Richard Wagner's music was truly a masterpiece.
There wasn't a day when Keigo didn't begin his day without listening to his music. Lohengrin was one of his favourites. He even joined the bid for the first edition phonograph record and was willing to pay ¥ 2,000,000 for it. It was a small price for something as grand as Wagner after all. The gramophone he inherited from his great grandfather was the more reason to buy the record.
Walking out of his bathroom, Keigo went to the window and opened the curtain to reveal the magnificent view of his house. His mother's favourite cherry blossom trees that perfectly lined the road to his house were ready to bloom as April was just tomorrow.
Keigo smirked when he spotted the car that brought his princess to finally enter the golden gate into the mansion. Buttoning down his dress shirt, he walked out from his room with both hands shoved into his pants. He smirked wider when Hikari's impatient steps echoed throughout the room, covering his mouth when he saw how what an awful mess she was with her loosened braid on her right and wearing a different pair of shoes.
"W-Weirdo!" she screamed as she quickly approached him with worry visibly glistened in her eyes. "A-are you alright? What was this emergency you mentioned in the message? Are you hurt?"
"Never thought that you would associate 'emergency' with my well-being but ore-sama is very happy to know that you were actually worried," he amusedly said.
She blinked. "So... what is this 'emergency'?"
"Nothing. Just wanted you to come and make sure you didn't refuse."Her thunderstruck expression was worthless but he clearly didn't see flying magazines being thrown in his direction coming. She wrathfully took everything within her arms' reach and threw them. Keigo skillfully caught one, avoiding the other while he stealthily approached her and caught her wrist. "Hey, stop that."
"You bastard! I canceled the meeting with my friend because I thought you really weredying!"
"Well, you're right about that. I was dying—" she stopped her movement, "—to see you." She scrunched her nose at this but he didn't miss the touch of red that spread across her cheeks. "I'm thrilled to have you here, Princess. Although I must say that you look—" he looked down to her feet, "—funny."
