It's been a week since summer ended. We have decided to take a different path from each other. I, for example, decided to live a bit far away from my friends. Kousuke and Marry now live under one roof, of course, with two bedrooms. Shuuya found a slightly cheap apartment to stay at. Momo and Shintaro stayed at their house. I forgot to mention, Hiyori, Ene, Ayano-nee and Konoha got their bodies back. Ene wanted us to call her Ene even though she was Takane Enomoto in the past and Konoha was actually Haruka Kokonose when he was alive. By the way, even after what happened, we retained our abilities. The reason for that remains unknown up to this day.

I, Kido Tsubomi, have decided that maybe it was a good idea to be separated from everyone else… or so I thought.

My phone went missing after I rode the train, looking for a job so that I can feed myself three times a day. Ever since then, I have lost contact with everyone. 10 days after we went our separate ways and 7 days after I lost my phone, a certain family accepted me in their home.

It all started when I visited the spot where my former house was. You see, 10 years ago, my father decided to burn our house down after his company went bankrupt. I was standing in front of what used to be the gate of that same house. A man walked towards me as I turned my back to see who it was.

He introduced himself as a friend of my father's, a childhood friend at that. His name was Hizashi Masato. He told me that my father wasn't cruel at all when they were younger. He just changed after earning heaps of cash, having his family borrow money from him non-stop and not paying what they borrowed to him. He got furious and decided to never be generous again. I was shocked to hear his story but then what shocked me more was when he offered me to stay with him and his family after he found out that I was the second daughter of Kido.

After roughly 3 months, I was able to pass the written exams given to me by a private tutor. The family didn't bother sending me to a high school because I told them I'd rather not. What I learned wasn't about 2nd year high school material; it was about business and whatnot. Amazingly, I didn't think I would be able to pull it off. The tutor said I could own my own company at the age of 16. At first, I didn't believe him but afterwards, I found out he was right.

After just a year of hard work, I was able to put up a big company. People found out that the owner of a small restaurant was actually Kido's daughter so many invested in my restaurant until it grew to be a company, having hundreds of branches around Japan. I had to borrow money from Hizashi for the capital and he happily gave me what I needed. Sounds too good to be true, but it did happen.

I'm now living separately from them. They were hesitant to let me go but then Hizashi added that I have my own life so who was he to stop me? He has a son who was 5 years older than I am. His name was Mikoto. He now works under me as an accountant. We became close friends and the people at the office knew about it.

At present, I'm walking towards my apartment door, ready to throw myself on my bed out of exhaustion. I opened the door and as I turned it, I heard a light click sound, indicating that it was unlocked. I slowly opened the door and opened the lights, the switch located just on the right side of the wall. I looked around my small home, from the bedroom door to the laundry room. Owning a big company, I had to live like a professional at least. I can afford it, so why not, right?

"Clean… but empty…" I uttered under my breath since it really did feel lonely. I kind of miss my friends' rowdiness. I went straight to my room to get changed into my sleeping attire. I was too tired to even dip myself in my bathtub so I didn't. I sat on my bed and sighed deeply. I took my new phone from my bag and flipped it open. I browsed my contacts list, only to find the contacts of my co-workers, some clients and high-end company owners like myself and let's not forget the family that took me in for a while. Losing my old phone means losing the dan's contacts. I have never felt to sad in my entire life. They can't contact me as I to them.

I put my phone on top of my drawer and wrapped myself with my blanket as I started to doze off.

The next day, I woke up in a rush because I know I was going to be late. Maybe they'll let me go. It's my birthday after all. I thought something like that but I rushed to the bathroom and showered before going back to my room to get dressed. I left my apartment in a hurry and was greeted by my neighbor, who was an old lady.

"Good Morning, Kido-chan."

I replied to her but I didn't have the time to stop and greet her properly. I think she heard my morning greeting due to the smile I saw on her face. 15 minutes was the minimum time needed to get from my apartment to the office building. Since I was running late, I need to get there within 5 minutes, which was nearly impossible even if I ran.

I huffed and puffed, and then looked up, only to see a gold plated logo of my company, Tsudo Company. I entered through the automated door and was greeted by a couple of security guards.

"Happy Birthday Ms. Kido."

It was pretty much like that until I reached my office. Everyone knew my birthday because the Human Resource department would always send out birthday notices to everyone monthly. They had to know my birthday. I'm their boss after all. It's not like I required them. It's just how it is. We all treat each other as family. They're still a bit cautious though. I'm the 17 year— I mean, 18 year old General Manger. They trust me enough to follow my instructions and continue to work for me.

I sat on my chair and before I knew it, I heard a knock on my door. He peeked a bit after opening the door a little.

"Tsubomi?"


Yeah! My first Kagerou Project multi-chap!

Tell me if you're waiting for chapter 2 okay? Please R & R~~
