The next morning, Mio woke up when the alarm clock rang. She supported herself with her left hand and rubbed her eyes with her right. She looked around her and found no trace of Ritsu.
"Ritsu~." Mio called out to see whether her lover was at the bathroom or changing room but there's no response from Ritsu. Mio got out from the bed and walked out from the bedroom to find Ritsu.
"Ritsu?" Mio asked again, and there's still no response.
"Where the heck did Ritsu go?" Mio thought while looking for Ritsu at the kitchen, bathroom and dressing room. She suddenly heard some noise coming out from the study room. Mio was scared and she didn't know what to do.
"What s-should I do? I m-might j-just call Mugi. No, later Mugi will call her bodyguard and create a fuss. I sure Ritsu won't like this. I guess I have to open this door by myself." Mio gulped and walked closer to the door with a golf club that she found lying on the floor.
"So here goes nothing." Mio mumbled and open the door as fast as she could.
"Stand right there! I already called the police and if you are smart enough, you better surrender now!" Mio shouted but when she opened her eyes, she saw no one but Ritsu at there. She walked towards the study desk where Ritsu was laying.
"Ritsu?" There's still no response from Ritsu. Mio quickly walked to check whether Ritsu still alive. When she found out Ritsu was just fall asleep while doing her work, she was relieved.
"Baka Ritsu, I told you how many times not to sleep at here, you are going to catch a cold." Mio quickly put on a jacket that she found lying on the floor.
"Mhmm, Mio~" Ritsu said out softly and made Mio's face turns to as red as a tomato in one second. Mio saw Ritsu slightly moved her body and slowly getting up.
"Mio?" Ritsu supported herself and looked up at Mio. Ritsu hairs were now falling freely and a few of her shirt's button came off.
"Oh, god! Ritsu is so hot right now!" Mio thought.
"Mio?" Ritsu face was close to Mio when Mio realized. Mio quickly stepped a few steps back.
"Oh, R-ritsu. How many times do I have to tell you not to sleep at here? You are gonna get a cold." Mio said so that Ritsu won't notice her face.
"Oh. I fell asleep. Haha, sorry about that. I just want to finish this as fast as possible. So that, you know ; that I could spend a meaningful time with you tonight." Ritsu quickly cleaned up the mess.
"Baka, you need to be healthy to spend time with me and every time you be by my side is meaningful."
"Mio." Ritsu pulled Mio closer to her and gave her a gentle kiss.
"Ritsu, you better go wash yourself up." Mio broke apart the kiss and walked to the kitchen.
"Okay." Ritsu stretched herself and went to bathroom to wash herself up.
"Today is the big day! Don't mess up, Ritsu!" Ritsu thought as she splashed water at her face. She quickly took her bath and wore a suit. She tiptoed to Mio's back and hugged Mio.
"Mmm, smell nice."
"Of course its smell nice, it's our breakfast."
"No, I mean you smell nice." Ritsu gently placed a kiss at Mio's collarbone.
"Just go and sit down, don't disturb me preparing our breakfast." Mio said with the usual stern tone of hers.
"Mou, you are not fun." Ritsu walked and sat at her usual place, exactly opposite of Mio. Mio quickly put a plate with sunny side up egg and a hotdog, with a cup of coffee in front of Ritsu.
"Smell nice. Well then, ittadakimasu!" Ritsu began to dig in her food.
"Ritsu, eat slowly, if not you are going to choke yourself." Just after Mio finished her sentence, Ritsu choked herself.
"W-water." Mio quickly get a glass of water and passed it to Ritsu. Ritsu gulped down the whole glass of water and felt relieved.
"Pheww, I thought I was going to die back then. Thanks, Mio! You save my life." Ritsu hugged Mio.
"Ritsu, go wash your mouth and get ready. We are going in 5 more minutes." Mio hugged back.
"Okay." Ritsu let go of Mio and walked towards the study room but just before she disappeared into the room, she turned back.
"Mio, no matter how many times I look at you, you are so sexy in that suit of yours." Ritsu grinned and quickly walked away just before Mio scolded her.
"Mou, Ritsu! If you have time to flirt, why don't you go and get ready now?" Mio blushed furiously as she washed the dishes. She looked at herself for the one last time in front of the mirror, just to make sure she is all set to go.
"Mio, I'm ready. Let's go." Ritsu quickly got out from the room and walked towards the door to wear her shoes.
"Wait, your necktie is hanging at your neck."
"Well, you see; that old man of mine called me just now and told me there's an emergency meeting, so I was kind of rush out and didn't look at the mirror."
"You should make sure you are good looking before you go to work. This is to make sure everyone has a good impression of you. Let me help you with it." Mio quickly help Ritsu with her tie.
"Your hair also messy. Where did you put that bottle of wax that I bought you last month?"
"It's at the room."
"Wait for me." Mio quickly walked into the room and took the bottle of wax with her. She quickly helped Ritsu with her hair just before Ritsu could ever protest.
"There's more like it." Mio washed her hands as soon as she finished with Ritsu's hair. Ritsu looked into the mirror and found her hair fall down perfectly and naturally.
"Thanks a lot, Mio. Come on, we are going to be late now." Ritsu gave a quick peck on Mio's cheek and ran toward the parking lot with Mio walked with her head low behind.
"Come on, Mio. We are going to be late. I don't want our special night to be ruin by our work."
"Yes, I'm coming." Mio walked quickly and soon both of them are on the way to work.
"Mio, later please help me have 2 to 3 hours of free time in the afternoon, after lunch."
"Let me see your schedule first. Okay, you are totally free after lunch."
"Okay, thanks. I need take care of some matter so you just stay at the office, Mugi will be going to accompany you."
"Where are you going?"
"I just need to settle something. I will be back at 3pm. So don't worry about me. We're here." Ritsu quickly planted a kiss on Mio's lips before got out from the car.
"O-okay." Mio also got down from the car and both of them walked to their office.
"Today I will be counting on you, Akiyama-san." Ritsu spoke with her usual tone when she was at work and walked into her office.
"Of course, Tainaka-san." Mio bowed before she sat at her own place. She glanced at Ritsu direction and only found Ritsu was doing her best.
"Just what is in her mind?" Mio thought as she sighed.
On the other hand, Azusa was not having any luck with Yui too. Azusa was trying her best to approach Yui so that she would know what's Yui up to but Yui keep avoiding her with all kind of excuses that she could think of.
"Yui, what are you hiding from me?" Azusa finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Eh? I don't know what you are talking about."
"Yui, stop pretending. I'm fed up by all these secrets you are hiding from me. I feel like I don't know you at all. I feel like you don't love me any-a-anymore." Azusa finally broke down and cried.
"E-eh? Azunyan, please don't think like this. I promise you will know all of it tonight. Please believe me." Yui quickly walked and hugged Azusa to comfort her.
"R-really?"
"Really. Azunyan, you should better than anyone that I love you."
"Yui, I love you too." Azusa snuggled into Yui's embrace. They enjoyed their little moment but soon it's interrupted by Yui's phone.
"Sorry, I go answer my phone." Yui quickly found her phone and answer it.
"Hi, how can I help you? Eh, you mean now? Okay, meet you at the usual place." Yui quickly hung up the phone and walked into the dressing room.
"Yui, what are you doing?"
"I'm changing my clothes. I will be going out for awhile and I will be back at 5." Yui quickly rushed out from the room and before she went out, she gave a quick peck on Azusa lips.
"Bye, Azunyan. I will call you later." Yui quickly rushed out and closed the door just before Azusa can say anything.
"I better start doing the house chores." Azusa said as she walked into the rooms. Yui was running as fast she could to the usual café that Mugi owned.
"Welcome! Ara, Yui-chan." Mugi walked towards Yui.
"Ui, Yui is here." Mugi called out to her fiancé.
"Onee-chan, long time no see." Ui hugged Yui as soon as she finish wiped her hands.
"Ui, is Ricchan here?"
"Yui!" Ritsu called out to Yui. Yui, Mugi and Ui walked and sat down at the table.
"Ricchan, why so early?"
"It's already 1, for god sake. You called this early?"
"Sorry, I was too occupied with my thoughts."
"Well, let's get to our plan."
"Okay."
"Okay, Mugi. You go distract Mio while Ui distract Azusa."
"Yes, madam!" Mugi and Ui saluted Ritsu.
"While in the mean time, me and Yui are going to do some finishing touch of our plan."
"But I thought you don't know anything about Yui-chan's plan?" Mugi asked cause yesterday Ritsu was the one that asked Yui for her abnormal act.
"This is because if I didn't ask so, Mio and Azusa are going to suspect me too and I can't let them suspect me."
"Oh I see. So onee-chan and Ritsu-san already knew each other plan?" Ritsu and Yui nodded at Ui's question.
"Later Ui, bring Azunyan to buy something for her to wear and help me to invite Azunyan to the dinner . I am going to buy a tuxedo with Ricchan later. Before you going to the shop, send a mail to me so that I wont appear in front of you two."
"Yes, onee-chan."
"So, team proposal, lets go!" Ritsu said with high spirit. Mugi and Ui closed the shop for today. Four of them split up to complete their task. Mugi drove Ui to Yui's apartment to be with Azusa while she drove towards Ritsu's company.
"Mio-chan." Mugi called out to Mio who was working hard.
"Eh, Mugi."
"Mio-chan, please accompany me to some café. Ui is busy so I think that I should find you."
"But I am working right now."
"I already inform Ricchan and Kouchirou-san and they say it's okay for you to have a day off. So, let's go and beside, Ricchan want me to bring you to buy some dress."
"Well, I guess it's okay." Mio packed her things and went shopping with Mugi.
"Mio-chan, try this on. " Mugi shoveled the dress into Mio's hand and pushed Mio into the fitting room.
"Mu-mugi. Do I look good?" Mio came out from the fitting room with the dress on, which is a long black sleeveless dress with a shawl covering her bare shoulder. ( it's kinda like the one she wear in the Don't say lazy but much more longer and without the hand and sock.)
"Mio-chan, you look wonderful! You should wear this to the dinner tonight."
"How do you know about the dinner?"
"Well, because I'm the one that organize it."
"Oh, Mugi. This is expensive."
"Don't worry, I will pay for you. Ricchan said she will pay back during the dinner." Mugi paid for the dress when Mio is changing to her suit.
"Let's go to the other place." Mugi and Mio soon walked on the street to find a nice café for them to relax. On the other hand, Ui was standing in front of Yui's apartment.
"Coming!" Azusa's voice can be heard from inside right after Ui pressed the doorbell. Azusa began to live with Yui right after she graduate from University.
"Ui-chan?"
"Hi, Azusa-chan. Are you free right now?"
"Yes, why?"
"Well, Mugi is busy with her things and the café is close for today. So I was thinking to spend some time with you since we barely even have time for ourselves."
"Well, okay. Please come in. I need to change my clothes."
"Okay, sorry for the intrusion." Ui sat in the living room, patiently waiting for Azusa.
"So where are we going?"
"How about we go buy some dress since you need it tonight?"
"Why?"
"Oh I forgot. Onee-chan wants to invite you to a dinner. She is busy with something so she asks me to help you pick a new dress for you."
"Oh, I see. So let's go."
"Okay." Ui and Azusa walked slowly on the street and talked about how they were doing recently.
"I heard form Mugi that this shop has many nice looking dress. "
"Oh, lets go in and see." Azusa and Ui walked into the shop. They looked carefully to see whether there's a dress suitable for Azusa or not.
"Here it is, Azusa-chan."
"Huh?" Uui gave Azusa a white dress.
"Go try it on, I think this dress suit you very much." Azusa nodded her head and walked into the fitting room.
"Ui, I'm done."
"Come out and let me see."
"O-okay." Azusa slowly walked out from the room. Ui was amazed about how nice it is the dress on Azusa, it's just like the dress is designed for Azusa. Azusa stood in front of Ui, wearing a white long silky dress, which also showed her bare shoulder, with a white scarf on her shoulder.
"Azusa-chan, you looked fantastic! Onee-chan will be so happy about it!" Ui said and quickly paid for the dress.
"But it's expensive."
"It's alright. As long as you are happy, I will pay for you. You can return the money later."
"Thanks Ui!" Azusa hugged Ui tightly.
"Now let's go meet up with Mugi. It seems that Mio-san and her were at the café nearby."
"Okay, wait for me to get change." Ui smiled gently at Azusa and sent a mail to Yui when Azusa was changing. In the mean time, Ritsu and Yui were walking towards a jewelry shop that Ritsu's dad's friend owned.
"Wait a moment." Yui stopped and took out her phone.
"What's wrong, Yui?"
"Ui sent a mail and said Azunyan look splendid in that dress. I can't wait to see Azunyan!."
"Oh, you need to finish your task before tonight. So come on, don't waste your time."
"Okay." Yui and Ritsu walked into the shop.
"May I see Morishima-san?" Ritsu talked to a salesgirl.
"Who are you?" The salesgirl treated Ritsu and Yui rudely since Ritsu and Yui changed into their casual clothes which make them didn't look as rich as they do.
"I just want to meet Morichima-san. You shouldn't ask too much as a salesgirl."
"No one is allowed to meet our boss if they are not VIP customer."
"Oh, hi there! Tainaka-san!"
"Morishima-san, please; just call me Ritsu. You know I don't like all this formality." Ritsu took off her sunglasses and looked at the salesgirl.
"I believe that your workers are kind of rude towards the customers." Ritsu grinned at the salesgirl who was currently shocked and didn't know what to do.
"I'm sorry, Ritsu-san. I will scold them later."
"Okay, and this is my friend."
"I'm Hirasawa Yui."
"Oh, you are Hirasawa-san's daughter. Welcome, it's a pleasure to meet with you. Please come in, I had prepare all you want."
"Okay, lets go Yui." Yui and Ritsu followed Morishima and sat in a room.
"So here is the newest design and the highest rating of the diamond ring in our store." Morishima showed a cased which had a few diamond rings inside.
"Oh, this nice." Ritsu pointed towards one ring that is simple and with a few diamond on it.
"I like this one." Yui pointed towards one of the ring that had a cat design on it and the diamonds as the cat's eyes.
"So I guess we will take both of this. I want about this size." Ritsu showed a model that she used to measure Mio's finger while she was asleep.
" Mine is about this size." Yui did the same too.
"Okay, I will go help you to adjust it."
"Wait a minute; can you carved the name on the ring?" Yui asked.
"Of course I can, it will take just a few minutes."
"I want to carve these on the ring." Yui pulled out a paper and gave it to Morishima.
"I also want to do it but not this one, I will do it on the wedding ring."
"Eh, Ricchan, I also want to do it on the wedding ring and I already think of it."
"Yui, you are too excited about this."
"That's all?"
"Oh yes, Morishima-san. That's all."
"Then I will go do it right now."
"Okay, we are going to come back later since we have something to do." Ritsu stood up and walked out from the shop with Yui behind.
"Yui, I don't know your family was this rich."
"I'm not rich. My dad run a small company which selling sport equipment and also invest in diamond business. My dad also invests in your dad company. So our family can say it's quite famous in sport and diamond industry. "
"Oh I see. Ah, here it is. The shop that I bought my tuxedo." Ritsu walked into the shop with Yui behind.
"Welcome, Ritsu-san." The workers bowed when Ritsu walked in.
"Oh, stop all this. This is my friend."
"I am Hirasawa Yui."
"Welcome, Yui-san."
"So, come on. I will help you choose yours tuxedo."
"It's okay. I will pick myself. I want to see yours."
"Okay, wait for me." Ritsu walked towards a salesgirl and whispered something to her ears. The salesgirl nodded her head and led the way.
"Here I am." Ritsu walked out from the fitting room as she was wearing a black tuxedo with a maroon tie.
"You look great. Now I am going to try mine." Yui quickly walked towards the fitting room while the salesgirl was helping Ritsu with her outfit.
"I'm finished!" Yui literally jumped out from the fitting room, wearing a white tuxedo with a black tie.
"Wow, you look really cool."
"Hehe, thanks."
"Let's get change and pay for these. We still need to go to the jewelry shop and also the restaurant to run a final check."
"Yes, Captain Ritsu!" Yui quickly walked into the fitting room and get changed. After that both of them finished their task, they went back home separately.
"Mio, I'm home!"
"Ritsu, welcome back!"
"Mio, let's get ready. You don't want to be late for the dinner, do you?"
"But it's 5 now. We still have plenty of time for ourselves." Mio pouted.
"Oh, you know that I can't resist any request from you when you make that face." Ritsu kissed Mio passionately.
"I know this is early, but don't you want everything to be perfect?" Ritsu said again when they broke apart their kisses.
"Okay, I am going to take my bath."
"Okay, I will stay here and watch TV. " Ritsu turned on the TV. But Mio didn't saw that grin on Ritsu's face when she turned on the TV.
"Azunyan, I'm home." Yui walked and sat down on the couch.
"Welcome back, Yui."
"Azunyan power recharge!" Yui suddenly jumped up and snuggled against Azusa.
"Mou, Yui. Stop it."
"Hehehe, lets watch TV together." Yui pulled Azusa closed to her on the couch. After an hour, Azusa stood up.
"I think we better get ready. It's 6 now."
"Okay, I want to take bath with you."
"Yui, you should know that its-"Azusa stopped when she saw the puppy eyes that Yui made.
"I guess its okay once in a while."
"Yeah! Let's go now!" Yui pulled Azusa and rushed towards the bathroom. After they get ready, they were about to go to the restaurant now. Yui drove while Azusa sat beside her. Yui made sure she hid the ring well.
"Ne, Azunyan."
"Yes?"
"You look splendid in that dress."
"Thanks, Ui picked it for me."
"Oh, well later I will need to thank her."
"Why aren't you wearing a dress too? Why you style your hair like a boy?"
"Because I think it's cool." Yui smiled and winked at Azusa. Azusa slightly shook her head and smiled gently. On the other hand, where Ritsu and Mio were heading towards the restaurant too.
"Mio, you look hot and sexy in that dress."
"Thanks."
"Aww, how cute my Mio-chuan is, blushing from my compliment."
"Ritsu!"
"Haha, just kidding. You no need to get so serious about it and here we are. It seems like Yui, Azusa, Ui and Mugi are here."
"Oh, I guess you're right." Mio saw her friends' cars were parked outside of the restaurant.
"Hi, Ricchan, Mio-chan!" Yui shouted when Ritsu and Mio walked in.
"My my, you two look splendid today." Mugi smiled.
"Where's others?" Mio asked.
"We are the one attending to the dinner and today Mugi book the whole restaurant just for us.
"Thanks Mugi." Mio said and hold Mugi's hand.
"You are welcome."
"So let's eat." Ritsu said and they enjoy their dinner very much.
"Excuse us for awhile." Yui said while Ritsu standing up.
"Where are you going, Yui?" Azusa asked but Yui couldn't hear her since she already walked with Ritsu.
"Do you know what's going on?" Azusa asked Mugi and Ui.
"Who knows? Shouldn't you two be a little bit patient?" Ui smiled gently.
"Something seems wrong here." Mio thought. Suddenly, the lights all out.
"Kyaa!" Mio screamed out loud. Suddenly she felt someone hold her hand. A light strike at her and Mio adjusted her eyes to the sudden light and saw Ritsu standing there, with a gentle smile on her face.
"W-what are you doing?" Mio asked but still not taking back her hand. Ritsu slowly kneeled down on one knee.
"Mio, my princess. Please listen to me."
"What are you doing?"
"Mio, I know that I'm always slacking around, not responsible, tease you a lot and also always made you worry about me but there's one thing that I am confident with, which is I am the only one that love you the most in this whole wide world, heck, in this whole universe! So, Akiyama Mio, will you marry me?" Ritsu asked and opened a box to show the ring to Mio.
"R-ritsu, you d-do this for me?"
"Yes, my princess. I am your faithful knight but this faithful knight of yours wants to be a faithful prince of yours. So will you let this knight has a chance to prove himself worthy?"
"Yes, I will marry you." Mio's tears slowly flow out from her eyes.
"You can say no. I won't force you to this. You, j-just d-don't cry."
"Baka, I say yes."
"I say you can no. W-what? You say yes?" Mio nodded her head. Ritsu hugged Mio tightly.
"Oh thanks! But why are you crying?"
"This is tear if happiness, baka!"
"Oh, Mio. You make me the happiest woman in this universe!"
"I should say that." Mio and Ritsu kissed each other, ignoring the fact that their friends were watching them.
"I love you, Mio."
"Love you too, Ritsu."
"Ehem, I don't want to interrupt you love birds but do anyone see Yui-chan?" Mugi wiped her nosebleed while asking Yui's whereabouts.
"That Yui, she should come out right now. Yui!" After Ritsu called out, the light went off again but Mio didn't scream this time because Ritsu was hugging her and knowing Ritsu was by her side made her feel safe.
"Azunyan!" A light shone on Yui when Yui shouted out Azusa's nickname.
"Yui? Why are you doing on the stage?" Azusa asked as she adjusted her eyes to the light.
"Azunyan, listen to this song!" Yui shouted as she slowly tuned her guitar. Yui inhaled a deep breath and start sang.
i Love you from my heart
i Love you forever with you
At the beginning and the end of 1 day
You're always by my side, everyday is like that
When I wake up, you've poured some hot coffee, waiting for me
So I hugged your left arm
I counted the days on my fingers until when we could meet
By now, there are less of the days when we can't meet
Who expected a happiness like this? You and I, that's right, fell in love
I love you, it's the first time I felt so
I love you, forever and ever, my feelings won't change
Only I know about your innocent smile
That you're unexpectedly spoiled
You're honest like a kid; guys are kind of cool
But I tease them for being good-looking (giggle)
Please don't let go of my hand at anytime
I vowed to fall in love for the last time
Shall I still keep it a secret now? Acting all girly by myself past 0AM
I love you, it's the first time I felt so
I love you, forever and ever, my feelings won't change
Finding out about you, I found out about myself
Satisfying each other where we're lacking, the two of us are one, right?
I love you, tomorrow and the day after, too
I love you, surely I'll call this, 'happiness'
i Love you, it's the first time I felt so
I love you, forever and ever, my feelings won't change
"How was it, Azunyan?" Yui asked happily.
"Y-yui."
"It's 'I love', sang by an artist which have the same name as you."
"It's s-splendid."
"Azunyan, I am going to be serious, okay? So please listen to what I say." Azusa nodded her head.
"Azunyan, I know I'm childish and always come up with stupid ideas. I also always lazy around and always relax. I also kind of useless when it come to guitar playing, I'm not as skillful as you and I'm not as serious as you. But I love you more than anyone else. I love you more than I love cakes and sweets. I really love you and I want to be with you forever. So, Nakano Azusa, will you always be with me and share the rest of your life with me?" Yui slowly walked down from the stage and kneeled down on one foot in front of Azusa.
"Y-yui." Azusa choked on her tears.
"Will you let me prove myself worthy for just one time?"
"…."
"Will you marry me?" Yui opened the box and showed the ring to Azusa.
"Yes, I do! I want to be with you forever and share the rest of my life with you!" Azusa nodded her head and let Yui put the ring on her finger.
"I will never disappoint you, my koneko. I'm sorry I hide all these the past few weeks because I want to make it a surprise." Yui gently placed a kiss on Azusa's forehead.
"What is this?" Azusa saw something was craved under the ring. She took it out and read it.
"Yui and Azusa Forever." Azusa slowly said out those words that carved on the ring and tears flowed out from her eyes once more.
"It's a happy ending." Mugi said while hold Ui's hands tightly.
"Yes, it is."
"By the way, Yui and I want to tell you that our wedding will be the same date and same place with Mugi."
"Why?" Mio asked.
"This is because it will be grand, awesome and we can play as a band!" Yui said excitingly, still helping Azusa wiped her tears.
"Oh, okay." Mio nodded her head.
"So, lets enjoy our meal and plan for our wedding. We must make it the most awesome wedding ever." Ritsu said happily. Everyone nodded their head. It's indeed a happy ending for all of them.
