"Yuuki-san, I have to hold your arm. Is that alright?" Maki asked as they arrived at the hall. "Of course that's fine." Kaiyo said and Maki nodded and grabbed onto her arm. "Your friends will go in first then we'll go in shortly after." Maki's father said and they nodded. "Has Toru already gone in?" Kaiyo asked and he nodded. "Alright. How are my parents?" She asked and the man smiled at her. "Always straight to the point. They're fine. They should be waking up any day now and have fully recovered." He said and Kaiyo nodded. "Was this what you needed to tell me on the terrace?" Kaiyo asked and he nodded. "I thought that your uncle would walk in with us but I guess not. Please try your best to enjoy tonight to your fullest." He said and Kaiyo nodded.

"Yuuki-san please relax. You look like you're about to burst." Maki said looking at Kaiyo with a worried expression. "I'm sorry Nishikino-san. I usually come to events like these with my parents." Kaiyo said looking at the ground. "It's alright. I get that you're nervous." Maki said and Kaiyo noticed a large man walk up to them with her uncle. "Kaiyo I want you to meet Roman Volkov. You'll be seeing him a lot around the estate since he'll be attending university here in Japan for the next four years starting in spring." Toru said and Kaiyo nodded. "It's nice to meet you Roman-san." She said holding out her hand. "He isn't very good at Japanese yet but he speaks Russian so you should be able to communicate with him still." He said and Kaiyo nodded. "Would you like me to get Eli? She's fluent in Russian." Maki asked and Kaiyo held up her hand. "It's alright." She said without looking at her. "It's nice to meet you Roman." Kaiyo said and the Blonde boy smiled and nodded. "It's nice to meet you to Kaiyo. I hope that we get along well. Might I ask your age?" Roman asked. "I'm ten years old but I'm a senior in high school. I understand that you're starting university in spring?" Kaiyo asked and Roman nodded. "I was allowed to finish my schooling early in Russia. I'm sixteen years old." He said and Kaiyo nodded. "If you'll excuse me, It seems that more people want to talk to me. Again, it was nice to meet you." She said and excused herself and walked to the group of girls in the corner. 

"Looks like you two are having fun." Nozomi said smiling. "Oh please. Where's Sonoda-san?" Kaiyo asked sitting down at the table. "Umi-chan is apart of the Sonoda clan and someone recognized her." Kotori said and Kaiyo nodded. "The Sonoda clan isn't very big but it very strong." She said and Umi came back. "Welcome back. Did you have fun?" Kotori asked and Umi sighed and sat down. "Very stressful? You look like someone who would avoid events like this, Sonoda-san." Kaiyo said and Umi nodded. "My parents and older brother usually come to these events but since Maki invited me they didn't come." She said and saw someone walking up. "Excuse me." He said looking at Kaiyo. "Can I help you with something?" Kaiyo asked standing up. "I was wondering if I could have this dance? It would be an honer to dance with someone so talented as you." He said holding out his hand. "I'm sorry. I came here with a partner tonight so it'll be very rude to dance with someone else without her permission." She said and looked at Maki. "Oh that's true. I beg your pardon Yuuki-san, Nishikino-san." He said and walked up to Maki. "Would you mind if I take your partner to the dance floor tonight?" He asked and Maki glanced at Kaiyo, who was shaking her head no. "I'm sorry but Kaiyo has yet to dance with me. It's common courtesy to dance with your partner first before anyone else." Maki said and the man nodded. "Of course. I did not realize that you two were so close as to be so familiar with each other. Maybe we could establish some kind of relationship as well since it'll be better for both of our families." He said smiling, surprising the girls. 

"I'm sorry but you're the first son of the Yashiko family correct. If I remember correctly, you have a fiancee. I don't think you'll like this to get to her and cause trouble for your family." Kaiyo said and the man looked at her. "It would be a problem if the heir to the Yashiko corporation was caught hitting on the heir to the Nishikino hospital at a banquet." She continued and the man walked away after excusing himself. "How did you know that he's the first son of the Yashiko corporation?" Maki asked and Kaiyo shrugged. "I don't forget a face or name. Especially if it's with this world." She said and Maki's father walked up with a worried face. "Yuuki-san it's your parents." He said and Kaiyo's expression changed to one of worry. "What about them? Are they alright?" She asked. "The team that's in charge of them had just called." He said and Kaiyo started to sweat bullets. "You don't need to worry about them not waking up anymore. Both of them have woken up just a few minutes ago." He said and Kaiyo looked at him surprised. "They're alright?" She asked and Maki noticed Kaiyo starting to shake. "Yuuki-san please sit down." She said guiding Kaiyo to a table. "I can ready a car for you so that you can do see them if you'll like." Mr. Nishikino said and Kaiyo nodded. "What's wrong with my niece? Why does she look pale?" Toru asked walking up. "It's nothing sir please go enjoy the banquet." Mr. Nishikino said. "Kaiyo what's wrong with you? I told you to not cause trouble." Toru said and Kaiyo looked up at him. "You will not talk to her like that. Show respect for the head of your clan." Mirai said stepping in front of him. "You little bitch. What do you know?" Toru said and tried to push her out of the way. 

"I am Aida Mirai. I serve the head of the Yuuki clan. You will not talk to Kaiyo in that manner as long as I'm alive."
