Tora smiled and put more rice on his plate and filled his cup. She smiled and sighed happily- things were going almost perfect for her.

Keiji smiled as Tora handed him another plate. He ate and drank, replinishing lost nutrients and energy. "I might have to stay here a while," he though. "Everyone's so kind." Keiji rested his elbows on the table and placed his chin on his hands and closed his eyes. He handn't had that much food in a long while. It was good to sit and relax and not have to watch your back.

Ariku smiled and nodded to Tora. "Of course Onee-san."
She then took a small bite of rice and watched her older sister go to entertain the starving man.

Keiji smiled at the woman who was looking at him. He moved his plate aside and drank more of his sake. He finished and placed it down on the table.

"So, Ariku-chan, have you thought about my offer?" she smiled. "I think you're ready to become a geisha," she whispered into Ariku's ear. "Come by the okiya next time you get a chance," she smiled. She noticed Keiji's glass was empty. "Want to refill his glass?" she asked with a wink.

Ariku smiled shyly back at the man. She then heard Tora and that small smile got bigger.
"Arigato gozaimasu Onee-san, I will." she whispered back.
She moved near the man. "Hello, I am Ariku of the hinohasu okiya. What is your name?" she asked very politely.

"Thank you, Ariku-sama," he grinned. Keiji sipped his tea, the smooth taste cooling his burning throat from the sake.

"I've been well. But, busy trying to learn the shamisen. Haha, I'm more of a singer and dancer.... Than a shamisen player." she said giggling. She took a sip of tea. "How about you?"

Tora smiled. "I'm the same way," she laughed. "That's like me and art. I'd rather paint a full picture than play an instrument. I do like to sing though," she smiled.
