During those two weeks, Akui has seen and been through a lot. Not only on his end, but on kidime's expedition too.

Past

Akui ran off to retrieve a present for kidime and where he went was outside the tea house down the street to a local vendor. They had all sorts of creatures for pets and Akui first choice was going to be a emperor scorpion as the black skin reminded Akui of how dark kidime's hair was. Instead, he saw a small cricket. He picked it up and thought it was perfect since it already came in a small habitat. He purchased it with the money he had been making working for kidime then headed back to the tea house. On his way there, a young boy was crying in his mothers arms. " mom I don't want to go to aunty's." the mother smiled and stroked the hair on the boy's head. "Hey there there, I will always be there to watch over you in here." She pointed to a pendant which was probably their family heirloom. Akui looked at his present and thought about kidime's safety. He wanted to give her more than just a present, he wanted some sense of security for her well-being. He couldn't think of why this present would be worthy until an idea came to his mind. He opened the cage and held onto the cricket, linking his chakra to it then putting it back in the cage." He ran up the flight of stairs to the office and presented his offering to her.

Present

Now, Akui knew better than to think someone like kidime needed his power. While he did have a moment of blindness when she linked herself to the insect, He was able to witness the power that laid dormant within her. Akui wanted that kind of power, he felt with it no one could deny him of being a shinobi. Yet, he had failed miserably to make some sort of income with his drug operation, at least not as much as what kidime was making.

He looked up to the tall woman as she stood there greeting him. Akui didn't know what to say to her as he was conflicted between telling her the truth and continuing to lie about what he was really up to. Nevertheless, he had prepared an explanation in case of her return. For now he was just happy to be in her presence again and he ran to hugged her without saying a word.
