Sawa and Haru were singing together.

Dong! ♪

The doorbell to their apartment rang.

"Let me go answer that, Okay, Spring." Sawa ran to their door while Haru was sing and dancing.

"Who is it?!" Sawa asked opening the door 'Ah! Shoot I forgot to look in the keyhole first'. No one was there, just as she was about to look out further a pair of hands reached out and pulled her into and embraced before lips took hers. It didn't let her go until her legs got weak.

"Uncle Shunji!!" Haru screamed as he runs up to the handsome stranger who wasn't even letting his mother go.

"Hey, squirt," Shunji said picking up Haru with his free hand and leading them both inside.

Sawa closed the door her face not showing any expression as she watched the two play until Haru fell asleep from all of his excitement. Sawa put Haru bed and walked back to the living room where Shunji made himself at home.

"Why are you here?" she asked

"You Father has been looking for you for two months," he said making her pause.

"He wants to find Haru, huh!"

"Yeah, these old families and bloodline relations" he walked closer to her. "I have been holding off his PI" he laughed "Shouldn't I get an award for that."

Sawa blushed and turned away before he turned her heard back to his own and kissed her and continued to do so.

"Stop, I just put Haru to bed." She whispered somewhat breathless. Making him hold her even closer she kissed her ear.

"This place is soundproof, and we are covered."

"No" Sawa insisted with a shiver.

"Alright" He slowly backed off but didn't let go of her.

"Are you here just to tell me that?"

"No, your father has bought stocks and, on his way, to become the biggest shareholder. He's pushing for your half-sister to take your position in the company." He said lovingly while leaning on her shoulder. "I am also trying to get you to marry me…Has my devotion convinced you yet?" he chuckled.

With her face red again she said "…." she was silenced.

"You know it is only a matter of time. Before you say Yes."

May's Cosmetics

"Lately Color makeup sale has been poor" Chiho smiled "I'd like our PR team to sponsor a color makeup demonstration."

Chiho placed the file on Sawa's desk who read it thoroughly.

"It looks good," Sawa said "I'll take it t the president now," she said getting up and making her way out the office. She glances back at the young women dazedly starting at her desk.

Ando and Henmi looked at their superior who hasn't sung at all today but seemed rather quiet which was unlike her. They had a worried expression on their faces.

Kagiyama was siting in his office lost in thought when Sawa walked in and handed him the file. He flipped through it.

"Since sales have been low for colorful makeup, Chiho has made a made a proposal for a color make-up demonstration."

Looking through he found the proposal to be quite terrific. But, looked back at Sawa with a worried expression.

"I plan to invite CEO Oshima. Since she will be in town this day."

"The board is planning to move you, you know. Replace you with Ms. Komura."

"Don't be worried about me, if it happens it Happens."

"You can go ahead and prepare this" Kagiyama signed taking off his glasses.

"Thank You, Sir," Sawa bowed and walked out returning to her office

"Ms. Komura, Mr.Kagiyama has agreed to your proposal. Have Ms.Ando and Ms.Henmi help you if you need anything. I will also be sending an invite to our CEO Ms. Oshima. So, prepare accordingly." Sawa handed Chiho back her file.

Chiho was somewhat stunned as she didn't think her superior would allow her to take the credit and not only that help her take her position.

Sawa sat down at her desk her thoughts to herself as she started to sing again
