You were in a party, scanning the sea of people for your reference for a new column in the magazine's next issue. Your friends huddled behind you, helping you spot the perfect guy for this.

How to lose a guy in ten days.

Meanwhile, Kozume Kenma was talking with his long-time friend, Tetsurou Kuroo.

"You, planning to sell jewelries?" Kuroo huffed in amusement. "What do you know about jewelries and women?"

Kenma rolled his eyes, "I'm pretty sure I can understand women. They probably function the same as the light novels you made me play."

"Women are different in real life." Kuroo snorted. "But hey, if you're so confident about it — how about this? I'll agree with this partnership proposal of yours if you win this deal."

Kenma frowned, but he was willing to do anything if it meant raising his value.

"Make a girl fall in love with you in ten days — if she walks in the event next Sunday as your partner — and is in love with you, I'll accept the proposal." Kuroo leaned over, twirling his champagne.

Seems easy enough. Kenma thought. "And you get to pick the woman, no?"

Kuroo grinned, "That girl in the gray dress and a pretty smile."

Kenma glanced back at you, assessing. After a moment, he turned to Kuroo, a small smirk on his lips.

"Deal."
