White Day had always been a holiday that was not really to Mai's liking. She liked Valentine's Day, because she did things for others. But come White Day, the absence of a special someone all her own made Mai envy her friends. At first it had just been a casual "You're so lucky" moment. But now…..
Mai had someone that she liked. One Kazuya Shibuya, to be exact. Oh! It wasn't fair!! With his brilliant blue eyes, raven black hair, pale skin…. This description will take some time. Please feel free to listen to some music. …. She had fallen for him in a Tokyo on Sunday minute. That wasn't so bad. However, Mai was certain that she would never be anything more than his childish assistant. Tomorrow was White Day. How on earth would she survive?

As Mai had expected, her day had been filled with White Day gifts to thank her for the Valentines that she had given out. After school, Mai had to deal with an even longer trip to work than usual. The train that she usually took was having a portion of its track fixed, so she had to take two different trains to get to work. That made her a full hour and a half late. Naru, as she had nicknamed her narcissist boss, would be upset. Heck! SHE was upset!! Why wouldn't he be?
As Mai ran up the steps to the office, she could hear voices coming from inside. Listening hard, she was able to determine that they belonged to Naru, Monk-san, Ayako, Masako, John, Yasuhara, and Masako. There was an occasional few words from Lin-san, but Naru's Chinese assistant rarely said anything. Finally reaching the door, slightly out of breath from being stuck behind a group of cigar smokers that would only move at an inch per minute pace, Mai was quick to apologize for her lateness. "Hey Naru! Sorry I'm late. They were doing construction on my normal route, so I had to take two trains!" "Tea."
"Yes, sir!" Mai normally got angry at Kazuya's lack of manners, but she was so happy to be at the office, away from White Day, that she just let it go. Her day had been bad enough with out her stressing over Naru's insensitivity. "Hey Mai! Rough day? You looked like you wanted to break something when you first came in." Monk-san's observations were met with a death glare from Mai, as she set his customary iced coffee in front of him. "(gulp) Sorry I asked! I guess you don't like White Day much. I brought you something, to thank you for the Valentine's Day chocolates that you gave me. Maybe I should give it to you later." Mai's only answer was a nod, and her silence was beginning to bother the others. Monk-san and the others left their White Day gifts to Mai on her desk, out of the way of her rapidly moving pile of filing as she worked to get caught up.

It was late in the evening when Kazuya came out of his office. He expected to find only Lin, but was surprised, pleasantly so, to see Mai at her desk, finishing up the last of her filing. She looked up at him after finish the sentence that she had been writing. "Would you like some tea, Naru-chan?" "No." Mai shrugged and went back to work. Naru sat down in one of the chairs in the office. His sharp blue eyes watched Mai from over the edge of the day's newspaper. Mai's brown hair hung gently in the way of a clear view of her face, her brown eyes scanning the paper in front of her as she worked. Naru wondered if she disliked White Day because she was single. He had gotten her something, to thank her for the chocolates that she gave him on Valentine's Day. She would get it when she got home. He had arranged for two-dozen pink/yellow tulips to be delivered to her house at exactly 8 o'clock. Still, she looked as if she could use something to put a smile on her face. After all, she looked cute when she smiled at him. Mai sighed as she stood up and stretched a little. "Mai. Why don't we go get something to eat?" "Eh? Um, sure. That's fine with me." After dinner, Naru walked Mai to the train station. He walked one way, and she another. They reached their homes at the exact same moment. Suddenly, Mai's doorbell rang. "I'll need you to sign this." Bewildered, Mai signed for his delivery of two-dozen of her favorite flower. Inside was a card, written by Naru. Just thought I'd thank you a second time for the chocolate, Shibuya Kazuya. Mai smiled and spun around, still clutching the flowers as she danced around the house to 'Swan Lake'. She might have a prince after all!
