Riku stood there blankly, his cheeks slowly turning red. The maid was making such a fuss over that and looked terribly scared.

On the other hand Riku's eyes widened in surprise and didn't even flinch for few moments. He didn't try to smile after that as his gaze fell into me furiously. I'm an adult yet this kid was scaring the shit out of me just by glaring.

Nevertheless we're talking about my pride here. No matter what, I won't let someone like him humiliate my dignity as a woman at least.

"I'm not going with you. Both party and date are cancelled. Do whatever you want with me or my mother" I said in a lower tone before pushing the box back to him and turned around to leave.

However he grabbed my wrist the moment I turned around. He was grabbing it so tightly that I couldn't even budge him with this body's full strength.

"Don't go. I'll give you something different to wear"

I wanted to refuse so badly. But the look in his eyes was real serious. At that moment I swear I could see my father in his eyes, the eyes of a madman.

"I'll choose it myself" I simply said and thankfully he released me.

I knew he was something like a masochist. Or my move to keep my dignity moved him.

Anyway I acted without thinking this time but it was worth it. He nodded and his calculating smile returned on his handsome face. Indeed this face is scary without a smile but still handsome. Not to mention I just harmed this god like face...

Honestly I don't feel a single drop of guilt in me. He deserved every moment of that humiliating slap. It just become a bit red. No big deal. It's not even noticeable. I unconsciously hold back my strengh after all.

"Very well then" he nodded in agreement before letting me go. Haah~ that was easy.

".........................-anyway..."

I couldn't hear the words he said clearly. I glared at him in question but he was in his own world, muttering things quietly not enough for me to hear.

"Did you say something?"

"No, nothing" he quickly replied.

I just shrugged off his sudden weird behavior thinking it's from the previous slap or something.

Little did I know I should've been more attentive at that time. That day was beginning of my downfall.

*****

"Hey Riku! You've brought another girl again?"

As soon as we entered the pool we were greeted by a cheerful voice of unknown boy. Riku slightly frowned with a displeasure all over his face without dropping his smile.

So that's the famous dark smile huh?

"No, she's my girlfriend. Official"

'You damn bastard. When did I become your girlfriend...' I whispered but he pinched my wrist that was in his hands. I flinched slightly and wanted to pinch him back but was too late. I missed the time to deny his words.

"Haha, Riku-kun's girlfriend is so cute. If this guy ever dump you, you can come over to my house any time"

"That won't be happening in this lifetime" Riku replied to him.

Again with the dark smile...

"Okay, okay. You're so possessive.. how can you keep this beauty just to yourself all the time?"

"Don't worry Kazuma-kun. You won't be seeing her again"

W-what does he mean by that? Is he planning to kill me for slapping him earlier? Please laugh slightly and tell him it's a joke...

He looks super serious!

The guy named Kazuma, a very shiny, of course handsome boy gulped down his saliva nervously and stared at me as if he was praying for my future. He understands my feeling.. how nice. Why can't this stupid game make someone like him the capture target? He looks honest too despite being a super rich, playboy kid.

"Okay okay guys let's stop it~ we can't afford to lose our important time now can we?"

"Since I'm the party hostess, I'll be instructing what to do. We'll play a very nice game!" Two girls announced with a microphone, almost making our ears deaf. So energetic.

Speaking of which there's more than eight people here. A twenty? Or even thirty including the maids and butlers.

"Riku-kun and his girlfriend will be our judge of the first round!"

Hey hey, I've a name okay? They probably think it's unnecessary to know my name since I'll be replaced before they memorize my name. Well, if that's the case they've a point.

"Why're we the judge?"

"Do you want to participate in that nuisance of a game? They'll be mostly make a drinking contest or something"

"Aren't they high schoolers?"

"It doesn't matter if you've money"

"I see" I sighed.

Everything goes just as Riku said. They all drank like crazy, swam and the rest was... awful. I'm glad I'm judging it. I even saw some of them using drugs... so disgusting.

"I wanna go back" I asked. Then suddenly his interest rose again.

Surprisingly his interest is rising rapidly today. It'll reach 10 anytime soon. Even though I planned to ruin his route, winning without effort isn't that bad. But why rose by two?

"I agree" he sounded slightly happy about the fact that I didn't like that place.

Riku also had that dark smile all the time. I knew why he come here despite hating to participate in this. It's because he will own a very large company in the future so he was busy making connections.

I didn't even swim after making fuss about that swimsuit. The one I choose was normal, not flashy and revealing like one Riku gave me.

After changing our clothes back he brought me home. It was already dark outside. How many hours did I sit there like an idiot? No wonder my butt was hurting so much.

"Why did you decide to bring me there? That was disgusting"

"I know. I just want to torment you a little"

"So are you going to threaten me again?"

"No, of course not. I've seen enough of your angry face. You should've just agreed to get along with me that day. I was just planning to make you pay"

It's not like I did it because I wanted to. But he'll probably take me as a crazy person if I tell him about the system.

"I'm sorry then. Good bye"

I was too busy trying to escape from this car and failed to notice the red and blue lights that was around the car. When I got off, a bunch of police came and without a word cuffed my arms behind my back.

"Miss Asuka Yoshino, you're being arrested for murder of Mr. Yamamoto. You've the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in court" the policeman's cold tone warned me before I could even ask what was going on.

I didn't even had a time to get surprised as the police dragged me towards the police car. The lights were too flashy and I wasn't even able to process the situation.

"W-wait, what's going on?" I muttered but soon realization hit me. This bastard...

"R-riku! You asshole! What's going on!!?"

Thanks to the lights of the police car, I saw that disgusting wide smirk on his face through the open door of his car. He mouthed me a sentence which even make me more persistent against the cops.

"We'll meet again very soon, Yo...shi...no..chan~"

I struggled against them.. Just one punch... I'll wipe that smirk off his face!

Unfortunately the strength of a high school girl was nothing compared to that of a trained adult.

"You bastard!! How can you do that! If we ever meet again I'll shred you into pieces without holding back!"

I could only swear at him. The police car moved and at the same time a green letters popped up.
