1 Take my home

The wind was howling, the night seemed to grow more darker than ever. But for our little beauty Ms. Nanami Momozone the day couldn't get more bad. Her father had run away to some other country as his debt had been increasing ridiculously.

She was alone at home when the people from who her father had taken money came and asked her to move out of the house as the selling of the house would repay her father's debt. When she asked how, they replied that this was written by her father before leaving the city. Nanami was devasted as she didn't have a mother and was a simple 16 year high school going girl. The worst part of it was that she wanted to kill her father at that moment itself, as she had no place and relatives,she knew of in the city of Jade.

She was cursing her luck and her father when she heard the barking of a dog and the shouting of a man. She went to find that on a tree a man was clinging on to a branch. The dog below was barking furiously and the man was scared to death. He showed no intention to get down the tree until the dog was shooed off.

"Lovely lady, please save me!!! This demon creature is going to devour me like a hot dog. Save me and I promise I will help you in return." Nanami was not a greedy and selfish girl but was a one with the kindest, one cold find in Jade. She saved the man and went to her place where she had kept all her clothes and belongings.

The man sat next to her and started to tell he about his encounter with the 'demon'. Nanami was amused at the thought that a man of 26 years was afraid of something such as a dog.

In the course of time she eventually told him about her own sad tale and how the person who she called 'father' but never meant it, had betrayed her. She told him that he was an alcoholic, drug addict and she was glad that he sold the house and not her to settle the debt.

The man introduced himself as Mikage and told her that some people aren't worth the be given attention and must be forgiven and forgotten.

Suddenly he offered her something out of blue, "Take my home". He knelt down and kissed her on her forehead and gave her instructions to go to his house. Nanami was confused but Mikage assured her saying that, " it has been a long time, if I go now Tomoe is sure to kill me and cut me into pieces. But now you are the mistress of my house. Take care Ms. Momozone for your life is going to change forever. Tell them that Mikage has send you. They will trust you as soon as they see my mark on your forehead. Farewell for now dear."
