"What did you just say?"

"We just passed a decision to remove all the US troops out of our country, sir."

"Did I?!" poor Nagasawa Tsubasa. He barely understood what was happening under his nose.

"What about the Japan-US alliance!?!"

"You made the decision, sir. Were you on high or something?"

"PREPOSTEROUS!" the Prime Minister slammed his hands on the desk. When did they even arrive at such a decision?

"And they agreed to this!?!"

"We had our way, sir."

"But WHY!?"

The foreign minister lifted his glasses. "Because no one can be trusted, sir."

Never had Nagasawa faced such a confusing situation in life. He had his jaws dropped when one informed him that even the Emperor supported this decision.

Therefore he threw rages all over the place. The defence minister and foreign minister exchanged glances, signifying, 'Should we get rid of him as well?'

'No. For now just keeps him as a hostage.' And so that was settled.

When his temper eased, the Prime Minister, along with his anxiety syndrome developed throughout the years, began to explore different possibilities that weren't connected to the main event. And there, Shirayuki Sae's deduction suddenly came to his mind.

'I must get this sort out!' he concluded.

That night, while Hide was reorganizing the servants' schedule, the telephone in the house rang and thus he came to pick it up only to receive a rather unusual request from his boss.

"The little girl that Juria is staying with -- you're gonna arrange a meeting with her for me. Check the schedule."

From Sae's perspective, how was she doing? Right on the day when the ISU ladies' short program was held, Sakakibara Ren was dressed up in a style of a philanderer like the way his character was. He stood in the street of Shinjuku waiting for a particular girl to show up...while waving to every cute girl passing by.

"That guy is so good-looking," the female strangers whispered sheepishly to each other. But when some of them approached Ren, what they got for a reply was:

"Sorry, I have a girlfriend," he replied with a flirty wink.

But half an hour passed by and his supposed-to-be girlfriend still didn't show up, and Ren began to have doubts about himself. What did he do for Sae to hate him this much?

Seo Tomoya was still staying at his house by the time, conveniently he became a news reporter for every of Ren's next moves. And perhaps that was why the entire class already knew the notorious gloomy girl Sae was going on a date with the school's philanderer. Lucky for them the curious classmates already had a much more important thing to shift their attention away, which was the ISU competition.

More than half an hour already and Sae still didn't show up, Ren had no choice but to call her. In Ren's eyes, Sae was the ultimate 'missing-calls' queen. Heck, she didn't even bother to reply to his text. Ren sighed and put his phone down resignedly, thinking that he'd just pick out a random strange girl and hang out with her instead. Just then, the gloomy girl with her hoodie shadowing her face appeared right behind him, poking his back.

"Gyahh! Oh, it's you, Sae-chan! Well, hello there beautiful~" Ren fixed his two-blocks hair. Sae's expression darkened as she clicked her tongue in annoyance.

Acknowledging that Ren was on the run of chasing her, she said, "What's the point of fixing your ugly hair? Have you ever tried going bald? I think it suits you better."
