Chapter 1: Knowing Myself or Ourselves rather… Eh? Not only Me?
"Kriiiing!" The clock rang loudly that it covered the atmosphere of the whole room. Nishikado Sojiro, who is now half-awake, scratched his eyes lightly for morning glory. He realized what's yesterday. It was like any other day. Waking up in the morning with a fully-naked girl at his side and sleeping at night after the heat of undressing another girl he shared his passionate touches without even remembering her name. What a whore is he and he had always known that. He had believe that even he'll runaway from it, he could never do it successfully because it was genetically passed from his father. Rich playboy father and son, they are.
"Good morning, bye bye." Sojiro bid farewell to his girl for the night and quickly dressed up. As he was doing it, he wondered what will be his life if he was a faithful boyfriend to his girl who'll take the relationship seriously. "I'd be awesome then, huh?" He answered to his imagination. He imagined further as he walked out the motel. He thought of a guy who'd be punctual at dates and would be a gentleman to his girlfriend, such as being the one who'd spread out the chair for her to sit at their dine in or one who'd open the car door for his girl while his heart beats faster. "Faithfulness and monogamy, that is." He uttered
Meanwhile, Mimasaka Akira took a glimpse at his wrist watch and it said 8:15 am. He was standing tall and dressed manly. It was obvious to his clothing that he is a wealthy man. It was believed by him that clothing and his soft but still manly skin is the reason why girls, ahem, women would easily cling to him up to bed. Anyway, he just came home after being with a girl at a rich hotel he had a V.I.P. pass. Yes, his routine was like Sojiro's but his reason why he came to be one isn't like his. He had his own though no one knew it except the other F3 and Tsukushi together with her bestfriend Yuki, whom he have some developing affections though he took it lightly because she and Sojiro are somewhat in the process of mutual understanding even he know Sojiro isn't totally serious at all.
"Brother!" His sisters Emu and Memu called out. No doubt they missed their brother. Though not everyone believed, he is a caring man. He knew how to value relationships like that though the only thing that was left for him to know was the relationship with other women. He had always taken it unseriously. "How have you been, princesses?" He asked as he hugged them. "We are waiting for our prince and now he had come!" They excitedly informed him. "Really?" he asked as he released them as he saw his mother from one corner of his eye. "Mama!" Akira greeted happily his mother. "Akira! Do you want some cookies?" she asked. "Later." He excused. His mother's cookies were the worst one he had ever tasted but he made sure that he'll be as excited as the kids in tasting it. He never wanted to hurt her feelings. That's how he valued them. After that, he hurried to his bedroom.
"As expected, home is the best place." He praised as he laid his back on the silk fabrics of the huge king-size bed. "But nothing can beat her heart. It should always be the best place I'll ever have." He added as he face the ceiling. He thought of no one but her, Matsuoka Yuki.
That time, Yuki was getting ready for school. She's now a graduating college student at a not-so-prestigious school with the course business management. She decided to take this course after being inspired by how big the four biggest organizations are in the whole world. She had always dreamed of being highly financial status holder by the age of thirty with the help of his future husband. Speaking of which, she had options before. It has always been Nishikado or Mimasaka fighting for the spot.
"I'll be going." She bid goodbye to her parents as she headed on the door. She walked with her favorite light blue sweater Nishikado Sojiro had given her for Post Christmas/New Year as a replacement for his absence. It's okay for her because Mimasaka Akira was the one who welcomed the New year at the high establishment of the five-star hotel his family had the biggest share. The only legal business they'd been running, actually. She remembered that day and would never ever forget it because it was the first time she welcomed the year with a first kiss and instead of the words 'Happy New Year!', he said 'I love you.' She almost fell out of balance for the giggles she's feeling as she remembered that day.
Though that already happened, it was never clear for her why did that happen because Mimasaka is still going out with different women during his night life. Upon learning that, she sighed. She really didn't know and she doesn't have a clue why he said those words to her at this point.
As she walked to her way for her school, someone covered her eye and her nose with a handkerchief.
