it really wasn't the popularity and attention that troubled mai's mind, despite the fact that it is sometimes the reason— this time's different. ever since you came along, stepping out of your comfort zone to request of being friends with her, she felt something inside her shift as she first glanced at you. you were.. absolutely breathtaking, to say the least yet that definitely wasn't the case. the more time she spent with you, coming over to your house and going on friendly dates to various cafes, the model sensed that one certain thing bothered her; your whole being, from looks to personality, she was hypnotized by you. and it wasn't long before finally confessing her feelings to you, which were warmly accepted, that's one of the many things she was surprised about once again.

as wealthy as she is, she didn't hesitate to invite you to a five-star hotel in the center of tokyo, where you could see every little detail of the city throughout the balcony. it seemed like an ordinary action she'd think of while so mindlessly in love, but this time it was a present for christmas; spending the whole day with her in one of the best rooms of the estate.
