Inside a hallway, Edward could be seen walking with a somewhat troubled expression, but this time it wasn't because of something problematic or worrying as it usually was to cause him to make such a face, this time he was making a troubled expression because he didn't know what to do today, since it was his day-off.

The reason he was having such trouble, was simply because at this hour he would be doing some sort of work, but at the insistence of Nanako who always nagged him about getting more rest, Edward was forced to take a day off once every week, and today was such day.

"... ... ... What to do?... I don't feel like reading right now... If I cook something, Nanako is going to get a little angry at me... I don't feel like sleeping either... Haa... Why is it so difficult to pass time at times like these?"

As Edward began feeling a bit dejected at his choices of lazing around being turned down by himself, he looked outside through one of the windows of the hallway, giving him a rather good view of the modest back garden of his family's manor. But most importantly of all, it allowed him to see Lysette, Nanako, and Atsuko all having a small private tea party between themselves.

"... ... ... I guess, I'll just go spend some time with the three"

Without any other idea, Edward decided to just do what he always did with his fiancées, spending time with them and flirting a whole lot with them as well.

"Lysette-sama! Nanako-san! Please! Do something about Edward-sama's actions! B-Because I do not think I will be able to keep enduring this for much longer!"

"..."

"..."

Lysette and Nanako could only make troubled smiles at Atsuko's desperate request since that was something they had already done, and that was the result.

"Hm... Erm... Atsuko-sama... We will have to refuse your request because... ... ... We already tried asking Edward-sama to tone it down a bit... And he just ignored it..."

"... Eh!? Y-You are s-saying that t-this amount-"

" "... *Nods*" "

"!? I-It cannot be..."

Finding out that she had no way out of her predicament, caused Atsuko to slump down on her chair, as she didn't know how to deal with that situation of hers. Then, just as she was on the verge of complete despair, she felt someone gently embracing her from behind, which caused a chill to run down her spine as she knew exactly who it was.

"Is something the matter, Atsuko-sama?"

When Atsuko turned her face to look at who it was, her despair only grew as it was the very person who she was hoping not to see for a few more hours, Edward.

"I-It's n-nothing, E-Edward-sama?"

"Really?"

"Y-Yes..."

"I see, I'm glad... ... ... Chu"

"Mn!?"

And just like all the past few days, Edward without any warning, kissed Atsuko on the lips, getting her by surprise just like all the other times. This one was a very short one that only lasted for a few seconds, but that was more than enough to cause Atsuko's embarrassment to skyrocket.

"You're looking very cute today as well, Atsuko-sama"

"..."

Unable to muster any more strength to say anything, Atsuko simply looked away with embarrassment painting her face red. After doing his usual greeting to Atsuko, Edward looked at Lysette and Nanako, who both flinched once their eyes met his.
