Fukurou nodded. "I'm sorry, Ms. Oki. I should have kept my mouth shut from his as well. I acted childesh and wanted to revenge myself on Baoh for what he had done to me at my own house. That is why I told Yuki and the blonde man that information..."

"Blonde man? Did he... Did he happen to look like me, this blonde man?"

Fukurou studied her for a moment. "No, much darker hair," he said after a moment's consideration. For a moment, he was going to say that they did have the same eyes, but Suoh's eyes had been glossy from alcohol at the time, even though he was in far better shape that Yuki had been. "One of Mr. Yuki's drinking buddies I would guess."

"About this tall?" Oki asked, raising her hand two inches higher than she was. "Lanky?"
"Drinking buddy" completely sounded like Suoh.

Fukurou thought for a few moments. "Approximately that, yes, Ms. Oki. They wanted to know about Ms. Otomeken's relationship to Baoh... I feel awful for abusing your trust and divulging such information to be used against you Ms. Oki." Fukurou thought she must have known the whole story already now. "I can only conclude that Baoh has chosen to forgo his comitment to Ms. Otomeken and has chosen to pursue a life with you instead since he seems so... into you," he said trying to use a phrase he'd heard on the streets, but it didn't seem pleasent to his tongue. "He must believe that either Ms. Otomeken will not return, or he will inform her when she does..."

"Well," Oki said almost stiffly. "It's good to know you've met my brother..."

Fukurou straighted. "I was unaware you had siblings Ms. Oki," he said, not understanding her stiffness. "Should I, not, have met him?"

"I'm just glad that he's making friends, even if he is keeping secrets... Sorry, yes I have a brother. A twin, even if he does prefer to keep his hair darker than mine. I hadn't seen him since we were three until he showed up here with Yuki one night."

"Keeping secrets?" Fukurou focused on that one thing. "You mean... You didn't know about Ms. Otomeken?" the color started to drain from his face, thinking he'd made some drastic mistake in saying that...

"Yuki told me about Otomeken," Oki replied. "Suoh hasn't said two words about any of it."

The color returned to Fukurou's face, slowly. "I hope that he was not crass in his disclosure of the information... Or nearly so intoxicated as he was when I encountered the gentlemen..."

"No, he was quite sober and as well behaved as could be expected when he related it. He took ample opportunity of me not being able to argue with him to spell it all out clearly."

Fukurou's brow contorted in a look of non-comprehension. "Well, that certainly sounds... more appropriate than your brother's notion of drafting a letter to Ms. Otomeken to inform her of the goings on at home. I think..."

Oki could feel the heat rising to her face. She hadn't expected Suoh to be in this with Yuki, but now their camaraderie made far more sense.
"He wanted to do that, did he? How thoughtful of him... It's good to know who he's looking out for."

Fukurou had no idea that this was before Suoh knew it was his sister that he was working against, and so he couldn't even use that to defend the man. "Ms. Oki. If you know the situation, I trust that you understand what you are doing, and perhaps have spoken to Baoh on this very matter, and so, have a much better understanding of it than any of us. That being the case, I trust your judgement and pray that your happiness continues on its course..." He paused and looked at her. "Are you feeling ok Ms. Oki? You look flushed..."
