Remember Me, Baby.
This is no good

After believing Keiko was sitting safely in the back seat, Andrew immediately opened the front door and threw his buttocks next to Clark.

“Come, go!’ his orders with a serious face.

Clark wanted to ask a lot of questions, but it didn't seem like the time was right. He immediately drove the car to the main road. His instincts said that they should get out of that route as soon as possible.

In fact, seeing Andrew running around the streets pulling Sakamato Keiko's hand was the last thing he could imagine. He thought his best friend was confused on the side of the road because he could not go home, or his phone was stolen by street thugs. Who would have thought that the man was actually trying to become a hero for his girlfriend. Really ….

“You can explain this?” clark asked, glancing sharply at his best friend.

“Exposing is not a priority for now. Now the most important thing is to get him home safely. There were people who were after him earlier,” replied Andrew with a pretty serious look.

It made Clark swallow back all the complaints that he was ready to make. He could fight with the man later. If Andrew says they have to leave as soon as possible, that means things are really bad.

“Nona ...”

Clark deliberately hung up his words for Keiko to introduce herself. There was no way he could have said that he knew the girl. He and Andrew could have been accused of a plot with the attackers.

“Keiko, my name is Keiko.”

“Nona Keiko, where do you live?” ask Clark while looking at his passenger from the rearview mirror.

Hearing the question made Keiko pensive for a moment. He seems a little doubtful. The two men before him were completely strangers. They've only met twice .. um, three times, plus the current one. No. gabe. More precisely cross. Just cross-legged. Would it be okay to tell where he lives?

After pondering for a moment, finally the girl said in a soft voice, “Please take me to the Park Hyatt hotel Tokyo.”

Andrew and Clark stared at each other for a moment. They knew the girl behind had not trusted them completely. Its alright. Andrew was happy because the girl was very careful. He nodded slowly, gesturing for Clark to drive to one of the best five-star hotels in Tokyo. Unsolicited he immediately typed the hotel name in the GPS search field.

“Good. Fasten seat belts!” clark exclaimed before stepping on the gas pedal deeply.

The car quickly split the streets that were still quite crowded. When viewed from the GPS point, the hotel they are headed about six kilometers. Not too far. At least still within reachable distance.

“Where are your two bodyguards, Miss?” asked Andrew, a little curious where the two burly men were.

“They were shot while trying to protect me. I don't know if they survived or not,” Keiko replied with a glaring look.

Although it looks cruel and creepy, the two men who are always escorting him are actually very polite and kind. They never acted rudely. One of them lunged at the bullet and gave him a chance to escape. He was a little sad because he did not know whether he could still meet the two people or not.

Andrew clenched his hands tightly. Imagining the possibility of Keiko being kidnapped or injured when attacked earlier made her stomach feel nauseous. They may never meet again. It would definitely be a nightmare his entire life, haunting like a demon from hell.

A farewell without a proper goodbye sentence is the most painful. He could feel it from all the pain his memory left behind, the pain of losing someone most precious without even having the chance to say goodbye.

Damn, why am I so emotional, Andrew said in his heart when his eye was suddenly heated up.

“Here we go. We have arrived,” said Clark as he turned into the main lobby of the hotel building that looks magnificent.

“Thank you. Sorry for the trouble, Mr...”

“Andrew. My name is Andrew, and he's Clark. Nice to know you, Miss,” Andrew said as he looked at Keiko's face reflected in the glass.

Andrew hurriedly did the same. He jumped out of the door that was not yet fully open.

“Nona!” call him when you see Keiko is about to walk into the hotel, “Wait a minute.”

The man opened his wallet and handed him a card that could be used to access various hotels and inns around the world. All card payments are automatically billed to the bank account. He placed the rectangular-shaped object in Keiko's hand. He doesn't know what Keiko's plan is after entering the hotel, but he really doesn't want the girl to be in trouble.

“Wear. No need to return it. I still have some—“

“Tuan—“

Keiko opened her mouth and wanted to argue back. His hand was about to push the thing he had just crammed into his grasp. However, Andrew first held back the movement.

“Do not refuse. I beg. Accept this. Think of it as a gift from a friend.”

Keiko sighed softly. He had intended to borrow the phone directly to the receptionist and contact Hiro or his father to pick him up. However, when he saw the sincerity and sincerity that emanated from the look on Andrew's face, he undoes his intention. The girl grasped the silver-colored card given by the man before her carefully.

“Iro iro arigatou gozaimashita-10,” he said as he bowed deeply.

“Take care of yourself,” reply Andrew while slightly bowing.

See you later, he continued in his heart, hoping that the universe would hear his request and grant it.

Keiko smiled faintly before walking in. Andrew stayed in place for a few seconds. The girl's smile was exactly like the round-eyed girl who always came in her dreams. The calm and comfortable feeling he felt when he was near the girl was the same.

Deg ….

Deg ….

Deg ….

Andrew raised his hand and pressed his chest while muttering, “This is not good. Really not good.”

In the car, Clark could only sigh and stomp his suddenly throbbing forehead. He really hopes not to be involved in this drama-filled romance.

“I've never even had a lover, but it's been dizzying love stories of others. Really suck,” grunted before honking and signalling Andrew to get back to the car immediately.

Mr. Tanaka just called her, but she accidentally didn't pick up. Hopefully the old man doesn't go berserk when they arrive at the base later.
