"Master Keisuke?" – the maid called out again.
"Uhm... let her in, I'll be right there"
Hideya looks at him with 'dude why are you going to see her when we are in the middle of something' look.
"Alright" – the maid left.
"What's up with that?"
"Huh?"
"Are you forgetting what happened? And we are in the middle of something here"
"What else do you want me to do?"
"Well, I was hoping that you will send her away like you always did for the past few days?"
"I fixed everything up with you, I think it is right to also clear things for her"
"Yeah but right now of all time" – Hideya saw a glimpse of sadness on Keisuke as he puts on his clothes "Alright, I understand"
"Now you stay here, I don't want her to know that you're in my house at this time of night"
"But she's here at this time of night so what's wrong with me being here?" – Hideya whines like a child.
Keisuke looks at him with 'really dude you don't know the difference and why?' look. The ginger prince went to see Saki in the living room.
"Kei-kun!" – the girl exclaimed and quickly runs and hugs him "I missed you so much, I was worried about you. You've been out for two weeks" – she added.
Hideya is hiding from the stairs watching them "Alright" – he whispered as he frowns.
"I'm sorry to worry you"
Soon Saki remembers that Keisuke told him to stay away from him for a while "I'm sorry if I keep on coming to your house even after you told me to stay away from you"
"It's alright, I'm the one who should be apologizing despite your effort of visiting me every day I didn't see you"
"I came here because your mother sent me an email, she's asking me what happened because you told her that you will be going to America tonight. I read the email after class so I quickly rush in here"
"That is just a plan and I think I wouldn't be doing it anymore"
Saki gave out a sigh of relief "I'm sorry" - she said knowing the possible reason for it.
"I've already told you that you don't have to say sorry, it's my fault. Will you forgive me for hurting you?"
"Kei-kun"
"And also for hiding from you all this time, it must have been hard for you"
The conversation went a long way while avoiding the topic of what Keisuke said to Hideya. They've started talking about their childhood days, which could be their way of rebuilding their friendship.
"I remember when Shohei-senpai called you China doll because you looks so cute back then"
"Yeah, I remember that" – Keisuke laugh gently as they look through the photo album.
Hideya decided to return to the prince's room and lay down on his bed "Come to think of it, I barely know Keisuke" – he whispered as he falls asleep.

One hour later, Saki decided to go home.
"It's late, I should accompany you"
"No, I'll be fine besides my house isn't that far from here"
"Still I want to make sure you got home safe"
