A leisurely stroll through Ikebukoro after finishing up some work-related errands sounded like a perfect way for the info broker to end his day. The brisk night air feels refreshing on Manaki's skin. He admires the way the neon lights reflect on Risa's face, how colorful and absolutely divine she looks. It reminds him of the times when the two of them go out and take part in the city's nightlife. Every one of those moments are exhilarating; the energy she gives off intoxicates him and leaves him wanting more of her. Sometimes he gets so swept up in her charm that he has to have her in an alleyway or a bathroom stall. It's all so foreign to him, living like this. He's always been more interested in watching, but Risa's alluring presence draws him in and he feels like he's finally a part of the city.

Manaki's reverie ends abruptly when a tall blonde man exits the restaurant behind Risa. He sees the man take out a pack of cigarettes and ask Risa something. Manaki's fists clench and unclench in his pockets. He watches as she takes out a lighter and light Mizu's cigarette for him. The two of them talk, and Manaki visibly cringes when he hears Risa's loud laughter.

Risa shouldn't look so happy next to someone that isn't him. That kind of laughter should be reserved for time with Manaki only, not with him. Risa takes a drag off Mizu's cigarette.

Manaki watches Risa exhale the smoke, Risa's eyes looking up at where stars might be if the lights of the city hadn't chased them away. This wouldn't do. Risa's lips had touched something that had touched Mizu's lips. Disgusting.

Those lips belonged to Manaki and Manaki alone. He wants to intervene, to leave, to do anything to stop Risa from fraternizing with that loser. But he only watches. After what seems like hours but was barely 5 minutes, Mizu walks off with a wave, and Manaki hears Risa's sweet voice shout a "good night!" after him. Manaki restrains himself from following Mizu, or from punching a nearby telephone pole. No, he simply makes his way back to Shinjuku, takes a hot bath, and goes to sleep.

The next morning, Risa wakes up to a call from Manaki. She groggily answer, "H-hello?"

"Darling, would you mind coming over? Now?" Despite calling Her darling, he doesn't sound as calm as he usually does. There's an edge to his voice.

She yawns. "Manaki, I just woke up. Can it wait?"

His tone sounds even more stern, almost angry. "No. I need you over here. In 30 minutes, or you'll be punished."

Risa rolls her eyes, considering for a moment that punishment from Manaki might actually be fun. The tone in his voice worries her, though, so she gets ready as fast as she can in her tired state and go to Manaki's apartment.

He opens the door for Risa, his usual playful expression replaced by a serious one. Risa feels nervous as he wordlessly walks her over to the couch and sits down, seating himself on the opposite side. Mabaki crosses his legs and takes a long sip of the hot tea in front of him. He stares at risa for a bit in silence, and she nervously squirm in her seat, averting his gaze.

"Look at me." He's acting so cold and Risa feels her eyes prickling as they threaten to tear up. "I saw you last night with Mizunouske Habu." He doesn't even call him Mizu. He taps his fingers on his knee. "Is there anything you'd like to tell me, dear?" The venom in that last word stings.

Risa figured that Manaki might be the jealous type, what with how obsessive and possessive he tends to be with his interests. Risa didn't expect him to react with this much vitriol.
