CHAPTER 7

Nia, practically came skipping through the door her cheeks rising higher and higher the closer she got to Mr. Hayama’s office. She thought to knock on the door but decided against it and just barged in. Agito, sat at his desk, all his attention on a sketch or something of that sort, which he quickly dropped face down upon her unwarranted entrance to his fortress of solitude.

“Well aren’t you gonna ask how it went?” she mused leaning over his desk. He looked back down at his work, turning his chair to straighten up some imaginary paperwork in a nearby drawer.

“Well, I can tell you didn’t mess it up by the ridiculous smile on your face.”

“Hey!” she laughed, “Mr. Hayama, aren’t you the least bit curious and excited about how things went?”

“I’m elated, can’t you tell?” Who knew Mr. Hayama could be such a smart-ass? She did. And she couldn’t say that she exactly liked this side of him especially when the little barbs were directed at her.

“Don’t you at least want to know how it happened? What I said…about you…and er…the company?” She recovered quickly, having said a great deal about Agito throughout the meeting but not so much that the big wigs would find her continual use of his name rather odd and overly affectionate. She had seen how distressed he looked when he’d asked her to go down there in the first place. So she’d made sure to let them all know just how dedicated she was to the company and most of all to him. Only one person in attendance just couldn’t seem to get the message; Mr. Sohma.
