Chapter 1

xxxxxThe Meetingxxxxx

Life is truly unpredictable. You never know what might happen in just a blink of an eye. A second could change everything, a change that can be for the better or for the worst. Sometimes these changes can cause you so much pain and sometimes it may lead to new opportunities. Life moves in mysterious ways, so we need to be always prepared.

Two different people with different lives, can they still meet both ends? Could destiny be a tool to unite them together or it may be the opposite of tearing them apart.

It was a busy morning in the Imadori mansion. Young Kyousuke got out of his bed early to prepare for a special day. As usual he did his daily routine and went to his closet to reach for a black suit and a red cravat which perfectly matches his golden hair. He looked so clean and elegant as he went down stairs to meet with his parents.

"Ready dear?" Mrs. Imadori placed her hands on the lad's shoulders. Kyousuke gave his mother a sigh." Remember just be yourself and don't be nervous" Mrs. Imadori advised her seven-year old son.

"What if she hates me?" Kyousuke gave her mother a worried face.

"Who would hate a fine boy like you? You're smart, cute and most of all you have a charisma to make anyone smile" Mr. Imadori giving his son a pat on the head and a smile.

"Are you sure she won't hate me?" the golden haired boy still queried.

"Of course she won't dear" His mother held his face and gave him a kiss on the forehead.

The Imadori family is one of the top company owners in Japan. Kyousuke is an only son and the heir of the Imadori Corporation. As a member of an elite family his future was already secured including his married life. (Too young isn't it)

ooOOoo

Outside the mansion, a sound of a car broke the discussion and gave Kyousuke the feeling of having butterflies in his stomach. He held both his parents' hands and went outside to the black limousine which was parked at the entrance. As the door was opened he saw a bright light. It slowly faded and a saw a little girl in a below the knee pink waffled dress. She wore pink doll shoes and had a shoulder length dark green hair. Beside her is a tall man wearing a long gray coat and neatly black ironed pants that goes so well with his black leathered shoes. Mr. and Mrs. Imadori approached and greeted them while little Kyousuke got flabbergasted at the corner, looking with his azure eyes at the dark green haired girl.

"Hi there" the dark green haired girl approached and greeted the lad on the corner.

Kyousuke came to his senses and greeted back the girl in front of him. "Hi"

His cheeks burnt red as he said those two letters.

All of them came inside the mansion and settled themselves in a large living room. It has a red velvet carpet and a pearl white soft couch with a finely engraved design. The room gave an atmosphere of nostalgia because of the detailed made sculptures. It also has large paintings of famous painters which completes the aura of the room.

Mr. Ichijou spoke and presented his daughter, Karen Ichijou, to the family. The Ichijou's are not as rich as the Imadori's but they do own a lot of properties. They own lots of properties and have many farmlands. Since Mr. Imadori is a close friend of Mr. Ichijou, they've arranged the marriage of their children. So at the age of seven, Kyousuke is already engaged to Karen.

"My name is Karen Ichijou "Karen introduced herself and gave everyone a sweet smile.

"Hello Karen" Mrs. Imadori shook her hand

"Karen, what a nice name" Mr. Imadori gave her an overwhelming smile.

Mrs. Imadori asked Kyousuke to introduce himself. The golden haired boy stood in front and nervously spoke.

"Good morning. My name is Kyousuke Imadori" the young lad put his left hand at the back and crossed his fingers.

"My, Oh my, you've grown into a fine young boy" Mr. Ichijou looked at Imadori's azure eyes.

'Thank you sir" Kyousuke replied

"And polite too. I'm sure you'll be a great man someday and a perfect partner for my daughter." Mr. Ichijou complemented.

Kyousuke's cheeks turned scarlet because of Mr. Ichijou's praises.

"Why don't both of you play in the garden and get to know each other" Mrs. Imadori suggested as she was blinking secretly at her son.

"Go on Karen, it would be fun" Mr. Ichijou insisted on her daughter.

The two children went outside. Kyousuke guided Karen to the garden and Karen followed suit. When they reached the place, it was beautifully decorated with different flowers. The place was very peaceful and pleasant. The vibrant colors of the flowers emit a blissful feeling and the breeze was quite refreshing. Butterflies wander everywhere. It was like they're in paradise.

"This is my mother's garden" the lad entertained and toured Karen all over the place but Kyousuke seems to notice that Karen was quiet and has a frown on her face.

He quickly gathered flowers and put it into bundles, and then he gave it to Karen to cheer her up. As Karen accepted the flowers for some reason the smell irritated her nose and made her sneeze.(Hachuu!!) Karen fell on the ground. Kyousuke stretched his hand to help her stand up but instead of raising her, he fell and both of them lied on the ground. Suddenly they burst into laughter.

Kyousuke stared as Karen laughed. Her innocent face made him blushed like a ripe tomato. He felt very happy when he made Karen laugh. They're first meeting wasn't that bad after all and he thought that they might be good friends in the near future.

"You're pretty interesting Kyousuke" Karen continued chuckling.

"I know that's my talent" the golden-haired boy chuckled and blushed.

Both of them were covered in petals and lying on the ground.

As the two children returned to the living room, the young lad noticed that the frown in the dark haired girl's face returned.

Karen's father called her and talked to her. After which her father waved goodbye to her. As Karen's chestnut eyes witnessed her father leaving, she didn't shed a tear. Mrs. Imadori went beside Karen and held her left hand as they sent off her father. Kyousuke didn't know what was happening but he felt sad seeing Karen that way.

Karen's father needs to go overseas because of work, so he'll be leaving Karen in the hands of the Imadori's for a while.

Kyousuke approached Karen and gave her a white handkerchief.

"I won't be needing that" Karen returned the handkerchief given to her.

"I didn't say that you'll need it now. Keep it, you'll be needing it later" Kyousuke insisted the handkerchief to Karen.
