— {˙ღƸ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒღ˙} —— Work has been hard on her brother, she knows; he’s been cooped up in his office for nearly two whole days now. With Takuma gone on some business, there is no cheerful blonde to help him out with the confidential paperwork, and Yuuki knows she isn’t going to be any help… Still, she wants to help, and she knows exactly what to do.
˙ “Kaname-oniisama, I’m coming in,” she announces, balancing the tray carefully on one arm, while opening the door with the other. Papers everywhere, her oniisama at the desk; a smile appears on her lips, “You haven’t eaten since you started, have you?” Though they don’t particulary need to eat, it’s always nice to. “Time for a break, I made you lunch!”

He’d heard of the rumor, since news do travel fast.
His gaze fell onto the tray that she personally positioned across an empty spot of his desk. He blinked && stared at the horrific sight of her so called… masterpiece.
So the said rumor was true. He thought with disdain. Worry etched on slightly darkening features. Not only the food itself wasn’t edible, the coffee she offered him with a bright smile was too.
Is poisoning him her way of showing affection? He had hope not.
‘ I —- this is… ’ speechless.
He was grateful for her effort && understanding but was this his destiny? His fiance surely is a devil in disguise, is she not? In all his years of existing, it was the first time he was reluctant of eating something they call food. ‘ …thank you, Yuuki. I’ll…. eat them…. later? ’ Though genuine his smile appeared, a sweat of bullet fell onto the side of his cheek; revealing his agitation
