Athrun takes Kira to his new office where everything was arranged like Kira requested.

"Listen, Kira. If you were not the brother of the princess, I would have kicked you out of here."

"Tough luck, Mr. President. Whether you like it or not, I AM her brother." Kira crossed his arms and took a seat at his desk.

"I know. She's so unlucky to have you as her brother."

"And I'm so unlucky to have her as my sister."

"Oh really? Why do you say that?"

"For one, she has the worst sense of direction as far as I know. Second, she has the world's hottest temper. You could probably boil water when you're standing 5 feet away from her."

"Come on, Kira. I'm sure she's not THAT bad."

"You're defending her? Well, I better start calling you the Miracle Guy."

"Miracle Guy?"

"Yup. For the first time in ORB's history, someone actually fell for her… and it's none other than Mr. Zala!"

"What?" Athrun's face turned from human-color to Ferrari-color.

"And now your face is red. You can't deny the obvious, Mr.Zala."

"I am not denying nor am I affirming your accusations… and stop calling me Zala. I'm Athrun. A-T-H-R-U-N!"

"Alright! Alright! No need to yell, Mr. Athrun!"

"Listen, do me a favor and just call me Athrun."

"Alright…"

"I'll be leaving before you tease me again. I'll be in my office when you need me."

"I understand… but I need to ask you something…" Kira looks at him seriously.

"What is it?" Athrun turns pale at the sight of Kira's serious face.

"Where is your office?" Kira becomes SD (Super-deformed, like Ginji Amano)

"Ummm…" Athrun sighs a sigh of relief "Right above of your office."

"Okay… see ya!"

That afternoon, Kira was half conscious after going through a pile of paperworks 2 feet high.

"That Athrun… all these paperworks must be his way of getting revenge on me."

He was about to black out when someone entered the room.

"Oh… excuse me? Is this the vice-president's room?" the woman asked him.

"Yeah… what do you want?" Kira answered, struggling to get up to peek over the pile of paper..

"The princess sent me. She said that a certain Kira Yamato would probably be needing help right about now."

"Okay…" his hands were wobbly while trying to get up. "If you came an hour earlier, I would have needed help. Right now, all I need is some rest and a bunch of paramedics."

"Paramedics?" the woman approached Kira and stood at the right side of the desk.

"Yup… paramedics." He shifted his gaze towards the woman on the side of his desk. His eyes froze and locked on the woman and his pale face returned to life.

"Are you okay? Do you seriously need paramedics?" the woman leaned down, her hair covering a part of Kira's face.

"Just kidding." Kira sat up and his face turned red. He took a look at the door and was surprised by what he saw.

"Well well… It's your turn to blush, Mr. Yamato!" Athrun laughed at Kira.

"What's so funny, Athrun?"

"I'm just recalling how much you teased me earlier. I guess this is payback."

"Whatever…" Kira was getting annoyed when another person entered the room.

"Oh, Lacus, you're here already?" Cagalli asked the woman that came into Kira's office.

"Lacus?" Kira turned his head.

"Yes. That's my name, Lacus Clyne." Lacus smiled at Kira.

"Oh… nice to meet you Ms. Clyne…" Kira's brain almost stopped working when he got a glimpse of Athrun's face.

'Time for revenge…' he thought, "Athrun, your face is red."

"What?" Athrun ran out of the office in shame.

"What was that all about?" Cagalli asked.

"I don't know." Lacus answered.

"So…" Cagalli diverted her attention to Kira, " I see you met your new secretary."

"Secretary?"

"Yeah, she's a friend of mine before you even came here in ORB. She was looking for a job to pass some time, so I gave her this job."

"Okay…"

"Listen, Lacus. When you see him slacking off in the middle of work, feel free to give him a good whack on the head."

"I don't think that would be a nice thing to do…" Lacus said.

"Well, I'm off. Please take care of my little brother for me." Cagalli waved goodbye as she left the room.

"Little brother…?" Kira stood in disbelief.

"You know, she is more like your younger sister…" Lacus told him.

"That's what I've been trying to tell her for the past year and she won't listen." Kira sighed. Lacus giggled. Kira just smiled back.

"Looks like the two of you are opposites."

"Complete opposites if you ask me… anyway, if you're her friend since who-knows-when, why didn't I see you when I came here?"

"Actually, we met at the PLANTS more than a year ago. Then she had to return here."

"I see… I'm just wondering… how are you able keep your self from going insane after prolonged exposure to her?"

"I don't know. She was at the PLANTS for only a few months. What about you? You were with here for the entire year, weren't you?"

"Yeah, you're right… and I'm afraid I won't be able to keep my sanity before the week ends…"

"I'm sure you can, Mr. Yamato."

"Have mercy on me and call me Kira…"

"Alright, I'll call you Kira."

"That's better… Thanks."

"No problem, Mr. Yamato."

"I thought you just said you'll call me Kira?"

"I was just joking, Kira. There's no need to get all worked up."

"You were?"
