Chapter 17
"Ah Sasuke, how are you?"
"Fine thank you sir" he replied.
"What brings you two here?" Dr Nara asked as his gaze trailed from Sakiko to Sasuke.
"We came to say thank you for that day" Sasuke decided to speak after some seconds of silence.
"For what? I didn't do anything except check on Sakiko and prescribed drugs and ample amount of rest for her."
"For proving them wrong, especially Miss Kaneki" Sakiko explained, "She has always been looking for an opportunity to just... Do whatever she wants."
"No, I was just doing my job" he smiled at them.
"Anyways thank you sir, we would be on our way now. I'm sure you have tons of things to do, so we don't want to be a bother."
"Well you are right Sasuke, you can go enjoy your break" they turned to leave, he seemed to have recalled something, "Wait."
They stopped in their tracks, "Yes Dr.?" not so sure what the problem was this time.
"Umm, I need to talk to you about what they are saying, you know."
"Dr Nara if we live life trying to checkmate what people say, I'm afraid to say, we won't go far in life. I live my life far
"Well then, I guess you got that right. Since you already know, it's fine" he flashed a smile again.
"So I guess there is nothing to talk about then" She replied cutely.
"All right before you go, take this money to buy lunch. My treat, would have loved to sit and continue discussing but I have lot's of work to do" he said pulling a note from his wallet and handing it over to them.
They hesitated for a while, looking at each other, before they accepted it and thank him.
"Thank you sir. We would take hour leave now" with that they waved him goodbye.

Later, the Reverend Father sent for Sakiko and Sasuke to his office.
"I do not know, but if it is okay with you Sakiko; would you like to stay with us? I am doing this for Sasuke, he also wanted me to ask you."
"Really Father? Like stay for some time?" She seemed to be in thoughts.
"Yes" Sasuke answered her.
"I would Father. But first I would need my parents permission for that" she explained.
"I have called your parents and they agreed, your mum said so long as it makes you happy, then she agrees but it is up to you. And she has packed your things for you" Father Tanaka said.
"Ohh, okay sir."
"I am glad you agreed."
"Thank you for inviting me Sasuke" he holds her hand and she smiled shyly.
"Thank you Reverend Father."
"It's all good, now you two may get back to cla.s.s. At the close of school, my driver would take you home to pack your things, then he would take you home from there."
"All right Father, thank you sir, we would take our leave now sir" she bowed her head to greet him.
"No worries."
Sasuke did the same, after whochrthey left his office.

The driver pulled at her drive way and they highlight from the car.
"Thanks."
"Thank you, we'll be back" Sasuke said as they closed the door and left.
No one was in except the Gardner, Driver, the house helps.
"Good afternoon everyone" she greeted the driver and the gardner.
She entered the house and met the maids.
"Good afternoon young miss" they greeted.
"Good afternoon, where is dad, mum, Itachi and Itsumi?"
"They went to pick young master and miss" one of the maids replied her.
"All right. Meet my friend Sasuke. I would be staying over at his place for a week. Sasuke meet Rika and Riko".
"Good afternoon, nice meeting you"
"Good afternoon Sasuke" they both greeted as they blushed.
