"Do you favor Matsuoka Noriko, Seijūrō?" His father asked him from across the dining table as they were eating exquisite food made by their chefs.

Akashi kept silent as he continued eating his food as if he hadn't heard his father.

His father muttered a small "tch" before speaking once more. "Your mother would have favored her to be with you."

"May I ask," Akashi said slowly, "why are we speaking about my future? Are you not contented with my academic standing? My scores are all on top, father, and no one can beat me when it comes to grades and intellect I can assure you that. I would rather focus on the present than the future."

"This is for your own good." Was his father's reply.

"Don't you mean your own good? You are only doing this because you do not want the company to go bankrupt so you use your child in order to maintain ascendancy. Think of your own son for once. How does he feel with you taking control of his actions? You are only happy because of my excellent standing in school but what about me? I am not the old Seijūrō who would only be concerned for success and victory, this is the new and improved Seijūrō who thinks about his own happiness as well, who does not purely think solely about victory. He does not want other people making his choices for him, which is pure balderdash, father. I make my own choices because I am not a puppet that is to be controlled by someone."

"What are you saying, Seijūrō?" His father hissed with anger and venom laced in his voice.

"I am saying that I do not want to marry Matsuoka Noriko-san!" Akashi snapped as he abruptly stood up and slammed his hands on the table which startled the maids and butlers. "I do not want to marry someone who I do not love, father! That is an absurdity that I cannot tolerate!" His heterochromia eyes clashed with his father's red ones.

"'Love'?" His father echoed as he shot up from his seat as well. "What do you know about love, Seijūrō? You are nothing but a naïve little boy who knows naught of those petty things!"

"I know it very well because I have felt it here," Akashi placed his palm on his chest, "in my heart, unlike you who was blinded by success and money. You are not really proud of me, you are only proud of the results I make. I have craved for freedom ever since and I would gladly throw away victory for my liberty.

"And remember when I kept on saying 'Since I always win, I'm always right'? That is one of the most bullshit thingsthat I have ever said. I do not care about winning or losing anymore because I know that when I lose I know that people will support me until I stand up again.

"Someone important to me told me once, 'Win or lose, enjoy life' and I would do exactly what she had said. With that simple phrase she taught me that life isn't all about winning because at some point of our life, we fail but no matter how many times we reach our downfall, we will accomplish success. I am thankful for that girl because she taught me the simple things in life can be enjoyed, not purely on attainments. I thank God for giving me someone who taught me something valuable which is the very reason I am falling for this girl!"

"I don't care if you love someone else, Seijūrō!" His father snapped. "You are to marry Noriko-san or I swear I will disown you! This is for the sake of our companies!"

Akashi shook his head. "You disappoint me, father. You are so narrow-minded and focused on success." He scoffed. "Remember when you had a life and stopped making bitchy comments about mine?" He quoted an artist from the tweet he saw that was viral. Akashi slammed his hands on the table once again. "Make sure you hear this; I would rather be disowned than marry someone I do not love." He threw his table napkin on his chair and calmly walked out of the room but not before turning back and giving his father a side long glance. "Do you know where you ultimately failed at, father?"

...

"You failed at loving your son." He declared, making his father grit his teeth. "And for your information, mother would have favored me to be free and to be with the one I am falling for." With that, Akashi turned his back and retreated to his room.

He grabbed his phone from his side table and turned it on to see the girl he was falling for. "Hey, Akashi-sama!" Yumi greeted with her usual bright smile. "By the way- oh my, did something happen?" She inquired with a worried look as she took a look at Akashi's anger filled face. "I've never seen you so angry, well besides that time I searched for that doujinshi-"

"Can we not talk about that?" He snapped a bit harshly, though he only realized it once he saw the pain on Yumi's face. "I... I didn't mean-"

Yumi shook her head. "No, it's okay. I understand, I shouldn't have mentioned it." Even though she just wanted to lighten up Akashi's mood, she realized that she didn't need to mention that incident. He had every right to get mad at her. "I'm sorry. You're already angry at something, and, ah, I-I'll be going."

"Wait!" The red head exclaimed before Yumi could disappear to only God knows where. Unfortunately for him, he was a second to late because she disappeared from his phone, leaving some aqua pixels behind, leaving it to dissipate.

He needs to cool off, I might just add to his anger. It might be one of his red days, was what she thought before literally surfing through the net.

"Hey," he muttered as he lied down on his bed with his phone facing him, "come back," he muttered once more, "oi, Yumi... I think I'm falling for you..." He spoke with a soft voice merely above a whisper.

Nothing happened.

He sighed and dialed Ami's number. "Watamura-san, I think I'll be going to Okayama a bit earlier than said."
