"Aniue…I mean Seiran are you going home already" the childish emperor asked.

"I told you to stop calling me that or else I'll use honorific titles" Shi Seiran replied.

Ryuuki sweat dropped and said "Hai"

"And, yeah, I'm going home. Ohjou-sama will be home by now and it's dangerous to let her be alone especially now she's an official" Seiran replied.

"Then can I go with you?" Ryuuki asked.

"You should finish you paper works right? Don't tell me you have Kouyou-sama and Ran-shogun to take care of it again?" Seiran asked.

"As a matter of fact His Majesty already finishes it" Ran Shuuei replied.

"Yeah, he's so excited to visit Shuurei-sama" Li Kouyou replied.

"Don't tell me you're coming too?" Ryuuki asked.

"Well we want to eat Shuurei-dono's cooking" Ran-shogun replied.

Ryuuki sighed and he thought he can finally have Shuurei by himself…

"Then we should really be going" Seiran replied.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

"So…"

"So…"

"So…"

"What are we going to do now?" Mokuren said finishing the sentence.

"Shuurei-sama promised that she'll let us stay here as long as we help her with the daily chores. But still it's pretty abusing her hospitality if we don't find a job soon…" Tsubaki said looking at the well polished room.

"I agree" Kikume replied.

"Then what should we do?" Yuri asked.

"First we must find a job" Mokuren replied.

"We still have some things with us…" Yuri said looking at the things that fell with them.

Yeah, some of their stuff fell with them…

The violin of Tsubaki and their school bags are with them.

"Sorry for making you wait…" Shuurei said brightly as she carried a dozen of manju.

"Wow, that smells really great" Kikume said.

"Really, Kikume you should not eat too much food or else you'll get fat" Yuri said laughing as Kikume nearly drooled at the food.

"Who cares about getting fat? I can't live without food literally" Kikume said as she eat her first manju.

The three followed.

"It's delicious" the three said in unison.

"Arigato" Shuurei smiled.

"The manju is not too sweet so that you can't get sick if you eat too much" Kikume said.

"And the steaming time is almost perfect!" she added.

"So tell me about yourselves" Shuurei replied.

"Uhmmm, where to begin?" Yuri asked.

"Yeah, we're high school students"

"High School Students?" Shuurei asked.

"Yes, I'm on my second year, Kikume is in her first year while Tsubaki-senpai and Mokuren-senpai are our seniors"

"Ahhh" Shuurei nodded.

Before they notice it they already drink all of the tea.

"I'll go and prepare some more" Shuurei smiled.

"I'll go and help" Kikume said energetically.

"That would be very helpful, Kikume-san" Shuurei replied.

"Then, I'll show you the kitchen"

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

"Wow, this sure is a large place!" Kikume exclaimed.

"It is but it's not really great" Shuurei said looking at the broken tiles of the floor.

Kikume smiled but said "This is your home right? I'm sure this place holds many memories for you Shuurei-sama"

"Yeah, it does"

"I don't really have many memories about our house because I seldom see my family. And because the mansion is so large I rarely see my siblings. They are like strangers to me" Kikume said.

"Kikume-san, your family is rich right?" Shuurei asked.

"As a matter of fact"

Shuurei smiled at her.

"This is the kitchen" Shuurei said.

"Wow" Kikume said.

Shuurei couldn't help being pleased by her naïve character.

"What can I do, Shuurei-sama?"

"Can you get the kettle on the top shelf?" Shuurei asked.

"Hai"

Kikume tried to reach the top shelf but with her height it seemed to be impossible.

So she jumped up to reach it.

Why do I have to be so small?

But….

"AHHHHH!"

"Kikume-san!"

Kikume lost her balance while landing and… she tripped.

Pushing Shuurei underneath her.

"AHHHHHH!" the two screamed.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Meanwhile…

"I'm home" Seiran said as he entered the manor.

Then he heard a loud crash.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

"Ohjou-sama!"

"Shuurei!"

The four ran to the kitchen where they saw a young girl pushing the princess of the Kou clan to the floor.

"I-Itai" Shuurei said.

"Wh-what are you doing?" Seiran asked bewildered.

Ryuuki's face can't be described.

Don't tell that Shuurei is a ………. He thought wildly.

"Kikume!" a voice yelled.

Then three exquisitely beautiful girls entered the room. The men couldn't help but to notice their outfits.

Especially Yuri and Tsubaki who has their slim legs shown.

"Kikume, are you alright!" the girl with the short skirt and blue hair said.

"My, we really shouldn't trust you with the kitchen" the girl with glasses said.

The purple haired sighed as the two helped the girl.

"I…I…I'm just trying to help!" the girl who was on top of Shuurei said. Her eyes are watering.

"Do…Don't cry…" Shuurei said standing up.

"Gomen Nasai, Shuurei-sama…" the purple haired girl replied.

They didn't notice the presence of the four handsome young men.

"There's nothing broken well…except…" Shuurei said looking at the broken dishes.

"Oh" the white haired girl said crying.

"You cry too easily, Kikume"

"Wh-who are they, Ohjou-sama?" Seiran asked.

"Ah, Seiran…Okairi Nasai" Shuurei smiled.

"And what are you doing here Ryuuki and Ran-shogun and Kouyou-sama too?" Shuurei asked.

This would be a long evening…

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

"Shuurei-dono really has the habit of picking collapsed people on the road" Ran Shuuei teased.

"Well what can I do, they're girls if I threw them out, they probably be…"

"We get the idea"

"Gomen nasai" Kikume said.

"Ah, it's nothing" Shuurei sweat dropped.

"Then what are their names?"

"My name is Namikaze Yuri" the blue-haired girl said bowing deeply.

"Watashi wa Yamato Tsubaki…" the purple haired girl said.

"Shirocho Mokuren…" the Megane said as she read the book Shuurei gave her.

"Boku wa Meiyo Kikume" the girl said energetically.

Their brows knotted.

This surely is a peculiar day…

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Well sorry to keep you waiting.

Mou, the Christmas vacation is going to end in January 7…

What a shame because when the vacation ended I will be very busy and I will not have much time to write for you.

I used Boku… Boku is a title much like ore and used by young boys so that the others will have the idea that she is tomboyish.

Anyway, I am planning many thing is this chapter but if you have ideas please share it with me.

And of course Review!

I appreciate reviews even if it's negative.

After all life can't always be positive right?

READ AND REVIEW DO THAT I CAN BE INSPIRED!!!!!!!
