The Package

p { margin-bottom: 0.08in; }

The bartender that worked at the bar was very helpful towards Haku. The woman had told Haku of her meeting the yakuza and leaving the bar with three men to go to a location where gambling took place. Haku thanked the woman and bought another bottle of sake, after all she drank the bottle that she had on her person earlier in the afternoon.

 

Once she entered the run down building Haku found someone who recalled her exploits with the yakuza, as well as leaving their gambling to go to their headquarters. Haku potitely asked where she could find the yakuza headquarters; the stranger gladly divulged that information.

 

Finally Haku reached the place that she was sure she was to find the package. Three men stood outside of the residential home acting as guards.

 

“Um, hi. I was here last night and I need to get something that I left behind here,” Haku nervously said to the men out front.

 

“Well if itsn't Haku!” One of the men said. “How did you do after you left last night? Did you get that chick to sleep with you?” The man asked.

 

“Um, no, I don't think. Look, I really don't remember what happened last night so I need to talk to someone who can help me find a very important package,” Haku explained.

 

“I've got a package for you,” one of the men said as he exposed his stiff willywacker to Haku.

 

“¡No tengo gusto de esto!” Haku exclaimed after seeing the rigid fuck pole.

 

“Hey, cut it out man. You know, I get what this is about, go inside and talk to the boss,” the third man said in a more serious tone.

 

Haku nodded and entered the house unaware of what awaited her inside. Inside a room decorated like an executives office Haku approached the man sitting at the desk.

 

“If this is about the money then give me some time to get it! Please, I beg of you, I've been having a really bad week and I just need another week to get the money!” The man pleaded.

 

“Oh no, it's not about that,” a confused Haku said, “in fact, I will let you off the hook for the money if you just help me find an important package I had with me last night,” Haku quickly declared.

 

“Oh thank you Haku! And you gave that package to the beautiful woman you left with last night. By the way, did you ever score with her?” The man said with a sense of relief from being absolved of his debt.

 

“Do you know what the woman's name is? It would help me a lot if you could tell me!” Haku was beginning to feel desperate again.

 

“She said her name was Meiko. I think you knew her from before last night,” The man said.

 

Haku felt as if a weight had been lifted off of her chest, she knew a Meiko and she knew where to find her.

 

Haku bowed to thank the yakuza boss. “Thank you so much! Wait... you're not really yakuza are you?” Haku asked suspiciously.

 

“Eh, no, we're not, but please don't let the real yakuza know! I am pretty sure they will kill us if they heard about us!” The man pleaded with Haku once more.

 

Haku no longer cared and shrugged it off. The fake yakuza boss gave Haku a bottle of sake to show his gratitude before Haku took her leave. Haku's new destination was now Meiko's home. She took the train in hopes of getting there before she finished drinking her current bottle of sake. When she arrived at Meiko's house she was very inebriated, staggering towards Meiko's apartment she knocked on the door.

 

Meiko, who was equally if not more inebriated than Haku, answered the door.

 

“What, um, what do you want?” Meiko said with a slur.

 

“I'm looking for this,” Haku said as she held up her cupped hand in an attempt to pantomime a package.

 

“Oh that. Yeah. I got that,” Meiko said as she pulled Haku into her home.

 

Once inside Meiko sat Haku at her table, once Haku was settled Meiko poured her a glass of nigori sake. Haku quickly drained the cup and gently set it down on the table as she looked up at her hostess.

 

“Um, this isn't what I wanted,” Haku addmitted.

 

“Then why would you drink it you moron!” Meiko bellowed.

 

Unfortunately she would not be receiving an answer as Haku had fallen asleep at the table. Meiko sighed and left the sleeping Haku to rest.
