The young Maiko and Geisha bathed in the warm raze of the sun, soaking the heat of the hot springs, it was one of the few days they could enjoy time to themselves without the stress of events

"The Todoroki come over to the tea house frequently, do you know why Kiyoshi" the eldest asked, Keiko a mint green haired woman with bronze skin, her hair cropped and short, she was the oldest of Temari's children, she was a successful Geisha with the prettiest vermillion eyes

"Hm, Haha said something about
discussing a business deal with
Enji sama, though I'm not sure"

"Why Keiko nee, is there a problem" another asked, Kashiya was a lilac haired girl, equally as beautiful, she was the second oldest with soft doe purple eyes and honey glazed skin "she's probably just being paranoid as usual" Momoko was a dark haired girl, with pink eyes and pale skin, she was the half sister to the three girls, biological sister to Himiko

"There's absolutely nothing wrong with keeping your guard up, Momoko, whereas it's not the first time esteemed guests have come over more than once"she scorned, aside from their mother Temari and Keiko, Himiko was the longest reigning geiko who had trained many Maiko she had dark blue hair a slender frame and magenta coloured eyes

The young geiko washed Kiyoshi's back, noting the three red tomes which illuminated at the sudden contact "regardless, Enji is a samurai shouldn't he be in the capital, why bother himself with mere entertainers, he should be by the emperors side"

"We are not just mere entertainers. .we are the best and perhaps the Emperor sent him to watch over us, the recent attacks are getting closer to gion, revealing ourselves is dangerous"

"He seems different, cautious" the youngest spoke, "the first time he came, Enji brought his son, the other times he wanted Mother personally and every time he asked for me his son was there" each of the girls looked towards her "Shoto. .the young samurai"

"Yes" they noticed, the way her eyes began to sparkle at the mention of his name "what's with the look" Momoko pointed out, weariness in her eyes "nothing It was just a thought, it doesn't matter... it won't matter"

"All thoughts are important imouto, even the ones you do not reveal" Kashiya pulled a petal from her hair smiling down at her sister

"yes, I suppose"

"Don't you wish. . .we could do something else, be something else" she asked cautiously, waiting for a change in their expression "I love dancing and singing, I love everything we do but. .will we ever have our own lives and not be tied down, it's more than entertainment for us.. these girls they will be free one day"
