"Thank you."

The girl sitting on the bench next to him opened her eyes and glanced at him.

Her eyes sparkled with excitement.

"It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Rene." She smiled at him.

How strange, why does she know his name?

"No, the pleasure is all mine, but I'm afraid I don't know remember your name."

She giggled.

"Oh, we've never met." She slid towards the end of the bench and slowly got up.

"Until now." She walked away towards the door and Tamaki stood up and began towards her retreating figure.

"No need to follow. We will be seeing much of each other from now on."

Tamaki stopped as he and the rest of the people in the room watched the mysterious girl leave.

Tamaki turned towards Kyouya, who was looking over the week's profits on a table in the corner.

"Who was that?" Tamaki asked, still dazed.

Without looking up from his laptop, he replied placidly. " Transfer student: Cerise Grant, scholarship student, class 2-A." Kyouya glanced momentarily at Tamaki.

"The strange part is that her past is very vague, but she transferred from a private institution in France with very good recommendations."

"from France..."

"Young Lord, welcome home." The henchmen said in unison.

"Mmm..." Kasanoda walked past them slowly, staring at the ground.

Tetsuya walked towards Kasanoda.

"Young Lord, how was your day?"

"Mmm..." Kasanoda glanced at him for a second before continuing to stare at the ground and walking towards the house.

"We have a guest coming to the house..." Tetsuya finished softly as he and the rest of the henchmen stared at Kasanoda's back as he went into the house.

How strange, Kasanoda is acting very unusual today.

When Kasanoda got into the house, his father, Masaru Kasanoda, was waiting for him.

"I see that you are home, Ritsu." His father said to him. "I have something to tell you. Come, sit down with me." He motioned towards the seats.

Kasanoda looked at his father and sat down.

"From now on, a special guest will reside in this household with us." His father began to talk, but was hesitant.

"From which gang , or is he new?" Kasanoda asked.

"None, she is the daughter of a very good friend of your mother's." His father watched as Kasanoda nodded. "And, she is your future wife."

"MAHH!" Kasanoda yelled, so intimidating that even his own father cringed and backed away somewhat.

"Why don't I know about this?" Kasanoda stood up suddenly and glared at his father.

"Well, I didn't know until just a few hours ago either, apparently your mother didn't feel the need of informing us." His father shook his head. "But, she will be coming soon and you will be married to her."

"I refuse!"

His father looked at him sadly, "Please, it was your mother's last wish, for you to marry this girl."

Kasanoda silenced after that, knowing full well that he couldn't say no. Refusing this marriage would be a disgrace on his mother's grave.

So instead, without a word, he left and went to his room.

When inside, he closed the doors and slid down onto the floor, defeated and miserable.

How can he marry a complete stranger? He was still in love with Haruhi.

Suddenly, Kasanoda remembered the mysterious girl that kissed him today.

He mentally berated himself. How can he think of someone that was probably dared, or even paid to kiss him.

He's still in love with Haruhi. Think of Haruhi. Even if she never thought of him as anything more than a friend, she was still the one he likes. The only one that wasn't scared of him.

Then, a thought occurred to him. If she was scared of him, then she can stop the marriage from happening, and his mother's name would still be honored.

When this girl comes, he must be the most menacing yakuza on earth.
