The two businessmen shook hands once more, "Thank you for the meal." Mr. Akamine says.
"It's my pleasure."
Their children entered the restaurant seeing their fathers with genuine smiles on their faces.
"Zorome and I will get going." Mr. Hamada politely says.
They've bid their farewells and went in their private vehicles.
"Papa, I have invited Zorome to come over sometime, is that alright?" Miku mutters.
"Why, of course! You can have him over tomorrow."
She felt her heart race after her dad agreed, Miku barely has anyone to play video games with, besides people on the Internet, that is.
Before the meeting, she expected the typical situation of arranged marriages in movies. The heroine would be forced to marry someone who she doesn't find ideal, usually in physical terms.
I was in for a surprise.
Miku found him the slightest bit attractive, with his sharp features and piercing violet eyes, but not as much as the male main characters in shōjo animes.
She wanted to do this for the company, it's been hitting rock bottom for a while and the marriage can save it.
The tires screeched to a stop and Miku jumps out the car, sprinting inside their fairly big home.
"I need to clean up my room!" She quietly says. Miku runs upstairs and closes the door behind her.
She picks up clothes scattered on the floor, anything that would bring embarrassment to her and stuffs it in her closet. The carpeted ground was finally free of anything covering it. Outside the house, she has to be poised, behaved and neat, but inside, those standards no longer matter.
The very next morning, she got up with an unusual aura of eagerness. "It's a beautiful day." She chimed, opening the white, sheer curtains of her bay window.
With a skip in her step, Miku goes to the bathroom to prepare herself. She smears cleansing gel on her face, then washing that off to apply a hydrating cream, all as a part of her skincare routine. Staring at her reflection, she eases her tense body, takes a deep breath and throws on a comfortable hoodie, to keep her warm.
"You got this."
After a delicious breakfast, she went back to her room to finalize everything, when she heard her smartphone ringing.
Unknown Number
She takes the call anyway. "Hello? Who is this?"
"Uh, hi! this is Zorome. Your dad gave me your number before you left yesterday."
Papa sure loves taking chances.
"You can be here today, right?"
"Yep! I'm actually getting ready right now."
"Alright, see you then."
He hangs up and Miku lays two floor cushions, places bowls of various snacks and connects the two controllers to the console.
A loud 'ding' resonated across the house, it was the doorbell.
Zorome's here!
Miku runs down the stairs and slows down, in order to not show too much excitement.
The door clicks open, Miku sees a man much taller than Zorome. This one's wearing a red uniform with a matching cap.
"Pizza delivery!"
