Chapter 8: Meeting!

The Morning had arrived with everyone heading to school. Holding back their yawns, Ryouta and Tomoya dragged their steps around.

"Ahh!"

"Hmm!" Tomoya said as he and Ryouta turned around to see a familiar face. "Isn't that the boy Kyou ran over?" Ryouta asked, Tomoya nodded. "Good morning, umm, umm resume person!" The boy greeted. "Who's that?" Tomoya asked. The boy then gave him a confused look "Then maybe… Coke face?" he asked.

"That was your doing, wasn't it…?" Tomoya asked. "Umm… what was your names?" He asked. Ryouta and Tomoya both realized that with meeting him they never gave their names. "I'm Tomoya Okazaki." Tomoya introduced. Ryouta nodded "And I'm Ryouta Kazuki ." Ryouta added.

"Tomoya Okazaki and Ryouta Kazuki, huh… nice names." The boy said. "Really…?" Tomoya and Ryouta asked in unison. "Can I call you Tomoya and Ryouta?" He asked. They both looked at each other for a second before nodding "Tomoya, Ryouta, Tomoya, Ryouta….Yeah, now I'll remember it." He said. Tomoya then glanced at him "And you are?" He asked. "Hiiragi" He stated.

"Is that your last name?"Ryouta asked. The boy nodded. "Yup, Kappei Hiiragi is my name." He stated. 'Kappei?' Tomoya thought to himself. Kappei looked at him with a confused look on his face "What's wrong? Something strange?" he asked.

"… A guy?" Ryouta asked. Kappei raised an eyebrow. "Who is?" He asked. "You…" Ryouta responded. This made Kappei laugh. "Oh man, Ryouta did you see me as a girl?" He asked. "No... well… umm…" He started until Tomoya cut him off. "Here take this!" He said as he showed him the handkerchief that he barrowed yesterday.

"Ah that's…" Kappei started. "The girl-like handkerchief." Tomoya informed. Kappei raised an eyebrow as he held on to his bag which was hanging on his shoulder. "So this confused you? You guys are such birdbrains." He said.

"F-for now. I'll give it back." Tomoya said as he handed him the handkerchief. "Yeah, thank you. This is important to me." Kappei said. "Really?" Ryouta asked. Kappei nodded, "You have to return things that you barrow after all. You can't just wait to meet someone by chance, without even knowing their name." Kappei informed.

Tomoya nodded, "Yeah, it'd be nice to know their name first. Oh yeah how did that job interview go? Something happened after that, right?" He asked. Kappei sighed as he scratched his face a little in embarrassment "Eh… umm… ahaha actually that didn't go to well either." He said.

"I see. That's too bad." Tomoya said. Ryouta nodded. "Yeah, I'm sorry to hear that." Ryouta added. Kappei sighed. "I thought showing them the resume might have been good enough though…" He informed. Ryouta looked at Tomoya and raised an eyebrow. "Is he talking about the resume we picked up the other day.

"Eh? Yeah that." Kappei answered. Ryouta shook his head. "Well of course it won't go well." Ryouta said. "Why not?" Kappei asked while tilting his head. 'Asking that with such an innocent face bothers me' Ryouta thought to himself.

"For now, it's better to write your name and address down. There aren't any shops that'll employ people with an unknown address." Tomoya explained. "Ahh, but that's impossible." Kappei said proudly. Tomoya looked at him and raised an eyebrow "Why's that?" He asked. Kappei smiled. "I don't have a home." He announced.

"What!" Ryouta exclaimed. "Ahahaha, that's just my circumstances right now… I'm in the middle of traveling. That's why I'm trying to find a job where I can live in." He explained. "Circumstances…?" Ryouta asked. "You want to hear?" Kappei asked.

Tomoya shook his head. "Not really." Tomoya replied. Kappei's expression showed that he didn't believe Tomoya. "That's a lie. You must've wanted to hear, didn't you Tomoya. About how I'm returning home, worrying in the middle of the night as I sleep until morning. And then the next time we meet. I'd be telling you what happened while going 'Haah Haah' I'm sure." Kappei explained.

'I wouldn't want a guy telling me what happened in the middle of the night while going 'Haah, Haah'' Ryouta thought to himself. "By the way, do you think there's a job like that out there that I can get an interview for? It's got to be a short term, high pay, manual that's user-friendly for beginners, and cosplay." He said.

Tomoya held his hand up "Hold that last thought. What do you mean by cosplay?" He asked. "Hmm, well about that… what is cosplay? Cosmo president? The president of all space…" Kappei stated. "No… what do you mean by that? Tomoya asked. "Something… So, is there one? Though it'd be perfect if that also had a dormitory too." Kappei stated.

"If you had to basically ask me… isn't that what a girl usually does?" Ryouta asked. "Eh?" Kappei listened to Ryouta and Tomoya's advice. He let out a disappointing sigh leaks out. "I wonder if there are any jobs posted that are meant for people below thirty years of age regardless of gender…" He said to himself.

"…It'd be better you don't concern yourself with such jobs." Ryouta stated. "Eh? Why?" Kappei asked. Ryouta sighed. "It's very suspicious." He said. Kappei sighed. "I guess so… but it's no good, not being old enough. Oh, whatever. Today, I'm taking an interview with a job I like." He said with a smile.

"What job is it?" Tomoya asked. Kappei closed his eyes and smiled. "Pizza home delivery." He stated. "With a bike?" Ryouta asked. Kappei nodded. "Yup, sounds pretty good, delivering stuff to people. It really feels like a job that's for anyone." Kappei said with excitement.

Ryouta smiled and nodded. "Certainly, that seems pretty good. Best of all, what I'm delivering is food… food… something people need to live on… Delivering pizza now, maybe someone who's on the verge of death will muster all of his strength just to order it... and if that's the case, their fate would be in my hands. Being caught by a single traffic light would mean the difference between life and death. Something like that feels so thrilling!" He said.

Ryouta and Tomoya stayed silent as they looked at him. Kappei looked at them with a curious look "Uh, Tomoya… Ryouta? You both seem distant." Kappei informed. "Well… would you not look in this way… It'd be a problem if people thought I knew you." Tomoya said.

Kappei laughed while closing his eyes "No way, it's a joke, it's a joke. Delivering to homes really is a job for guys after all. Being entrusted with something and going to someone. It feels so numbing!" Kappei explained with a warm smile.

'This guy… I can't read what the hell his smile means at all…' Tomoya thought as he looked at Ryouta. "Later, I have to go to my interview now. Next time we meet, I'll be a delivery boy then!" Kappei exclaimed with sparkling teeth as he smiled. Kappei then ran off heading to his interview.

"Job delivery huh?" Ryouta asked himself. Tomoya smiled. "Think he can do it?" He asked. Ryouta laughed and shook his head. "I highly doubt it but we'll see." Ryouta laughed as they continued to walk.

Twenty minutes earlier, the sound of curtains opening could be heard in Keiji's room. The sun shined down and hit his face making him shift a little.

"Keiji, its morning. Wake up, or you'll be late."

The light was piercing his eyes and a girl's voice woke him up. Knowing that it wasn't his mom's voice he quickly jumped up surprised. He turned to see Tomoyo standing at the side of his bed.

"You're awake. Surprisingly, your ability to wake up is pretty good. But, your sleeping posture's bad. Your hair's also messed up. "She said with a smile on her face. Keiji brushed his head as he gave off a warm sigh. "Seems pretty bad. Wet it a bit and it'll be better." She suggested.

"Yeah, yeah… by the way, Tomoyo… why are you here?" Keiji asked. Tomoyo raised her eyebrow as she looked at him. "There's nothing wrong with waking you up, is there? You have bad mornings right? That's why you're always late to school, isn't it? You should really stop that, especially when you've only been there for a few days." She scolded.

"You know…" He started. "What is it?" She asked. He scratched his head and looked at his sheets. "I thought you were gonna let me do whatever I wanted until you made it into the student council." He stated.

Tomoyo smiled and nodded, "Of course I did. But, I thought this'd be good for you. If you, yourself, don't want to be late, then there's no way you can't." She explained. Keiji sighed. "I guess so. But, at this point, I'm going to sleep." He said preparing to go back to sleep.

"That's no good, Keiji. If you wake up now, you'll sleep earlier. Doing that, you'll wake up earlier tomorrow. That's why if you try today, you won't be late. So, give it a try." She stated. Keiji shook his head. "I won't try, and I'll be late." He said as he put his head back down on his pillow.

"I told you, no!" She said in a stern voice as she looked at him putting the covers over him. "Shut up…" He simply said. She then looked to the ground with a sad look on her face "Keiji… Didn't you say you'd spend some time with me…? Won't you come with me to school?" She asked.

Keiji sighed. "I don't plan on going as far as you say. I only meant to talk to you at school, that's about it." He explained as he closed his eyes. She kept her eyes to the ground "I see… Then, it can't be helped… Guess I'll wrap you in the sheets and take you to school then…" She said with a tone that expressed how serious she was.

Keiji eyes snapped open. "What kind of girl are you?" He asked as he quickly got out of bed and looked at her. "I'm serious." She said in an intimidating voice. "Yeah. you're serious." He replied in an intimidating voice as well. The two glared at one another not saying a single word for a moment before Keiji broke the ice. "You know… You'll become a fine member of the school council." Keiji said, which made her smile.

Ten minutes later the two were walking to school together. "I don't think of you being bad or anything. Are the rumors really true?" He asked. Tomoyo nodded. "I told you already. Most of it is true. But some of it might have been exaggerated." She explained.

"In one night you forced a school to close down, right?" He asked. Tomoyo narrowed her eyes "That's too exaggerated." She explained. "I figured. Besides, there's no way something that crazy could have happened." Keiji replied. Tomoyo nodded, "Yeah, at worst, it was only temporarily closed." She informed.

Keji didn't say a word as he continued to walk and Tomoyo noticed this "What is it?" She asked. "Nothing" He simply replied. Tomoyo rose an eyebrow. "You're not distancing yourself from me a little bit right now, are you?" She asked.

Keiji shook his head "It's just your imagination." He stated. Tomoyo continued to look at him. "Right now you are keeping some distance though… Oh that's it, it's about what I said about the school temporarily closing down isn't it? It's not like that happened every day or anything. It happened every once in a while because of luck, no, misfortune, but it only happened once… I really don't want to talk about my past… If I had to explain each and every one of those events, it'd be a problem…That's why I'm saying they're 'generally' true, and I'll just leave it at that." She explained.

"But, isn't that what's causing a lot of misunderstanding?" he asked. "That's absolutely me from the past. I'm going to make up for those misunderstandings. That's how confident I am. But, if I become too well known by all the students, the chance of making up for all that will probably be lost. That's why I'm hiding it right now. " She replied.

"I see. I get it now." He said in an understanding voice. "Then, leave it. Talking about it is painful." She said. They both went silent for a minute before Keiji spoke. "But, why were you so wild back then?" He asked. Tomoyo looked to the side gazing at the ground, "I didn't really have any reason. But, I do have a reason for not being wild. When people go through puberty, if they don't have any reasoning, anyone can go wild. That's what I think, right?" She asked with a smile as she turned to gaze at him.

Keiji scratched his head "That's the first time I've heard that, but I kinda agree as well." He said. "Right, and just because I showed a little power, I ended up standing out." She explained. Keiji hid his smile as he looked forward. "You stand out a lot. As a girl you've become a city legend, no matter where you go." He informed her.

"That's how depressing this feels…" She said as she closed her eyes and sighed. Keiji didn't say a word he just let her continue to talk. "But, as I said before, I'm fixing things." She added as she faces him with clear eyes. By doing that, it made her look like a normal girl in Keiji's eyes.

'That's just what's in front of me. Before, Tomoyo was known to be even scarier. But now she's trying to walk away from it all… facing forward… The whole time, she's been in the same place I am, yet the way we lived our lives was different. For now, I'll just be with her as I promised. As we spend time together, we won't feel as uncomfortable, and someday we'll be able to laugh it all off. Until then, our relationship is miraculously amusing. Obviously, the place we'll both end up at will be completely different.' He thought to himself as he gazed at Tomoyo who was busy looking to the sky as they continued walking.

"Then, what's your reason for being calm, then?" He asked. She stayed silent for a moment, thinking of way to answer the question "You want to know?" She asked. Keiji nodded. "Yeah, I do." He answered. She smiled and turned her head forward. "That's a secret." She said.

"Now isn't that grand?" He asked. Tomoyo stood in front of him stopping him from walking and gave him a warm smile. "Isn't that fine? It's just like a girl to be keeping a secrets, isn't it?" She asked. Keiji sighed. "You keep talking about how girls are, you know." He stated.

"Of course, I'm a girl after all." She replied. 'Of course I think she's a girl but, her emphasis on the 'girl' feels uncomfortable. Having said that…' He thought to himself before speaking. "Let me ask you something, do you ever think of yourself as a girl who could be weak at times?" He asked. Tomoyo sighed. "Sometimes I do, I mean girls always tend to get weak when their around someone they like or respect." She stated which made Keiji burst out laughing at the thought of her being weak.

"What, why are you laughing? Did I say something strange?" She asked. Keiji stopped his laughing and looked at her. "No, not really." He said trying to change the subject. "What kind of girl interests you, Keiji?" She leaned over as she asked that. "You don't have to keep any secrets." She added. 'Surprisingly, I can smell the fragrance of a 'normal' girl' He thought to himself before speaking. "Sharing my secrets, huh. That's good, that's just like a girl." He said.

"Yeah…" she replied. Keiji shook his head. "But, I'm a guy. Guys have to keep quiet." He said. Tomoyo gave him an annoyed look "You idiot, if you're a guy, you should tell secrets like guys do." She informed him. "If a guy said everything, he's be labeled pervert." Keiji said as he put his hands in his pockets. "Really…?" She asked as a light breeze blew through her hair leaning a little closer towards him. "Hey, move back a bit, otherwise rumors will start spreading again." He said as he noticed a number of students increasing in his field of vision. "Even though you say that, I don't mind it at all." She complained a little as she moved back with a sad look.

They then walked through a path of sakura trees, Tomoyo stops walking looks up. "What is it?" Keiji asked. "No, it's nothing." She replied as she glanced at him. She then looked back at the sakura trees. "You were staring up a while ago, weren't you? Do you like sakura trees?" he asked. Tomoyo looked at him and smiled. "I guess, maybe I have grown to like it. But before, I didn't, that's just how it was…" She said with a smile. "Well liking it is good, but if we continue we'll be late." He stated. "Yeah, sorry for stopping like that, let's go." She replied as they continued to walk through the path.

They finally made it to the main gates of the school and Tomoyo turned to look at Keiji. "Keiji, don't you feel it'd be lonely? I'm talking about if the sakura trees lined up here we're cut down." She said. Keiji raised an eyebrow "Eh? Really?" He asked.

"Are you really a student from this school?" She asked with a look of annoyance. "For now." He said frankly. "I wonder how you know the details for the students coming in so well." She said. Keiji sighed "I'm not really interested in that sort of thing." He responded quickly.

"So it seems. But, I have to make sure, that's what this talk's for." she sighed as she looked to the side. "Really…?" He asked. She nodded. "That's why; I asked you if you'd feel lonely." She explained still looking to her left side. "Well… if they disappeared, then I guess I would." He said trying to cheer her up. "Right? I'm sure all the students in this school think the same way." She said with a smile. Keiji looked at the school then back at her. "I wonder about that. Someone like that Sunohara guy would probably just piss on them smiling." Tomoyo sighed at his statement as she closed her eyes shaking her head. "T-that guy…" She said as she was feeling dazed and her legs were staggering. "Come on, if we don't hurry, we'll be late." He suggested. She looked at him and smiled "Y-yeah." She replied as the two slipped through the entrance and into a group of other students.

"Ryouta!"

The sound echoed through the school which everyone could hear. Ryouta was sitting in the class room with Youhei, Tomoya, and Kazuyoshi. "Was that Fujibayashi?" Kazuyoshi asked. Ryouta sighed and nodded.

The door opened and Kyou could be seen walking into the class room and heading straight for Ryouta. She stopped in front of him and crossed her arms. "Ten seconds, I want a full explanation on why you left your house when I told you I was going to pick you up." She demanded.

"Tomoya came to my house unexpectedly he wanted to talk to me so I went with him. But I guess I should have informed you first, that was my fault and I apologize." He said. Kyou looked at him while Youhei snickered. "He's about to get punished. The book of death will be coming his way." Youhei whispered to Kazuyoshi. "How dreadful." Kazuyoshi replied.

"I guess I should just throw away your lunch today then, huh?" She asked. Ryouta's eyes went wide, the coolness he was showing off and staying calm with her had just went out the window. "Oh come on Kyou, I apologized." He said trying to save his lunch. Kyou just turned around not trying to face him, meaning she wasn't giving into it.

"Listen Kyou, to make it up to you, how about I buy you something later today. We'll go anywhere you want, and no matter how expensive it is, I'll pay it… deal?" He asked. Kyou turned around and glanced at him. "Anything and anywhere?" She asked. Ryouta nodded his head. "Okay deal… But promise me that next time you'll inform me before you change plans." She stated. Ryouta smiled and nodded "I Promise." He replied.

"Whipped." Youhei whispered to Kazuyoshi. Ryouta heard this and gave him an annoyed look until he came up with an idea. "Kyou there was something I wanted to tell you." He said which made Kyou look at him. "What is it?" She asked in a gentle voice.

"Sunohara over here was just telling me, Tomoya, and Kazuyoshi, his plan to get Ryou to walk home with him today." He stated. This caused Kyou's calm expression turn to slight anger. "Come again?" She said in a warning tone. "Eh?" Youhei said as he had no idea what Ryouta was talking about.

"Yeah, he was saying that he was going to sweet talk her and tell her how beautiful she was before he and these are his words 'makes the panties come off' when they arrive at his house. " Ryouta explained as Kazuyoshi and Tomoya held in their laughter. Before Youhei could speak a foot would come his way as Kyou spun around and kicked him in his face, knocking him out of his chair and onto the ground. "Touch my little sister and you won't live to talk about it." She warned as she headed to the door.

"Ryouta I'll be waiting for you in the cafeteria when lunch time comes." She informed. Ryouta nodded and with that Kyou made her leave. "You got destroyed." Kazuyoshi stated. Ryouta smirked. "Serves him right for trying to be funny." Ryouta added.

Later that day Tomoya, Kazuyoshi, Ryouta, and Youhei were walking home together. "But it's just 'that.' Two guys coming home from school doesn't really seem all that exciting." Youhei complained. Tomoya looked at him and sighed. "If you don't like it, walk separately." Tomoya stated.

Youhei shook his head at the comment. "No way man, that way we'd look like we weren't friends." He replied. Ryouta raised an eyebrow at him. "You have friends?" he asked. Youhei smiled and looked at him. "What are you three then?" Youhei asked. "You idiot, don't you know not to take words so seriously?" Kazuyoshi asked.

Youhei laughed as he closed his eyes. "I guess so, we're friends! Okazaki, Kazuki, Hiraga." Youhei stated. "I'm not that close to you, man! I'll beat the crap out of you!" Tomoya warned. Youhei gave him a shocked look. "S-so we're not friends, then?!" Youhei asked.

Ryouta knew what Tomoya was doing and decided to join in. "Don't say something as small as that, okay? You want to start a fight?!" Ryouta asked. Youhei started sobbing. "You're not forgiving at all!" He whined. "I may be nice to other people, but I'm not just to someone whose name is Sunohara." Tomoya added. "Fine, I'm not your friend in any way at all. If you guys ask me to call one of you my soul mate, I'll point and laugh so hard I'll cry." Youhei informed. 'Absolutely no way I'd do that…' they all thought in unison.

"Ah, Tomoya, Ryouta!"

Ryouta and Tomoya turned around and saw Kappei standing behind them with a smile on his face. "Hmm? Yo." Ryouta greeted. "Good afternoon. Going home?" Kappei asked. Youhei turned around with a shocked expression "Wha… Guys, who's this cute one? Introduce me!" Youhei exclaimed. "Cute one?" Ryouta asked, showing that he was very confused by Youhei's statement.

"Eh? Me?" Kappei asked. Youhei got excited by Kappei's looks. "I feel like I'm gonna burn up." Youhei said.

"Tomoya, this guys strange, I hope this other guy isn't the same." Kappei said as he turned to Kazuyoshi who smiled. "Don't worry I'm nothing like him." Kazuyoshi stated. "That guys a sad person. Better to just leave him as he is." Ryouta added.

"He's your friend, Ryouta, Tomoya?" Kappei asked. Kazuyoshi, Tomoya and Ryouta shook their heads. "Please let me call you my soul mate!" Youhei exclaimed with tears in his eyes. Ryouta, Tomoya, and Kazuyoshi started laughing.

"He's not your friend?" Kappei asked. "I wonder." Tomoya replied. Youhei laughed as he smiled at Tomoya. "Okazaki's jokes are quite cruel!" Youhei explained. "I'm thirsty!" Ryouta announced. "I'll go get you something." Youhei said as he ran off to a vending machine.

"He really thinks of you as a friend!" Kappei asked in disbelief. "You see some relationship with that conversation those two had?" Kazuyoshi asked. Kappei looked at him. "Hmm… like a master and servent… My names Kappei Hiiragi" He said. Kazuyoshi smiled at him "Kazuyoshi Hiraga… and you're just about right with the situation between them." He replied.

"How envious. I'd want a friend like that." Kappei said. 'He says that with such serious eyes' Kazuyoshi thought to himself.

"Oh yeah, how did your interview go with the pizza place?" Tomoya asked. Once he asked this Kappei gave him an annoyed look that pretty much said everything he needed to know. "Uh… if you give me that face then…" he started. "Listen! That place's manager is the worst." Kappei informed.

"Sexual harassment interview?" Ryouta asked. "I'm not that cute! He feels like he stains his own dignity as a person!" Kappei exclaimed. Kazuyoshi raised an eyebrow "Did something happen…?" he asked. Kappei nodded "He didn't even give me one cup of tea during the interview! Don't you think that's really rude? It feels like I don't know that he wants!" Kappei explained.

"… I don't know what you want as well man…" Tomoya stated as he sighed. There was just this thing about Kappei that could stress you out. He was a good person but he could be stressful at times.

"I'm back!"

The boys turned to see Youhei with drinks in his hand. "Ah, welcome back, manservant." Kappei greeted. "Eh?" Youhei looked at Ryouta who shrugged "Don't mind that. Give me my coke." Ryouta ordered. Youhei nodded and handed Ryouta and Tomoya their drinks "Here enjoy my soul mates."

"T-This is um…for you, as well." Youhei held out a bottle full of coke and handed it to Kappei who looked shocked. 'Is he falling for this guy?' Kazuyoshi asked himself as he watched on. "Eh? You got coke for me as well?" Kappei asked. Youhei nodded while giving him the coke "Please accept my feelings!" He exclaimed.

Kappei smiled and took the coke from Youhei. "Thanks, you really are a good person." Youhei smiled at the compliment. He started to get excited and looked at Tomoya. "Okazaki, come here!" He said. Tomoya looked at him and raised an eyebrow. "What?" He asked. Youhei wrung Tomoya's neck with his arm, and turned away from Kappei as he whispered to Tomoya. "I really scored big points there, didn't I? How should I put it, that girl… will probably fall in love with me, right?" He asked.

'This guy's… an idiot…'Tomoya thought to himself. Youhei continued to get excited showing off a big smile "Oh man, what should I do, is it okay to ask her birthday? After that, her three sizes… oh yeah, her name, her name. I have to ask her name!" He stated.

Kappei smiled. "Well time to drink." Kappei slowly opened the can before being splashed in the face by the coke. Kappei yelled as the coke hit his face; it kinda looked like a geyser hit his face. "M-my eyes! My eyes are soaked!" He exclaimed.

"Hey calm down." Ryouta said as he tried to walk over to him. "But, but, it's in my eyes!" Kappei said as he spun around in rage. "I'll dry them so wait." Ryotua stated. Kappei continued to whine. "They're soaked."

Ryouta started to wipe Kappei's face gently. "That tickles Ryouta." He said in a girly voice. "Just stay still, it'll be over soon." Ryouta replied which led to Kappei groaning which almost sounded like a moan. "This conversation is somehow getting me turned on." Youhei informed them.

Kappei finally opened his eyes and looked at Youhei "Hmph! You cheap manservant! It's all because of your coke!" Kappei exclaimed. Youhei was shocked by this and it expressed it on his face. "Eh? Ah, uh, umm, I'm sorry." Youhei said.

"Fix your posture and sincerely apologize. If your voice weakens, continue apologizing!" Kappei exclaimed in anger. At those words, Youhei's body rigors like he was hit by thunder. He looked at Tomoya with teary eyes. "You're annoying, so don't look at me." Tomoya bluntly said.

Youhei started the water works."I went through so much trouble to get this flag!" Youhei screamed as he ran away. Kazuyoshi looked at Ryouta "Flag? What the hell is he talking about?" he asked. Ryouta shrugged "I have no idea." He responded. Tomoya shook his head 'He's… gone as far as mistaking Kappei for a girl, hasn't he…?'He thought to himself.

"What a despicable manservant. Next time I see him, I'll splash him with salt." Kappei threatened. Ryouta smiled. "Your mouth's filthy, but also quite good…" He informed. Kappei looked at Ryouta and raised his eyebrow. "Eh? Really? Though that's something polite people say well, right?" Kappei asked.

"I guess you have a point… by the way, you don't have any interviews today?" Tomoya asked. Kappei turned his head to glance at Tomoya with a smile. "Ah, that's right. Today I'm going to an office." Kappei informed.

"Is that so? What kind of work, if you don't mind me asking" Kazuyoshi said. Kappei gave him a warm smile before cheerfully saying. "A moving job."

"… Physical work… you okay with that?" Tomoya asked. "I'm sure I'll be fine. It's all about balance and timing. Besides, physical work really is a guy's job. It really shows one's manhood. Plus, you get your pay the same day you work. That's really cool. The employer's gonna be dripping with guts too." Kappei said.

"Well… good luck with that." Ryouta stated. Kappei nodded and smiled. "Thank, I'll treat you later out of my salary for wiping my face there… Later!" He exclaimed as he ran off. Tomoya shook his head 'He'll probably lose out on this interview too.' He thought to himself. The three of them smiled as they watched Kappei run off to his interview.
