Continuation....

< Meet Kun >

" The time has come! bring it on~ "

[ dumbfounded ] Kun always arrives at dangerous times....

" hm~ hmm~ I'm profoundly dissatisfied tch...tch what are you gonna do now Miyano~ " Acting like he was lecturing a bad kid.

" Kun.....just when are you gonna call our family's name correctly? nonetheless you've arrived, I didn't sense you "

" I'm just joking here you all look so

serious here e~ "

Kun came from a wealthy family in China. He was a fine young man, two years younger than Naoko. Because of the inheritance his elder brothers were already given a place for them and finally have his own. He is one friend of Naoko from China and was known for being a pervasive person. He became one of Naoko's business partners and a collaborator on every project when Kun's published. While being away from his country and company he owns a small business in Chinatown since he lives nearby, it is a restaurant but the underground is a secret passageway incase of emergency also specialized for both him and Naoko to use. When his restaurant became popular in Chinatown, many people lined up and others made reservations. He'd noticed one day that there was a gang resting in the front outside their place and thought that Naoko was having trouble dealing with gangs, even meeting their boss. Kun decides to start an organization but when he introduces himself he clarifies that when someone asks who their boss is, they'll say his pseudonym.

Kun and Naoko met after his recovery; then went to China for touring. Naoko receives a flier of a company business like his, and commercial he saw on the television, because of curiosity he asked his Secretary on contacting their service and Secretary Amasawa said that it was a coincidence that the CEO also wanted to make an appointment with him because he knew that Miyazono's company is a high standard and biggest shares in Japan. Kun wanted to meet at his small café near their building, when Naoko and Ayame went in... the aroma of black coffee swayed to their noses and that made Ayame fall in love with the café and aesthetics.

Kun appeared through his back but Naoko was just stepping in the café, Ayame went in to sit down immediately to order.

< Kun's hidden organization >

Now all is left is- [ looked ]

" Uh? Kun..where's the guy you said a while ago? "

" They'll be here any~ minute now, " And so then; Kun went into a serious mood looking at his face quickly.

" You'd better make a move while they're fighting us; they're losing stamina at the same time look at them and the time is all perfect! "

He's right and I know, now moving on to the next move...!

" Here's the plan! "

Naoko runoff and kicked to the face the whole gang flinched and glared at Naoko.

" There my people... '' Kun mumbled.

Whole place was in a dangerous position, even for Naoko's life. Kun's organization was in complete confusion, but doing so, listening to their master's orders, they would sacrifice their lives.

Who're they? [ He glanced ]

" they're yours Naoko, " Kun and the group nod.

" Let's go....! Kun's...Gang...! " He did not know the name so he said it in Kun's name. He went in with full force similar to a monster fight, a big advantage for Naoko to deal with their boss so he didn't let his guard down.

" Will Naoko-san be okay there his look's so fragile, his skin looks pale... "

" Don't mind Naoko Hiro-chan~ " Kun patted him. " Ha! ha! ha! your son really resembles you Yuki " he smirked.

" Hmm..? also why'd Naoko call you Mi-chi, Hiro-chan? " Kun was amused.

" I also don't know....what's more stop calling me with chan...it's creepy.... " Hiro blushed.

" Kun, are you sure that your man won't betray you.. nor Naoko? "

" hmm..? ``His face was serene.

" What's with that expression? "

[ Hiro's POV : I can't handle with these guys I'm speechless.... ]

" I can't say, " he pouted. " I'm not joking here kun " Yuki glared at him deadly.

" Okay okay... hahaha! honestly those guys were said to be loyal and even they betrayed me their life's in my hands ho-ho-ho~ "

( .....This guy is someone Nao trusted? )

" ....I'm not pushy~ I fight alongside Naoko I will also show off sooner you'll see my action drama part ~ "

"..... hmm.."

" I appreciated the concern Yuki~ I'm flattered " He wrapped his hands around Yuki and Hiro.

" Shut up you pervert...! don't touch my son " .

On that day the city was preoccupied by polices, Rokuro followed by Ayame, they've managed to go through all people just to see Naoko and Yuki, from the meantime, half of the illegal organization eloped with their captains, Kun's organization couldn't keep up but Naoko was still relieved that they've caught several man. The scantiness inside of Naoko didn't let him down. Instead he tells Kaiyo about what happened the whole ruckus day. At the moment...the clouds were pale and burst to rain, people started to move fast until Naoko was left all alone, but...Naoko heard someone's footsteps from the rain [ tac toc ]

Carrying a umbrella, panting while running he couldn't see that person clearly but she saw a wet low ponytail and waving green dangling earrings he knew from far away that it was Ayame his secretary holding an umbrella and her make up was all removed.

" Sir Miyazono! " She breathed quick and loud and leaned to her knees.

" Sir... S- Miya... " Didn't continue and hurried to give the umbrella to him.

" You're soaking wet Secretary Ayame.. "

" My apologies for my rudeness... Sir "

" It is fine let me give you a hand when we get to my office, surely you don't bring extra clothing so I'll let you borrow mine for awhile "

" That is so kind of you Sir but I needn't, I must return home Takahashi-san will bring me back home Sir "

Naoko was astonished. To think his Rokuro might have a liking for the secretary " Is that so? ``So he just smiled and patted her head. " Make sure you say ' thank you for taking me home '.... like that okay? "

Ayame wanted to thank Naoko for some reason but she's too shy to do so, instead she said.. " You've got this in the bag Sir Naoko " she smirked and leaned on his shoulder while walking, to think this is a compliment from earlier, Naoko touched Ayame's forehead when he smirked, Ayame on the other hand she blushed hard. As Rokuro waited, he planned to treat Ayame for dinner but she looked tired and pale and hadn't changed clothes so he took her home only.

From behind the scenes ; Yuki, Hiro and Kun pouted, " Shall we go home? "

Kun keeps pestering the three boys in Miyazono, without knowing he just wanted to have a simple celebration at their house.

A lot happened back in the mansion...Kazue overreacted to Naoko's bruised and Hiro's soaked in rain,without giving concern to the elder brother, not glancing, Yuki who almost reached death,

" Am I still your kid? " He mumbled and cracked his heart, reminiscing all the hard work he'd shown to his Mom and it was nothing, to his point of view.

Afterwards Kun got a bell ringing and it was his half sister saying he needed to go home before the next afternoon, the only purpose why Kun was there was to help him deal with gangs and illegal sites because of Kun's intelligence.

At the end of the day, all went back to normal and finally presented the new product invention of Naoko.

< Amasawa Ayame the secretary >

Ayame was a college student but dropped out because her father couldn't pay her tuition anymore. She worked as a part timer in a ramen house near Naoko's building department. It was also a popular restaurant that everyone came to eat there.

Her Mom was a secret agent which she didn't know but her Dad caught him one night sneaking in the house. Her father had a small business but he was scammed by a lecherous woman that said she would make him wealthy, if he signed a contract with her then made his business into a commercial and paid off his debts. Ayame's parents fought into the night where her mother just got home late at night, and while her father was drunk on the sofa bought it with the money from a scammer. They got divorced after a year and had been planning where Ayame was going to live with. She stayed with her father. Ayame's mother loved her but herself is threatening and if Ayame lives with her she might end up dead and her Dad will accuse her of staying with her. She and her father are currently in bad condition, business went down then he became sick and now he's in the hospital in coma. While growing up carrying all his burdens and debts when she was young but then because Ayame's prof called her at the middle of the night and said that she has her scholarship she was able to study once again, she's finally relieved from stress and found a part time job but her problem is resting after school she went to work and after that in midnight there where she starts to study, she'd always have sleepless nights and also visiting her parents daily. Her Mom decided to work as a "Mama" since she was given straight two weeks of no assignment for her.

She knocked at her house and saw her mother she hugged her so tightly and went inside Ayame was so happy that her Mom was there even just for weeks, her mother had visited her father in the hospital and she wants to make it up for Ayame, her mother's name was Miyabi, means elegance like herself even her skills were like a man.

< Before >

" Aya, you're home! How's school and work? " Miyabi happily asked.

While Ayame was tiringly removing her shoes at the front door " It's fine, and a little bit tired.."

" I prepared dinner right in time! " Her Mom kept talking and Ayame's ears were lingering so she glared and said " Mama! stop right there I wanna rest. I'm not hungry. Our Manager served us dinner before heading home... "

" Ah- if so.... " She was disheartened from what she heard and said " ....I'll put this in the fridge instead so you have breakfast for tomorrow you can go and take a bath.." she said it while holding her grip.

Ayame goes to her room, throws herself in the bed then slacks off and sighed tediously she was distressed because of her Dad and were she able to pay his fees in the hospital. She teared silently and wiped it done and went to sleep, Miyabi went in and kissed her forehead and cried and apologized to her for being a failure. Mom to her she wasn't able to teach her and guide her then care for her in need and just for two weeks is not enough. Miyabi was paranoid from the day she left her husband and daughter but she wanted to think Ayame only since she's her biological daughter and her father is not, but Ayame loved the both of them although Ayame herself didn't knew her biological father all these years she never thought that she was an abandoned child from her real Dad or believe a certain thing she was an orphan yet she wasn't her both parents supported her. As Miyabi teared up she ran out her room and it all went silent again, Ayame wasn't sleeping at all in every way she just closed her eyes and eavesdropped on her Mom.

It was still on Ayame's mind from Miyabi's story and that she knew

" Aya..." while petting her hair. " I'm so sorry for being a complete failure mother...I complete my task in work but for being a Mom...no...I'm terrible sorry for having such a bad Mom... a Mama like me, I doubt that you only show that you liked me because Papa's away, I know you liked him...but he wasn't your biological father at all..."

Ayame was astonished and scowl her forehead then Miyabi continues

" Your father left me at the time I said I was pregnant with you...I wished he wasn't your father..but your current Papa is, I know... I know that we've got divorced already...but all of that was...nonsense if I didn't pull myself together and talked about it a little more it wouldn't end up like this, he being in a comatose and you carrying his burdens...I don't want that to happen even for my daughter but it was too late I hope you forgive me...I will continue to support you and care for you...I promise that if you won't see me...again....." [ sniff ] She once again scowling her forehead until her shift at work her friends asking her why she's in a bad temper nonetheless she just glared at them without coming to senses and just after her friends turn around slowly she realized that her temper also made them effected.

The next day, Miyabi was off to work again and will have a hard time meeting with Ayame, she said " I can handle the chores by myself, and I don't need one of your colleagues Mama... "

" Bu-but.... " She grasp and sighed

" Okay... but call me if you need helpers "

As while walking towards their car she stopped and immediately hugged Ayame that they almost fell over their backs.

" I will deliver you a car, okay? " She kissed her forehead and left.

" What the hell? " she blinked three times.

[ During ] The second batch of Naoko's time, his employees were done with the work and wanted to eat ramen so they hurried to the popular ramen house near them.

(Irasshaimase!!!) " Welcome customers "

The Head Department wants to treat his co-workers along with Rokuro and Yoshinori at the back while entering.

" Today is my treat so pick whichever you want to order!! "

" Eh? erm.. Sir, even the expensive ones? " Rokuro excitedly asked.

" Choose the cheap ones instead of my salary... I'll send it to my family ha.. ha.. "

Rokuro and Yoshinori looked at each other, and afterwards they laughed.

As they were talking, Ayame took their order and went into the kitchen, concurrently Naoko went in because he saw Rokuro entering the restaurant and beyond his curiosity he wanted to join in.

" Well well, what a coincidence you all will eat here? " He pretended to ask.

" Ah Boss.. Un..! I will treat these boys after long work " Hanzawa wants to be praised, supposing that'll work.

" Oh~ may I join in your treat Hanzawa-kun? " He smirks, but behind that he's testing him without a matter of fact.

" Er.... YES YES YES " he stopped. " HA!HA!HA! I was joking with you Hanzawa-kun, treat your juniors well- "

Naoko stopped by the moment when he sensed someone was at his back and it was Ayame carrying their orders.

" Excuse me Sir " Ayame glared at him.

" Oya oya..? go then.. "

Naoko saw Ayame's name on her tag and he figured that she's only around nineteen years old. He recalls that he was looking for a secretary since he needed one. Throughout the candidates for secretary he wasn't satisfied enough even when he already had one but it didn't take a month. He'd already ditched them and fired every person who's his secretary but this time he was amazed. Naoko saw the determination on her eyes, Ayame was about to go so he grab her wrist and asked " Amasawa-san you-you're an college student, first year "

She was shocked and released " How did you know me? "

" Erm.. I saw your tag name.. " he stopped and calmed himself down then continued talking. " Should we talk outside? I'll make an excuse to your Manager.. "

He hurried to the front desk like nothing and nodded to her to go outside.

" What do you want from me? "

" I know you have a lot of questions to ask from me but I have a lot too, I am Miyazono- "

" Miyazono Naoko the newest President of Miyazono Group, your company is near this restaurant then? "

I see...news spreads really fast...

" So then.. um.. I would like to ask you if you can be my secretary, is that okay with you? "

" How much salary? "

" Precisely depends on your performance Amasawa-san " He smiled and added more.

" Yet.. " He comes closer while Ayame's heart's racing.

" The deal of being my secretary reaches a hundred thousand in two months.. What do you say? "

"..." She's not responding but thinking.

" I know your family's situation, your Papa is in coma and your Mom's a- "

" You don't need to say anything, your Brother is a consultant and I know! just spare my life you bastard...! "

" Wait- hold on! that's not what I implied to say..! Amasawa-san...! "

Ayame ignored her and slammed the front door, while the three employees were embarrassed and twitched at the time she slammed the door.

Oh crap... she was mistaken..by employing her which is good to pay her tuition fees too..I wanted to help her as much as I can.

[ Meanwhile ]

" That bastard! how could you call him President how annoying he even put his face to my ears you cannot sell love with money that idiot..! "

" Erm..Aya? " Her friend calls her.

" I don't think he's in love with you or something..."

" I don't care...! " Her friend gave up on calming her down and slid to the right side.

" You see Ayame-chan, he's been looking for a secretary this whole two months. He found one last time but he fired him for not doing his or her job... why won't you take it? "

" I'm fine working here even though the salaries are low " The whole crew stepped back and became small.

[ Groans ] " ... take the chance now Ayame-chan " Their Ramen chef nods.

Everyone cheered her to accept Naoko's suggestion and the next three days Naoko went in and ordered an advantage to look for her and Ayame went to his table.

----------

" I will accept being your secretary " with a straight face.

" Really? "

"..... Yes..? "

" REALLY REALLY " Sparkles in his eyes.

[ Ayame's POV : ]

Why is this man's eyes stunning? Is this really their President..? I heard the rumors that he's scary and your life will be threatened? but seems like he's more idiotic.

" okay! I'll come back tomorrow to pick you up and start working "

" Okay..? I'll go pick up my formal clothing-"

"No need I already provide it " He snapped his fingers.

" Livia bring it in "

" What the- are you serious you went all out man!! "

" Sure anything for my secretary~ "

he smirked that Ayame covered her whole face as she could after blushing so hard.

< Am I able to steal your Heart? >

----------

~ Beginning : Secretary ~

Everyone cheered Ayame for being successful the whole year, in the short time she graduated college and continued working for Naoko, She pay her Dad's hospital fees and debts which she has nothing to stress about, and meanwhile Miyabi comes back home along with Ayame's Dad in a wheelchair, her life was peaceful and relishing her current job.

Miyabi noticed that she always came home smiling...

< Stranger than being your lover >

Naoko went out of his office and wanted to have lunch along with the employees, but he noticed Ayame was exhausted and almost bumped her head to her table. Naoko was able to catch Ayame's head and wake her up. Naoko grasps a piece of paper and slowly puts it near her eyes and gently puts down the paper like the sun's rising in the morning.

On Ayame's point of view. At the back of him it was bright and for Naoko's position's like a shadow, she saw Naoko's black hair waving because he opened the window, a person who has pointed nose, attractive blue jeweled eyes ; such as the first time she met Naoko on the restaurant begging to become his secretary because of cleverness and being wise.

When she extended her eyes more to see him clearly and close up, Naoko was already near to her face for almost their noses touched. Her heart says it jumps to a million times, Ayame's heart can't stop beating and blushes so hard she doesn't even know if it's lovesickness, Naoko sighed deeply and smirked and wink at her.

" Shall we go for lunch? I was waiting for you to wake up and I suddenly thought to do this " then he laughed hard and chuckled.

" Where is the place we're going, Sir? "

" It's a fancy resto " [ for short of restaurant ]

" Ah Sir- " She waved her hand at him while walking to the parking lot.

" Sir, don't treat me this well. I can buy it with my own money... " [ excuses ]

Naoko wasn't listening, he just pulled her wrist and said " Join me for lunch, that's an order " with a straight look on his face, and Ayame blushed and skipped heartbeat.

After lunch they went out at one-thirty pm and Naoko forgot that he and Yuki were going to meet up in his office. " Ah.... Ayame-san I'm sorry..I must go on... really sorry for leaving you at this time.. "

" I'm fine Sir I'll take the taxi " Then he drove.

Weeks had passed after the long fight with the organization, the project was successfully launched, the news spread faster than usual and many consumers were eagerly buying.

~ On the time of twelve o' clock midnight~

After the long busy work, laying on her bed keeps sighing and punching the air until Ayame hits the wall and twitched her knuckles, she always recall Naoko's view in every angle, she didn't knew that it was love, Ayame doesn't want to fantasize about him but instead the fantasy came to her mind is lewd things it was too nefarious, she screamed and cracked her voice and Mom opened the door and said...

" WHAT WHAT HAPPENED! "

" Ah...there's nothing Mom... "

When Miyabi was about to close the door, she stopped and asked her.

" Are you in love with the second son from Miyazono? '' Ayame couldn't tell how Miyabi's face does, or she sees that her Mom was confused and curious.

" What with the sudden question Mama? "

" I want to know honey, you're my daughter and... Of course I don't know what type of man you want to marry in the future. "

" I liked Sir Naoko, Mama.. "

She grasp, " I see.. " she felt sorry for her because she knows about the second son who didn't even pay attention to women who'd set a proposal or contract with him, through this whole three years, Naoko's receiving a lot of confessions, other than that, there was more worst.. actress who was popular on the second year spreads false rumors about dating which is he asked Kun to delete the fandom accounts. And went to the entertainment industry, under her company, afterwards she wasn't able to get back showbiz.

" Aya, you must know this story of Naoko... "

.....

In the long run, Ayame's mouth dropped, she was shocked that there's this family named Shinomiya, one of biggest shareholders in Japan alongside the Miyazono group.

" She's already... " she mumbled.

" She passed away, Aya "

To think it was a tragic ending for Naoko and unconditional love if she puts her name on it, she doesn't know if she would be happy or regretted being happy because she had taken the chance to manipulate him but she doesn't want that to happen.

When she learned that she's in love with him it's unbreakable to Naoko's heart, with that saying Naoko's heart only belongs to Kaiyo and it ends there.

As the time flies, it's two in the morning and she couldn't sleep at all from mother and daughter talk. Her friend from college sent her some grotesque images just for no reason or fun.

[ On chat : ]

" Ewww! " [ Yikes ]

" Hehehe~ " [ sends a smirk emoji ]

" By the way... "

" Hmmm....? "

" Do you know~ Miyazono? "

" Well I do, and? "

" I have a big crush on the current CEO of that company "

She wished and paused to type on chat that she's working there during the end of first year college, but it seems like it'll be bothersome if she'd offer some help. After all, they both liked him but had different preferences, unlike her friend she liked only ; his personality, money and his body. To Ayame she likes everything about him even though he was annoyingly an idiot and whatever the circumstances he's always popping out of nowhere, but all throughout it's Ayame's type of man to marry, deliberately he was widower.

Her friend sends a voice record

" Aya-san I'm going to sleep now my Mom caught me!!! See you soon! "

[ - Beep - ]

She sighed and grabbed her blanket and moved to the side of her bed. Ayame closed her eyes and teared in slightness.

One time Miyabi visited her again, coincidentally Naoko was there... She mistook him as Ayame's boyfriend, because Naoko was washing the dishes.

" Oh my you have a visitor.. I shouldn't interrupt I'm going back "

" No Mama! He's my boss, you know him from the news. " Miyabi scanned Naoko and just smiled back at him,

~ At work~

All of Ayame's co-workers were occupied she wasn't able to have a chat with the boys she used to talk, as a secretary she's already done with all the work in seven hours since morning till afternoon, she stretched and get a glass of water and glance to the side then she saw Naoko talking with Kun.

" Sir Naoko- " She paused because Naoko raise his hand saying to " stop for now "

Ayame tries to pester around but most likely ends up exhausted and just gives up. When she comes back to her office table she sees a note on her Iced coffee.

" Huh? It's from Starbucks..! Sir Naoko must have sent this to me? "

[ - The letter - ]

" Secretary Ayame-san met me in the conference room. I'm there after I give you this letter " with a drawing emoji winking.

" Does he really need to go this far? " [ Annoyed ]

" Oh hey! Ayame-san "

" Sorry for the delay Sir...what's the reason you called me here? "

Naoko's smiling a lot that Ayame gets annoyed and sighed.

" If there's nothing then I should go back to my office " She scowled eyebrows and turned her back.

" Wait! you have something to say earlier right? "

" Ah.. " She recalls but she looked down and said "..... that's nothing forget that.."

He grabbed her hand and got close to her without an intention of doing so.

" Release me this once Naoko!- "

Her eyes enlarged then down head..

------------

What's with her today? She's been weird since this afternoon... pestering everyone and getting annoyed it's troublesome.... she called my name... is there a problem between us?..

------------

" I was... I'm sorry.... I should leave now "

" then.. if you're sorry then make it up to me Ayame-san "

" Why would I? isn't that enough..? dear Sir "

" Tell me what's wrong, is the amount of salary not enough? are you uncomfortable with the time schedule? Are you possibly have family problems right? it could be anything.. you're my secretary and it's part of me helping my people... "

" Are you done... "

" Indeed. "

" Then.... "

~ Phone ringing ~

Naoko's phone rang at the wrong time.

" uwah- sorry.... by the moment.. "

.....

" Ayame let's continue our discussion tomorrow in my office this is an urgent "

------------

.....

" Sir...! " She paused at the moment and grabbed his right arm, hugged him then suddenly slowly put down her other hand to his palm.

" can I have a real moment with you...."

" Hey! Ayame-san my niece is having a fight with delinquents, so let me go "

" Sir...! "

...!

" Stop this instant...! you don't know where to hide if you continue this... "

Why? Why did I grab him? I'm going to get troubled here.... why can't I release him..?

" Si-sir I've been thinking about this for months...and it might be the case that this will be our last moment together...."

Ooh.. so she's quitting her job how pit-

But why would she say ' together ' ?

" I like you...! Naoko.... please go out with me I will make you happy "

... not from what I expected so she had motives all the time..

" Naoko... why're you not responding... I'm waiting, I know you have feelings for me too because of your movements since the first time we met... I've been observing it for the last two years.. "

Ayame thought it was love at first sight and hugged him like she didn't know his background in the past.

" Stop this Ayame, you're my secretary- "

" So my calculation was true, we're mutual..! "

" Have you ever heard about the rumors of my past? "

"..... yes... I said I would make you happier than she does...! I can do better than her"

" Ayame don't ever compare her to you, I guess you don't understand what happened in the past? well who're you to know anyways... I don't have feelings for you and; let me rephrase what you've said it's miscalculation we're not mutual it's one sided and from the things, my movements and everything you've got it all wrong I would never do that ideals of yours to the person who I didn't even loved, not you not from anyone; the only person inside my heart for all these years up until my last breath is Kaiyo the only daughter of Shinomiya "

He glared at her " Do you hear me?"

" I've been trying my best just to get your praise and look up to me..not just being a secretary, as a woman who can replace her, that woman is already dead- "

" You dared to talk to my face about my dearest fiancé with that arrogant expression! What do you want from me Ama.. sawa...Ayame? "

" Sir I loved you, loving me back is all I want... why can't you do the things you've done for her to me? and make it to me this time..Naoko you're just confused but think.. I can wait for your answer..! "

" No need, thanks for your concern, but I'll give you my answer right now, " He touched her face and thought she felt love, but Naoko... when he put down he took her ID and broke it.

" I thought you were smart? But I guess you failed to do it, I didn't regret hiring you as my secretary but, " He paused at the moment.

" I don't feel any affection towards you, I don't feel your love but I can give you... deduct salary and you're going to a different department! you're no longer my secretary... your salary is more lower than the others I swear "

" You can't do that...! You've promised my parents that I will live a good life...! "

" I already contacted my friend that he'll talk with your dear parents Amasawa.. ha.... I didn't know I forgot. My friend says he was observing when he got here.. so he was right? "

" This is.... nonsense Naoko..! "

" Stop calling me by my name Amasawa-san... " He glared.

After a few days, Ayame didn't show up and Rokuro was worried and shily shallying all day, because he was acting as the assistant secretary on behalf of Ayame.

He called their house number but didn't get a response, instead, on his own accord he went to her house and knocked on the front door. First he saw Ayame's father. He didn't know their problem so he just let Naoko in the house.

Miyabi stared at Naoko, and just as he asked where Ayame, she didn't respond and just went upstairs and Ayame went down.

Ayame didn't talk but she nodded and shook her head to Naoko once he had a question simply like this.

" Are you sick Ayame? "

She shakes her head as a ' No '

Naoko apologized to Ayame for being rough and almost threatened her life..

Ayame shouted and said.

" No! No Sir... it was me.. I deeply.. No.. I was wrong. I'm sorry for saying bad things about your passed fiancé. I know there's rejection in my confession. It's just like I need to be sure or see more of what I can do to please you.. I am not a gold-digger or anything! that was so wrong and immature of me for not understanding your life... I know you picked me from here and there and I have the audacity to pounce on you... I regret it... please just.. I wanna resign- "

" You can't " With a straight face.

" Why? "

" You were my excellent secretary, I reject your confession but I appreciated the love you had for me and praised so.. thank you Ayame-san " With a pure smile on his face, Naoko thought he would act like a mad businessman but he wasn't and was completely relieved.

" Sir Naoko.... " Ayame's tears fall off again, sniffing.

" Let's go back to work secretary Amasawa Ayame "

" DEFINITELY SIR! "

" Ha! Ha! Ha! you're already hyped up, that's the spirit..! "

" I'm just gonna wash up and wear my working clothes "

" Wait- Ayame-san... "

" Yes Sir? "

" I have a moral lesson for you, you confessed to me, but there's someone waiting for you, and it's someone I know, that person was worrying you and keeps asking of what if you didn't come by one day, so cherish him too Ayame-san, maybe he's the one for you look at it okay! "

" Um..! " She listened very well and paused for a second and think who is it and she gets the clue that it's someone he knows and close too, she's now referring to Rokuro, even though she's a little bit annoyed because of his clumsiness and popularity because of his hard work she blushed too, didn't keep on mind that he was a big help to her to difficult times and editing.

~ The Secretary Goes Back!!! ~

Everyone cried and worried, embraced her and some of her friends bought her starbucks and her favorite Rokuro was just at the back typing on the computer.

She glanced.

" Guys can I have a minute with Takahashi-kun "

She went and Rokuro glanced at her.

" ah.... secretary Amasawa! good to see you back! let's work together again! "

He bows almost in ninety degrees.

She burst into laughter, and realized that she made Rokuro wait for her and blind for him.

" Rokuro... kun... you..do you like me? "

He was amazed by Ayame's look, on Ayame's figure and view, she thinks it's stupid and awkward. While on Rokuro's view she was beautiful like roses and he was at loss and held his grip then said.

" I have liked you since the second year...

... I like you because you were pretty and smart. I was very very thankful at times when you helped me, even it's simple things an employee should know... ha.. ha."

" You like me because I was pretty? I didn't see myself like that.. "

" But you are Amasawa-san.! YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL JUST THE WAY YOU ARE! "

" Thank you... for liking me, it's difficult for me to give you an answer right now..but please treat me as how you're treating me... th-the usual way..I'll try and push myself... "

" No not pushing yourself Amasawa-san but at least be conscious about me, don't worry my heart already has you, you know... my heart right now when you asked me if I like you my heart skips hahaha..... "

" Then... wait for my reply... "

" Yeah... "

Ends with embarrassment.
