Y/n POV

"I would like to know about your relationship with my sister." Fuka said and I sighed.

"Well, would you like some tea then ? Or coffee. We can make it prepared for you and-" I offered, but she cut me off immediately.

"No... Don't try to sugarcoat this or avoid it. I want to know. It's about my sister." Fuka's voice was lowered, like she wasn't really all that happy.

"Well alright. Kiryuin senpai, please hand over your phone." I asked her, which surprised her.

"Sorry, but this information is something which shouldn't be spoken about in public and I won't take any risk of you recording it." I said this firmly, making it clear that I meant what I said.

She sighed and placed her phone on the table, after showing that she wasn't recording anything that is. Seeing this, I smiled at her.

"Thank you for cooperating with us senpai. It's really appreciated." I thanked her.

I smiled at her and crossed my legs. "But of course, I won't be giving out this information for free. I want something from you as well."

"What ? Listen, I'm a fun person and all, but I'm really not in the mood right now." Fuka was not having it. She wanted to hear about her sister right away, but I can't just tell her like that now can I ? No I can't. It's too confidential for that.

"You know, if you don't want to cooperate, you could just leave. But if you are leaving, remember that this offer will remain for as long as you want and you can come back to us at any moment of the year." I told her, which made her visibly tense up. From what I've noticed so far about Fuka, she seems to be sensetive when it comes to Rika, which shows how much she cares for her little sister.

"You're being unreasonable."

"Yes or no senpai. There's no answer in between." I said in a playful tone of voice, making it seem like I was enjoying this.

Seeing that she had no other choice, Kiryuin senpai stared at me. "What is it that you want ?"

Hearing her reply, I smirked a little. "Well, you see. I've already made plans for this school and for the other classes and I have important work for you to do. A favour if you would like to call it that."

"And what exactly do you want me to do ?" She asked while raising an eyebrow at me.

I looked at Kiyotaka and nodded, which made him look at Kiryuin with a neutral expression. "We would like it if you can look over the second year for us and if possible, the third year as well. It would prove to be beneficial for us to have an ally or spy in the upper classes after all."

"Oh, I see. So that's your plot huh ? You've got some kind of scheme in mind. I can tell that much. You're both amusing, I'll be honest. If we were talking in any normal circumstances, I would probably laugh." She said, gaining a small smile at the end there.

"Alright. That shouldn't be too hard. Besides, it could also make my boring life here more lively and fun." She agreed, making me smile in satisfaction.

"That's good. Then I guess we can officially get into the topic about your little sister, Rika Kiryuin." I told her and she straightened up, bending a little forward to hear better.

Kiyotaka decided to start speaking first. "Alright so, where should I begin ? Should I strictly talk about Rika, or start straight from the start ?"

"Start from the start. It won't make sense if she doesn't know about the Whiteroom and it's masterpieces before knowing about Rika." I told him, making him nod and look at Fuka
