If there were two words she could use to describe her life for the past week in Bonten's residence, it was boring and weird. Ever since that incident, Mikey forbid her from leaving the mansion until her body's gone back to normal.


"We're leaving now, Fuyumi." Mikey called out to the girl drinking coffee by the dining table. "Itterasshai~" she hummed, taking another sip from her beverage. One by one, the executives bid their goodbyes via affection. Mikey, Kakucho, and Ran patted her head; Mochi tapped her shoulder; Takeomi ruffled her hair; Koko left a peck on the top of her head; Sanzu and Rindou both kissed either of her cheeks.


The first time they did this, she froze like a stone. She didn't really know how to react. They've always been some sort of caring towards her, but after what happened, it's like something inside them switched. They were much more attentive, and more than anything, they started to show affection. Even the grumpy old fucker that despised her, Ran, started giving her random head pats every now and then.


She smiled as they all finished their farewell gestures. She could hear the engines of their cars revving outside, and she'd kill to go to work with them again. The sound of the car engines running and disappearing made her feel empty. She wanted to go outside again.


"Felix. Let's go out."


"W-what?! Have you gone mad? I'm your body guard--" Fuyumi was quick to throw her slipper at his face, a move she learned from Mikey. "I didn't mean 'date' , you dumbass. I mean let's go outside the house! I'm bored of staying in here," she complained. As if rehearsed, Kota suddenly appeared in front of them.


"Kota, my baby! Do you want to go on a date with nee-san?" She asked, taking her brother in her arms. Kota was quick to respond, nodding his little head ecstatically. Felix was quick to take the child from her grasp. "Mikey made it clear that you can't leave the house, Fuyumi. If we disobey, it's not your blood that will splatter on the floor, but mine."


Fuyumi knew very well that Mikey would be mad, but even worse, Sanzu and Rindou would definitely throw a tantrum and won't let Felix hear the end of it. She didn't really want Felix to go through hell because of her, but she was dying to go outside. A week of staying inside was driving her crazy. She already cleaned the rooms and even reorganized the furniture, but she soon ran out of things to do.


"If any of them even dare to cuss at you, I won't sit around and do nothing and I won't shut up about it. Trust in me, Felix. If they're going to lecture someone, it should be me and not you. So come on, let's go out!" she cheered, giving him a persuasive smile that he couldn't resist.


"If one of the executives lay a finger on me, I'm disowning you." Felix huffed. "Fine. Whatever you say, dad." She replied sarcastically, rolling her Atlantic hues at the latter. Kota couldn't help but smile as he watched the two bicker. It really does take them way back, reminiscing their life before they left the Chastain household, before leaving their family names.


"Nee-san, I want a pet."


Both Fuyumi and Felix were taken aback. Kota wasn't really one who made requests or asked his sister for a lot. Him asking for something, more so a pet, was a surprising gesture for her. "Hmm. Then I guess it's settled. We're going out and we're going to a pet shop!"
