A little girl sat huddled in her bed, covered with her blankets.
It was raining heavily and it caused the electricity to be down.
Which meant that she wasn't able to sleep with her bedside lamp on.
She was shivering. Hard.
The darkness enveloped her, suffocated her. She didn't even dare move.
Suddenly, bright light flashed and a loud bang was heard.
Lightning.
She gave a shriek. Not that she was scared of lightning, but it was just so...
Unexpected.
The sudden flash of light momentarily blinded her eyes.
She started to cough. Wheezing for breath.
She then took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.
Outside she could hear muffled voices arguing.
"Should we help her?"
"You know very well that we will get severely punished if we do!"
"We can't just do nothing!"
"Yes, we can! The Master should have his own reasons for not allowing us to talk to her."
"But..."
"Listen. We have to trust in his judgment. If we don't we'll be fired. Ok?!"
The voices then faded away as footsteps of the maids leaving from outside her door.
She shut her eyes. She really wanted someone to help her, but that wouldn't happen anytime soon.
The darkness. It scared her.
As she sat on the bed, she suddenly realized it: No one was going to help her. They knew she was scared, but they would do nothing.
So the only thing she could do... Was to do something about it.
She was breathing really heavily. Practically panting for breath. Her eyes were squeezed shut. It was as if the darkness was an entity out to suffocate her.
She bit her lips and clenched her fists, as she wrenched her eyes open, taking deep breaths.
She was still shaking, but less.
Her eyes took in the surroundings.
Her breath steadied.
And she realized that it wasn't that bad at all.
It was as if the suffocating blanket if darkness had been kicked away and disposed of.
And for many years now, it had been like that.
Conquering fears on her own, depending on herself, working hard on her own, being weak.
That was until she stepped into elementary school.
She met them.
Poke, poke, poke...
"What is it?"
Misaki turned around and sighed.
She had just been talking to Haruhi when she was suddenly poked.
Kaoru was behind her.
She blinked and glanced back at Haruhi, who was similarly being confronted by Hikaru.
Kaoru smiled.
Both of them reappeared in front of Misaki and Haruhi.
Hikaru began.
"Oi. Did you two know-"
"That we're going to the beach today?"
"The beach?"
Haruhi had a bored look on her face.
Misaki straightened up in her seat.
So they were going on another trip today? What was with the Host Club and trips? Why was she even going? She was just a lowly helper, after all!
"Hey. Didn't you say just yesterday that you would like to go to the beach?"
Haruhi tilted her head.
Oh... She forgot, didn't she?
"Did I say that?"
Kaoru and Hikaru sweatdropped dramatically.
"You did." They deadpanned, pointing at her.
"Everyone heard it, Haruhi." Misaki remarked as she looked at Haruhi.
Haruhi had question marks floating about her. Her brown eyes were wide.
"First things first."
Kaoru and Hikaru stepped out of the door for a few minutes.
They came back, with a very familiar girl in tow.
Misaki blinked.
"HOTARU?!"
"You see Misaki, Hikaru wanted Hotaru to come along."
Kaoru explained as he pointed at Hikaru and Hotaru.
Misaki wondered but Kaoru had this suggestive tone to his voice.
Hotaru Pov
I was pissed at the fact that Hikaru was acting so calmly when he and Kaoru had practically kidnapped me. I hadn't even planned on visiting the Host Club today. But everything changed when the Hitachiins kidnapped me.
And now I was just talking alone with Hikaru.
I sighed, crossing my arms as I glanced over at Misaki.
She seemed to be perfectly content with the fact that her schedule was going to be forced into disarray.
I shook my head. Misaki was way too nice for her own good.
Hikaru started, straightening up.
"You should have come yesterday, Hotaru."
I rolled my eyes.
"Yesterday is yesterday, Hikaru. And what did you do yesterday that is so interesting that you wanted me to go?"
Hikaru stared at me, his amber eyes widening slightly.
"Hey, how did you know I'm Hikaru?"
I stared back at him for a few moments in silence.
I sighed, walking to the nearest chair before plopping down in it.
I laid back down and stared at up the ceiling, opening my mouth to speak.
"To be honest Hikaru, I can't tell you two apart like, AT ALL? You want to know how I did it? You see, I secretly dyed part of your hair blue and planted a tracking device on you."
Hikaru blinked.
"Oi, be serious, Hotaru!"
I laughed.
"Hm. Well then, tell me this first: How do you tell me and Misaki apart?"
Hikaru had this hilarious weirded out look on his face.
He clucked in annoyance and stated angrily.
"What kind of question is that?! You're not even twins, or related for that matter. You're two different people, so stop with the weird questions and answer mine already!"
Hikaru had unconsciously started to shake me.
I sighed.
"Yeah, that's it. You two are different people. Now stop shaking me, Hikaru."
Hikaru blinked before settling in the chair beside mine.
I suddenly thought of something.
I sat up so suddenly that Hikaru jumped.
"What are you doing?" He hissed, thoroughly annoyed now.
Ignoring him, I asked him a question.
"So what was so interesting yesterday that you wanted me to go?"
Hikaru blinked.
He stood up before looking away, his hands tucked in his uniform pocket.
"It's nothing."
He murmured softly.
I rolled my eyes.
"Then why," I started, feeling rather annoyed. "Did you even bring it up in the first place?"
I stood up and started to poke him.
Poke, poke.
"Oi, spill it."
Poke, poke.
"Tell me."
Poke, poke.
"Come on."
Poke, poke.
"You do know that this can and will go on forever."
"Fine! It was boring without you, OK?!"
Hikaru whirled behind as he snapped.
I started to laugh in triumph when the meaning of his words sank in.
I blinked and tried to stop myself from blushing.
"W-WHAT?!"
"Let's not forget something, shall we?"
Misaki looked up at Kaoru and Hikaru.
"Forget what?"
She asked.
Kaoru gently grabbed her by the shoulders and turned her around.
She blinked.
Behind her, there had to be about hundred mannequins wearing different types of swimsuits.
"When did those things get here?"
She asked, thoroughly confused.
"Misaki... They've been here since yesterday."
Kaoru nudged her gently, sweatdropping.
"Oh."
She blinked several times, as if trying to dispel her confusion.
"Really?"
At this point, a gigantic arrow labeled 'Clueless' appeared and pointed itself at her.
"You don't get it, don't you Honey-senpai?"
Mitsukuni looked at them with wide eyes before he put down a mannequin donning a blue sailor-uniform suit.
"Now, Haruhi, we have the perfect swimsuit for you here."
Hikaru held up a two-piece white coloured swimsuit that was frilly.
"As you all can see, Haruhi as flat as a cutting board. If she wears a one piece, her lack of curves will be made painfully obvious. We specially selected this suit. The frills draw the attention away and makes up for it."
Haruhi looked at the suit with an annoyed look on her face.
"Oh, and don't think for a moment that we have forgotten you two, Misaki and Hotaru."
Kaoru and Hikaru dramatically looked at them.
"As you can see, both of them doesn't have any problem with this topic. So once again, we have carefully selected swimsuits that would show off the attributes you already have."
Hikaru grabbed a mannequin, grinning.
"Hotaru, this swimsuit is for you. As you can see, it has a backless design that would show off alot of things about you."
Hotaru rolled her eyes and made a face.
Mitsukuni suddenly appeared beside Misaki with the mannequin wearing a sailor costume, only that it had light shades of pink along with the baby blue color.
"I think Misa-ki would look great in this!"
Misaki smiled.
Kaoru suddenly appeared with a mannequin.
It was sporting a black color swimsuit with a frilly mini-skirt that had shades of white, light pink and red.
"Misaki. I think you would like this." He said as he held out the mannequin kindly.
Misaki smiled. She took the mannequin.
"Thank you, Kaoru! Mitsukuni, the costume is really cute but blue just isn't my thing...Thanks though! It was nice of you to ask."
She noticed that Kaoru and Mitsukuni was exchanging glances.
"It's OK, Misaki!"
Mitsukuni suddenly smiled before exclaiming really cheerily.
Misaki blinked.
There was something wrong...She was quite certain that it involved Kaoru and Mitsukuni.
But what would she know? If she did, it would only make things more and more complicated.
"Boss..."
"Why didn't you tell us..."
"That the clients would be coming along today as well?"
Kyoya suddenly appeared, as he wrote down something in his little black book.
Misaki hoped it wasn't secretly a Death Note.
"You see, Hikaru, Kaoru...I thought that it wouldn't be fair if only Hotaru got to come along. So I sent out an invitation to the rest of the ladies. Hotaru will be going for free since a member requested it."
Misaku could've sworn Kyoya shot her an dirty look.
What? So what if she requested that?
" You should be grateful that the Host Club along with Hotaru are going for... free." He said the word with distaste.
"But Haruhi cannot wear a swimsuit..." Hikaru and Kaoru grumbled.
Tamaki suddenly appeared, looking very happy and triumphant.
He pointed at the twins dramatically.
"Well, I like this! Haruhi won't have to wear a swimsuit, so she won't be taken advantaged of by you shady twins!"
Misaki looked past them and noticed someone familiar boarding one of the limousines to the beach.
"KURA-CHAN!"
Misaki sat herself down on a mat.
The beach was really pretty.
She had never been to one in a long time.
After Kaoru and Hikaru finished bugging Tamaki-senpai about the choice of beach, they had went to play a game of beach volleyball. Hotaru joined Kaoru's side.
Misaki sweatdropped as Hotaru made a face at Hikaru upon scoring a goal.
Soonafter, Hotaru hit the ball too hard and so both of them had went chasing after the ball, laughing as Kaoru went chasing after the ball too, splashing up sea water in their path.
Of course with a numerous number of ladies fangirling from the sidelines, unwilling to destroy this lovely moment. Hotaru stared after with a weird look.
Ladies were queuing up to have some alone time with Tamaki. Upon every compliment made by Tamaki, the hoards of ladies were sent into fits of giggles.
Misaki sighed, and laid down, hoping to get some sleep.
"Hey! Misaki, Haru-chan! Let's go hellfish hunting!"
Misaki blinked.
Hellfish hunting?
She stood up and started walking towards him.
"Are there even any shellfish here, Honey-senpai?" Haruhi asked.
Misaki blinked.
And suddenly, they were surrounded by hundreds and hundreds of...
Crabs?!
"Scrap that, Haruhi! Grab a bucket! Gosh, think of dinner!" Misaki squealed. Haruhi's eyes were shiny in happiness as she imagined dinner.
"Where are the crabs coming from?" Misaki asked out loud to herself.
She turned around and spotted Kyoya's special police force unloading tons and tons of crabs onto the beach.
The leader saluted towards Kyoya, who was writing something down in his notebook, a fake smile on his face.
He suddenly turned towards Misaki.
"Oh, Misaki. In case you're wondering , they want to make up to Honey-senpai for the last time."
The leader of the police force nodded and saluted.
"Yes! Anything for Mitsukuni-sama!"
Misaki sweatdropped.
And then she started to wonder how Kyoya even heard her from so far away.
Haruhi started waving towards Tamaki.
"Senpai! Dinner's gonna be awesome!"
She smiled.
Tamaki turned and looked at her.
"It's gonna be a blast!"
Tamaki broke into a wide smile.
"Good to see you're so happy, Haruhi!"
He suddenly appeared next to her, picking up a crab and gesturing at it playfully.
"Hey Haruhi, isn't this crab... Crab-tivating?"
Haruhi blinked and smiled up at him brightly.
"Yeah, Senpai!"
They smiled at each other fondly for a few moments.
Which was broken when a centipede crawled up from the crab.
"CEN-"
"TI-"
"PEDE!"
"Hey Haruhi, we didn't assume you would be the bug-loving type, but couldn't you at least have been more gentle?"
Haruhi rolled her eyes.
"At least I didn't kill it."
Hotaru walked up to her.
"Yeah. The little thing is lucky that it bumped into Haruhi and not me. I wouldn't have spared it."
"At least Haruhi picked it up and flung it away. If it was me, I might have just flicked it off." Misaki piped up.
Misaki imagined herself flicking the centipede off. She then imagined that the centipede landed on an innocent bystander, who started to shriek loudly.
Chaos.
Kaoru and Hikaru frowned up at them.
A sudden hoard of fangirls suddenly appeared.
"Oh my gosh!"
"Haruhi-kun is sooooo brave!'
They proceeded to squeal and fangirl.
Misaki sweatdropped as she saw that Kura-chan was one of the fangirls.
"Hey, Boss. Let's play a game. Whoever can discover the weaknesses of Haruhi, Misaki and Hotaru wins!"
Tamaki practically jumped up in his excitement.
"Good idea, Hikaru, Kaoru! Whoever finds out first will get a prize!"
Kyoya appeared once again.
"Looks like I have the perfect prizes here."
In one hand, Kyoya held pictures of Haruhi when she still had long hair.
In the other hand, he held some pictures of Hotaru wearing her old school's uniform and had her long blonde hair tied up in a high ponytail. There was also several of her doing marathons and dancing.
"This photographs were kindly provided to me by some sources."
A large arrow pointed at the photographs.
It was labelled, 'Probably supplied by Haruhi's father and Hotaru's mother."
Kyoya adjusted his glasses.
"As for Misaki..."
He held up a photo when she was in the school in the U.S, with her hair in a high ponytail.
There was another picture of her singing during a concert and wearing her costume for choir.
The last one was her as an elementary school student in which she was holding up a cute kitten in her hands.
"Courtesy to the Photography Club in Ouran Middle School and Misaki's friend, Kurakano Momoka."
The eyes of everyone in the vicinity lit up instantly.
Let the competition...
Begin!
The trio was dragged into a cave.
What she didn't know was that she had been holding Kaoru's hand the whole time.
She was put into a dark van on the beach.
What she didn't know was Mitsukuni's reason for overreacting.
She was confronted by a spear.
He's a senpai, not a sentai!
They weren't able to get even the slightest reaction from her. Not Misaki, not Haruhi, not Hikaru.
It left them scratching their heads in confusion as they thought about what they hadn't tested on them yet.
Suddenly, a bright lightbulb flickered on top of Tamaki.
"I GOT IT!"
With the same reactions from Misaki, Haruhi and Hotaru, they wondered if the trio was even afraid of anything at all.
Sure, it was impossible, since everyone had to have some sort of fear or weakness.
"Eh, Boss, what are you doing?"
Tamaki was kneeling near a patch of plants and digging furiously, hard at work.
"I'm digging for some grass snakes."
"But even if the snakes are disgusting it doesn't count as a fear, Boss."
...
...
"Wait-"
"Are there supposed to be any grass snakes here?"
...
...
"BOSS!"
"YOU IDIOT!"
"Those aren't grass snakes, they are the poisonous Habu snakes!"
Tamaki looked at the bucket in horror, before letting out a shriek.
Misaki was lying on a mat, wondering about things only she knew.
She closed her eyes as she sighed, trying to shut out the light and the noise.
She thought she heard a scream.
She immediately jolted up and looked around attentively as she rose to her feet.
Another scream.
Her head shot up towards the direction of a tall rock.
Her green eyes widened in horror as she bolted towards the rock.
For she had just seen Kura-chan and her two friends get cornered by two burly thugs on the cliff.
She could see Haruhi up there as well, with both of the men glaring at her.
And what made it worse...
Hotaru was up there as well.
The men certainly didn't look like they had good intentions
Misaki dashed up the side of the gigantic rock.
As soon as she reached the top, she was greeted by a horrifying sight.
One of the thugs were grabbing two of Kura-chan's friends.
Kura-chan had managed to squirm free.
"Kura-chan!" Misaki stepped forward.
"Quickly! Get Tamaki-senpai and the others!"
Kura-chan nodded before running off the side of the rock to fund the Host Club.
Misaki stepped in front of of the man who was attempting to go after Kura-chan.
He leered at her. His slurrrd speech immediately told her that he was drunk.
"Oooooh, another pretty lady... Want to join us?"
Misaki glared at him.
She cast a glance at the thug holding Haruhi and Hikaru.
She had to end this quick... They're in danger...
She took a deep breath as she got into fighting stance.
"Sir, I would have to ask that you let go of them."
The man laughed.
"Or whaaattt? You gonna hit me, girrrlliieee?"
Misaki nodded sternly.
"But of course."
She immediately launched on top of him and punched his face.
Startled, he let go of the two girls.
"Go! Help Kura-chan!"
She knocked the man out by swiftly kicking the top of his head.
As she sent the man collapsing in a heap, she immediately turned around to help out Haruhi and Hikaru.
Her eyes widened in horror.
The man was dangling Haruhi by the scruff of her shirt over the edge of the cliff.
Even as she frantically ran towards them, she could see the thug's grip loosening as he uttered spiteful words at Haruhi.
Hotaru was screaming at the thug to leave Haruhi alone. She beat and kicked at the thug but to no avail.
Then he let go of Haruhi completely.
And Misaki watched as Haruhi fell, down from the cliff to the sea.
"HARUHI!"
Two voices rang out in unison.
Hotaru had finally struggled free by biting the man's hand.
She dashed forward as if to launch herself off the cliff after Haruhi.
A hand stopped and dragged her back.
Before the person himself dived off the cliff.
"Tamaki-senpai..."
Misaki said, in shock.
She suddenly caught sight of the remaining thug.
That thug did that to Haruhi!
With a dark aura around her, she stepped forward.
However, Hotaru was already a step in front of her.
She was screaming as she ran forward, and punched him.
He grabbed Hotaru again but she was struggling and kicking him violently.
Misaki ran forward and planted her foot in his face.
He let go of Hotaru, who stumbled free.
It was as if there was a field of red in her vision. She couldn't control her actions, and all she could think of is to beat the thug up for everything he did.
She launched herself at him and kicked him in the stomach.
He stumbled to the ground and Misaki started to punch his face in deliberation.
A tear had made her way down her cheek.
A bunch of footsteps came from behind her.
"Misaki!"
Someone suddenly grabbed her hand to stop from her beating the thug up any longer and started to tug her away.
Misaki turned around suddenly, about to tell off whoever it was.
She calmed down immediately when she saw it was Kaoru.
She stood up, glancing at the thug who was thoroughly beaten up with a huff, but otherwise already calmed down.
She suddenly blinked.
Did she... really do that?
Haruhi was safe.
Now Misaki was in her room, preparing for dinner.
Hikaru had yelled at Hotaru for being so reckless
Tamaki had yelled at Haruhi for rushing up there by herself.
With a sigh, she reached for the bag of clothes that she had requested for her maids to pack.
Her eyebrows furrowed with confusion and she let out a gasp.
Did... her bag get mixed up?
Instead of her old T-shirts and dresses (Nobody ever bothered to get her new clothes), inside the bag was beautifully made and stylish clothes, ranging from nightdresses to blouses and skinny jeans.
There was a note in the bag.
Dear Misaki,
I dropped by your house today hoping to see you again, but you weren't at home.
I happened to chance upon your helpers packing your bag with such unfashionable and old clothes.
So I put some clothes of my own design in ;)
Hope you like them, and I hope to be able to see you again.
~Yuzuha
Misaki felt really touched.
A smile spread across her lips.
"Thank you so much, Yuzuha-san."
Misaki twitched.
The tension was awkward, to say the least.
Hikaru and Hotaru were refusing to talk to each other.
Tamaki and Haruhi were ignoring each other and ironically they were sitting right next to each other.
She was sitting in between Kaoru and Hikaru, and Hotaru sitting next to Hikaru.
Mitsukuni and Mori were shifting in their seats uncomfortably.
The tension was pretty much evident.
She sighed.
Her eyes lit up at the sight of dinner.
She immediately picked up several crab legs at once.
She cracked them swiftly before eating them.
Misaki continued to eat, as if venting her fury by eating the delicious crab legs.
She realised that Haruhi and Hotaru were also doing the same.
Misaki saw everyone twitching in their seats, but Tamaki spoke first, but more to Haruhi than Hotaru and Misaki.
"Don't you think you're eating too much?"
Haruhi cracked a crab leg and ate it in a second.
"I thought you weren't talking to me?"
Tamaki slouched.
"This crab is in-crabbable, don't you think?"
Misaki twitched.
That pun...
Hikaru suddenly spoke, turning away from Hotaru, but obviously talking to her.
"Idiot. You're going to get sick."
Hotaru rolled her eyes and ate more crab legs in defiance.
Misaki turned to Kaoru.
"Kaoru... Don't worry about me getting sick, because I've been eating crabs all my life."
That part was true. The maids often brought her to a restaurant to eat crab legs. She always sat alone while the maids occupied another table.
Kaoru gave her a small smile.
"Of course, Misaki."
There was silence.
Then...
"Haruhi, Hotaru, I see you haven't learnt your lesson. I won't talk to you again until you do. Kyoya, lead me to my room."
Both of them stalked off without another word.
Misaki sighed and wiped her hands on her napkin.
"Just apologise, will you?"
Haruhi and Hotaru looked at her.
Mitsukuni and Mori agreed.
"Yeah! Haru-chan, Taru-chan, you had us really worried!"
Both of them tilted their heads.
"You guys were... worried?"
Misaki sweatdropped.
"Of course. Baka."
Mitsukuni nodded.
They were silent.
"Sorry, guys." Haruhi spoke up.
"Yeah." Hotaru added, crossing her arms.
Everyone grinned and embraced them in a group hug.
Suddenly, Haruhi and Hotaru keeled over, clutching their stomachs.
"Oh no!"
"Get them to the nearest restroom!'
"Quickly!"
As Haruhi and Hotaru rushed off, everyone looked at Misaki expectantly.
"You're-"
"Not going to throw up?"
Misaki sighed.
"Didn't I say that I wouldn't get sick and throw up?"
She was lying on the bed in her room.
There had suddenly been a black out, and she was lying on the bed and staring off quite literally into nothingness.
Suddenly, there was a few knocks on the door.
"C-Come in!"
She sat up a flashlight shone her way.
"Misaki? So this is your room, huh?"
Misaki smiled.
"Kaoru! What is it?"
Even though it was dark and she could see practically nothing, she could imagine Kaoru scratching his head in embarassment.
"I just wanted to talk to you."
He made his way over and beside her on the bed.
"Are you OK?"
Misaki blinked.
"I'm fine, Kaoru! Why do you ask?"
"Well...Just now on the rock, you seemed pretty worked up. I've never seen you like that before."
Misaki sighed as she turned to face him.
"To be honest..."
She turned again and stared off into space.
"I was quite surprised at myself too."
Kaoru placed his hand on her shoulder.
She blushed a bit before sighing.
"I was scared."
She was walking to the room that Kaoru had said was Kyoya's room.
She was feeling the walls and once she found a door, she grabbed the handle and pushed open the door.
Taking a few steps forward, she turned the corner and took a glance.
She wasn't expecting to see anything because of the black out.
However, there was light filtering through the windows and Misaki's jaw dropped.
Kyoya was on top of Haruhi and Hotaru. He was using both hands to hold their arms together.
Misaki glared at him. A tick mark appeared on her forehead.
She took a step forward.
"Kyoya-senpai..."
Kyoya continued talking to Haruhi and Hotaru.
He did not hear her.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
Kyoya-senpai left the room soon after, without even giving her an explanation. Thanks to the intervention of Tamaki-senpai.
"Haruhi... What were the both of you doing?"
Misaki found the fact that he completely ignored Hotaru interesting.
"Hotaru. Hikaru was looking for you."
Hotaru nodded and slipped out of the room, but not before warning Tamaki.
"Don't you dare ever hurt her, Suou-senpai."
Misaki blinked. She personally felt there was more meaning to the phrase than to the eye.
Suddenly, lightning flashed and a loud rumble was heard.
Hotaru ought to be really happy right now. Misaki didn't know anyone who liked lightning better. According to Hotaru, it was pretty?
Another flash of lightning.
Haruhi gasped before jumping a bit.
Tamaki started to talk to her.
Haruhi decided to crawl into the wardrobe.
And Misaki, being the hard core otaku shipped them together and decided it was time for herself to vanish.
Apparently, Tamaki was doing something called S&M?
Misaki smiled upon noticing that Hikaru and Hotaru were talking again.
However, Haruhi was giving Tamaki annoyed looks.
She sighed.
She took her bag of clothes from Yuzuha as she got onto the car that would bring them home.
She suddenly remembered something, turning towards Kaoru.
"Kaoru, could you tell your mother that I am grateful for the things she got me?"
Kaoru looked confused, but he smiled and agreed.
The car started moving.
Misaki blinked.
"Aren't we forgetting something?"
Mitsukuni smiled at her.
"No, of course not!Why would you say that?"
Misaku sweatdropped.
Behind them, she could hear Tamaki's yells for them to come back.
"Are you sure?"
Kyoya adjusted his glasses.
"Of course. Don't be stupid, Misaki."
Misaki turned around and saw Tamaki still chasing after the car.
The car stopped, and Misaki took her bag and started to get out.
She smiled and waved at the remaining people in the car, namely Kaoru and Hikaru and Haruhi. Also Kyoya, who was the driver.
As she got out, she suddenly stopped.
"Kaoru? Thank you."
Then she closed the door, and watched the car zoom out of sight into a tiny silver dot.
She walked up the hill to her house.
The very world of loneliness and sadness.
