Keeper sits beside a round table, within a outside rest area, a guardrail lined the edge, starting from a building.
Behind the railing, an ocean view, creating a background split of ocean and a building that had a door opening.
A young woman exiting door, wearing a yellow sundress, sandals, matching sunhat with an oversized yellow bow, and of course sunglasses.
Keeper stands and takes a step forward. "Hello, Emiko. How are you feeling today?"
Smiling broadly, she walks aside the guardrail, until she was directly across from Keeper's chair. "Today is beautiful. How could I be feeling anything less than wonderful?" Waving a hand in front of her, giving a side curtsy of her head. "Oh, no, please sit back down."
Returning the smile, Keeper heeds the request. "So it is."
Head tilting in curiosity, her smile lowers a tad. "What brings you today?"
Bringing out her notepad, Keeper's face fell to one of business at hand. "Concerning your return to work, you are aware who runs that company and the entailing of who you will encounter?"
Slipping hands behind her rear, she leaned against the railing. "Yes, I do."
After awaiting for more to come forth from Emiko, "And?" Keeper asked in curious concern.
The smile of her ruby red lips broadened. "My history I sent you to disclose has finished and now it is on me to give up everything else to him, from there I will firmly follow what is needed, no nonsense."
Keeper leans back in her chair. "The entailing?"
Dropping her smile, Emiko exhales, a slight turning away of her head "I cannot be defensive to facts. Aside from an apology, accepting and respecting is all I can do. If at a loss.." Facing Keeper again. "I have support."
Keeper's face softened at the complemental answer. "Yes." She glanced down, taking note, and questioning as she did. "I entrust you will continue your objectives..?" She looked up to see her answer.
A slight nod given in confident affirmance. "Yes."
"That's good.. one last thing." Hesitation in her response, Keeper's face grew serious. "You know it's inevitable of his return."
Furrowing her brows, she turns away to face the ocean, griping the handrail. "I am not going to engage, if he wishes to become physical.. I have my ammunition." Her tone edged to a tense one.
In puzzlement, "Ammunition?"
There was a noticeable silence, as it near seemed Emiko wouldn't answer. "When I said, everything, I meant it. Everything is coming clean. Things I haven't told you and did not send for you to disclose. I know everything and owe nothing." The tensity that had edged in, was gone now and light as before.
Face of Keeper grew to one of concern. "Emiko... What do you know?"
Releasing the railing, "I know, enough." Casually turning back to face Keeper, Emiko wore a wide pearly white smile. "Thank you for your time." She replies through her teeth, then facing the door she had exited, walks back to it, hands behind her.
Distressed at the turn of events, that Emiko was not as well, as she had appeared to be. "Emiko. Emiko!" Keeper sighs, slapping her note pad shut in frustration. Propping her arm up on the table beside her, pressing mouth against her fist, looking on in worry, as the door closes behind Emiko.
