Boss Rimi's posts

Allen wanted to accompany her, even saying please. He must have really been worried for her safety. It was good though, she'd be worried the entire time if she left him alone in her house. "Okay Allen, you can come with me and when I'm all done with what I must do we will go visit your manor one last time. I promise." It would also serve as a way for him to grab any clothes he wanted to bring with him.

"Come along then Allen." Kaneko made sure to grab her purse and then looked at their things. They might as well take their things with them since they weren't going to return. With her free hand, she picked up their things, grabbed her purse and the house keys. Walking to the front door she looked around, making sure she wasn't forgetting anything. This was the last time she would see this house. Kaneko walked out of the house with Allen out into the bright and warm sun.

The keys were placed under the mat after the door had been locked and closed. "Let's go." Her voice was soft as she led them away from the house and towards her workplace which was slightly busy when she arrived. She hoped that Allen would be fine with the noise. "Ah Kaneko, you're here for your check right?" A woman asked. Kaneko smiled and nodded. The woman noticed the things and Allen and gave Kaneko a questioning look. "Who's your friend? Going somewhere?" Kaneko looked at Allen then at the woman. "I'm just moving out and I wanted to have my friend move in with me is all." she answered quickly. The woman only nodded and left to get the check.

That morning, Clint snuck into Maddie's room and replaced the rag with a fresh one then left to let her continue sleeping. He busied himself with making breakfast and called his work to inform the boss that he wouldn't be able to make it today. "Something came up. It's personal but I'll be there tomorrow for sure." Clint didn't like missing a work day, that was one less pay day. Money was important, needed to pay for bills and other things. He wasn't rich like other people around.

He had enjoyed his breakfast and around lunch time, went to check in on Maddie again. "Oh, you're awake now. How'd you sleep?" Clint asked her. Approaching her, he rested his hand on her forehead and sighed. "Well it's gone down quite a bit but it's still lingering there. This is quite a serious fever but you'll be better in no time. "How are you feeling, have any pain anywhere?" He asked her quietly. Friends or strangers, he was going to look out for her. "I don't have work today, so I'm all ears if you want to talk."

Kaneko nodded, no credit cards. Okay that sounded easy enough. Anything they needed, she'd just have to pay with actual paper money. "Okay then, I'll do that." When he mentioned getting a new phone, her dark eyes widened. "I hadn't even thought about getting a new phone. Great idea, thank you Allen." She told him. Getting a new phone could wait, first she had to get the money and then buy Allen a few pieces of clothes. "I need to go pick up my last check from work and cash it in. "Would you like to accompany me? Or will you be alright waiting until I return?" She asked him. It shouldn't take much time, she'd be in and out. The bank might take more time if there was a line. If not then she'd be in and out quickly too.

"After the bank visit, I'll get you some clothes then come back so that we can leave. I'll also call and cancel my phone service before we leave. I can always get a new phone when we arrive at our destination." Wherever that might be. Her father hadn't even called her yet, he probably called a friend instead. Perhaps Allen was still being hunted and they didn't even know it.

A way to help. Surely there had to be a way that Allen could help out with this situation. Kaneko was silent as she thought long and hard about this. "Allen, I'll need you to trust me and just go along with what I say. You see, I'm afraid using my credit card might tell people where we are and I don't what that. So my plan is to put my card under a different name. That way maybe my father and his friends won't know it's us." She explained, hoping he understood what she was trying to do. "I could just carry cash around though, that would be much harder to trace but I'd still need to go to the bank and make a withdrawal. What do you think I should do?" She asked him. His advice would be helpful.

Maybe if she withdrew money, she could only take out a small sum. Just enough to buy Allen some new clothes. What kind of clothes did he like though? The clothes he had been wearing looked to be comfortable, maybe she should stick to that theme. Of course she was going to get him the best clothing she could buy.

Maddie was out like a light, and Clint didn't want to disturb her. Hopefully she'd feel better the next day. To keep himself busy, Clint put away her leftovers then washed the dishes and then went back to finishing up folding the laundry. Anything really to kill time since he wasn't exactly tired. Every so often, he'd go check on Maddie to make sure she was fine. She still felt warm but at least she wasn't shivering anymore. So many questions, she was a mysterious girl but she had told him that he used to talk to her back when they were much younger. Had they been friends before? Was that why he was helping her subconsciously? Because he knew who she was?

As it got later, the laundry was folded and put away. Doors were locked, lights were turned off and Maddie was carried off to the guest bedroom where she was laid in bed and tucked in. The wet rag was placed on her forehead after more rubbing alcohol had been rubbed on her forehead. "Sleep well Maddie." Clint closed her door behind him and headed to his own room then to get some needed sleep.
