One In A Million Stars

Chapter Seven - The Kiss

Mizuki P.O.V.

"They're here, Ms. Hoshiko."

Nina knocks at my office door.

I walk out from my office to greet the overseas guests that we are receiving today.

"Welcome to Japan, Mr. Joseph and Mr. Paul."

I reach out my hand to shake theirs.

"Thank you, Ms. Hotaru. We're pleased to finally be here."

One of them says with a friendly smile across his face.

"Sorry I made my assistant to pick you up instead of me."

I say apologetically to them.

"It's alright. Actually we brought our own translator to assist us during our stay here."

Another one introduces the man that they brought along.

He smiles and nods at me.

"You're Mizuki, right? I never thought I'll meet you here. Do you remember me?"

He reaches out for a hand shake.

I pause for a while before I shake his hand.

"I apologize. I think you're mistaking me for someone else. I'm Hoshiko Hotaru, the advisor of Bonten group."

He raises his eyebrows.

"I'm sorry for my confusion. I'm Fujiyama Kohaku, pleased to make you acquaintance."

He smiles without saying anything else.

We proceed to the meeting room where Mikey and Takeomi already waited for their arrival. Thing goes smoothly as both parties reached an agreement at the end of meeting.

We bring them for lunch after the meeting ends. Thankfully the communication between us seems better with Fujiyama around. Soon it's night time. Sanzu and Koko join when they continue to one of the club owned by Bonten.

"Who's that?"

Koko asks when he sees Fujiyama sitting at the table across us.

"He's the translator they hired. I think they are going to stay longer than we expected."

I tell him.

"But do you know him? You keep looking at his direction."

"Unfortunately he recognized me as Mizuki earlier."

I tell Koko, making him frown.

"Uh oh, so how?"

"I told him he's mistaken."

I chuckle.

"Who's he exactly?"

Sanzu asks.

"We went to the same university and I used to have crush on him. It feels odd that he remembered me."

Koko almost spills his drink.

"Eww...so that's your taste in men."

I laugh.

"What's wrong? He seems fine."

Koko leans over to Sanzu.

"Someone is fangirling over that four-eyed guy."

He whispers.

"No wonder she doesn't droll over our Bonten's men. She prefers gentlemen over gangsters."

Takeomi chuckles.

Afterwards they keep teasing me over Fujiyama even after we part ways with them and back to our building.
