"I will don't worry sir, but they can be pain sometime, Even your daughter hates me"

"I am sorry for my daughter's rude behavior Hikaru" said takenji's wife 

"Children are hard to raise so i understand"

"She even started to live in dorm even though the house is close.I don't know what will happen in future."

"Well, you can't force her. She doesn't value the normal things she has and is getting driven around by the crowd.I think we all have gone throw this stage for a day or period so it's not that big of deal.She will realize with time or time will make her realize wither way she will understand her foolishness in time.Why stress yourself, just be with her on time when she needs someone to rely on everything else will be fine.Don't stress, both of you have beautiful face don't let have wrinkle on them"

"True enough" said takenji's wife and smiled.

Takenji checked his glass it was empty.

"There is grape juice bottle on the shelf can you bring it"

"Okay" Takenji's wife went to take it.

There were many bottles there, some of them didn't have name of juice written on them just their brand name.

"Which one is it, There is not any with grape juice written on it"

"The one with violet color" Takenji shouted from his seat.

She take one from the shelfs and handed it to Takenji.

"Give me your glass let me fill it for you."

"Huuu...?" Hikaru made a voice quietly.

He takes one more sip.

Takenji take one sip.He also thinks it's taste is a little different from what he imagined

"Hicc.... it's taste different sir, i don't get why.but i want more. Can I get one more glass"

" okay....here" Takenji poured one more glass

Hikaru drinked full glass after one sip.

Takenji drinks his glass and started to doubt the drink.

"Excuse me for one second " said Takenji and went to check the other bottles.

He came back and see hikaru filling one more glass.

"Wait hikaru!"

"Huh?.....what happened?" Said hikaru while wobbling.

Takenji snatched the bottle from hikaru, it felt light to him.

"It's already half empty!"

Takenji looks toward hikaru.

"Hicc..." he smiles.

"Sorry Hikaru my wife made a mistake or rather it was my fault. It was grape flavoured alcohol"

Hikaru stares at Takenji, then stares at bottle, stares back at Takenji and says

"It's half emppppttyy"

"Yes, sorry I made you drink alcohol without asking you"

"Half filled....why not empty the full bottle."

"No no, i can't allow you to drink more let m-"

The bottle was gone from Takenji's hand. Hikaru took it .Takenji didn't see hikaru move.

"now..now...just drink with me." He pours it in a glass and handed it to Takenji.

"Are you sure? you look pretty drunk already you should stop"

"Again...hic.." Hikaru grabs Takenji hand in which the glass was,

"It's okay to let lose yourself once" Then Hikaru takes Takenji glass towards his mouth.

Takenji look towards Hikaru, he is looks at Takenji with eyes half closed and says

"Drink it"

"That's my sir, Here take another"

Both of them emptied the full bottle. Hikaru said it's late now so he should go home, Takenji takes him to the door.

"heheh...Hic...Bye Bye sir"

"Beha....Behave properly on the way to ho..hic...home"

"Yes sir! i will be a poper...proper gentleman" Hikaru straightened his back,Chest out,chin up. And leaved for home.

Even after being drunk Hikaru manged to maintain his posture and walk in line because of Takneji words. On the way home he only repeated on line his mind,

'Behave as a gentleman'

Nobody on streets could tell he was drunk.

:Thud:

Around a turn He bumps into two women carrying some bags in their hands, a man was also with them he also had some bags with him.One of the lady and her bags falls, the other manged to maintain her footing.

"ouch"

"Are you okay?" said the other lady

He gives a hand to the woman to stand up and said

"I am very sorry mam for hurting you"

The Lady stands on her own, her left ankle was hurt a little. cleans her dress and says

He also took the bags from other woman.

"It's okay you don't have to." Said the other woman.

"I can't let you have any pain in those beautiful hands of your mam. Lead the way please" replied hikaru.

They talked a little in the way.

She hugs the woman.She looks at all the bags and said

"It must have been hard to carry all these bags you should have told us."

"It wasn't a problem, a kid of your age helped us. What a sweet child he was."

"Eh?.. someone was able warm the cold heart of your a little huh?"

"Do you want to talk while making us stand here" said the man who was with the women.

"Ah sorry come in. I will help you carry these bags"

They went inside the house.

Meanwhile when hikaru was in the way home he saw a var, there was a banquet.

'Looks fun, let's step in for a second'

That second turned into 30 minutes, hikaru was dancing, singing and chugging juice bottle nit alcohol this time. He saw the time and made a run for home.

He was going by the coast route.He saw a old man in between the sea drowning.

Hikaru dived into sea to save him and asked what he was doing there. The old man said he lost his watch in the sea.

"Are you stupid.hic.... for a watch you almost died."

"That was my wife's gift for me" the old man looked sad.

'Whyyyyy....haaaa......' hikaru dives in the sea to find it.

After 10 minutes hikaru found it and gave it to the old man.

"Take a good care of you...hic... wife's last gift,  you are lucky i found it"

The old man looked confused.

"What?"

"It's not her last gift,  she still gives me gifts sometime"

Hikaru was almost going to kill that old man but thought that the old man still love his wife's present that much so he forgives him and left.

Somehow hikaru reaches home and knocks on the door.

:knock knock:

Sana was fresh out of bath, she opens the door.

Hikaru looks at her and says

"As beautiful as ever" sana blushed and also gets confused.

Yuki sees hikaru from inside the house.

Yuki comes at the gate and saw hikaru with his messed up hair and clothes.

"Sorry I drinked a little" said hikaru

Yuki pulled hikaru in the house and scolded him.

Hikaru did same thing in his world one time when he was forced to drink in an office party and whe he reached home he was hurt at various places. Next day hikaru promised her that he will never drink again. But now he did it again.

"I am sorry....hic.....i wil never ever will dronk in my life again"hikaru was crying.  Alcohol mad him a mess.

"If you did i am never talking to you again"

"I will not hic"

"Now go take a bath or else you will catch cold. You class tomorrow "

"Okay"

Hikaru taked a bath and went to sleep.

Next day he caught a cold and couldn't go to academy.
