. "We keep customers entertained. We talk to them, listen to them, have cake and tea with them. It's nice. Everyone is happy. Here, there are no favorites. We spend time with everyone who wants to spend time with us."

Kaoru and Hikaru walked out of the grand house. They headed back to the car and leaned against it for a while. "All part of the plan. Alice is very smart. She learns well and very fast, I'm impressed." Hikaru said and looked at his brother. "Wait in the car, I'll go get her now." He said. Kaoru nodded and got behind the driver's wheel. He waited patiently while Hikaru made his way towards the house again. He noticed her window and waved up at her then stood below her window with his arms out so he could catch her if she did end up jumping. It was a crazy plan, but crazy was all they knew. The twins never schemed something 'calm'. No, it had to seem impossible and it would always work. If not, they always had a backup plan.

Clint laughed softly. "I was expecting you to tell me to go to work and lecture me on why skipping work is a bad thing." He said to her. He took a bite of his toast and started to eat his eggs. This breakfast was just right. He didn't like to eat too much but eggs were something he enjoyed eating for breakfast. Only for breakfast. "I'll call the boss after breakfast then we can get ready and head out."

Mia looked over at the tall blonde male who a bunch of people had gathered around. From where she sat, he seemed like a very good person. Friendly. Clearly since so many people seemed to like him. She smiled politely, it was nice to know that everyone here seemed to be very kind people. She was expecting quite the opposite.

You see, sometimes having so much money made you a bad person. It was nice to know that these people were still very kind and didn't think very highly of themselves. They didn't look like the snobs back in other schools she had been to. "I see. He seems nice." She answered. "Well..you all do." She added after a moment of thought. It was true, even though she didn't know them very well yet. It was easy to see though just by looking at them.

Haruhi smiled back at Mori-Senpai and looked at Tamaki who had made his grand entrance as was custom now. She laughed softly and shook her head. It was always amusing to see the prince walk in so lavishly.

The twins listened closely to what Alice had to say. Kaoru was taken aback. "What do you mean? We are here to rescue you. Just like you asked remember?" He whispered. Hikaru chuckled quietly. He knew where this was going. "What do you mean you can't? You're seriously going to just go? You're really going to leave your friends behind? Seriously?!" His voice rose, they had to make this look realistic. They had to make it believable. "You know, we thought you were our friend Alice. All the years we spent together, they didn't mean anything to you?" He asked. Kaoru was catching on and rested a hand on his twin's shoulder. "Let's just go. We tried. Clearly she'd rather make her mother happy than herself."

"Right...well I'll come pick you up after work. I'll have to clean up quickly before we go though." Clint explained. It worked better this way, at least he wouldn't look all messy and have oil stains on his hands and clothes when they did head out to shop. It would be interesting, shopping with her but he was sure nothing bad would happen. "Could call in sick." He hinted with a smile.

Mitsukuni smiled up at his taller cousin. Yay! He had made Takashi happy. This was good. He only wanted to make his cousin happy, it's why he decided to let him befriend this girl. He still didn't trust her completely, but he wanted to give her a chance. What did she have that his cousin seemed to like so much? She seemed so...ordinary. There was nothing interesting about her. His eyes lowered down to focus on the cake and began to eat it in silence.

Mia glanced up at the male who had spoken up. He seemed very calm and polite. Like Takashi. It had to be part of the requirements to get into the club. That's what she believed. "Oh!" She looked at the smaller male who was digging into his cake and sipping his tea. She looked at him, then at Mori-Senpai, then back at Kyoya-senpai.

"Hey!" Haruhi whined, getting Mia to look their way. She looked back at Kyoya and smiled. "Ah, thank you Kyoya-Senpai!" She said politely. "I really appreciate it..." She said and lifted her teacup to take a small sip. "I see that some members are missing. The twins you mentioned and Tamaki-Senpai. Will they not be here today?" She didn't mind, she was just curious.

"Woah, she walked away." Hikaru said. "That counts as a loss. A disqualification automatically. We win." Kaoru answered with a smirk. When the older woman left and opened the door, both twins looked towards Alice who made a beeline towards them. "Hello Alice." They both spoke in unison. "Are you okay?" Hikaru asked. Kaoru leaned closer and whispered in Alice's ear, "We need to go. The three of us. The car is waiting and I'll fill you in when we are in the car. But we are here to take you from here." He said. Hikaru pulled them all into a small group huddle. "We will wait until dark. You will open your window, then I will come, you jump out your window, I will catch you. Kaoru will wait for us in the car. We have to wait until your mom sleeps. Or we can just walk out now."

I know I said I wouldn't go anywhere.. Clint looked up from his cup of coffee. His eyes now on Maddie who was making him some toast as per request. "But?" He nudged. She wanted to go somewhere didn't she? That's why she had said what she said in that tone. There, she had said it. She wanted to go with him. It was to be expected. No one could stay indoors without wanting to step out for a little while. Besides, staying inside all the time drove people mad. Or could lead to you being depressed. "You want to go with me...to the store?" He asked. He didn't think she'd want to go with him to work. She'd be bored there. Plus it was pretty loud in there sometimes and pretty hot as well.
