Ever since the day he was born, Kyoya was decided that he had to be the best. He had to be better than all his brothers. He couldn't just be at the top in the class. Kyoya had to be at the top of the world.
But of course, even that still wouldn't please his father.
Kyoya sighed, putting on his uniform. Another day sure to be full of lectures, he thought, walking down the marble steps. His hand stroked the ivory railing, giving him shivers. Once when he was little, he decided to have some fun, and slid down them from the top. His father immediately saw him and whipped him with a belt. The memory was so strong, the whipping was still tangible.
He walked into the dining room to see only his father at the table. He seemed very intrigued in the paper he was reading. Kyoya stood up straight and tall. His father put down the paper and looked right into his youngest son's eyes. His expression was the same as usual; disappointed in his son, no matter what he did.
"Kyoya," Master Ootori said. His voice boomed throughout the entire estate, even though it was only the two there, besides the maids. "The Chairman of your school, Suoh, told me there were two new students coming today. I want you to make the first appearance to them. I've heard they were commoners, so be polite and offer them many things. Understand?"
Kyoya nodded and walked out the door. Two commoners? Well, it didn't seem like much to Kyoya, but he had to obey his father. Would he always?
