Chapter 1 - Reunited

Mukami's Mansion

Another fine day had passed by. Fine day but quiet... The brothers are still as usual. Cheerful Kou and Yuma, quiet Azusa and the always strict Ruki. But, only one more person missing. The girl they cared to. All of them are really miss her, especially Ruki-the girl's lover. He's spending his time in the library, reading few books but he can't stop thinking about her. They maybe going out but since the day she left...

"Yahooo~ Ruki-kuunn!!!" Kou suddenly enter the library.

"Kou? What is it?" Ruki asking.

"You still have no news about pyon-chan?"

"No"

"Nee, Ruki-kun? Why you didn't contact her not even once this pass year?" True. Since Janne left them, not even once Ruki contacting her or even Janne. "Are you sure you both are lover?" Kou mocking him.

"It's not like I don't want to reach her"

"Then why?"

"I don't want myself become the reason she couldn't focus on achieving what she wants. I don't want my loneliness disturbing her and my chances to meet her as soon as possible gone just by this feelings" Ruki explaining his missing feelings.

"Well... Yeah that's true, but-- You're both lovers, right? It's normal if you want to get in contact with the girl you like" 

"Hmph. That's correct, Kou. But..." Ruki raise up from his chair and look at Kou. "But if that means I have to prolong our reunion, not contacting is better" He said with a smile to him.

"Ruki-kun..."

"Don't worry. Janne contacted me when she arrived in her home and I told her that I will not get in touch with her at all. I don't want to disturb her precious moments. I want her to finished her business as soon as possible and we will meet immediately"

"I see. So, that's why pyon-chan never contacted us too"

"Sorry I never told you any of that" Ruki apologizing.

"Nope. It's okay, Ruki-kun. I understand. It's for our and pyon-chan's goodness. True we have M-neko-chan around but I want pyon-chan more" When both of them talking, someone's opening the door roughly.

"OY KOUUU!!! Did you purposely destroy my peppers again?!? HAAH?!?" Yuma shouting at him.

"Eeeh?!? I didn't do anything to it! Maybe Yuma-kun's strong grip is the one which destroying it" Kou defending.

"HAH?!? Of course it's not! If it's because of myself, I won't yell at you!"

"Stop it you two! Good grief!" Ruki scolding his two little brothers. And then, someone entering the door...

"Ah... Yuma... I... want to... apologize... about... your pepper... I'm... sorry" Azusa came and apologizing to Yuma.

"Eh? Azusa? You were the one who--"

"Yes... That's why... Kou... is not... wrong... If... you want... you can... punch me... Fufu..."

"Eh? Uhm... I guess it's... fine then" Yuma said.

"Geez~ Yuma-kun, you have to make sure first if it's truly because of me or others. Don't judge me because I hate peppers" Kou told him.

Kring, Kring, Kring

Suddenly, there's a phone call ringing around. All of them were looking at the source. It's Ruki's phone which ringing and then he take out from his pocket and take a look at the name.
