Kasumigaoka Utaha

Cleaning the room, he remember that he hadn't paid his rent for the last month.

He knew that the landlord was going to bother him, cursing himself for his stupidity that how could he forgot about this important matter.

Like hearing his thoughts a sudden knocking sound came out.

*Knock*Knock*

'Damn! How? Can't believe that I forget something important like this? Maybe my past habit is hitting me..Where the hell is all money anyway?' He checked his pocket and found only a broken button.

He never had any debt or lived in apartment in his last life since he was a billionaire. He forgot that he was now similar to that of a broke.. He didn't had a single penny in his pocket.

He tried to find the remaining money he had left in drawers after wasting all of it on drinking.

He finally obtained it, only to be dumbfounded by the amount he had.

410 USD!

Shit!! Shit!!

He only had this much of what regular rent.

He really wanted to bang his head on the wall.

Izumi immediately ran towards the door as the constant ringing making him irritated.

"I'm sorry! I didn't have more money than this. And please give me some time, I will definitely pay the remaining amount including this month's." He opened the door and bowed while showing the remaining money he had.

He didn't wanted to bow since he never done but there's nothing he could do in this situation since it was his fault (previous owner) for not paying rent on time.

Then again, he couldn't blame him since he was devastated by his mother death and he was sure if he was in his place he would do the same.

So he could apologize for now for their token of goodwill.

The landlord could have thrown him out but didn't, since his mother was very respected here.

"You got some nerve for not paying rent at time and making excuses to delay." A grumbling voice was heard and didn't look happy.

Izumi really didn't mind the tone, and from the voice he could deducted it was a girl. He was startled when he saw the person stood infront of him and went onto dazed when saw a familiar beautiful girl.

She was a tall and beautiful slim-figured girl with mid-back length dark hair that she wears a white hairband and had scarlet red.

Coupled with her blue school uniform and what made him stunned was her full black stockings.

(Pic here)

He couldn't take his eyes from her beautiful legs and stocking as if it was scripted by Gods. He didn't want her label him as a pervert or a playboy, so immediately he shook his head to came out from his daze..

He knew who was this and become confused as she shouldn't be here.

Kasumigaoka Utaha was from the anime "How to raise a boring girlfriend!"

He also knew that the girl infront of him had her ways with words and a superb black belly character. Her words were so sharp it would make someone lost their confidence in a second and make them puke blood. Many people loved her character because of this reason including him.

But now was not the time to admire her since he had to hurry and start writing a novel to save his future.

'Ugh...damn this headache.' He screamed inside as his headache strikes again.

He was about to say something but words come from her mouth made him eat his words.

"Have you seen enough?" Izumi only nodded at her words and apologized.

"I'm sorry you're so beautiful so I couldn't take my eyes." Now it was Utaha turn to be startled since she thought he would be like those fake gentlemanly perverts who would smile simply saying sorry but his words made her feel like it was sincere and give the same kind of feeling that usually happened in Shoujo Manga.

She didn't say anything and left after taking the money since she knew his situation and kind of felt bad for him. Her father and mother had told her about his situation and how his mother passed away leaving him alone.

She wanted to praise him when she saw him overcoming his depression as for how she knew because she could see it in his eyes. She couldn't imagine what her situation would be if she was in his place.

However, one thing she admitted, he was very handsome with the tattoo added more to his charm and she was sure that girls would immediately fawned over him just from his looks and smile.

Izumi sighed in relief as he had just survived a biggest crisis.

He never felt like this. So weak! How many years it had been? How many years it had been since he felt something like that?

He really hate these feelings. This was the one of the reason he worked hard to become successful but he was naive and that naivety caused him to lost everything.

Now that he got a second chance, he is going to use it to its fullest. He won't be showing any mercy to his coming enemies.

Izumi made up his mind and his goal was to become a Mogul of Japan and even more than that, he want to become the most powerful and successful person in this world.(A/N: This is normal world after all)

After that, no one would bother him, and his single word would cause everyone to silent.. Enemy? Hehe...let them come.

There is a fine balance between honouring the past and losing yourself in it. For example, you can acknowledge and learn from mistakes you made, and then move on and focus on the present scenario. It is called forgiving yourself!!

He agreed with whoever said these beautiful words and wanted to give a hug if that said one is be alive.

He needed time for to fully embraced his past but he won't be dwelling in it. He would use past to forged his path towards his future.

"Seems, it was already late. *Yawn* I will start writing from tomorrow." Izumi sighed as he was feeling very tired after waking up in this world. It didn't help the fact he had drank two full bottles and his headache began to increased from remembering the memories.

He just wanted to forgot about everything and sleep because his trauma was greater than he thought.

Since, he had encountered many unbelievable things in a day like meeting God, reincarnation, a system, two characters from different animes and don't forgot about his earlier depression, so to proceed all of these he needed a good rest to digested everything and refresh his mind.

Why? Because sleep is the good way to clear your mind.
