Chapter 12 „ Moonlight Dance “

Ryosuke : „ So, this is the last shooting for today, right ? Posing for photos is actually quite fun. I can handle anything that doesn't involve memorizing lines. “

Photographer : „ Ryosuke! Let's slowly get started! “

Ryosuke : „ Oh, it's my turn now. Please, take care of my cell phone. Last time the phone rang when I was shooting... How embrassing. “

( A while ago, Ryosuke lost the cell phone. Even though he found it right away, he felt uncomfortable with the thought that someone unlocked his password to the phone and that was why he was upset. )

* Ring ring ring ring, ring~ *

( The sound of Ryosuke's cell phone. Ryosuke could not answer because he was shooting at the moment. I could not tell who was calling because the phone was locked. )

* Ring ring ring ring, ring ~ *

( The phone keeps ringing. I want to turn it off but it was Ryosuke's so I could not do anything about it. )

I : „ This is Ryosuke's cell phone. He cannot come to the phone right now.... “

Caller : „ ..... “

I : „ Hello, speak up if you called... “

* Click. Beep-beep-beep-beep- *

( Someone hung up. )

* A while later *

Ryosuke : „ Home, sweet home~! There is no place like home! “

Ryouta smiled a happy smile while rrolling around the living room as soon as he came back to the office.

I : „ Oh, right. Someone called you but the caller's information was blocked so I couldn't see the caller's information and when I answered, the person hung up. “

Ryosuke : „ What ? The sender information was blocked ? And the caller hung up without saying a word ? ................. “

( Ryosuke suddenly started to worry. )

Ryosuke : „ There's only one person who would do such a thing. I've changed my cell phone number. How did he get my new number ? Ugh! “

I : „ ? You think it's the guy that stole your phone a short while ago ? “

Ryosuke : „ He sure is capable of such a thing, he sure is... “

I : „ You know that person ? “

Ryousuke : „ Er... He's... Someone not important... Someone who gets on my nerves... All the time. “

I : „ Stalker ? “

Ryosuke : „ Not exactly... He is just someone I used to know, that's all. “

( He looked as if he didn't want to talk about it anymore and ran into the next room. )

I : „ Come to think of it........ “

( Come to think of it. I don't know anythink about Ryousuke's past. Except the fact that he is an orphan and has what looks like a family picture. He looks like a happy go lucky simple guy but at times he looks like a boy who grew up in a well off family. )

* A while later *

( Maybe the chat with Suzuka the fortune teller took too long. When I left Suzuka's fortune teller's place, it was OK. But when I got home, it was dark. The alley is pretty dark so I'm afraid going there at night...)

* Clomp Clomp *

( ......Oh ? )

* Tap tap *

( I heard the footsteps of someone following me. )

* Clomp Clomp *

( Is someone following me ? Someone was following me before... But it was Ryosuke... )

* Clomp Clomp *

( .........Is it Ryosuke this time also ? Can't be... Ryosuke said he's going to bed early.... Should I turn around to check who it is ? Or should I run since I'm right front of my place ? )

Man : „ Are you alone ? “

I : „ Scrrrrrrrream!! “

Man : „ Be quiet. “

I : „ Uh...... “

( Oh, it's the guy with piercing eyes and the strange aura... thug. The thought of someone following me disappeared. Did he run away ? )

Man : „ Why are you looking at me like that ? You look like you're sick and tired of being scared. They said there are many strange people around lately so shouldn't you be careful ? Running around by yourself. You're brave. “

I : „ Well...... “

Man : „ What about Ryosuke ? “

I : „ Excuse me ? “

( Does this guy know Ryosuke ? ................ He may know Ryosuke since he is an entertainer, too. )

Gin : „ Are we done here ? “

I : „ Eeeeeep!!! “

( I yelled without realizing it because of a stone faced man that appeared outta nowhere. )

Gin : „ Oh, I didn't meant to scare you. It's not safe for a lady to walk around at night. “

( At a glance, this intimidating and bulky guy looks like a thug. )

Gin : „ We'd better go back now. “

Man : „ Uh.... “

( This huy is treated like a boss by that thug... )

Man : „ Shall we call it a day then ? We'll come back again soon. I'll go to Ryosuke, next time. Take care of him until then. “

I : „ Huh ? “

( Ryosuke ?! Once I calmed down, he was long gone. )

I : „ That strange man. What is he going to do with Ryosuke ? “

( Go find him and take him... As if he is the owner of Ryosuke........ )

I : „ I'm afraid to even think about it........ It makes me stressed out. “
