Chapter 1

"Don't forget about me okay.." he wrapped his arms around my neck and pulled me close to him. I couldn't say a single word because I was too devastated him leaving me. "I promise I'll come and see you again one day." he ran his small hand through my dark hair. I bit my lower lip and started to sobs.

"Well I have to go now. Nice meeting you these past few days.." he pulled away and stared at my face. He leaned in until our nose brushed against each other. "I like-"

"Young Master please get up." I jolted as the sudden light shine directly at me. I groaned and pulled the blanket over me. "Shinya.. you've ruined my dream." I said and he chuckled. "Let me guess, it's about your first crush again?" he stated and I quickly sit up on my comfy bed. "N-no! We're just friends." I denied which Shinya clearly knew I was lying. He walked towards my cupboard and picked out my attire for today.

I rolled up on my comfy bed and thought about the dream I just had. It's not a dream actually, it happened when I was 12 years old. I couldn't remember his face that much but what I do know that he only stayed for couple of days before he went back home. He said he'll come back but.. I furrowed by eyebrows. He didn't come to see me even once since then. I buried my face on my pillow and I felt Shinya tapped my shoulder.

"Young Master time to get ready." he said in a soothing tone. I looked up at him frowned. "How many time do I have to tell you not to call me that. You're like family to me. Heck you raised me when Guren out of town for months or years." I grumbled and he smiled tenderly. "Yes yes now get up and get ready." he said and I got up and get ready. As Shinya was about to get out from my room, he turned to looked at me with a serious expression. He didn't do that look that much but when he does, the matter is most likely to be very important.

"On dinner time, you'll be having a serious talk with your parent. Make sure you make a wise decision Yuu. Don't end up like me. Follow your heart." he said and closed the door behind him leaving me feeling confused.

*Later that night

I don't get what Shinya meant this morning. What he said made me uncomfortable and nervous as hell and keep on thinking about it. "Yuu. Do you think yourself as responsible man? To me you're not yet." Guren suddenly said and I glared at him. "Fuck you dad, I am responsible." I said and Mahiru lightly hit Guren's back with a huffed. "I'm sorry for that darling but what he meant was that we decided it's time for you to get engage." she smiled and I gaped. Was this what Shinya meant by important talk? Well it sure is.

"Why so sudden? I'm only 21 mom. And if I were to get engage, with who? I don't have any women that were flocking over me." I asked. "Honey, you are old enough-" "and not responsible" Guren butted in and I glared at him which he only shrug. "Ignore him darling, he's just not ready to let you go." she giggled and he rolled his eyes. "And we decided for you to get engage with Akane." my mom clasp her hands together. "Akane? Akane Lida? You gotta be kidding me mom. She's 5 years younger than me and she's not even legal yet." I stated and she shook her head. "That's not going to be a problem. She's okay with it. Besides she likes you since she first met you."Mahiru tried to convince me but that's not going to happen.

"She's like a sister to me. I don't want to marry with anyone and that's that." I slammed my hand on the dining table and the maids flinched who were standing behind my parent. Even I'm surprised by my own action because never in my whole life let out my anger towards my mother. Not even once. I looked at my mom who has a disappointment expression and Guren seems to expected me to burst. "It's already been decided. If you're not going to do it then we will search for another woman for you to get engage with. You can't run." Guren closed his eyes and sighed. "I thought you're not ready for me to get engage Guren." I said. "It's your mother's wish." he stated and I clenched my hands into fists. "I'm going out to get some fresh air outside." I walked out of the dining area and closed the door.
