-Day 25:Dinner Date-

Chiyo nervously played with her fingers on her way to the date with her fiancee Tora. It had now been ten days since they returned from London and Tora had casually asked her out to dinner tonight. Tora claimed to have taken an interest in her but she wasn't so sure.

She didn't miss how he cared for the woman Misaki Ayuzawa who got married and became a Usui. Chiyo wasn't expecting a perfect marriage because she knew of Tora's past flings. The man attracted women left and right. It was best to prepare for some problems in the future. She could only hope for them to at least bond right now and have a level of respect for each other.

If only her parents weren't so invested into this marriage she sighed. Anyone could see that she obeyed whatever they asked her to do. They would just have to cross fingers and hope things went right.

"Milady we have arrived," She was so lost in thought, Chiyo didn't notice the car had stopped nor the driver had already opened the door for her.

"Ah yes, thank you," She bowed respectfully exiting the car. Chiyo looked up at the fancy and tall building which was frequented by many business folks. She had been here many times with her father.

It was kind of predictable though. Didn't he say she could pick the place? Was it strange for her to want to do things she never experienced with Tora she wondered, walking up the glamorous stairs? They could create beautiful memories.

She frowned realizing she was growing interested in a man she hardly knew. She was only a bit curious about him at first and it was slowly growing into something more. Not love of course. There was no love at first sight between them. Chiyo didn't love nor like Tora but there was a feeling she couldn't explain. It was true what she told Orie though. She wasn't planning on giving up Tora.

Chiyo found herself always wanting to find new things about the young genius businessman.

You'll hurt yourself in the end, her mind warned her.

She believed there was some good in Tora she could uncover. The emotions she saw in London could be for her one day.

"Good night ma'am. Welcome the dark diamond palace. Would you like a table or do you have a reservation?" The hostess questioned as always even though she knew what Chiyo was here for.

"I have a reservation under Tora Iragashi," Chiyo answered.

The hostess didn't have to check the book as the manager had told her to pay special attention to Tora and his guest. "Right this way please. You look stunning as always miss Chiyo. We hope you enjoy your time here."

Chiyo just smiled at the hostess words. She let out a breath she didn't know she was holding as she being lead to Tora's table.

Tonight it will be good. It's our first dinner date. Just forget everything else and enjoy the night, she thought mentally preparing herself.

Chiyo felt her heart stop when looked and noticed a group of young heiress standing around a table and in the middle she could clearly see Tora smiling.

What was she expecting? She couldn't change Tora so fast and she couldn't ask him to change. Why would she expect from someone who was known for flirting to chase the women away? She had decided to fight for Tora as she stated back in London and she knew that it would be hard. Chiyo just wasn't expecting the painful feeling she was experiencing right now.

Who was she kidding? She liked Tora. She liked his mysterious nature and how he did whatever he wanted. Couldn't he just show that he was trying too? He didn't have to feel anything for her right now. She couldn't expect him to. Chiyo was jealous.

Why couldn't he look at her like he did towards Misaki?

She cast her eyes down to the stunning floor sad. It's okay as long as he keeps me by his side.

Meanwhile.

"These annoying pest," Tora thought to himself. He didn't want to cause a scene and wished these women would take a hint and leave but here they were still bothering him. He could feel his tolerance slowly slipping away.

Why was that woman so late?

"For the last time, I am waiting for my fiance."

"But Tora I want to have some fun," One woman said.

Tora sent her a glare that would make anyone wish they never existed. The women took that as there queue to leave. Not bothering to watch them scamper he now sawed Chiyo standing near the table with the hostess.

He fixed his jacket ready to greet her when he noticed her expression.

What was wrong?
