Chapter 2

Kaiya stretched her back it was another boring day in the clinic... She was tapping her fingers on the desk, looking at the wall clock above her waiting for it to tick closer to 5:00pm. It was Friday and she was looking forward to her weekend off. Today was an unusually rare slow day at the clinic... Her parents only had a handful of patients and were now busy discussing something in her father's office while she handled the front desk.

As soon as the clocked reached 5, she stood up, gathering her belongings, letting out a happy sigh

"I'm free~" She sang, slipping her jacket on before she walked into her parents office

"I'm leaving!" She announced but her parents quieted down, turning to look at her and she gave them a puzzled look in return

"Is everything okay?" She asked and her mother nodded, smiling

"Yes, yes, come sit here for a minute. We need to talk to you..."

She was confused, setting her bag down before she sat down next to her mother. Her father seemed relaxed, quite happy in fact, a grin on his face. He looked like he was dying to tell her something and she laughed,

"Why are you guys being so suspicious?" She asked and her mother closed her mouth just for a second before she burst like a balloon

"I know you told me not to mention any potential marriage candidates but please hear us out!" She blurted and Kaiya groaned, rolling her eyes

"Okasan please... I don't want to meet Matsuri-san's nephew... He looks like a creep... I know she's been insisting but I'm really not-"

"It's not him. I'd rather go to hell than let you meet Matsuri's dodgy nephew..." Otosan cut in and Kaiya kept quiet... Before rubbing her temple,

"Who is it this time?"

Okasan grinned, putting her hands on her face in excitement

"Sakusa-san's son!"

She actually felt her jaw drop, and her mother gently pushed her chin up to close her mouth

"What...?"

Otosan cleared his throat, nodding

"Kiyoomi's father called me a few days ago... I wasn't sure whether to bring this up earlier, but your mother and I spoke about it and we decided to talk to you now. Kiyoomi is a very well-mannered and successful young man. He's on the national volleyball, y'know? He's a year older than you and I've always liked him... We want to introduce you both to each other formally and then you can take it from there? What do you say?"

Kaiya was taken back, they weren't usually this persistent about a potential marriage candidate but looking at how eager her parents were, she didn't know how to respond. She wasn't going to lie, Sakusa did tweak her interest a little bit... There was something about him, in the brief moments they had met before. She was curious and she found him incredibly attractive but... He had a cold demeanour about himself...

"Kaiya?" Her mother asked, putting a hand on Kaiya's knee, distracting her

"If you're not comfortable about this... It's alright, we won't be upset with you so don't force yourself... but I think you should give him a chance... I can sense something positive about this" She said, and Kaiya just nodded before crossing her arms, thinking for a second

"Fine... but I don't want a formal introduction through you guys or his parents. If he's keen about this, then you can pass my number onto him and he can make the first move. We'll handle it from there"
