The very next day, I find a poster taped on the wall next to the Book Room #2:

"Yumemite Yumemi's Birthday Bash! Be sure to be there~~"

The date is next week. I have to take revenge, and I knew if I let her get away with my defeat, I'll never be able to defeat Kirari.

After school, I walk up to Yumemite's dressing room. Unlike Ikishima, I know exactly where Yumemite's office is.

I bang on the door, and Yumemite's manager opens the door to tell me to quiet down. She tells me that Yumemite is busy practicing for the birthday bash, but I tell her that what I need to tell Yumemite is really important and that I must tell her in person. She tells me to hold on and she'll ask Yumemite if I could come in.

She closes the door as muffled conversation occurs though the door. I hear Yumemite's snarky laugh and I hear footsteps coming through the door. I see Yumemite and her manager open the door, with Yumemite smiling evilly at me. The manager gives me a pat-down and then I enter the room.

"So," Yumemite says," you saw my flyer. Are you planning to attend my birthday bash?" Yumemite laughs.

"You know it," I respond. "And I will gamble with you there for all you got."

"And how will you do that," Yumemite chuckles at me. "I have four times as much money as you do."

"I'll beat you anyway," I respond, "and if I win, you must resign from the student council."

She covers her mouth to muffle a cry of laughter. "You're joking, right? Is that what this is all about? Fat chance, Kokoro-san. What'll be in it for me if- I mean when- I win?"

"I'll become your personal house pet."

Yumemite pauses her laughter. "Are you joking me?" Yumemite asks her, "the last person who ever actually owned a house pet was-"

"You were a student of Juraku-sama, were you not?" I ask her. "She owned a house pet of her own. You'll be just like her." I show her a leather leash that I slipped through the manager's pat down. Yumemite looks at the manager angrily.

"Fine," Yumemite concedes, "if you want to be dominated so bad, then I'll accept your stupid gamble. If you beat my 4.7 billion, I'll quit the student council, but if you lose your 1.3 billion, you'll become my personal house pet until graduation."

Yumemite smiles evilly as she stares at me, "you're going to be doing some dirty jobs. Porn, prostitution, you name it. Your life will be hell, so good luck- you'll need it."

"It's a deal then," I respond as I walk out of the room. "I'll think of a game to play, and it won't be Doubt Poker."

Yumemite chuckles as I leave. "Good- you may have a chance."

I close the door as I walk to the Officiating Office of the Student Council. This gamble will decide if I am truly worthy of meeting Kirari.
