Akira sat on the side of the bed, reached out and pulled the towel off, letting it fall to the floor. He closed his eyes, took in a deep breath and opened his eyes again. He wanted to keep this woman, wanted to keep her satisfied in every way. She was beautiful, her body was a work of art.
He took her by the hand and guided her between his legs. He with both of his hands he held her by her waist, he kissed her stomach leaving two passion marks before placing three fingers inside her.
“No you don’t have to..... Akira...”
Deanna body quivered with excitement, she placed her hands on his shoulder to steady herself. Her breathing was labored, her head tilled back. She was on the verge of coming.
He stopped, “Do you want me to continue?”
“Yes.” she whispered, “Yes, don’t stop!”
Akira helped her onto the bed and continue to make love to Deanna until she fell asleep in his arms.
The next morning, they ate breakfast. They spent the better part of the day enjoying their surroundings at Peace Park. Evening came, and they made their way back to the hotel.
Tonight Deanna was determine that she was going to make love to Akira.

She drew a tub of warm water and had Akira get in to relax.
“You going to join me?”
“No, tonight is your night.” She said as she rubbed the soapy towel on his back.
“My night, what do you have planned?”
“You’ll see. Just finish bathing and come to bed.”
He looked up at her and could swear that she was smiling a wicket smile.
“You’re up to something.”
“Just don’t keep me waiting.” She replied as she left the room.
When Akira came out of the bath wrapped with a towel. Deanna was already in the bed and stripped. Just looking at her made him get hard. He sat down on the side of the bed trying to hide his rock hard, hard on with the towel.
She reached over pulling him back onto the bed. He laid there staring at the ceiling, wondering what it would be like to be deep inside of her.
Deanna could see that Akira was trying to conceal his hard on. She 73 | P a g e
reached under the towel, caressing his genitals, he closed his eyes. She sucked on his nipple and continued to caress him. He let out a low moan.
“Deanna, stop.” he whispered.
“What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” as he reached into the draw. He slid the condom on his erection.
“Do you want me to....”
“I don’t want to take that chance. Just lay close behind me and hold me.”
She nestled up close behind and ran her tongue along his spine. He gasped. She reached her hand around him and caressed him. He could feel her nipples brushing against his back and the coarse hair of her vagina rubbing on his butt. She softly moaned into his ear. And gently licked the back of his neck.
“Just think of being deep inside of me." she softly whispered.
He closed his eyes and thought of making love to her. It didn’t take him long, he was getting closer to the verge of coming. His breathing became labored. Deanna felt Akira’s body stiffen.

“De.. Deanna!” he moaned, “Deanna.”

Chapter Seven
When the first test came back, both STD and HIV was negative. Even though the doctor assured him that a second test would not be necessary because of the length of time he had been separated from the initial carrier. Akira wanted to be doubly sure and was scheduled for another test three month.
The next day Akira packed his belongings and headed back to Tokyo. He had been gone too long and according to Hakaru, he had to calm the guys down because a rival host club had said that Akira had to leave the country suddenly because the Yakuza.
That evening Akira surprised everyone by showing up at the club. When the guys saw him, they were so over come with joy. They all wanted to do was celebrate their bosses return.
Akira walked into the office and found Hakaru sitting behind the desk going over some paperwork.
Without looking up from his work, he shouted, “If it’s not an emergency, get back to work!”
“Maybe I should come back when you’re not busy.”
76 | P a g e
Hakaru looked up to see Akira standing there, all smiles.
Hakaru gave Akira a brotherly hug, “I’m happy that you are back. Why didn’t you tell you were coming. I would have hired a car.”
“There was no need. I didn’t mind taking the train.”
“So everything’s alright?” Hakaru asked.
“Everything OK.” he replied without going into details.
“Great. Does Deanna know that your back?”
“No, I want to get some things straighten out first before I call her.”
Hakaru cleared his throat, “Just, so you will know, Coco is still in town.
She came by the other day looking for you.”
“I know, she’s been calling and leaving messages.
“If she comes by or calls, don’t tell her that I’m back. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
Akira went to his apartment and was greeted by the doorman. Once he was inside, he watered the plant and went through his mail. It 77 | P a g e
was good to be home. He called Deanna, told her that he was back and about the good news.
“That great news. You don’t have to worry anymore.”
He knew where she was heading, so he stopped her.
“Yes, but I’m having going to be re-tested again in three months.”
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
“Deanne, please don’t walk out on me. Just wait. I promise that after the test come back, we’ll be together.”
“I’ve waited this long. I just want to be with you. I don’t care what the results maybe.”
He smiled, “I had a feeling you would say that.”
Three Months Later
The train ride from Gotemba seemed to take forever. All he wanted to do was to get back to Tokyo before it rained. He sat back and tried to rest when his phone rang. It was Coco calling and asked if he would come see her. At first he didn’t want to go, because it was going to rain.
78 | P a g e
But then decided that he would go. After all, he was the only friend she had left. Most of Coco’s party friends didn’t want to be seen with her when they found out she was positive.
When he got there, Coco was setting up in bed. She had the nurse tie a pink ribbon in her hair and put on a pink gown that her mother brought for her.
“You’re all dressed up today. You must be feeling better.”
Coco smiled, “I just wanted to look my best. She then turned and looked out the window. “ I think we’re going to get rain. I remember how you didn’t like the rain. Saying it was bad for business.”
Akira looked out of the window and smiled a little. She remembered.
“They say that it will be later this evening.” Hoping that the weather would not stop women from coming out.
“Don’t worry, it won’t stop women from coming to the lounge.” She laughed.
He turned and smiled at her, “You know me too well.”
“Akira, thanks for coming to see me. I know that I was wrong. I really did some fucked up shit to hurt you. And the end I only hurt myself. I’m 79 | P a g e
sorry, can you ever find it in your heart to forget me?”
“Yes, I have already forgiven you. You were just young and spoiled.”
She giggled, “Yeah, I thought I could do anything. I was untouchable.
Look at me now.”
Coco turned her attention towards the window and saw that it had started to rain.
“It’s starting to rain now. I always liked it when it rained. You know why?” she asked.
He looked at her, she looked as though she was about to fall asleep.
“No, why?” he
asked.
“Because I could cry and no one would ever know.”
She yawned, “I think I’m going to take a nap now. So you don’t have to stay. In fact, you don’t have to come any more. Thank you for all you’ve done for me. Go now.”
Akira kissed her on the forehead, “I’ll see you later.”
80 | P a g e
Coco laughed, “It will be much later.”
Akira walked out of the hospital and flagged down a taxi to go to the lounge. Like always the traffic was crazy, and with the rain, it made it even worst.
The taxi pulled in front of the lounge, he paid his fare and got out. It was still early, most of the guys were still getting ready for the night.
Akira found Hakaru in the office giving the once over two new guys that was hired. He had just sat down when his cell phone ranged. When he answered, it was Coco’s parent’s calling to tell him know that she had passed away.
He hung up the cell phone and sat there in shock. Dead? Coco was dead? She seemed OK, a little tired when he left. But, she seemed just OK. And now she’s gone. He let out a deep sigh.
He must have been immersed in thought because he didn’t hear Hakaru talking to him, “Hey, are you OK? Akira what’s going on?”
Hakaru leaned forward and snapped his finger to get Akira’s attention.
“I’m OK. The call was about Coco.” he replied slowly, “she just died.”
81 | P a g e
“What! Wow.”
“I just left the hospital from seeing her. And now that I think about it. She must have known that she was going to die.”
“What do you mean?” Hakaru asked, lighting a cigarette only to have Akira take it from him. Akira took a long pull on it. ‘This must have certainly shook Akira,’ Hakaru thought, ‘Akira hadn’t smoked in three years!’
“I told her that I would see her later. She said, much later. And that I didn’t need to visit anymore.’ I didn’t realize what she was talking about.
I should have stayed.”
“There was nothing you could have done.”
“I know. I just can’t believe she’s gone.”
Akira got up and looked at the cigarette wondering how it got into his hand.
“I need to go see Deanna. Do you need to go over anything with me?”
Akira asked as he put the cigarette out.
Hakaru could see that Akira was troubled over Coco’s death. He patted Akira on the back as he walked out of the office.
82 | P a g e
“Do worry everything is under control. You just get yourself together.
Tell Deanna hello for me.”

Chapter 8
“Do you think she’ll like it?” Akira asked while looking in his mirror, fidgeted with his hair.
“Yes, she’ll love it.” Hakaru answered in a huff, “how many times are you going to ask?”
Akira turned and looked at Hakaru, “As many times as I want. Well at least until I’ve convinced myself that she will like it.” wiping away the stray hairs from Akira’s white Hugo Boss suit. He then fixed the lilac tie and pocket hanky.
Hakaru looked at Akira and laughed, “You got it bad. Why don’t you just calm down, everything is going to be alright.”
Akira smiled a weak smile in return. Hakaru was right, he needed to calm down. He promised Deanna that he would stop male hosting and get into a more respectable profession. So he leased the place next door and opened a night club. When he told her, she was pleased with the trade off.
Although he still was part owner the lounge, he left Hakaru to run the place.
Just then there was a knock on the office door. Akira gave himself the once over before he answered.
84 | P a g e
“Come in.”
When the door opened, Deanna walked in wearing an all white leather strapless dress with lilac colored strappy heels. She wore her hair twisted at the back of her hair and held in place with two lilac colored sticks.
He smiled and gave her a kiss on the cheek, “ You made it. And you look stunning, Is that a Donna Karin?”
Deanna smiled and nodded her head, still amazed her how well he knew his designers.
“I’m ready for my surprise.”
Akira gave her a loving kiss, “Ok, let’s go.” as he opened the office door for her. Before they left the lounge, Akira blind folded Deanna.
“I hope this is not going to be something scary? Or give me something nasty to eat?”
“No, I would never do anything like that to you. Besides, if I did, I know that you would pay me back in deuces.” he laughed as he guided her through the lounge and out the front door.
Akira took a deep breath and removed the blind fold, “Surprise! I hope 85 | P a g e
you like it.”
Parked by the curb was a white limo waiting for them. The driver opened the door and waited for them to get in.
“What did you do? What is all this?” she holding Akira’s arm tightly.
“It’s a small part of the surprise.” he smiled, as they got into a white limo.
“Akira, where are we going?”
“Some place special.” he said with a smile.
“You know how I feel about surprises. You at least can give me a hint.”
she pleaded.
He thought about it for a moment. Seeing the excitement in her eyes, he was just about to tell her then changed his mind.
“I can’t tell you. You’ll have to wait.”
Deanna folded her arms across her chest and pouted. Akira smiled and kissed her on the lips.
Deanna looked around the limo and saw that Akira didn’t spare any expense. He had it stocked with wine a small cheese and fruit 86 | P a g e
platter, blanket and soft music.
“Would you like a glass of wine? Some cheese and fruit?”
Deanna smiled, “Let’s start with wine and have the fruit after we use the blanket.” She winked an eye.
“The blanket is to keep you warm because of the A/C.”
“What? Wouldn’t you like to use it for something else?”
“No, not tonight.” he responded as he opened the bottle of wine.
He was hoping that she wouldn’t question him.
“Why not?” Pushing the issue.
“It’s just something from the past that I don’t want to remember.”
Sensing that whatever happened must have been pretty bad. She didn’t want to mess up the evening, by stirring up old memories.
“I’m sorry baby. I didn’t mean to make you sad.”
He smiled and poured her a glass of wine. He wasn’t upset with her. One day he would tell her about the limo ride, Coco, and her friends. How one of the friends O.D. and Coco had the body dumped by some vacate warehouse. She had no remorse about it and dared the other friend to 87 | P a g e
every say anything. The privileges of being a Yukuza's daughter.
After a couple of glasses, Deanna had hoped that Akira had forgotten and tell her what the surprise was.
He laughed, “I know what you’re trying to do, and it won’t work. My tolerance to alcohol is high. And I’m still not going to tell you.”
Deanna frowned
“Don’t be like that, smile.” he continued to laugh, “you look like a little girl that lost her puppy.”
He kissed her, pushing his tongue between her lips. He could taste the wine in her mouth. He stopped not wanting the passion to led to something else.
“Yeah right, this better be good.” as she snuggled up next to him and let out a little yawn, “I’m sorry, I couldn’t sleep from all the suspense last night.”
“I couldn’t either. We have some ways to go. Why don’t you take a nap.”
Akira put the wine and the glasses away and took the blanket to cover her shoulders, “ I don’t want you to catch a cold.”
“You’re so thoughtful.” Deanna smiled.
88 | P a g e
He didn’t say anythin
g. Pulling her closer, he just smiled.
The limo got on the Tomei Expressway and drove towards Gotemba.
Two hours later, the limo pulled up in front of the hotel where they first stayed.
“Wake up, we’re here.” he whispered in her ear.
Deanna sat up and looked around, “Oh, it’s the hotel we stayed at before.”
“I remember how much you liked it up here. So I thought we would come back.”
She smiled. Then suddenly, she was frowning, “I didn’t pack a bag. You didn’t say to pack a bag.”
“You don’t need a bag, I got it covered.” he said with a wink.
Deanna looked at him and nudged him with her elbow, “You nasty boy.”
“What? I wasn’t suggesting anything like that. I was just saying that I brought some things for you.”
“Sure. I can only image what you brought.”
89 | P a g e
The driver opened the door, Akira got out and helped Deanna out.
“Come, we have dinner reservations.”
They walked in and was promptly seated at a table where you could see the sunset on Mount Fuji in the distance.
They order their meal while looking at sunset on Mount Fuji in the distance.
“It’s such a wonderful view. I would love to have a vacation home up here.” Deanna sighed.
“Yes, it is a nice place for one, if you don’t mind the tourist.”
“I wouldn’t mind. I’d have a little place like your friend Mr. Kichida.”
Akira smiled because he liked it too, “You like Kichida San place?”
Deanna had her eyes closed as if reliving her time there, “Yes, I love the flowers and the Koi pond.” she sighed, “everything about it.”
He was pleased with what he heard and was about to say something when he saw the food coming.
90 | P a g e
“Foods here.” he was hungry. He hadn’t eaten since yesterday.
After they had eaten, Akira ordered a slice of Strawberry Short Cake for them to share.
He then made up an excuse of needing to go to the men’s room. Once he was out of sight, he handed the waiter a box. Akira took a deep breath and prayed that he would get the answer he so desperately wanted.
