A/N: The girl in the picture is Amaya. ;)

Hello everyone! I'm Shinonome Amaya. Amaya means 'night rain'. That's probably the reason I like rainy nights. I had a happy life. My mom, dad and my sister. We had a small udon reastaurant. Although we weren't rich we loved each other. I guess you can say that I was the trouble-maker in my family. Although me and my sister were twins, we were very different. I Always caused trouble by coming home late, skipping class, having terrible grades, even drinking and smoking. While my sister was always dilligent, on time, had avarege grades but they were still better than mine (sometimes), she never smoked or drank and had a lot of good friends. She had short hair while mine was long. She also dressed like a fool while I dressed normally not standing out from the crowd. She was Always confident and happy. While I had anxiety and was pretty depressed at times. We were like yin and yang. She was always positive and happy and I was negative and thought about the worst case scenarios. My teachers said I had potential and was talented but I didn't believe them. My sister spent most of her time helping at the restaurant while I worked part-time all over the place to spare some money and to help our family out. I stayed at home while Mei and our parents went somewhere with the car. I didn't ask. And I didn't care. In a few hours my phone rang. Saying that my parents had died in a car accident.

"And what about my sister? Is she all right?!" I panicked holding my tears back.

"I'm sorry but we do not know anything about your sister. There were only two people in the car and that were your parents. There was no trace of a third person involved in the accident." the police officer said "I'm sorry for your loss." he added and then hung up.

"What do you mean?" I cried out "How can they be dead?!" I screamed while crying "They were so happy this morning ad on top of that Mei-chan went missing?!"

That night I didn't sleep much. I called Mei-chan's friends, Kento and her bestfriend Nakamoto Natsumi, that Mei went missing and our parents have died in a car accident. But they absolutely can't tell anyone and that I'll have to pretend to be Mei for the time being as some dangerous guys might be after her. I also explained that I know that we're the granddaughter's of the Hengo family and that only Mei can succeed the business as my evil grandfather doesn't even acknowledge my existance. I also said that he's a selfish and evil man from what I heard from our parents when I secretly eaves-dropped them talking. They both agreed to do what I said and they said they'd help me with looking for Mei-chan. Natsumi explained it to her family and they said they'd cooperate. On the day of our parent's funeral I didn't cry. I was determined to find and protect Mei-chan. I didn't tell you guys but I was the one who always protected her. Even though she was older and stronger, I was stronger emotionally and could withstand twice the pain she could due the bullying I had undergone since I started going to school. For some reason kids didn't like me. I also had more guy friend's then girl friend's and that's why girl's hated me. They say that girl's are petite creature's but they can turn into evil monsters without mercy. One time I was beaten till I lost consciousness because some girl's didn't like how Haru-kun smiled at me when he said 'good morning'. After I heard the reason, which I found very stupid I laughed at them for being angry about such little things. No matter how many times I explained that me guy friend's were only friend's the girls never understood it. So that's how my life has been until my parent's died and my sister went missing. When the funeral was over I was offered to stay at Natsumi's place but I declined. I thought I had to face it alone and not involve other's. I then went to open up the udon shop. When all the customers were gone I sat down by a table. There weren't many customers that day so I didn't have to pretend like everything was okay all the time. I actually burst into tears every time there was no one in the shop. But this time I didn't have the energy to cry. I just laid my head in my arms on the table and rested. Until someone came in. The guy was pretty tall and handsome. He wore butler's clothing and his every move looked very graceful. I looked up at him.
