"Sawara-san? You said you have an urgent job for me?" asked kyoko after coming to a sudden stop in front of Sawara-san's desk nearly demolishing it. "Yes! Mogami-kun. President had personal request for you as a Love Me job. "Huh! A Love Me job? Wonder what's he up to this time???" mumbled Kyoko while on the way up to the President's floor. The elevator dinged the floor that is President's Suite. As soon as the elevator door opened, all the Kyoko could see was a waft of smoke coming to the elevator. "Eh! Is the President on fire?" wondered Kyoko mindlessly and then realized what she just thought, and shook her head violently.
She took a whiff and recognized the distinct scent of patchouli, frankensense, and myrrh. Then, she heard a din coming from the President's office. Is that an erhu? No way? Kyoko hesitantly walked into the office of the flashest man in the history of the Japanese entertainment history. As she walked deeper into the office, she definitely is hearing classical chinese music. The music can be distinguished by the melancholic longing of the erhu, the impatient staccato of the hand symbols, the serenely caress of the gujin, and the melodic laughter of the pipa.
The president was sitting on a antique chinese lounge chair that looks big enough to fit two person, but it was meant to be big enough for one person to take a nap on. "Ah! Mogami-kun. Just the girl I need for this important errands. If you haven't arrived, I would have personally come look for you. In fact, let's just say I would compel you to make this your priority for the next two weeks." said Lory Takarada, the Eccentric. At this moment, this man whom is actually quite hot looking for a wrinkly old man, is wearing nothing, nothing at all. You got to be kidding, right! Yes. You're right. If President is naked, then you wouldn't be reading this. Because, Kyoko would have been in jail for assault for beating Lory Takarada into the ground, while screaming something about corrupting the minds of innocent high school girls. Of course, she would also be screaming something about she wants her innocence back, too.
Uhm hmm! But, I digress. At this moment, the very handsome eccentric man, that is known as Lory Takarada is wearing a chang pao in black china polished silk with dark grey cloud swirls, a pair of red silk pants of the same design with pink swirls, followed by a pair of traditional chinese boots and a melon cap in black with purple brim. For this ocassion, he even had his hair braided into a pig tail that trailed down his back. "President? What is the ocassion that is so important that only I can take care of it and not Moko, too." puzzled Kyoko. "Ah, Mogami-kun. Today is Chinese New Year. I just wanted to celebrate it like they would? Do you know that Chinese New Year last two weeks long and on leap years it lasts three months long." said the overexcited president of LME, Inc. "Oh! How exciting?" said Kyoko with embarassment mark all over her face.
"But, I didn't call you in to show off my outfits. I called you in because I need your specialty in cooking." said Lory handing Kyoko a thick 3-inch binder. Kyoko looked closely at the binder, and read "Operation: Make People Fall In Love With Love". "Heh!" Kyoko said out loud. "Yes! Mogami-kun. I need your special touch to help me this Valentine's Day, to make all of the LME, Inc fall in love with love." said Lory Takarada with a serious face. He's actually really serious about this strange plan of his, wondered Kyoko, practically out loud. "And, with the Chinese New Year as the first day of plan of execution, it's perfect." Lory Takarada got excited all over again with his idea. "Now, take this binder with you. Read it over and I want to start the project right away."
Kyoko picked up the heavy nearly 15 pound binder and started to walk away. "Wait! Mogami-kun! You need your new uniform." said the President. Kyoko got pretty scared cause the last time he said that, it led to her in this unforgettable retina burning pink uniform. Kyoko turned around nervously. There is a real nail biting suspense hanging in the air. The President snapped his fingers a couple of times, and a couple of servants wheeled into the room with a covered clothes rack. Lory unzipped the zipper in the middle and revealed a chef's uniform.
Kyoko's eyes burned with the image of her brand new uniform. For the first time, she realized that her Love Me uniform was really good comparing to what was glowing with radioactivity on the clothes rack. The chef's uniform is pink, not just any ordinary pink. But, the same kind of pink as a stomach medicine bottle. It remind her of a certain laconic cartoon cat that she used to watch on TV in her childhood, the few times the Okami-san of the ryokan she stayed at would let her watch TV with Sho.
"Oh, and Mogami-kun!" said the President in a singsong voice. What now, Kyoko screamed in her head. As if it's not bad enough already. "You are to meet with the kitchen staffs of the LA Hearts to revamp the menu for Valentine's Day." Kyoko turned her most vicious looks she could possibly give a anyone on earth on full blast and aim it along with all of her grudges at the President. Unfortunately, the pink heart shaped aura the President of LME is causing the killing vibe and the grudges to bounce off him.
Kyoko collapse to the ground in defeat. "Okay! You win!" said one very dejected Love Me section employee named Kyoko Mogami. "Oh, and also, you are going to hand out handmade chocolates to everyone of LME, along with a note that says "handmade with love from me to you, Kyoko". Kyoko fainted after letting out a loud 5 minutes long scream that blast out all the windows for the next three floors below her.
