She laughed and clapped her hands, "Popo-chan, you and Luna-chan are the most beautiful geisha here and wide! You rival all of the other women in our ranks." Iyasu giggled.

Tohru looked at Haruki and smiled, enjoying the warm safe feeling she had while in his arms. Finally, she gently pushed away and said, "I have to get back to the teahouse. Please come and join me later."

Haruki regrettably let go and nodded. "I promise; I will." Before he let her go, he quickly grabbed her and kissed her gently.

Tohru blushed and smiled as the kiss ending. She bowed a little and then blushed deeper before walking out of the garden.
'Kissed twice in the same day...What a day!' she thought happily.

Haruki watched Tohru leave blushing and smiled to himself. He looked to the sky, allowed a cool breeze to blow through his hair.
He was glad that he had left against his father's wishes to seek out Tohru. In fact, he was the best decision of his life. After a little while, he ventured out to the teahouse again.

Tora entered her garden and sighed. She walked along the path to the koe pong and sat on the bridge. Tora removed her shoes and socks and put her feet in the water. She splashed about a bit and slowly came to a stop. When the ripples had die, she leaned over and looked at her reflection. Tora turned away bitterly as a tear fell from the tip of her nose and landed in the water.

"Now then my lovely younger sisters, I would like to have a quick word with you about the tea house." Iyasu said with bright smile, although her heart felt other wise with the silence of unknown return, she smiled. "Girls, I would like to warn you about the tea house. Although, it is very exciting and thrilling because of the parties and mingling with other geisha, maiko and most of all, patrons; You must always be careful to your feelings and to those around you. It is not our place to say . . . surprising things in the tea house or any other place that we might be entertaining." She sighed heavily, "Trust me, I know from the experience. Trust your heart my dear sisters. If you feel it needs to be said, wait for the right moment and watch your wording. It may come across in a way you did not mean it to."

Popo snapped back into reality. She sat down with her onee-san and looked to her. "Onee-san...why is the Teahouse such a..a...a..." She could not figure out the right word to say and thought about it. Popo hoped Iyasu could find the words for her..

Lady Tora Tora entered her garden and sighed. She walked along the path to the koe pong and sat on the bridge. Tora removed her shoes and socks and put her feet in the water. She splashed about a bit and slowly came to a stop. When the ripples had die, she leaned over and looked at her reflection. Tora turned away bitterly as a tear fell from the tip of her nose and landed in the water. As Shagatsu entered the garden for the first time, he came upon Tora crying salty tears for all the fish to enjoy. He sat down next to her. "I think the Koi like freshwater beter than saltwater.." he said with a small smile. He too, began to cry silently. He put his arm around her waist.

Tora's heart stopped at the sound of the familliar voice. "Sh-shagatsu-san!" she said, shocked. "What are you doing here?" she asked wide-eyed. She wiped her tears and then blushed as he placed his arm around her and he too cried. "Oh, Shagatsu-san!" she cried, hugging him. She gently pulled away and looked at him with sad eyes. "What are we gunna do?" she asked, half laughing and half bursting into tears. She wiped them away and frowned.

He wiped a tear away from her pretty cheek. "You are going to live your life happily and have lots of children, or whatever your heart desires..." He looked down into the pond. "As for me.... well I may find comfort in Hara, untill she leaves me like Omny or untill something else happens." He looked over to Tora. "I will live my life untill I die. The reward in the end is the only thing that intrests me. You deserve better...." He said, wiping another tear gently from under her eye.

"Please don't say that," she frowned. Tora looked down and said quietly, "I don't think Hara will do that to you." Tora held Shagatsu's hand. She looked at their finger's intertwined. "Shagatsu... did you and Omny-chan have a fight?" She hoped she wasn't being too forward.

"We were on good terms when we last saw each other. Then she just left. There is no chance of kidnap, the Okiya is nearly impenetrable, trust me, I have tried..." He said with a small laugh, "Either way, Its over now and theres no changing." He looked down at thier hands and smiled. "This should be someone elses hands holding yours, not mine. I think you know who he is too. He wont hurt you like I do..." Shagatsu said with a half-hearted smile.

Tora cried and hugged him. "You will always have a place in my heart, Shagatsu," she said looking into his eyes. Tora placed a hand on his cheak. "It will always pain me to see you with someone else- you were my first love. But, it will pain me more to lose you forever," she added, tears comming from her eyes. "I feel like this is happening all over again, but at least Hara considered my feelings. Omny knew I was in love with you," Tora said quietly. "In a way, I'm glad Omny's gone," she confessed. "I hated to see the way she treated you! Hara is different- she'll be good for you." Tora embraced Shagatsu and clinged to him.

He sighed. "I dont know what to think anymore..." He returned Tora's warm grasp with his own.
