Hikaru turned to her master a finger on her lips, telling him to shut up as her sister asked a lot of questions from the other line. Thankfully, Tsukishima wasn't such an ass to endanger her even more so he grumbled and stayed quiet.

"...That was the TV Nee-chan. I was watching a series..." she couldn't think of any lame excuse except this cliché one. Wishing that it would actually work.

"You better make sure that you're doing a great job there Hikaru. Or else I'll come and personally drag you back to Tokyo ,Hikaru." she warned sternly, before dropping the call without further ado. Hikaru pursed her lips after hearing those words from her sister.

She didn't want to admit that her sister is slowly changing. Konami's getting too obsessed with the idea of getting famous and Hikaru didn't want to admit that she is no longer the same sister she loved. The younger female didn't know that Konami planned to dispose of her, and as soon as possible.

Hikaru snapped out of her trance when a certain blonde clicked his tongue from behind. "The movie, busu. Play the movie already tsk" he rolled his eyes and crossed his arms. The girl nodded and did as he says before sitting back next to him.

As the movie progresses, Tsukishima couldn't help but look at his servant, staring intently at the table. "Oi" he called her out, seeing how she flinched proved that she was indeed in deep thought. "What did she say?" asked the blonde.

Hikaru hummed in confusion, "What did your sister say?" Tsukishima grumbled before repeating his question.

The girl blinked a few times, doubting whether to tell him or not. But nevertheless, she spoke up, not wanting her master to get angry. "...she said I should do my job better, or she'll be coming here personally..." Hikaru couldn't help but let out a heavy sigh as she pulled her legs closer, embracing it. This is one of her coping mechanisms whenever she feels to emotional, and right now her feelings are getting too problematic.

That was the first time Konami had spoken to her like that. It was like she's just another staff to her, and it hurt Hikaru deeper than she thought.

Tsukishima pushed his glasses up along his nose bridge and turned his body a bit to face his servant, "And that job is keeping the whole sibling thing a secret? Isn't that just plain stupid?" said the blonde.

Hikaru knew all too well that the plan from the start is stupid. She didn't even know how it would affect her sister's career if she publicised her existence. Konami would always say that she'd get in trouble all the time and would be targeted by the media. And of course, as the younger one, she listened to whatever shit her sister spouted. "...Nee-chan raised me up all by herself goshujin. This is all I can do to make it up to her..." Hikaru mumbled, still in the same position, her eyes fixed on the movie playing on the screen.

Her master laughed, "For all I know, she sent you here to keep you from getting all the spotlight" Tsukishima said, trying to put things about her story together. The boy never bothered asking more about her secret, well, not until now. "Where are your parents?" he asked.

Hikaru flinched from his question, staying silent for few seconds before answering, "...gone... Nee-chan's the only family I have left..." she trailed off.

"Heh" the boy scoffed, "Quite the martyr, huh?" he said, giving the girl a bored look.

"Staying out of her way is the least I could do" for some reason, her voice was loud and clear as she answered. She got out of her sulking position and looked at the boy in front of her.

"She's taking credit for the songs you sing" replied the blonde, staring at her.

"I know"

"She's using you like a tool"

"I know"

"Your sister probably saw as a bother that's why she sent you here in Miyagi"

Hikaru stopped, taken aback of her master's words. Yes. That's what she always thought every time she wanted to find answers for herself. But at the same time, she stopped, even though the reasons her sister always give her are scratched and used up, that's the truth she decided to accept. "I know" her voice sounded rather sad as she spoke.

Tsukishima quickly took notice of this. He had been spending a lot of time but today is the day she shown faces different from her usual expression. He was starting to think his servant is a robot, but seeing her now just proved him wrong again. The blonde sighed and got up from his seat, "Get up busu" he ordered the female. "Oi, I said get up from there, are you deaf?" Tsukishima added and grabbed her wrist to pull her up.

His actions left Hikaru confused, "...where are we going..?" she asked, as she followed Tsukishima to the front door. Hikaru grabbed her set of keys and jacket as quickly as she can, and followed her master who just left.

After closing the door, Hikaru fixed her shoes and ran after the blonde walking away hurriedly. "...goshujin, where are we going..?" Hikaru asked again earning a glare from the boy.

"Stop asking, it's annoying" grumbled the blonde and grabbed her by the hand again, "Hurry up" he urged and started picking up the pace. Not caring what people might say seeing their intertwined hands.

Hikaru usually wouldn't care less but somehow, right here in this very moment, the way he held her hand tightly made the female happy for a bit. He's getting a bit nicer to me, she thought—

"Stop spacing off and move those short legs busu" 

The female could only shake her head hearing her master's words. But still, the heavy feeling in her heart lingered.
