This is a side story of Kirishima and Suoh texting Yoh and Kuruda while they were in Akihabara.

---

While looking for Asami who lost his phone in Akihabara.

Kei: Ryuuichi got lost.

Shinji: Wait, what?

Kazum: He lost his phone while we were in Akihabara and got seperated from us.

Yoh: He's not a child, I'm sure he will show up at some point.

Kei: He's not a child, but he could be childish at times. I bet he won't ask a stranger to use their phone just so they don't know he lost his.

Shinji:Hahaha, wouldn't put it past him. He likes being in control. It would affect his image.

Yoh: But why are you guys in Akihabara in the first place?

Kazumi: Business outing.

Yoh: In Akihabara?

Kazumi: ...don't ask.

Shinji: I wish I could see Ryu in the centre of Akihabara, surrounded by cosplays and ooh maid outfits...scary. Urgh. The image is too fluffy for me.

Kazumi: I found him!

Kei: Where?

Kazumi: He's sitting on a bench... feeding birds...

Yoh: you have got to be kidding me.

Shinji: Take a picture.

Kazumi: Image Sent.

Shinji: Who is this?

Yoh: I never knew he could look so...Peaceful.

Kei: Is that... a smile I see? Why is he relaxing when were running around worried and looking for him? And how did he get so far? Keep him there! Were on the way.

Yoh: Mommy is on the way. Lol

While waitin for their order at the maid cafe.

Kazumi: you guys won't believe this.

Yoh: what happened?

Shinji: Please don't tell me Ryu got lost again.

Kazumi: no, but we came to a maid cafe, peri peri maid cafe, Asami is surrounded my cute maids.

Kei: Suoh, stop texting. Did you choose what to order? Looks like Mr. Kim and Ryu are ready.

Kazumi: I'm ready...oh shit.

Kei: Is that the boy at the entrance?

Kazumi: Looks like it. But why did Mr. Kim go to see him?

Shinji: Can you guys please stop texting each other. Tell us whats happening? Which boy came?

Yoh: I want a picture.

Kei: No time for a pic, The boy that Ryu is infatuated with lately, he just walked in the cafe with his friends and daughter. And it looks like they know Mr. Kim.

Kazumi: Oh no, this is not happening. Why are they coming towards us.

Shinji: This is comical. How does Ryu's expression look?

Kei: Mixture of amusement and... confusion?

Kei: They're going to join us for lunch!

Yoh: hahaha, how awkward!

Kazumi: Ryu and the boy are acting like they don't know each other! lol

Kei: And looks like Ryu met up with the boy's daughter while he was lost.

Yoh: What? why?

Kei: Sounds like she was lost and he helped her out. But the boy didn't know.

Shinji: So both kids were lost.

Kei: She even gave him a nickname. Guess what it is.

Yoh: Blackey?

Shinji: He's not a cat Yoh. Honey Bear Monk

Yoh: Why?

Kei: ...no, its Gold-niisan.

Yoh: seriously?

Shinji: wow

Kazumi: she calls Mr. Kim Kind-ojisan

Yoh: hahhaha Gold and kind! Her naming sense is amazing.

Shinji: so what did you guys order?

Kazumi: Omurice.

Kei: Omurice.

Shinji: What about Ryu?

Kei: Omurice.

Shinji: ...the boy?

Kei: Omurice.

Yoh: omg, is everyone having omurice eith hearts drawn on them?

Kei: Unfortunately.

Yoh: hahhaha, I can't believe this! I wish I was there!

Shinji: unbelievable. I never thought Ryu would eat omurice.

Kei: Me neither. It seemed like he was going to order seafood soup before.

Kazumi: I believe he changed his mind because lf the kid. As he was watching him as he was helping his daughter choose.

Shinji: So he was jealous.

Hanging out in the megamall

Yoh: We're about to land soon.

Shinji: Welcome to Japan, lets have a drink after your meeting tonight. Meet at the usual bar?

Yoh: Call

Kazumi: Call

Kei: Call

Shinji: So are you guys still at the cafe?

Kazumi: No. Were at the megamall now.

Yoh: Don't tell me yoy guys are all shopoing together like good friends.

Kei: We split up, I stopped by the technology event, along with one of the kids friends. You would like it Shinji.

Shinji: Tell me about it later. But why are you hanging out with the kids friends?

Kazumi: Don't ask. Ryu just disapeared on us again. This time leaving a text. Now I ended up at yhe arcade playing against the other friend.

Kei: Wait what? Honestly this boss of ours. And why didn't he text me?!

Yoh: Stop being a worried mother Kei. He probably went to find his little kitten. and I didn't know you liked playing at the arcade Kazumi.

Yoh: Kazumi? Hello?

Shinji: Maybe he's busy playing.

Kazumi: Oh my, the kid just beat me for the third time. I got to go guys, got a kid to beat.

Yoh: Was Kazumi always a sore loser?

Shinji: Why is everyone acting childish today? Right Kei.

Yoh: Don't tell me he's also too busy to text back.

Shinji: Looks that way.

Yoh: We just landed. Looks like Fei's going to call Ryu now. Guess I'll see them soon.

Shinji: So its finally time for them to meet again. Its about time.

Yoh: Ya. long overdue. Fei even brought a gift for Ryu. A photography art piece we think he will greatly enjoy.

Shinji: Good choice. He can add it to that empty gallery of his.

In the car, on the way to meet Feilong.

Kei: I saw it.

Kazumi: What did you see?

Kei: Ryu and the kid were sitting together in the cafe.

Kazumi: Wait what?

"Who have you guys been texting all day?"

"Eh? Ah, I've been in contact with Yoh, making sure all nessessary plans are being made Asami-sama."

"And you, Suoh?"

"I've been contacting our men at Sion to make sure everything stays in order while we are away."

"Really? Well whatever. How's our meeting preperations going Kirishima?"

"Everything is in order, it seems they even brought back a gift for you."

"Is that so. Very well then."

Yoh: Are you telling me they were on a d-date? Ryu was? With the kid? In public?

Shinji: Please. That's not a date. They just had coffee together. Nothing more. Nothing less.

Suoh: No. it must have been a date. Ryu doesn't simply go to a coffee shop.

Yoh: Wait. Has he ever been to a coffee shop before? Just to have a coffee? I can't imagine it...

Suoh: ...I don't remember him going...

Shinji: I'm sure he has.. Maybe.

Kei: No. I don't think he has. He has no reason too. At least not since he started Sion.

Shinji: I'm speechless, exactly who is this kid?

---

At the bar, after the meeting.

"What do you guys thing is the next step Ryu will take with the boy?"

"Is that a bet, Kazumi?"

"Of course. Loser pays for all the drinks we get while you're in town Yoh. Isn't that exciting?"

"Then winner gets to choose our next bet and"

"and?"

"And make three wishes, one to each loser."

"Call, and the other two losers pay for the food and other costs incured."

"Call. What do you quite boys think?"

"I'm just speechless by these pictures Kei showed us. Today's Ryu reminds me of the past. Maybe that kid's good for him."

"He might be good for him...but he also poses a greater danger. Thats ehat I'm worried about."

"There goes our mother hen again."

"Hahahha"

"Hahaha"

"Hahahahaha, so call?

"Call"

"Cal"

"Great, then lets go in order, Shinji?"

"My bet's on him being a mistress of sorts. There is no way Ryu's going to let him get any closer and doesn't want to let him go."

"Yoh?"

"My bet's on this being a fling. The kids a new type for him. Exotic. So when he becomes normalized. He's gone.

"Kei?"

"Harsh guys. But I've seen how they interact with each other. Its like nothing I've ever seen. My bet's on them getting closer, Ryu will probably buy him an apartment in his building to see him more often."

"I could see that. My bet's on the kid. He's not the type to be owned, he will probably reject Ryu and run away if held too tightly."

"So the bet's are on! Now then. BOSS, BRING US ANOTHER ROUND!"

"Guess its time for another kind of competition. I'm just saying. But I won't be the one carrying you guys back in the morning."

"Of course not, because you will be passed out before that."

"Hahaha, no. I'll win and leave alone."

"So I hope everyone remembers, the rule is, we drink until daybreak, with the first ray of sun the race starts, the end mark are the main double doors of the hotel. Don't drop before reaching the hotel or you'll be sleeping with the birds."

"Ready!? Start!"
