Love Metamorphosis

Kenkyo Hanasaki a.k.a Nana Takahashi was in front of one of the cafes near Kyosuke Takahashi's apartment building at this time.

Kenkyo had already succeeded in fooling Kyosuke and Yamada, making the two men think that Kenkyo was really consumed by the talk that said that all Kims were criminals and should be avoided.

Kyosuke Takahashi is her adoptive brother, and Yamada is her schoolmate.

Kenkyo is a smart person, although she sometimes acts silly and insensitive. She was sure she could tell the difference between good and bad, even though she was only 17 years old.

Kenkyo needed to prove for herself whether Kyosuke and Yamada's words were true. And it seems, the Goddess of Fortune is siding with Kenkyo.

It was only this morning that Kenkyo found out that her former neighbor lived near Kenkyo's apartment as well. We don't know if it was fate that brought them together or what. Since returning to Japan 6 months ago, Kenkyo has lived a boring life. Restricted at home and only allowed to go out for school.

So, Kenkyo decided to seek more experience from now on. Yeah ... maybe by trapping the love of an adult man surnamed Kim for example.

While remembering everything, Kenkyo gets angry at Kyosuke. How could Kyosuke have lived in falsehood for these few months. Kyosuke always vows that he is Kenkyo's fiancé. Still a candidate. So, Kenkyo still has the right to refuse if Kenkyo finds her heart's dream. Like the handsome adult Kim, for example.

Kenkyo's ideal male taste is indeed strange. Ah, maybe it's all weird. Kyosuke, who clearly has a sexual orientation disorder, is now saying that he will marry Kenkyo in the future?

Seriously? Kenkyo already knows her adoptive brother obsession. It's not love, it's just obsession.

At most, if Kenkgo feeds a handsome Uke to Kyosuke, her brother will immediately forget if he wants to get engaged to Kenkyo. Just wait! Kenkyo will repay Kyosuke someday

Kenkyo was watching Kim Jae who was in the cafe. She was about to do something like a scene from the drama he just watched last night. There was a mysterious smile etched from Kenkyo's thin lips.

Kim Jae came out of one of the cafes near the apartment, where he lived while in Japan a few weeks ago.

Kim Jae walked leisurely while putting his hands in his pants pockets.

Thud!!

From the opposite direction suddenly a girl bumped into him and spilled a drink on his shirt.

"Hasshh! That sucks!" he grumbled while cleaning his wet shirt, hit by the cappuccino of the girl who hit him just now.

"Sorry! I'm so sorry, Sir! You must not be Japanese, hmm?" The girl bowed deeply, feeling so guilty.

Kim Jae is actually really annoyed, but he tries to suppress it.

"Hmm, it's okay. Don't worry!"

"Any road, I'm not Japanese, but I understand Japanese very well," said Kim Jae, without looking at the girl who bumped into him earlier. He was still trying to dry his shirt by wagging it.

"Once again, I'm sorry, Sir. If you need a laundry fee, just call this number." The girl who bumped into Kim Jae gave her a piece of paper with her name and phone number on it.

"Yeah, all right!" Kim Jae glanced at the girl, then jumped afterward. However, he couldn't help but scream.

Kim Jae acts calm like a stranger. He looked at the writing on the piece of paper in his hand.

"Kenkyo?" spelled Kim Jae, he then looked back at the girl who bumped into him.

The girl nodded. She stretched out her hand.

After a moment of silence, Kim Jae finally reached out his hand as well. They shake each other.

"Right, my name is Hanasaki Kenkyo."

"I'm Kim Jae."

"If you need laundry fees, please call me, Sir!" Kenkyo spoke, cheerful.

Kim Jae smiled hearing that. In fact, he can give the shirt along with the shop if necessary. However, Kim Jae appreciates the girl's good intentions.

"Okay, I'll keep this paper from you," said Kim Jae friendly.

The girl bowed again briefly, then left Kim Jae.

For a moment Kim Jae saw the young man's back which was getting further away. "Hmm... easy prey. I could use it to take revenge on Takahashi," he muttered.

Koganei Park, Tokyo, Japan.

It's March 27th, Koganei Park is full of people doing 'hanami'. Hanami is the tradition of having a group picnic while enjoying the blooming cherry blossoms in spring, usually they lay out a mat under the cherry blossom tree.

This moment will not be missed by these two teenagers and two adults. Like Kenkyo, currently Goddess of fortune is also siding with Kim Jae.

Jae and Kenkyo have their own goals why they act like they don't know each other.

Kenkyo felt that because her name had changed, Uncle Jae would no longer recognize her. Same goes for Kim Jae, because his current personality is very different from his silly personality when he was Daddy Jae, she definitely doesn't recognize him.

We don't know what their real goal is.

And as if fate had made them have to have a relationship like this. Who would have thought that Mizuki, Kim Jae's sleeping partner, was the older sister of Yamada, Kenkyo's best friend.

So, the four of them were enjoying hanami for now. Kenkyo, Yamada, Kim Jae and Mizuki. This is what made them finally look closer than they are today. Fate is strange.

The four of them sat on the mats looking up, letting the cherry blossoms fall on their faces.

"Let's see! What kind of food is there?" said Kenkyo while opening the box that was brought by Kim Jae and Mizuki earlier.

Mizuki joined in arranging the food in their midst. This meal was prepared by Kim Jae and himself this morning.

Kim Jae didn't tell Mizuki that he and Kenkyo had met yesterday because of Kenkyo's cappuccino spill. After Kim Jae investigates, it turns out that Kenkyo is a good friend of Mizuki's brother. The wider the opportunity for Kim Jae to approach the Takahashi girl.

Their eyes suddenly fell on some slightly charred omelette rolls.

"Oh my! What is this food?" Kenkyo shouted while flipping the omelet.

Kim Jae gasped, he knew the food very well. He brought his lips to Mizuki's ear and whispered.

"Stupid! Why did you put my failed dish earlier in that box, huh? After all, I was just making it for fun, and I told you to throw it away, right?"

"Oh yeah, I'm sorry, Jae. I forgot about that. After all, it's the result of your painstaking cooking. How could I throw it away, right?"

"Waahh ... so this is Jae's cooking!!" shouted Kenkyo, who was immediately excited. In fact, she had never called Jeje that romantic before.

"But ...."
