Love In Japan

Air watched everyone eating for a few minutes. She smiled and said, "I'm giving you all this week to get use to everything. The girls will accompany you any where you want to go outside of the house. "

Yesung asked, "What is in the barn?"

Air smirked and got up. Without saying a word, she left. The guys were confused. Megumi sighed and said, "That was your cue to follow her."

The guys got up and hurried after Ai. The girls followed the guys. When everyone caught up to Ai, she was half way to the barn. When they reached the barn, Ai opened the doors and motioned for everyone to go in. When the guys were inside, they were amazed by all the different horses.

There were Palominos, Mustangs, Thoroughbreds and Paints. Ai said, "Welcome to Horse Haven. This is where people bring old or neglected horses. I work with the horses to rebuild their trust in humans. Some get adopted. Some just stay here."

The guys could hear the love in her voice. Key asked, "Are all these horses rideable?"

Ai nodded. "They are all very gentle. I do ask that you never ride alone. Take one of the guys or one of the girls. I don't want anyone injured or lost."


The guys nodded. Everyone went back inside the house. Hankyung and Key started to clear the table. Ai said, "You guys don't have to do that. I could have gotten it"

Key shook his head. "You made breakfast. It is only fair that someone else does the dishes. You go relax for a little bit."

Ai bite her lip. "Are you sure?"

Hankyung nodded. "Go. Key and I have this covered."

Ai nodded and went to her office. She had to figure some stuff out. A little later, there was a knock on the door. Ai said, "Come in."

The door opened and in walked Siwon. Ai asked, "What can I do for you?"

"I just wanted to let you know that a group of us are going horseback riding. We'll be home by dinner."

Ai nodded to show that it was okay and that she understood. Siwon left her office. Ai started to go over everyone's schedules. Everyone had so much packed into their schedules that there was no time to rest. Ai gasped and picked up her phone.

She called her boss. A voice said, "Hello."

"Boss' I want their old managers fired."

Her boss sighed. "Why?"

"Their managers have their schedules so packed, I'm surprised one of them hasn't passed out by now. There is no time to rest or recoup between everything."

"This is why I knew I could trust you. You think about the person, not the money. I fired those managers the day you took over. I had already learned about their schedules from Leeteuk."

"Good. I have given them this week off."

"Okay."

Ai hanged up.
