"Mai hurry up" said Naru. He was getting annoyed that Mai was taking her time. She careful ran up to him and said "Well I'm sorry it's raining and I don't want to get my shoes wet!"
"You're forgiven now lets go we're already late." he said before continuing and leaving an angry Mai behind. Lin just smiled to himself as he watched the two fight. Mai caught up to her boss and stared at his face. Naru/Kazuya had raven black hair, deep dark blue eyes and a perfect pale face. Ever since they had meet Mai has never seen Naru wear anything other then the same black clothing and she has been working for him for a little over two years and no matter how much she tried she could never get him to wear something else. Naru was also obsessed with tea. He would call her into his office for more tea at fifty times a day. Sometimes she wondered if she got paid for making tea.
The rain pounded on her umbrella as it started to rain harder. She noticed how Naru and Lin both had black umbrellas. Mai thought about what Konta might be up to. She hasn't seen her since the orphanage case over nine mouths ago. She didn't even say good bye, she just disappeared. When Mai had asked Naru about her, he would tense up and say the same thing every time. "I don't know where she is and I don't care now leave me alone." She wondered if he was hiding something from her. Like the fact that he was Oliver Davis. Yes Naru the narcissist is actually the great Oliver Davis.
They had now arrived at the office. Mai couldn't wait to get in side where it would be nice and warm and dry. She climbed the stairs after Naru and Lin. She stopped and waited but they both stood at the top of the stairs, not one of them opening the door. Mai wonder what was going on but before she could ask, Naru said "Lin did you leave the lights on?" Mai turned to Lin to see him shake his head
"No" Naru opened the door and stepped in, followed by Lin and Mai. When Mai enter she couldn't believe what she saw. As she stood next to her boss in the door way she felt her face go bright red. Konta was lying on the couch with no shirt on. (yes, she had her bra on) Tom was on top of her again with no shirt. They both turned to look at who had come in. Mai saw Konta's face go a little red. Konta put her hands on Tom's chest and helped him off of her before sitting up. Her face was almost as red as Mai's. She grabbed her shirt that lay forgotten on the floor, and put it on. Tom grabbed his shirt of the side of the couch. Awkwardly he stood there putting on his shirt.
"Would you like to explain?" Naru asked hiding his shocked expression well.
"Well you see-" Konta started
"I tripped." Tom finished. There was a long silence.
"The reason none of you had a shirt on?" Naru asked breaking the silence.
"Well it was-" Konta again started awkwardly but never finished.
"We got stuck in the rain-"
"And we didn't want to be in wet clothes-"
"So we decided to change-"
"But as we were changing-"
"I tripped and fell-"
"and that's when you walked in." Konta finished. They sat/stood there awkwardly waiting for someone to say something. Naru looked between the two before taking a deep breath. Sighing he walked past them into his office and before slamming the door he yelled. "Mai tea" The first to move was Lin who nodded to Konta and Tom before walking into his office.
"You believe us right?" asked Konta. Mai didn't know what to do, so she looked between the both of them before running into the kitchen to get Naru's tea. As she put the water in the stove Mai heard footsteps behind her. She didn't have to look around to see who it was. Konta sat up on the counter and watched Mai.
"Where have you been?" Mai asked. Konta looked down at the floor not sure how to answer, luckily Mai saved her the trouble by continuing. "Why did you leave? Couldn't you have said good-bye or at least try to keep in contact? I was worried about you. You got out of the hospital too early and them you go and disappear. Now after nine months you decide to show up out of no where. Why?"
"I had to. I didn't want to but I had to. It's complicated and I'm sorry I made you worry but if I didn't then…" her sentence trailed off as the kettle whistle. Mai poured the water and put the tea bags in. Letting them sit for a minute she threw them in the garbage and turned to Konta. "I'm just glad you're alright." Mai took the tray and walked over Lin's door. She knocked and when she heard a 'come in' she opened the door and put the tea next to him. He nodded in thanks. Mai walked out and closed the door before walking over to Naru's door. Taking a deep breath she knocked and walked in. Naru didn't even look up as she walked over and put his tea in front of him. She waited. Naru sighed and looked up at her.
"Yes?" he asked.
"A 'thank you' would be nice." Mai said. Naru just went back to the book he was reading, ignoring her completely.
"HELLO!" screamed a voice as the front door slammed opened. Mai turned around. She couldn't believe it. She knew that voice anywhere. Mai ran out of Naru's office and into the arms of her favorite person. Madoka hugged Mai back as Naru stocked out of the office.
"What do you think you're doing?" he asked. Mai turned around to see him staring at the back of the couch. She was confused but before she could ask Madoka intercepted. "Well I came here to say hello but apparently I'm not welcome." She said putting her hands on her hips. Naru turned to her.
"Well coming in here screaming and trying to break my door isn't the way to do so." He said coldly as he glared at her. She wasn't even affected by it.
"Fine I'll go and I'll take the case I brought with me." She said before turning around. Naru watched as she got to the door and as she was about to open it to leave she heard someone sneeze. Madoka turned around to see Mai looking confused. "Bless you."
"I didn't sneeze." Mai said. They both turned to Naru who looked at them before shaking his head. He nodded towards the couch. Madoka walked over and looked behind the couch. Mai moved in order to see what was going on. Konta was look terrified as she sat behind the couch staring up at Madoka. Madoka ignored that and smiled down at her offering a hand. "Bless you, though what are you doing behind the couch?" Konta looked at her hand and back up at her face before taking her hand. As she stood up she stands "I'll fell." Konta looked between Mai and Naru and Madoka before saying "Well bye!" she rushed pasted everyone and towards the door. Unfortunately as she reached the door Tom came out of nowhere.
"Hey you ready to-" he stopped at the sight of Madoka. Madoka looked completely confused, surprised and happy. "Tom?" she asked.
"Hehe hey Madoka." He said awkwardly before looking at Konta who was frozen at the door. Madoka turned to look at the girl as her eyes widened and she got the look someone would make when they win the lottery. "Konta?" she asked. Konta slowly turned around to face her. Mai saw that Konta looked a little terrified. "Yes?"
Madoka ran up to her and started to touch her everywhere as she said "Oh my god look at you! Your hair it's so long and you've gotten taller." What no one expected was what Madoka did next. She grabbed Konta's breast and said "Oh and look you've gotten boobies now!" Konta pulled Madoka off of her and covered herself up so Madoka couldn't touch her like that again. "Madoka!" Konta screamed as her face got red. Mai felt her face get red and as she looked away she noticed Naru had a little tint of pink in his cheeks. He stared at the two widen eyed not believing what he had just saw.
"Well it's true!" she said trying to remove Konta's arms from her view. "Come on don't be shy!"
"Madoka stop!" she said.
"Madoka that's enough." Naru said trying to hide his embarrassment. Sadly he was hiding it very well. "Konta already showed us enough of her chest for one day." Madoka turned to him confused. "What do you mean?"
"NOTHING!" screamed Mai, Konta and Tom at the same time. Naru shook his head before going back in his office. Lin stuck his head out of his office to see what the noise was all about. When he saw Madoka he understood and went back to work.
"Anyway where was I?" she said turning back to a terrified Konta.
"I believe you were about to tell Oliver about the case you brought for him." Tom said saving Konta from Madoka harassing her anymore.
"Oh right." She walked over to Naru's office and walked in. A few moments later she came out dragging a grumpy Naru with her. She placed him on the couch and went to knock on Lin's door. Mai went to sit down but found it hard to sit next to Naru as his grumpy mood seemed to fill the air around him. Lin walked over and sat next to Mai. "Alright, a friend of mine says she's been having a problem with ghosts lately. She says at first it was just things being moved around, writing on the walls and sightings of a young girl walking around, but as time passed people started to go missing. According to her the people gone missing always go in the same exact way. A couple would come to stay and with a day the woman would start acting strange. After about two or three days the woman disappears completely last being seen by the cliff over looking the shore. The man is found dead within the next twenty-four hours dead. All the men have had there wrists sliced. If the couple had children they would be seen running into the wood at two in the morning never to be seen again.
"She wants your help,, knowing you're the best there is. Also she is willing to pay any amount you would think is reasonable." Madoka took a deep breath before saying "She has hired others but they have either suffered the same fate or have come up with nothing. So will you take it?"
"No." Naru said. This made Madoka smile. "Did I mention the professors requested you take this case since the woman is a close friend of theirs and will not take no as an answer?"
"Who are the professors?" Mai asked confused. Madoka turned to her and said "They're Noll's parents."
"If I can't say no why did you ask if I will take the case?"
"Because asking if polite. Now I'll see you at the airport tomorrow, the plane leaves at two the next morning. Don't be late and don't forget to call everyone. I can't wait to see them all again." Madoka said standing up. She turned to Konta who was standing by Mai's desk now. "You'll be coming right? I'm sure the professors will like to see you again."
"Oh, no I can't. Sorry maybe next time." She said with a small smile.
"Konta." Everyone turned to Naru who had his head in his hands. He looked up at her with serious eyes. "If I have to go, so do you."
