One sunny afternoon, Eisuke was walking along a busy street when he came across what looked like an argument. No seemed to even notice it as people just walked right past. A man looked ready to hit a young lady but unable to just stand by, Eisuke approached the pair, "Hey, what do you think you are doing? It's not very gentleman like to hit a lady." Eisuke scowled at the man and he lowered his arm with a frown. "Just who do you think you are?!" He shouted and looked ready to attack, "This wench hit me!" He spat, shooting daggers at the young lady.
"And that gives you right to hit her now?" Eisuke asked, looking stern as he spoke. "She's only getting what's coming for her. Should have watched where she was walking." He growled and the young lady's whole body trembled, "I'm really sorry, sir. I didn't mean to-"
"I don't care! Ya shouldn't have hit me!" He snapped and she jumped, too scared to talk any more. Eisuke quickly stood protectively in front of her with his arms crossed, "She said she was sorry. I think you should leave now." Eisuke said and the man clicked his tongue as Eisuke looked at him threateningly, "Whatever. She's a waste of my time." Rolling his eyes he turned around and hurried off.
"Good riddance." Eisuke shook his head and sighed before turning to the girl, "You should be more careful. You were lucky I was here to save you from that creep." Eisuke said and the girl smiled bowing her head, "Thank you. I really appreciate it." It was then something had caught his attention and he inched closer to the girl. "Hmm..." Eisuke peered at her face and she started feeling a little uncomfortable when she could feel his breath against her skin, "....What is it...?" She asked nervously.
"Forgive me if I'm being rude, but are you perhaps blind?" He asked and she gasped and quickly turned her head to the side, "H-How did you know?" She weakly asked. "I knew it..." He sighed. "That explains everything. You should have told that man you couldn't see." Eisuke said and the girls head snapped up, "I tried. But he wouldn't listen." She shook her head with a look of sadness.
"What are you doing out here alone? It's dangerous for someone who can't see to have nothing to guide them." Eisuke asked as he looked over her curiously. She seemed hesitant to answer but finally spoke, "I was looking for work." She said and Eisuke's eyes went wide. "Work?" He said sounding surprised. "That's right. ...I don't have any where to go after I lost my last job. It...It wasn't even my fault but because I'm blind they pinned the blame on me costing me my job and my home." Her voice was mixed with anger and sorrow. "I see..." Eisuke muttered and then took hold of her hand, "Come with me."
"Wha?!" She cried out in shock of having him take her hand. "By the way, It's Eisuke." He said before turning around to start walking."Uh, Elli. My names Elli." She nervously replied as he led her.

"Here we are." Eisuke stopped in front of a tall building, "This is my home." Elli gasped, "Your home?! Why are we here?" Eisuke chuckled at her reaction, "Don't worry. My home is not just any ordinary home. Welcome to Tres Spades."
"Tres Spades? ...NO WAY! The hotel I've heard so much about...You are the owner?!" Elli was completely flabbergasted. She had no idea how she got herself in such a predicament or how lucky she was. Eisuke took Elli inside carefully leading her along. He took her all the way to the penthouse lounge where the other guys were lazing around.
Once they stepped off the elevator and entered the lounge all eyes were on them. "Eisuke?" The guys all had questioning looks as they stared at Elli. "Since when do you pick up girls?" Baba asked. "I didn't know you were such a player." Ota chuckled, winking teasingly. "Shush!" Eisuke's loud firm voice immediately shut everyone up. "Whatever you guys are thinking, wipe it from your mind this instant or I'll have to do it by force." Eisuke smirked and then turned to Elli, "This is Elli. She's not just any ordinary girl you see." He said and the guys looked even more curious, "Really? What is so special about her?" Soryu asked curiously.
Elli stood besides Eisuke feeling really nervous as she didn't know what was happening within her surroundings but she could make out the number of people in the room. "Unfortunately, Elli can't see like we do. When I met her some creep was trying to assault her after she bumped into him."
"And you saved her?" Baba asked and Eisuke nodded, looking proud, "Of course. But that's not all. She doesn't have anywhere to go right now so she will be staying here with us."
"Whhhaaat?!" Elli yelped in surprise, she didn't know anything about this, "What do you mean stay here...?" She timidly asked. "Just what it sounds like. It's too dangerous for you to be out there without a place to go. You are an easy target." He replied and Elli's head dropped, she knew he was right. The others also looked shocked from Eisuke's proposal, It wasn't everyday he did something like this.
"What's gotten in to you? Since when have you been so...nice?" Ota asked in surprise and the others nodded their heads in agreement. "What are you trying to stay?" Eisuke's head snapped in their direction, he looked to be glaring at them, "I'm always nice. It has nothing to do with me feeling pity for her. It's just too dangerous out there for her to be alone." The guys all sighed and shrugged their shoulders, they knew it was no use continuing on the subject.
"But, I can't just stay here without offering anything in return." Elli shook her head, desperation filling her eyes. "It's fine. You don't have to do anything." Eisuke said. "Please let me help." She reached out a hand towards his arm as she begged him. Seeing her look so determined, Eisuke shrugged his shoulders with a sigh, "Fine. You can help take care of the hotel. Are you able to get around on your own?" He asked and she nodded, "Yes. Usually I am very capable of moving on my own and getting around without hitting anything. ...But," Elli thought back to the man she hit earlier, "Sometimes I do make mistakes and get myself into all kinds of situations." She said with an awkward smile. "Then starting from tomorrow you will be working as a maid in return for me allowing you to live here." Eisuke said and she smiled, "Yes. Thank you so much." She bowed her head.
Elli was so relieved to have not only found somewhere to work but also live. Elli didn't quite fancy wondering the streets alone in look of work and a home but then out of nowhere, Eisuke, like her knight in shining armor rescued her and even gave her just what she was looking for. Elli was nearly moved to tears from his generosity. It wasn't everyday she met someone so willing to help out a blind person.
