when Ichika arrived at Kaoru's house, her brain got stopped for a few seconds since she couldn't believe that her friend lives in the most expensive mansion.
her father may be one the wealthiest person in the city but he told her there are some people that are far richer than her father, the difference is just like heaven and earth and the owner of this mansion is one of those people.
because of that Ichika starts to think hard about why Kaoru need to teach them to get some small money when his parents are so rich.
since she can't find any good reason she just throws all the hard thing and just press the bell button
[yes! Who is it?]
not long after that Kaoru's voice came and Ichika immediately gave a reply
"Kaoru-kun? it's me Ichika"
[oh Ichika? wait a moment...]
*creakkk
[just come in, it's safe there is no mad dog here]
the gate opened and when Ichika heard Kaoru's voice she entered without hesitation.
----
when she entered the main hall she found Kaoru already waiting for her.
"so what is the reason for the eldest lady of Nakano giving this humble one a visit?"
Ichika feels there is a cross-popping vein appear on her forehead when she heard what Kaoru said, it's just like he is deliberately trying to make fun of her, and that's why she chooses to play along with his game.
"Ohohoho, it's been a long time since this princess played in the mortal realm, so how dare you a mere mortal asked my reason in this place, on the other hand, you should be honored that this lady came here."
Ichika said those cringe young lady sentences while pressing her hand under her boobs and making them look bigger.
*hoekkk
Kaoru's reaction surprised Ichika, she never thought that Kaoru starts to vomit and she got worried that Kaoru is sick so she search to look for a sofa or something similar and take Kaoru there.
"I'm sorry for coming when you're sick kaoru-kun"
"don't mind it, I just need some rest"
"I'll make you something, so where is the kitchen?"
"over there!"
Ichika feels a bit guilty that's why she wants to make something for Kaoru and head to the kitchen after knowing where it is.
and she would never think that the reason for Kaoru's reaction is her word earlier.
Kaoru has some phobia toward those people with young master or lady syndrome and if it's not Ichika who said those words then Kaoru will give them a heavy punishment, yup a heavy punishment.
'what a strong opponent, how would I know that she is really fit to become an arrogant young lady and with her big assets make her act better.'
when Kaoru still thinking about Ichika's skill to become an arrogant princess, in the kitchen Ichika tries to cook something, some people know that Nino is the best when it's about cooking but that doesn't mean Ichika can't cook she is just too lazy for that, the only reason she cooks right now is she wants Kaoru to try her cooking and also because she feels guilty about the incident earlier.
----
"Kaoru-kun, come and try it!"
Ichika brings her dishes for Kaoru and when he looks at them he wondered 'how is that possible for this lazy lass could cook, even in the canon I never see her cooking, the only one who got a cooking arc is Nino.'
"why its feel like you're thinking something rude?"
"no nothing, it's just your imagination Ichika"
Kaoru shuddered when he look at Ichika's face and remember that she is a bit yandere, he also remembers at one doujin in his previous life where Ichika mutilate her siblings and stitches their limbs with her own.
didn't want to think hard Kaoru eat her dishes and know that Ichika is good at cooking not at Nino's level, but good enough to be put on the restaurant menu, it's just her lazy attitude that makes her seem like only could do acting and nothing more.
"hey it's good, I thought it would only look good on the outside"
when it comes to food Kaoru will never actually care whether it's delicious or not since when in the hard situation even the wild grass will taste good and he had felt it before.
so he will eat her dishes even if they actually taste bad even if it makes him have diarrhea he will eat them because the act of throwing away food just because it tastes bad is an unforgivable thing for Kaoru.
looking at Kaoru's reaction makes Ichika happy since she understands that to conquer a man the easiest way is to conquer their stomach first, and also it makes her feel that she has another reason for cooking since there is someone that will eat her dishes.
"ne, Kaoru-kun can I ask you something? I want to ask this earlier but didn't have time"
"hmm? What it is?"
"where are your parents? I didn't see them since earlier, are they working?"
"nope? They are gone, I'm an orphan since five and Hana-san take me under her wing and taught me how to do business, Albert-san taught me how to be a leader, and that annoying four-eyed taught me how to fight"
"so does that mean this mansion is your guardian's?"
"nay, I ran away from them at ten and with some money that I collect since five I started a small business and then it grow to this point"
Ichika got surprised to hear that since that meant Kaoru is an independent man since ten and grow to become this rich just in a few years.
"Kaoru-kun, your business is not an illegal one right?"
"oy oy, I will never do that kind of thing you know, I still have a bottom line, actually I just do a small business for example the apartment that you girls live in is actually mine and your father just bought the entire flour from me for you girls, that's why I know where you live"
"....."
Ichika can't say anything since this is her first time seeing a 17 years old boy that becomes a tycoon with his own abilities and that boy is also her crush because she only sees that kind of thing in fiction.
"don't think too hard, so why are you here Ichika?"
Kaoru is not some dense protagonist on the contrary he could guess the reason Ichika wants to play at his house, and that makes him happy since that's means they have the same feeling at least that what Kaoru thinks.
"hehehe, I just want to play and I only could think to play at your place, can I keep playing at your place in the future?" Ichika begs Kaoru with a pleading expression.
if the one who begged Kaoru is the other four he would think they are cute, but when Ichika did it she is a bit erotic and he can't deny her request.
and then Ichika and Kaoru talk with each other until the time for her to go back to her house, if you think there would be a snu snu scene you have to remember that both of them are not in a relationship yet.
