Asuza enters the living room, slamming a boquet of flowers down the table. "Failed again right?" You sigh, cutting your nails. "This is the fifth time already." Asuza is your older step brother. Your mom remarried because she couldn't raise you alone. She wanted the best for you. Well, you had a crush on Asuza for five years now and still counting. It was hard for you to contain your feelings but you have to. He was the upcoming CEO of Mukami Corporation and he needs to find a wife fast. Sadly, you couldn't be one. Who would marry a family member? But you weren't related by blood.
"Say (First Name), if I can't ever find a wife, will you be my wife?"
"What? That's stupid Asuza. We're siblings. It would be incest."
"Ahh, that maks sense."
Oh how much you want to tell him, "Yeah, I would love to marry you." But doing so would just cause mischief, not to you but to the family. "Good night (First Name). I'll try again tomorrow." You wave your hand, indicating that you were saying good bye as you weren't finished cutting your nails yet. By the time you were finished, you lean your head back and muttered, "I wish I can."

A new day and a new start for Asuza. He was going to try again until he found a wife. He was walking around the streets, finding for a girl that likes him at first glance. He didn't care anymore. He may had a pissed off look while walking but that made him more attractive. Nobody dared approach him because they knew he was the heir to a very famous and important company. He caught a glimpse of (Hair Color) hair. It caught his eye and decided to follow.
Taking a lot of turns, he manage to finally catch up with the girl. "I'm Asuza. Can we get married?" He asks. "Yes." Was the reply, after that was a huge laugh. "Is that how you ask for your wife?" You kept on laughing, clutching your stomach from the pain. "(First Name)?" He was confused. "You said yes?"
"Of course I did but God forbids it."
"Why?"
"Aren't we siblings?"
"Not by blood."
"Still. Mother won't allow."
You face away from him, looking at the bright sky. "Then let's run away." He offers his hand. "What?" You look at him like he was crazy. "What would Dad say about you running away? He would have no successor."
"Isn't your feelings for me more important?"
"What?! How did you know?"
"I've known for three years."
"But why keep quiet?"
"Because I wasn't sure about my feelings yet."
"And...?"
"Now, I do."
You were too shocked. There were a lot of emotion mixed up with your current ones. "So I'll ask again." He clears his throat. "Will you run away with me?" He asks. "As much as I want to, we can't." You sigh. "Well, I have no choice now." Asuza carries you like a sack onto his shoulders. A lot of people were watching the scene but that was the least of Asuza's worries.
