Lucky Suki 4
“Wow!!!” the red headed ‘manager’ gasped after entering the room where Natsuki was brought after fainting, “I can’t believe that woman will be using this room! This is already the size of my house along with three more neighbors’ houses put together!” she exclaimed, her green orbs shining
Aoi smiled at the very enthusiastic woman. She was following Nao as per instruction of Kanzaki Reito. Not that the ‘Gambler Kami’ does not trust the red head but he just don’t want the woman to get lost in her way. “This is Shizuru-ojou-sama’s ante-room. Usually her friends that visit her are the one who occupies this room as there’s an adjacent door connecting both this room and ojou-sama’s room.” Aoi explained causing the red headed woman to turn around and returned the smile given to her
“That Natsuki is one lucky bastard!” the irony of her sentence caused her to smirk and shake her head, “It must feel nice to lie on that bed.” Nao said pointing on the well made, and soft looking bed where the blue haired woman was lying.
“Yes you are right.” Aoi said, “How do you want me to address you?” Aoi asked
Nao smiled after returning her focus on the brown haired woman, “Nao is fine. You’re the one Natsuki-chan will be replacing right?”
Aoi nodded, “Yes. I am to get married in two weeks but I am glad Natsuki-chan…”she stopped talking when she realized what she called the blue haired woman, “You think it is alright for me to call her Natsuki-chan?”
Brown eyes widened when the red headed woman started laughing, “It is okay for you to call her Natsuki-chan so long as she is asleep. When she’s up, you better drop the ‘chan’ or suffer the consequence!” Nao said
“Consequence?”
“Yes…I’m not going to say what but I tell you, you wouldn’t like it and your fiancée may not recognize…”
She was interrupted by Aoi’s palms in front of her face, “Okay-okay-okay, I get what you mean.”
Nao snickered and then returned her focus on the sleeping blue haired woman, “Tsk, tsk, tsk, I can’t believe that Natsuki will faint on her first day as Fujino-san’s girl Friday.” She said shaking her head in disbelief
Aoi snickered, “I myself can’t believe that Shizuru-san would do such a thing! Tease anyone to the point of fainting? She’s too reserved to act like that!” Aoi said in disbelief herself
Nao smiled, “I guess both our ‘bosses’ acted quite differently for the first time.” The red head said
“You mean Natsuki doesn’t faint like that?” Aoi asked with wide eyes
“Faint? She makes anyone who comes at her faint! That woman is our neighborhood’s official lady-bouncer!” Nao said
“Really?” Aoi smiled, “And Shizuru-san is always the proper lady! She never teased anyone before ever!” she said in mirth
“And never teased anyone with sexual innuendos…she was too much a ‘lady’ for that!”
The two women turned their head to see Kanzaki Reito approaching
“Shizuru insisted that this room be given to her new Girl-Friday and that you Aoi shall still be occupying your old room.” Reito said smiling to the two women
“Arigato Kanzaki-san…” Aoi said making a bow and was stopped by two strong hands,
“Don’t Aoi, you know very well that Shizuru has treated you as her younger sister already, and that sooner you’ll be marrying our cousin Harada so you’ll be family. There’s no need for you to be so formal around me or anyone of us.” Reito said
“Wait!” Nao interrupted, “I thought Chie-chan is Shizuru’s friend?” she added
“She is. One of her best friends actually, but she is also our first cousin on our mother’s side.” Reito explained with a smile then looked at Aoi, “Aoi-chan?”
“Thank you.” Aoi said, “But I’m supposed to live with Chie after our wed…”
“Heh!” Reito raised his hand and started scratching his head, “Chie asked me if she could camp here after your wedding.”
Nao and Reito could see the flustered and wondering face of Aoi
“It seems that Chie-chan was given a job here and wanted to save some money so instead of renting an apartment or living out in a hotel, she surmised that living here will be the best option.” Reito explained, “I think she was given the opportunity to direct her own movie?”
Nao’s eyes widened, “Chie-san is going to direct her new movie? Who’s her leading lady?!” Nao asked enthusiastically
Reito laughed at Nao’s expression while Aoi blushed, “I think she’ll be partnered with Suguira Midori.” Aoi replied
Nao frowned, “That red head woman? She’s a drunkard and she’s not good for Chie-chan!” the red head added, “She don’t even know how to act! All she does is look cute on camera and that’s it!!!”
The two other people in the room laughed, “Well don’t let Midori-san hear you say that or Kami…this place will turn to hell.” Reito said
Nao scoffed and crossed her arms on her chest, “I will say what I want to say. Harada Chie should be partnered with the likes of Nicole Kidman or Sandra Bullock! Not that Suguira Midori!” Nao said insistently causing the other two to laugh harder
“Ahrm!” the occupants of the room turned their heads at the tall raven haired woman who entered the room, “I am very honored that you think that I deserve the likes of Nicole and Sandra, but I think Hollywood hasn’t gotten wind of a legend that goes by the name of Harada Chie yet!” Chie said grinning then standing in front of Nao and beside Aoi. “And since you look to me that high, and since you’re Natsuki-chan’s manager…” Chie grinned, “Why don’t I offer you a special thanks by inviting you to our Movie set when it starts next month?”
Nao’s eyes widened more, “You…you mean that? You’re not just making fun of me?” Nao asked
Chie shook her head no, “I’m pretty sure of it. In fact I’m so impressed by the way you see through Midori-chan’s acting, I decided to let you talk to her about it!” Chie said then she looked at Reito whose eyes are now as wide as saucers.
“You…you want me to talk to Suguira about her poor acting?” Nao asked and Chie answered by nodding her head, “I’ll do it! I’ll do it for free…I just got to tell that woman how lame her acting is!” Nao said enthusiastically
“Just don’t let Sagisawa Yohko hear you berate the woman. That’s our team’s medical officer and you don’t want to know what Yohko can do to you if you let Suguira cry.” Chie warned
The red head frowned, “Hah! As if she could scare me! If that medical officer is the boyfriend of that Suguira, he must be blind because his girlfriend is not even that gorgeous, a drunkard and a lame actress!” Nao chanted
Chie shook her head, “It seems you know too much about Midori-chan, am I sensing something fishy here?”
Nao’s eyes widened, “Of course not!” she said then she started smelling herself, “Hah! I took a bath before coming here…you almost got me there Chie-chan!” Nao said slapping Chie’s arm repeatedly
Chie grinned while Aoi and Reito tried hard to hide their laughter, “Yeah…I thought I got you!” Can’t wait for this woman to come face to face with Midori…it seems both has the same eruptive characters
Then there was silence
Aoi then looked at her fiancée, “I thought you’re with Shizuru-san to discuss something?” she asked
Chie shrugged her shoulders, “Haruka arrived with Yukino.” Chie shook her head, “News really travels fast around the neighborhood.” She explained
“Oh…so you decided to leave Shizuru with her?” Reito asked
Chie looked at Reito, “I’m not going to be there and hear her rant out as if she is a megalomaniac woman trying to take over the world!” Chie said
Reito started laughing, “Okay…I get it, I get it!” he said before turning around, “…then I think I should get to my sister’s aid then?”
The tall woman shrugged her shoulders, “Tokiha-san is already there with Mikoto.”
“Bless you Tokiha-chan!” Reito blurted out, “I just came in to check on my sister’s new aide, as per instruction mind you and since I could breathe now that I know she’s well and sleeping, I should leave all of you women to your biddings as I’m to head to Fumi-chan’s for dinner…”
Chie grinned, “I assume that you won’t be back for today then?”
The handsome man smiled then looked at Nao, “Anyway Yuuki-san?” Nao nodded her head, “Please stay for dinner and the night, I want to talk to you about Natsuki-chan’s background and for you to read her contract with us. You’re the manager right? She needs to sign the contract to make all of this legal.”
Nao’s breathe hitched fuck! Natsuki don’t know how to write her own name…they’ll discover her this early! I can lie but her illiterateness can’t! Nao thought
“Is there a problem Yuuki-san?” Reito asked
“No…no problem.” Nao said smiling nervously at Reito, “I’ll prime her once she wakes up.”
“Good.” Reito finally turned his back on the ladies and left the room
Aoi tap Nao’s back, “I’ll go see if Shizuru-san needs something so I’ll leave you alone?”
“What? But that’s Natsuki’s job now…”
“Yes I know but Natsuki is still sleeping and it won’t matter if I do this sometimes.” Aoi said smiling at the red head
“Oi…shouldn’t I be jealous that you still want to aide Shizuru-chan despite you getting married to me and despite Shizuru finding her new girl Friday already?” Chie interrupted
“Chie!” Aoi said in a chastising tone, “If you’re joking then it’s not funny!”
Chie pouted like a very cute puppy at Aoi
“You don’t look cute Chie-chan, you look like a Doberman trying to look like a poodle.” Nao said grinning earning a glare from the tall woman
“And I thought I’m bringing Nao san to my movie set…”
“You look adorable Chie-chan! No one can resist that charm!” Nao suddenly said which caused one Aoi to laugh hard in her fiancé’s expense
“OKAY!” Chie said a bit loud before turning around and walked out of the room, dragging with her Aoi.

The blonde haired woman who is as tall as Shizuru was pacing to and fro in front of Shizuru who was sitting at her brother’s presidential chair, she stopped and looked at the chestnut haired woman, “What gotten into your head you have to jump and choose a woman without even sensitizing her?!” The blonde woman asked loudly
“Ara…”
“Haruka-chan…you might mean scrutinizing her,” the smaller brown haired woman beside the taller one said correcting the blonde one
“Yukino, how many times do I have to tell you that you don’t have to repeat every word I say!” Haruka said irritated to the girl beside her but her eyes were focused on the woman in front
Yukino sighed before shaking her head and shrugging her shoulders
“Haruka-chan is too feisty today!” Shizuru said smiling, “It’s not as if I don’t do such thing before.” She even added
“Ah…Shizuru-chan, you don’t actually.” Yukino answered for Haruka
“See?” Haruka said making a ‘told you so’ look
The two taller women eyed each other as if they were sizing each other up
“A…can you two stop that staring contest? That’s not going to solve any problem.” Mai Tokiha who was at the room by Yukino’s request said and try to interfere between the two friends
Shizuru looked at the fiery haired woman, “What is the problem? I don’t see any if you asked me.” The Fujino heiress said
“Shizuru-chan…” Mai
“You don’t see any problem? You choose to have a fandom woman to be your girl-Friday…”
“Random Haruka-chan!”
“Yukino!” Haruka glared at the smaller woman beside her who on the other hand looked at Mikoto who was grinning at her, “To continue, you chose a random woman to be your loyal servant without even knowing the woman’s back ground! This choosing thing should not be done on a whim! This should be well thought off and well planned!”
“What in my explanation did you not understand? Nii-chan planned it all out, he studied the back ground and all I have to do is choose! So what in those sentences did you not get?”
“EVERYTHING!” Haruka shouted
Silence
“Okay stop…” Mai said calmly, “Perhaps we could discuss this thing civilly and calmly. We are all friends here and shouting at each other is not good.” She added
“I’m not the one shouting.” Shizuru said calmly before taking her cup of tea and sipped from it
“I’M SHOUTING BECAUSE YOU”RE INFURIATING!!!” Haruka
“Haruka-chan, I think Mai-chan is right when she said we all could discuss this calmly.” Yukino said
“Yukino…” Shizuru said after replacing her cup on the table, “There really is nothing to discuss.”
Mai and Yukino both looked at the chestnut haired woman
“I already made my choice. Natsuki will work for me whether you like it or not. I’m not going to let anyone of you to boss me around especially on matters that concern me and only me.” Shizuru explained
“That’s a bit harsh nee-chan!” Mikoto interrupted, “I think I understand Haruka-chan, Mai-chan and Yukino-chan’s point, they just wanted to make sure that you got the best aide and that they are only ensuring your safety.” The smallest in the room said
Shizuru smiled at her sister, “I know…but nii-chan had already assured of that.”
“You choose her already.” Mikoto said
“Yes…but aren’t all those women already got a background check and this morning’s was just to interview them and make sure that they know what they were getting themselves into?” Shizuru cleared
Haruka frowned while Mai and Yukino nodded their heads in understanding
“So the women were screened already before today?”Yukino asked which was answered by a nod. The spiked haired Kikukawa looked at her blonde friend, “So there really is no problem Haruka-chan, it seemed Reito-kun had already screened all the women and that the interview was just the final stage for hiring.”
Silence
“I still want to meet that Kuga Natsuki.” Haruka frowned, “The surname Kuga also sound family to me.” The blonde said now calmly
“Familiar…”
Haruka glared at Yukino who blushed and just looked down at the floor, “So where is this Kuga?”
“At Shizuru’s ante-room, sleeping since someone here decided to flirt with the poor woman causing the new ‘girl Friday’ to faint.”
Everyone’s eyes focused on the opened door where Chie and Aoi were standing
“She’s soundly sleeping at her room Shizuru-sama, we left Nao there with her.”
Shizuru smiled at Aoi, “How many times do I have to tell you drop the ‘sama’ already? You’re not my girl Friday anymore and you’ll be my cousin-in-law soon.”
Aoi blushed and decided to focus her attention at the woman beside her
“And who is this Nao?” Haruka asked
“Would you believe me if I tell you that Nao is actually Natsuki’s manager?” Chie said. The two already walked in the office and both sat the couch beside Mikoto
“Manager?” Yukino asked in bewilderment, “So girl Fridays nowadays needs managers already?” she frowned, “Or was that Nao from an agency and she was the one who finds that Natsuki for Shizuru?”
Chie shook her head, “From the way I see the two interact, they might be good friends like us or…”
“Or way more than friends like you and Aoi?” Mai asked
The sudden sentiment caused the chestnut haired woman’s face to darken, “And you just left my Natsuki with that woman?” she asked seriously
Everyone eyed each other except Haruka who has no idea what was happening to her chestnut haired friend. The blonde turned around, “I need to talk to this Nao and see that Natsuki woman for myself!”
Shizuru suddenly smile at Haruka’s idea, “I think that’s the best thing to do, maybe I could lead you to her room?” Shizuru’s smile widened when Haruka nodded
“Wait we just got in!” Chie said loudly to the two retreating women
Silence as the two disappeared from their sight
“Do I smell some jealousy there?” Mai asked Chie
“You mean my nee-chan jealous at that Nao because she’s closer to Natsuki?” Mikoto asked
Chie and Mai nodded their heads, “And what’s with Shizuru calling Natsuki hers?” Chie added
Silence as the five women started thinking scenarios in their heads
“It’s the first time I see Shizuru-chan like that…possessive…”Yukino whispered
Mikoto frowned, “I don’t think nee-chan will go for that Natsuki!” she said
“Why is that?” Mai
“Because nee-chan has been in love with that greasy, dirty woman for long. We have been going to where we saw her first thinking that she might have the chance to see the greasy woman again!” Mikoto explained, “Perhaps she’s just fond of her because like that greasy woman, Natsuki has blue hair too!”
Silence
“And how many humans, especially women have blue hair on earth Mikoto?” Chie asked
“Yeah…” Yukino agreed, “You mean Chie that woman and Natsuki might be one and the same?” she asked, “…and to answer your question, Haruka’s aunt’s friend has blue hair though she disappeared a long time ago after falling in love with a foreigner, so there are two!”
Chie shook her head, “Okay…two, that’s still a very small percentage. On the other topic, yes I got this weird feeling that they are one and the same but we still need to prove it.”
“How?” Mai asked
Chie grinned and looked at Aoi, “I invited Nao to my film set next month and I’m sure I’ve gotten her trust, plus Aoi here had befriended her already so it would be easier for us to dig up something about Natsuki.” She offered
“Oi! We’re not yet married and you’re already using me on things like this?” Aoi said indignantly
The tall raven haired woman hugged her fiancée, “Aoi-chan, out of the two of us who do you think will Nao regards as her equal? To whom do you think she will open up more?”
Aoi frowned, “I still feel used…”
“I just bought the dil…hmfff…” Chie’s tirade was halted by Aoi’s hand over her mouth
“Chie!” the brunette shouted
Yukino and Mai who got what Chie was about to say blushed
“Oi…why are you blushing Mai? Yukino?” Mikoto asked
Mai looked at Mikoto, “Don’t ask!”
“Mai!!!” Mikoto whined
“Ask and you shall have no ramen!”
“Hah! I’m sure Mikoto will choose to have that dil…”
“HARADA!!!” Aoi jumped over Chie who once again puts her hand over Chie’s mouth
“WHAT’S A DIL?!!!” Mikoto yelled
“Mikoto!” Mai pulled the younger woman to her, “It’s time for your bath!” Mai said
“But Mai I just took a bath this morning…”
“And it’s already late in the afternoon.” Mai said walking out of the office dragging the young Minagi along
“Oh…that’s a nice way to use a dil…”
“CHIE! Another world and you won’t be able to use that!!!”
“WHAT?”
“I think I better see what Haruka and Shizuru are doing…”Yukino said excusing herself
“Yeah please do…and don’t worry Aoi will pound Nao for information!” Chie assured her
Yukino nodded her head, “Arigato.” She said and then she stepped out of the room but before she finally leave, “I do believe that Aoi-chan will be using ‘it’ more on you Chie-chan.” She said smiling innocently
Aoi’s blush intensified, “Yukino- chan…”
“Jaa ne!” Yukino bowed before running away from the room
Silence
“Aoi-chan…” Chie whispered at the woman above her, “We’re alone…and it will be a dream come true to ‘do’ it here…you know…”
That earned Chie a slap on her arm, “You’re incorrigible Chie!” Aoi chastised the taller woman but she squealed when Chie’s finger suddenly entered her center, “CHIE!”
The brown haired woman’s resistance was replaced by moans as the taller woman had her way with her fiancée, “I know you’ll like it…”
“God Chie…you really have fast hands…”
“And better finger!”

“Kuga wake up!” Nao pushed the sleeping woman hard from her bed
Natsuki groaned but opened her eyes when she felt the push from Nao, "Gah! What is it now Nao?” she grumbled
“We have a major problem!”
At the mention of the word problem, Natsuki’s sleep lade eyes opened wide, “What problem?”
“Kanzaki wants you to sign a contract with them.” Nao said
“So? What’s the problem with that?”
“What’s the problem with that? You don’t know how to write that’s the problem! Baka!” Nao said poking a finger on Natsuki’s head
“Damn! Do that again Nao and I’m going to break that finger of yours!” Natsuki shouted after pushing Nao’s finger away from her head, “I did get out of it with Takeda!”
“Idiot! Takeda knows who you are, but Kanzaki don’t! So do you want them to know who you really are and lose all of these?’ she asked motioning for the entire room
That ‘problem’ dawned on Natsuki and she started to rattle, “Shit-shit-shit-shit!” Natsuki said bolting up from the bed, “What the hell will I do?”
Silence
This was broken by footsteps heading their way,
“Shit…” Nao said we have to find a way for them to let you just put a thumb mark on the contract without them realizing who you really are!”
“Yeah so what?” Natsuki asked
Silence
“Okay…give me your right pointing finger and right ring finger…”
The look on Nao’s face brought fear in Natsuki, “I don’t like the look you’re giving me Nao…”
“Do you trust me?” Nao asked
“No I don’t.”
“Natsuki?”
“Okay…with this yeah I trust you!”
“So give me!”
“Nao…” Natsuki offered the red head the fingers she asked
The red head grinned at the blue haired woman…forgive me Natsuki but you’ll thank me later…
