I'm back with a new chapter for you lovely readers! ;3 So I was thinking, Why not have a chapter with Rin's parents in it? This shall be interesting, hohoho~

Note: Just in case you don't know, Yakitori's are grilled chicken pieces on skewers. It's a traditional Japanese dish. :3

Enjoy, lovelies :3~

Rin's POV

"Hey Akita, those rice balls seem pretty tasty." I stated as I gave the the blonde girl a grin. Not just any grin, but the grin that the kids here considered abnormal, petrifying or to be much more simpler, scary.

She widened her eyes and pushed the floral decorated lunch box in front of me, "Y-You can have K-Kagami-san! I'm not that hungry anyways, ha... ha ha..." she chuckled nervously.

I grinned and took the lunch box, I was going to head to the lunch table Miki, Len, and I were sitting in. I turned around and there I saw Miki staring at me with her arms crossed against her chest. I giggled nervously while she gave me those eyes that looked like they were staring deep into my soul.

"Rin, give Neru her lunch back." Miki simply said. She didn't need to tell me twice to return the food.

I placed the lunch box slowly on Neru's table, "Here you go, Akita..." I muttered. She chuckled nervously and she took the lunch box slowly from my hand.

I looked over at Miki and growled a little at her for making me loose the opportunity to eat some yummy rice balls, she snarled back at me and pulled me to the table she and I, along with Len, were sitting in.

We took our seats and she started, "Rin, I told you before and I'll tell you once again, It's not nice to take other people's food." She waved her finger at my face while she had her other hand across her chest.

Len sighed, "She tried to take someone's food again, ne? What about those rice balls I made for you?" He shot me a look, reminding me about the rice balls I demanded him to make for me.

Ah yes, the rice balls Len made for me. I ate them earlier, but as expected from me, I was still hungry even after I ate them. "C'mon, you both know I would still be hungry even if I eat a whole Life's Supply of Yakitori's !" I fought.

They both facepalmed at me, "Here you can have one of my rice balls, okay?" Len offered me a rice ball and I happily took it and bit a piece of it.

"Awww, how cute! Len offered you a rice ball Rinny~!" Miki cooed at me. I glared at her while chewing my rice ball.

"Shut up, Miki. And I told you, don't call me Rinny!" I hissed, she smirked while I heard Len groan.

~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O

The rest of the day passed by pretty quick and it was now time to go home. Thank God! I've been wanting to go home for hours.

"Miki~ Are you walking me home today?" I asked. Miki, Len and I were outside the school building in front of the gate.

"Sorry Rin, but Piko offered to walk me home today." She replied.

I groaned, "But you're going to see him later on! You have a date with him, remember?"

"Piko wouldn't stop talking to me about me about. It seems as though he was really eager about it." Len gave Miki a teasing smile. I chuckled at her bright red cheeks.

"S-Stop it you two! I g-gotta go look for P-Piko..." Miki waved to us as she walked away. I turned to face Len and crossed my arms.

"What?" He asked, dumbfounded.

"Aren't you gonna walk me home?"

"Well I would, but I got a bunch of errands to run."

"Then I'm supposed to walk home alone?" I sighed in defeat. Len shrugged his shoulders at me.

"Fine then." I simply said as I threw my school bag over my shoulder.

I walked home alone exhausted from school and had the sudden urge to jump into my bed and take a long and peaceful nap. I don't like walking home alone, I always considered it to be kind of boring since you just walk in silence with no one to accompany you.

Since my house isn't too far, I got there pretty quick. I stood outside my house and spotted a silver Toyota car. Oh my God, someone's inside my house! I rushed inside, unlocking my door first. When I unlocked the door, I quietly opened it and stepped inside while grabbing the baseball bat that stood next to the door... What? I could use this thing just in case some stupid robber come in here.

I walked to the kitchen quietly while holding the bat in my hands as if I was about to knock somebody out right now.

Calm down, Rin. It's not like you're going to die tonight, you're to young to die! You're only 16 years old, everything will be fine.

"RIN!" A blonde woman popped out from the kitchen. I panicked and swung the baseball bat but she ducked it, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOUNG LADY?"

I took a good look of the woman and noticed who it was, "Mom? What are you doing here? You practically scared me to death, I thought you were a robber!" I dramatically clutched on to my chest and felt my heart beat race.

"I'm glad to see you too, Rinny." She squealed as she squeezed me into a hug.

I pushed her away, "What are you doing?" I asked her, confused.

"Silly Rinny, I'm hugging you!"

"So now you pretend to care about me?"

My mom stood there silent as I said that. It was the truth though, My parents never seemed to care about me, so why are they here now? They mentally abandoned me for their stupid job, why did they even bother to come back to me?

"Rinny! How are you?" My dad walked in on us and stood next to my mom.

I sighed, "Why are you both here?" I simply asked while I narrowed my eyes.

"We got the week off and decided to come back to Japan." He replied.

"So that's it? You didn't come because of me? You decided to come back to Japan because you had the week off?"

"N-No Rin, That's not-" My mom started, but I cut her off.

"Y'know what? Why even bother to care? You guys couldn't even send me a decent card for my birthday, you were too busy thinking of your stupid job." I snapped. Both my parents stood there with hysteria in their eyes. I walked away from them.

"Rin wait!" My dad called out but I ignored him and walked out the house, slamming the door quite harshly. I didn't know where I was going, but I let the wind be my guide.

I know what you're thinking, 'Rin, you were so bummed out about your parents putting their job ahead of you first, why don't you just accept their accompany if you care so much?' Well, It's just not the same if they're only here because they got a week off. They didn't even think of coming to Japan so they could visit me, they only came because they didn't have any work to complete at their job. That not only made me feel unloved, but it also made me feel obliterated.

I kept on walking but stopped once I figured out I didn't know where I was, I looked left and saw that there was a store. I sat down in the sidewalk and buried my head in my legs while hugging them tightly. I felt bitter towards my parents, I couldn't stop thinking about them.

"Rin?" I heard a voice whisper at me. I looked up and saw Len standing in front of me.

"Len? What are you doing here?" I asked.

"I told you I had to run some errands. What are you doing sitting here alone? It could be dangerous, It's also pretty chilly out here." He warned while fixing the coat he had on.

"It doesn't matter. It's a stupid reason and it's a long story anyways." I mumbled as I buried my head in my legs again.

Len sat next to me, "C'mon tell me what's up. I've got plenty of time on my hands."

"Not that I don't enjoy your existence, but why do you care?" I asked emotionless.

Len sighed in defeat and leaned his head against the wall behind us, "As much as I hate to say it, I am your servant after all. A servant is supposed to be loyal to their master, aren't they?"

The realization hit me. Len was trying to be loyal?

"But I suppose if you don't want to talk about it, I'll just leave." He was about to stand up.

"W-Wait..." I grabbed his wrist before he could go and sighed. "Actually... I would talk to Miki, but she's on her date with Piko and I wouldn't want to interrupt... You're the only person I know that will listen to me, and I need someone to comfort me..." I felt my face heat up as I said that last part.

I looked up at Len and saw that he had a soft smile on his lips, For some reason my heart started beating rapidly at the sight. "I'm all ears, my master."

I chuckled a little and so did Len. I told him everything, from the beginning of my parent's job, to my birthdays, till today. He stayed there with shock in his clear blue eyes.

"Ah.. Geez Rin, I'm sorry." He rubbed his head sheepishly.

"Why are you sorry? My parents are the ones that should be apologizing." I simply stated.

Len shrugged his shoulders, "Didn't you say your parents came back to Japan? Isn't this your chance to have some family time?"

"Are you taking their side?"

"N-No, I'm just saying... They might've been looking forward to seeing you again. You know how hectic an adult's life can get. I'm just saying, you have the opportunity to spend all the time you have with your parents for the week. Why not take advantage of it?"

I thought about it. Maybe I was overreacting over my parent's crazy work schedule, "You're right Len. I'll go apologize to my parent's when I get home."

"Glad you're take my advice!" He smiled and looked down at his wrist watch. His eyes widened, "Um Rin, I gotta get home before my mom gets a heart attack." He stood up and waved at me, "See ya at school!"

I waved back slowly, for some reason I feel... confiding and comfortable around Len now.

Rinny is slowly and gently falling for Len ;3 This chapter was fun to write. I kind of found it really cute too! I was squealing while I was writing Len caring for Rin, the way a servant should care for his master!

RiriaKazeKage: Haha, of course! Rin and Len shall get through Tei's wrath with the power of their love! :3
