Chocolate + You

"Please let me go!" I looked away from his face.

Ting!

The lift stopped at the ground level carpark.

His grip held strong on my wrist. It was starting to hurt.

"Come along. Don't even think of running away or I'll hurt-"

"Bloody hell!" He muttered under his breath and released me from his grip and ran away as if he saw something.

Still confused, I watched him climbed down the metal railings and escaped.

Forsaken child..
Forsaken child..

"Ayano!" Suddenly a figure grabbed hold of me and plunged me into the car.

And it immediately drove off.

"Track him down! Make sure he doesn't get away!" Yatsuga ordered.

"Yes sir!"

Along with the other cars we sped up to look for the guy earlier.

The bodyguards got out to of the cars and dispersed for a little while.

"I think we lost him.."

The car halted, outside of the mall.

Yatsuga got out of the car and punched the wall in frustration.

"Temee.." He muttered.

I was told to stay in the car.

"Yatsuga.."

"Useless. Ieyasu and his pathetic rules." He muttered under his breath.

A ringing sound emerged from his pocket.

"Ugh. What now?" He grabbed it from his pocket and answered them.

The inaudible voice from the other side of the phone chatted with him for a whole minute.

"Alright." He uttered, before getting into the car.

The driver restarted the engine and drove off.

I looked at him.

He stared outside the window quietly, without a word.

"I'm sorry." I blurted.

"It's not your fault."

I thought about what the guy said earlier.

How does he know my name? Forsaken child eh?..

The car eventually stopped in front of my house.

Yatsuga got out and escorted me to the front door.

He showed no emotion.

I wonder what the guy said to him just now.

"My apologies for not arriving quickly to save you. Please forget about what happened." He bowed, somewhat regretful on the incident.

"Yatsuga." I called out, as he made his way into the car.

He stopped.

"I'll make sure he won't get away. Have a good rest of the day," and with that he left.

Morning after,

I tied my hair into a side ponytail and sprayed perfume all over. The four of us were going to a carnival that day. I was excited.

I took out my purse to check how much I should bring for that day.

I should just bring decent amount. Dont want to be spending too much for it!
