The eighteen year old blinked blankly ahead as she held her cellphone to her right ear. She was currently having a conversation with her aunt, one of the only two relatives she had left in this world. Well, it was actually more of a onesided conversation, really. "Are you coming home for dinner, Kairi-chan?"
"No." the brunette replied simply with a yawn.
"Oh? Have you eaten already?"
"It wasn't a proper meal if that's what you're trying to ask."
"Then why-" her aunt's tone became cross but Kairi cut her off before anymore words could be uttered.
"I don't wanna see your face. Good enough excuse for you?" she heard a gasp on the other line but without waiting for the expected scolding to hit her ear, Kairi pulled the phone away from her face and snapped it shut without so much as a goodbye. "What a troublesome old hag."
With a sigh, Kairi pocketed her cellphone and glanced around. Women that were being molested yet looking like they were asking to be molested. Men that were doing the molesting. Shady figures in the corners holding packs of things to their noses or needles to their arms while shivering from something other than the chilly evening air. This was the place. The place she'd arranged an appointment with no other than some of the most notorious yakuza members. Not that Kairi was the rebellious type to walk with the wrong crowd or anything, but, a business was a business, and they were the ones who had found and asked her to hack into a system for them. Besides, they did promise to pay her in cash.
"Hm. At least I'm legal already." Kairi commented dryly as she watched a couple that consisted of a young woman and an old man heading to the nearest love hotel. And, at least she had tied her short hair into a ponytail behind her head and was wearing a collared-shirt; though crossdressing wasn't her cup of tea it was still rather handy when it came to something like this. It would be stupid and a waste of energy if she had to physically fight someone off 'cause they mistook her for a hooker.
The eighteen year old pried her unimpressed gaze off of the noisy crowds around her at last and reached into her messenger bag for her light, apple green laptop. She pulled out and opened her laptop, holding it with one hand while the index finger of her other hand slid around the touchpad.
Suddenly, Kairi felt gazes on her and when she heard footsteps approaching, she lazily lifted her vision upward. She blinked at the men in suits with gelled hair. "Kai?"
"Feel free to call me 'Kai-sama'." the eighteen year old offered nonchalantly as if she wasn't even speaking to gangsters, her gaze sliding back down to the screen of her laptop.
One of the men made an irritated grunt and took a step forward but was stopped by a hand that clamped onto his shoulder. "You know," Kairi spoke slowly, her eyes never leaving the screen, "Sorry to burst your bubbles, but I'm not just another one of those greedy dumbasses that don't know a thing. I've already hacked into the system of the local police headquarters so if you so much as attempt to hurt me, I will let them know where your hideout is and get you busted." she said dryly but finally glanced up to the gangsters despite her usual bored expression, "I hope I'd made myself clear."
"Why you-!"
"Now," Kairi looked back down with a raised brow, wondering though never bothered to ask why it was that people always liked to say redundant things. "Why you"? Like she should feel threatened or something. She snorted with an unimpressed face as she entered a password quickly and hit the return button. She turned her laptop around to show the men the job she had done for their request. "Where's the mon-" Kairi blinked, suddenly feeling that there was someone else watching them. "... ey."
Her eyes focused ahead for a moment as the yakuza members kept themselves busy by staring at the screen of her laptop. Kairi frowned when she briefly caught sight of a figure behind the gangsters. "What are you looking at?" the eighteen year old asked out loud at the person.
"Hahh?" the armed men with her turned around with nasty expressions on their faces.M A Y B E . I ' M . A N . A N G E L
