I check in to my room and sense I never been to a Ryokan before I start to explore the grounds and the fish immediately catch my eye I rush over*“I never seen koi this big”*then out of the corner of my eye I catch site of a huge Sakura Tree. Its branches hovering just above the surface of the of the water. Its pink blossoms drooping and winging in the breeze and every so often some petals will fall off and gently float to the ground. I was memorized. I’ve only seen Sakura trees in comics and pictures it was much more magnificent then I ever imagined. I walked toward it as if I were in a trance. Walking over a beautiful red oriental bridge. Stepping under the tree, just staring for the longest time.
“hey are you all right, hey” I herd some one say sitting up I see a young man about my age 16 or 17 with short brown hair and the most beautiful brown eyes they seem to lour you in and then sparkling in the sun “hey are you all right” he asked again in a gentle voice like he didn’t want to hurt me *“damn I must have past out”*I thought to my self “yes I’m fine thank you for your concern” I said tipping my head down and to the side away from the man as though I could reach better, scratching the back of my head. He gave a light blush but I didn’t catch it relieved he sat down next to me. "what’s your name I think its pretty rude of you to sit down next to me and not even say who you are and by the way I’m Leana if you couldn’t tell I a foreigner" I say bluntly he looked really shock the image of what he thought I would be like was totally shattered with one sentence but surprisingly he seemed intrigued suddenly "sorry I’m Sumi, Sumi Eekitoda" he said with a embarrassed smile then I blinked at him then shot up immediately and shouted" your the owner of this estate" I through my self to the ground my knees and elbows on the ground held my head and mumbling to my self. Sumi started to come over to me with concern when I suddenly stood up and walked away toward my room with the most serious look on my face a look of embarrassment and frustration *"I made an utter fool of my self and my family this family are new potential clients my parents wont be here for three days maybe I can fix things.... but first lets retreat and calculate things properly"*I thought with my expression changed to a satisfied one.
Then out of the corner of my eye I see Sumi fiercely following me. In a panic I run faster but I couldn’t out run him. He caught up to me and with one arm he grabs my waste. Tripping over my feet he stumbles and we both fall on to the ground out of breath. Then realizing the he was on top of me I pushed him off and try to get away again but he grabbed my ankle I stopped and turned my head looking at him with the most demonically fears look “let go” I say hissing though my teeth “no just sit down and hold on” Sumi said finally getting his breath I sit down with a pout on my face and my nose in the air. He chuckled his chuckle kind of defused me and looking at him still laying on the ground were I pushed him off and holding on to my ankle “hey what’s so funny” still laughing he said “I just realized I don’t know why I chased you” I look at you in amazement then sighed getting up forgetting about him holding my ankle I tripped landed flat on my face “Were are you going now that I have you here your not getting away” he said with a seductive look in those already sexy eyes of his “let go let go let go let go” I shout getting louder in my voice you could here a hint of panic “why did you run away when you found out who I was” he asked changed expression to puppy eyes. With that I figured he was up to something and he wasn’t at all cunning.
“…Hm I guess I was rude and I apologize for it but all the same you chased me down and now are holding me against my will I don’t think I owe you an explanation” as soon as I said that he let go of my foot I got up brushed my self off and offered him a hand off the ground not saying a word he takes my hand and I help him get up. And we leave our separate ways *“ ok well I don’t seem to have a problem anymore so how about tonight I go to the hot springs and some shopping and site seeing tomorrow”* being satisfied I headed of to my room.
After Changing in to my robe I head off to the springs. I find the sign “Hot Spring” I enter the door and walk in to a open air bath and just my luck no one is taking a bath at the moment so I slip out of my robe and climb in. propping my back up against a rock I close my eyes listening to the sounds of nature and my body feeling every movement of the water feels like I’m becoming on with the water and dozing off. I don’t know how long I was there sitting in the water but when I woke up there was a older man no more then 20 sitting directly in front of me just watching me. The moment he saw my eyes open he came over and covered my mouth “Shhhh don’t scream” he said whispering in my ear. My face turns red with imbursement looking down I remember I don’t have a suit on and noticing he doesn’t either I push him away. Sinking down in to the water covering my self up the best I could then finally I could say something “ what are you doing in here” not looking at him my back turned toward the man “isn’t this the girls bath” I said now questioning my own judgment trying to remember if I had made a mistake. “if you had read the pamphlet about this, in it, it tells you that this is a unisex hot spring “he says in a most luxurious voice. I sink my self completely under water in embarrassment then try to swim toward the exit but he grabs me around my waist and completely lifts me out of the water like I was a rag doll. completely stunned by both: that he grabbed me and that he was strong an of to completely lift me out of the water with his hands *“his hands there so big and strong yet gentle…..wait why am I thing that I just want to get back to my room”*I think to my self I didn’t notice but I had closed my eyes and when I opened them he had sat me down he had his hand gently on my wrist with was above the water and the other on the bent under the water right next to my thigh and him hovering over me my eyes wide open now looking in to his eyes. “you know you will get dizzy if you put you head under water” *“ His eyes Iv seen them some were before but were….”*I scream to my self still frozen in shock. He moved closer toward my neck when he was about to touch me with his lips a familiar voice shouted in to the hot spring it was Sumi “NUSHI ONI-SAN what are you doing you know the rule about hitting on the costumers” then I relived were I say the eyes before and before anyone could say another word I ran out my hand over my mouth like I was holding back my tears. Grabbing my robe and barley being able to put it on before running back to my room. Jumping in to my futon my eyes start to tear with my own stupidity *“what happened to me why did I just sit there now there going to think I’m a horror what have I done…. I’m sorry mom… dad I screwed up every thing for you I’m so sorry”*I say to my self as I dose off to sleep.
Getting up I walked over to the mirror looking at my eyes. I smile, glad that they weren’t red and swollen. Washing my face, pining back my hair and bangs, putting on a black wig with a bit of make up along with a pair of gym shoes and jeans with a pink t-shirt, I get my back pack on and lock my room. “shopping here I come” I say to my self not noticing that I said it out loud *“Lets go get some breakfast I’m parched not having dinner last night ….and now that I think of it I was so sick after the plane ride I didn’t eat any lunch either…….I think I saw a sushi shop on my way to the Ryokan yesterday lets try that”*walking out I run in to Sumi. We both fell on the ground “hey are you ok” he asked I looked up and he was wearing a School uniform it was a light gray with a white collar and cuffs with red buttons. “yes I’m alright” I respond “hey when did you check in, I don’t recognize you” he asked *”he takes time to know the costumers wow what service…. But he doesn’t seem to recognize me”* “this morning” I answer back. “oh really I don’t remember you at all” Sumi stated*“oh god this is bad”* I tell my self “Well I have to go you better get to school bye” I say in a rush in a desperate attempted to try to escape. Sumi Grabbed my shoulder “aaaaahhh” I shout. he letting go I apologize for being rude “I’m sorry I shouted you just startled me so I didn’t mean too be rude” “no its ok but what’s your name” he asked *“ …..does he do that to all the girls he meets, like really he starting to look like his brother, what a player…. I’m exhausted”* I thought suspiciously “what are you hitting on me or something ….well what ever I don’t have time for this bye” I say walking away *“I’m good I told him to a certain extent and got away at the same time, who’s good …I’m good”* from the corner of my eye I saw him blushing and staring at me from behind *“Oh My God what a creep”* I thought “hey what’s your name?” Sumi yelled after me “what’s Yours?” I yell back giving my self time to think of a name. “ Its Sumi now tell me yours” saying as he walked up to me “its……”pausing because I still haven’t thought up of a suitable name for this disguise “its …..yuki, yes yuki” *“god what a lame name but I had to give him something or he would have thought something was suspicious”*I thought to my self “I like it” Sumi said. I was stunned but I didn’t know why. “what are you doing today” Sumi asked. “don’t you need to go to school” I ask. “no its ok” He replied with a embarrassed smile. “I’m just shopping around and……”my stomach growls I blush “and was going to get sushi for breakfast” I say obviously embarrassed. Sumi chuckled “I know this great sushi shop how about we grab some and then I will show you around” he smiled an incredibly Pure smile. “yeah why not” I said intoxicated by the smile.
I unlocked my room door and shut it behind me and immediately dropped all the bags I was caring “well that’s it for souvenirs” I said out loud. *“I had a lot of fun today I kinda wish I wasn’t in discise…. But theres nothing I can do about it now”* I thought to my self. I pull off the wig and let down my hair it was beautiful blond silky hair extremely thick and I had a lot of it. I brushed it out put on a bathing suit on went out to my bags and shuffled trough them pulling out a water proof eye mask. Put on my rob, graded a towel, the key and locked the door “that should be everything”
*“ Looks like no ones here again well it doesn’t matter if I cant see them”* I take off my robe and towel and find a nice place to sit. Relaxing listening to the sounds that the springs were making relaxing. “ Leana? Leana!” some one called “yes” I answered Lifting up my mask it was Sumi and *“thank god he’s wearing some trunks though now that I recall he was wearing them last time too”* “well I just wanted to apologize for mine and my brothers behavior please except our apologies” he said bowing his head. I smile “fine I accept your apology but only yours not your brothers he must apologize him self” I respond “thank you I will talk to my brother and see what I can do” Sumi starts to turn around “hey why don’t you do that later and come and relax you can tell him later.. Imean you are already in here” after I said that he comes and sits down across from me. Right when he was about to say something Nushi barges in and rushes over “its you the hot spring girl from yesterday” he said “this is Leana …”sumi states but not knowing my last name. “Hiro, Leana Hiro” I finish his sentence. Nushi looks at me “you mean Hiro from Hiro corp.” he asks. “yes that’s me” I say *“it could be trouble if I lie to them it would weaken the deal between our familys
