Eiri enters that jewelry store Tohma had told him about earlier. The stores name was Seguchi's Jewelers. Eiri couldn't help but laugh to himself realizing why Tohma had sent him here. He turned to leave when he noticed the most beautiful ring he had ever seen in his life. It was 18-karat yellow gold with three rubies all arranged in the most elegant design he had ever seen. The cuts of the jewels fit together perfectly. He looked at the price. It was a bit more than he wanted to spend but decided that this was the best way to tell Shuichi his feelings without having to say too much. He asked the clerk if he could see it. When he had it in his hand, he could see himself giving it to Shuichi and asking him to marry him. He had fallen in love with it and had to have it. The clerk asked him if he wanted it engraved. He was kind of hesitant, but said, "Yes please. Would you please have the words 'I love you' put on?" The clerk agreed and engraved the words. When Eiri left he felt like he was floating on air and decided to go shopping for flowers and food to help with romantic evening, for he was going to ask him tonight.
(Meanwhile and N.G. Studios.)
"Shuichi what's wrong? You wont sit still," said Hiro getting very agitated.
"I'll make him settle down," said K while pulling a gun from its' casing.
"There will be no need for that. I am sure that Shuichi just had to much coffee this morning. Isn't that right Shindo?" said the very nervous Mr. Sakano. "So you can put your gun away." K put his gun away but not before giving him a dirty look.
"Maybe something wonderful happened between him and Mr. Yuki. But what it could be I don't have the slightest clue. I mean, The only thing they haven't done is get married." At that Shindo instantly turned red. "So, does that mean that he has proposed?"
Everyone was staring at him. Shuichi shock his head and said, "Not yet, but he is going to."
Everyone had a curious face on. Hiro was the first to say something. "If he hasn't yet, how do you he is going to unless he told you."
Shuichi turned red again. "Well, I kind of heard him talking to himself while on this computer last night. He doesn't know that I was listening, but I was. And I heard him say that he was going to. I just don't know when."
Everyone smiled. They were all happy for him. Then K said out of the blue, "You mustn't let him know you know now that you have kept it a secret from him. If he finds out, he may get mad at you and never ask you or break off the engagement. Shuichi, do you think that you can keep this from him?
Shuichi looked shocked at what K had said. He wasn't sure if he could keep this a secret or not. But, he knew he had to try. So he nodded his head and they got back to work. The whole time they were working Shuichi was wondering what Eiri was doing and when he was going to ask him. Shuichi hated not knowing.
