Note from me [ April 2009]

Here is the movie summary

Here are some snapshots I found online of Jihoon.

Boys Before Flowers Ep 13

It's a silly episode but here it is.

I think it is silly because it is so unbelievable that Jandi would fly all the way to Macau not making any hotel plans nor anything! Would u travel to another country not bothering to know anything about it??? And the F4 already helped her raise money for the flight, she is still so useless. Plus, why would she would stupidly follow the boy with no sense of wary! She is so weak here that it is annoying.

Jihoo is as sweet as ever and my god, did u see those eyes of his at the swimming pool when he was trying to comfort Jandi? Where the hell is GJP? This bf of hers is forever not around when she is in trouble or sad. It's always Jihoo who sticks by her and cheer her up...He really does do everything to protect her!!!! How on earth can she still think of GJP every day for 6 months when she has Jihoo?!!! I will pick Jihoon anytime!!!!!!!!!!

As for GJP, the min i saw him flirting with the girl and ignore Jandi pissed me off. Jihoo should so just grab Jandi, kissed her again and leave GJP hoping mad!

Part 1, Part 2, part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6,

Akai Ito Ep 09 Review

The long awaited video is up!

Sorry I got back late! For those who had been waiting forever, I have finished the summary for this episode! Enjoy the video and recap!

It's good episode but not one with climax for me after last week rollercoaster of emotions. Here, Mei finally learned her birth identity from her mum and she was even more shocked to receive an sms from Sara on her birthday!!! Next week will be better when Nishino mum finally meet Mei! Stupid Mami tried to kill herself in this episode but never die. Darn...how nice of her to try to kill herself on Nishino's birthday. Dumb lass.





Akai Ito Episode 09 Summary

After Taka's funeral, the group was still discussing how strange it feels to not have Taka joining in anymore. Seeing Nishino's departing figure, Mei told Mia to go ahead first and chased after Nishino. She asked Nishino to please tell her what exactly did Taka and him talked about in their last conversation. Nishino honestly told Mei that Taka had said that he thought he would be able to replace Nishino but it was impossible. "He was so silly to still be concerned about things between me and you." Nishino said. He then smiled weakly and added "We are obviously over.", before turning to leave.

Time fast forward, it was cold Feb. While heading to high school together, Mia suggested to Mei that the old classmates should get together to celebrate her birthday.

On the other hand at the shrine, Taka's dad handed Nishino an envelope, which contain Taka's belonging. The dad told Nishino that since he is Taka's good friend, he will entrust this belonging for Nishino to handle it. When Nishino looked at the content, it was a shrine "wishing" board that Taka had written before - wishing that Mei would be his girlfriend. Mami saw the exchange and asked about who Taka was. Nishino explained Taka had been his ex classmate and died in accident last year. Mami saw the wishing board message just before Nishino was going to burn it and asked Nishino if Taka and Mei had been a couple? Nishino honestly replied yes. Mami persisted and told Nishino that she is able to understand all his feelings and he should share with her what happen since she knew how it feels like to lose someone impt. Innocent Nishino honestly told Mami that Taka had met with him before he died, and was also waiting for Mei. However, Taka did not even get to see Mei one last time before he met with the accident. Nishino also revealed to Mami that Taka had said that an invisible bond (Akai Ito) is binding him and Mei together. "He cared about Mei so much, and yet he left this world with such a misudnerstanding." Hearing Nishino said that, Mami was troubled and uneasy.

Next, Mami tried to pry more information from Yui. Yui confirmed that Mei did go out with Taka for a while before his death. Without knowing Mami's intention, Yui happily revealed that it happens to be Mei's birthday this month, on the 29th Feb. Mami was shocked to learn about that! "29 feb" Mami muttered to herself. With those information, Mami went to Mei's school and looked for a surprised Mei.

In the cafe, Mami kept talking and digging up the past. She told Mei she had heard from Nishino about how nice Taka was to her, and how he had died, and how Mei must be feeling very lonely now. She then went on to ask if Mei's birthday is on 29th feb, and isnt it nice to share the same birthday as Nishino, one that comes once every 4 years. After a min pause, Mami continued
"However, I always feel that Nishino and I share a invisible bond, so...."

Before Mami could finish with her nonsense, Mei finally cut her off saying "Things between me and Nishino are over. It's already over." Mami finally shut up.

Between Nishino and his mum, she was excitedly talking about his birthday and how to celebrate it. "Did you think I had forgotten? Such an imot thing to Nishino, how can I forget about it!" The mum happily chatted on and played with Nishino's hair. "Seeing no reply from Nishino, the mum continued to ask if Nishino had dated some girls to celebrate with him. Nishino smiled and said no one. So the mum suggested to celebrate at home after her work. However after Nishino left, the mum did not go to work but headed to the park to have a smoke.

Mei's mum who had spotted her, introduce herself to Nishino's mum. Mei;s mum said she had a question to ask and that is why did Mei;s father died after being arrested. Even though he was arrested for the drugs, she just cannot understand the mystery of his death. Nishino's mum who was already stunned to see her, avoided the question and said why is she bringing up such an old topic. Mei's mum pressed on, asking if she is aware that Nishino and Mei are classmate?Nishino mum was shocked!

"Nishino is an upright kid who is gentle in nature, a very fantastic boy. Which is precisely why I think is what Mei likes about him. However when I knew about them being together, I couldnt not interfere, hence I requested them to go seperate ways. "Natsumi san, please. Take it as its for them, please tell me the truth!" Nishino mum remained quiet and walked away.

On her own, she had flashback of Nishino previous conversation with her, asking her to tell him the truth since the mum of the girl he liked asked him to split with the girl. At that time, she bumped into the drug guy.

When she was alone with Nishino, Mami revealed that she had looked up Mei few days ago. Nishino asked why. "Whatever I said before is for real, I definitely was not lying." Mami replied. Nishino paused to look at her with a serious look. Mami continued" I really want to stay by your side, to go through hard times together. I cannot continue to live on without Nishino. Am i not qualified to spend your birthday together with you?" Nishino replied after a second pause "Mami, let's celebrate together." The spineless bitch was overjoyed.

At home, Mei recalled all the times she had spent with Taka as she stare at the couple shot they took together.

When it was Mei's birthday, the group celebrated together. Mia told her exbf she is now with a great bf but it is none of his biz. The conversation went back to the cultural festival day they had in school and the conversation came to a pause when Sara's name was mentioned and they wondered if she is ok now. As they chatted on, Fuji suggested to visit Taka's tomb.

At the cemetry, the guys chatted to the tomb. Fuji asked Mei if the voice mail she was listening to in the hospital that night was from Taka, and asked what was the content. Mei said that many things had happened between them, and revealed that Taka had apologised about always thinking about himself, and that they should return as friends as they were in junior high..

"I know all of you are worried and I should move on. But I have to do something for Taka chan, Istill want to spend a little more time with him, I still think that way." Mei shared.

"You need not intentionally forget, you can still remem forever, your memories of him will now be your strength," Fuji said. "Yes, I believe that wouyld be what Taka want." Mia said. "So it is, perhaps so." Mei said with a smile.

At home, Nishino received a call from the rehab centre, saying the doctors are worried. Nishino asked isnt the treatment over? The nurse replied no, the mum had lied someone at home had passed over.

At the cafe, Mami appeared and tld the guy she is celebrating Nishino's birthday with him. The staff said, oh the rest just celebrated Mei's birthday here earlier.

At home, Mei heard her parents arguing. The father said that things between them should be seperated from Mei's matters. Mei's mum told the sister that her parents are getting seperatred. Their father revealed they cannot shared the same values anymore and they are drifting apart and its irrepairable. The mum said she had one more matter to share. The father tried to stop her but the mum said they are old enough now to handle it. The mum told mei, I am not your real mum. Mei was shocked!

Nishino found his drugged high mum at the club. "Oh Nishino is here to pick me up!" The guy said to Nishino. "Dont misunderstand. I did not contact your mum." Nishino dragged and told the mum to leave. "Even if she leave now, she will return." the man said confidentally. "You have destroyed her whole life, and all the people's lives around." Nishino told him.

"What? It's a sucky life to begin with. It is the drugs that helped them forget." The man told Nishino. He continued to provoke Nishino adding "Say such things after you know what your parents are thinking about. If you have no child, your life would be so much easier right Natsumi?" Nishino was in shock and the mum turned around and told him to stop. " Didnt you keep saying it? How nice it would be if this child was not born." The man said and the mum screamed at him to stop. "Dont you understand? The person your mum wants to live with is me, not you." The man coolly told Nishino. In rage of fury, Nishino stab the guy's leg with a fork before storming off.

Mei's mum started to reveal the begining of Mei and Nishino childhood since they were young, and how she had been living in the same building as Nishino when they were young. She also told mei about her dad arrested for drugs, but reemphasis that both her parents were never involved in drugs. "However your mum had chosen in desperation to abandon you and left this world. Which is why till this day, I can never forgive Natsumi san.It was me who told Nishino to leave you. However, after hearing the account from me, Nishino said nothing, just nod his head. Sorry Mei. It was not his fault. Mei, Do u like Nishino?" The mum asked.

That night, Haruna went to Mei's room and said she would follow her dad since he doesnt know how to do anything and would be a sorry state to live alone. "What will happen to us?" Mei asked. "Even if we leave apart, we will still be a family. So dont worry. But I have something to say about Nishino. Eveb if mum said all that because of Mei, but its up to Mei to decide." Haruna said seriously to Mei.

At the cafe, Mami continued to wait and the staff said isnt Nishino a little slow. Mami decided to call Nishino. However, the line was engaged as Nishino mum called him exactly that moment.
Mami unable to reach Nishino was devastated.

"At-kun? I'm sorry, I lied to u. At kun, its obvious u like mei but it was me who cause you two to part. I'm truly sorry. Mum will not give u more trouble from now on. "The mum said. "Its ok, please come back soon. I will wait for u." Nishino said to her. Nishino passed the board and reread Mei's message about her wish for his mum recovery and about how being with him halve her troubles and double her happiness.

At the same time, Mei, she recalled Taka's last words about the person she need to see and talk to is not Taka but Nishino. Mei also rem Nishino's words asking if she believed in destiny. That night, Mei went out.

On the shrine board, there was also another of Mei's message was wishing it would snow on their birthday.

Mei arrived at the cake shop, looking around but not seeing Nishino. That night, it really snowed. Shortly just round the corner, Nishino arrived at the same spot.

"You are late." Mei said to him. "So u did rem our date promise. Are u fine Nishino?"
"Not really" he replied
"Why didnt you tell me? No matter what happened, No matter what you tell me, I would always believe in you." Mei said.

Hearing that, Nishino rushed forward and hugged her.

"Can we still meet again?" Mei asked.
"Mei, a person will meet 3million people from day they will be born till they die. In between, 300o in school and work. Perhaps 300 people for those who get on really well. We had said before, within those people, regardless if its Taka, Sara, you or me, we are all destined together. I have learned something impt from Mei. So I believe no matter how far apart we are, there must be a reason to our meeting." Nishino said.

"At-kun, Happy Birthday." Mei said. At that, she sadly sucked in her breathe, and said By bye to Nishino. They both parted ways.

On her way back, Mei received an sms.
"Happy birthday Mei. I have things to say to you. Sara"

Nishino made his way to the cafe and apologised to Mami was being late. However to his shock, he found that she had slit her own wrist.

Episode 10
Summary and Video

C-Music: 林俊杰 Sixology

Was roaming HMV last night and belatedly saw the new album (released in Oct 08) - Sixology from JJ Lin.

I checked out the album and have to admit it is pretty good, and much much much better than Jay's album. not only his vocal is getting way better and control in the change in tempo is getting flawless. More imptly, at least unlike Jay, JJ doesnt release album for the sake of releasing one. Jay's album has been increasingly disappointing with tracks sounding more and more alike. Thankfully, JJ hasnt sold himself out yet!

For his collaboration with HK actress/ singer 蔡卓妍 on the track 小酒窝, while the track is ok, I'm not sure about his choice of singer partner. In the cantonese version, she sounded alright but he sounded weird with his pronouciation, in the mandarin version, the reverse problem occurs for the female singer.

On the other hand, one of the track within the album which had grabbed my attention the most was 醉赤壁 [download]. Great melody, good lyrics, fantastic vocal. JJ is proving to be a worthy Sg gem in the music industry.

Triangle Ep06

Just finished watching Triangle Ep06...the drama is getting better and better!!!!!! I take back what I said earlier in ep 2 review about it not being as riveting as I hoped. The suspense and mystery is building up and killing me!!!!!! So many questions!!!

Now that Shindo is killed off by Goda's friend...and confirmed he isnt the killer.... Apparently on the day of murder, he was busy bonking Sachie's mum at her home, which was why little Sachie ran off from home after seeing his shoe. I had guessed Shindo wasnt the real deal but I just didnt see it coming for Goda's friend to accidentally kill Shindo.

We now shift our attention to Kuroki's dad and Sachie's dad.... What else is Sachie's mum hiding? Since she has regained all her memory, she told the dad that she has confess her love affair with her ex-lover Shindo to Sachi but she did not reveal the dad's secret. Hmmmm.....

We also finally know Shimano is Sachi's brother as he claimed and hence his personal interest.

Also, what is Goya's other exclassmate Akimoto in shanghai has got to do with all these?!!!

The episode left off with cliffhanger that Kuroki told his dad he doesnt want to be look down and dead end career as his colleague if he continue on with Goda. I assume he is faking it to lure his dad's trust so that he can expose the secret his dad is hiding about the case 25years ago and his rapid ascend up the ranks... coool!

If you still havent watch this series, you should consider it!! I am so looking forward to next episode when Goda head to Shanghai!!! Dang!

Do you find the first track playing on the blog familiar, yeah, its the closing theme song for the drama. Nice eh! I love this track!!! Don't you?

Singer: 「小田和正」

Mei Chan no Shitsuji Ep05 Review

The "affection" speed development between Mei and Rihito drama is faster than the manga!! We finally get to see Rihito hugging Mei instinctively....Oooooooo..of course that will lead to juicy news in the school in next episode. I dont remember the manga having any ban on love relationship between Mistress and Butler, so I like to see the direction the script writer takes this to.

Mei Chan no Shitsuji Ep5 Summary
(watch source 1,or Source 2 )

The episode begins from last week where all the girls warmly welcome Lucia to join their class, with exception to Izumi and Mei. Kento grumbles about the fuss for someone who is rejoining the class after taking time off but was reprimanded by the rest glorifying Lucia being the lady of ladies, and being a worthy heiress of Hongo family being so perfect.

Lucia tried to walk and head towards Mei. As she almost stumble and fell. Mei and Rihito both reach out but it was Rihito who manage to grab her and stablise her. Mei look at them and was reminded of the previous scene at the green house where she witness Lucia hugging Rihito. Rihito told Lucia not to force herself but she smiled off saying the doctor encourage her to excercise more.

The white butler gave an evil smile and helped Lucia back to wheelchair, saying it is his hope that her health would get better. He looked at Mei with evil smile and added "Just like Mei who is also one of Hongo's potential sucessor." The whole class started murmuring in surprise, and Izumi started to understand the relationship dynamics.

Lucia pretend to be nice and reprimanded her butler not to say such things before the class. He apologised but added that since Lucia had returned to class, there was no reason to hide the truth anymore. At that, the evil white butler pretended to ask Rihito for agreement. He continued to taunt Rihito and spill out the secret that he was previously serving Lucia as his butler a year ago, much to frustration of Rihito and he turned around to look at Mei's reaction. The class started their own conjection at this new piece of information while Kento stare at his brother.

While alone, Rihito worriedly tried to bring about his past serving as Lucia butler but Mei interrupted him shrugging it off that she knew about it and it doesnt matter. At that, 3 of Mei's classmate came in, and said they were disappointed in Mei for stealing Lucia's butler from her. Before they walk off, they told Mei she is a terrible person for hiding the truth from them.

Meanwhile, the Sole girls continue to plot against Mei and pressure Izumi to conduct a test within a week. They demanded that all those who fail has to drop out of school. Izumi retorted such a sudden rule is obviously overboard but she was warned by the Sole girl to watch what she said, and this new rule was instated to protect the reputation of the school since undeserving students should be eradicated and expelled!

On the other hand, Lucia acted friendly towards Mei and invited her to join the rest to have lunch at Lucia's place. However seeing the hostile looks on the girls, Mei wisely declined. Lucia fake disappointment.

While eating alone, Mei was suddenly joined by little girl Miruku. Miru explained she declined Lucia's lunch invitation as she didnt want to revolve around her. Also she detest person like her who exploit her butler to do mean things against others. Mei tried to explain that it was the white butler who said things off his own accord. Miruku muttered "You sure are retarded." Unknown to Miruku, her conversation was overheard by sneaky white butler who was spying on them. The while butler slink away when he saw Rihito had discovered him hiding behind the doors. Kento on the other hand was deep in thoughts by himself. When he was hassled by Ayoyama to return to hostel, Kento glared at Ayoyama and walked off, leaving Ayoyama in shock.

In class, Izumi handed Mei a stack of books and started ranting that Mei had to pass the test no matter what. Mei was overwhelmed by a furious Izumi. Kiba whispered and explained to Mei that the rest of the Sole girls are all working for Lucia. Izumi suddenly turned around and grabbed Mei, insisting that Mei must not lose this battle and Izumi herself will join in the fight! An overwhelmed Mei asked if it was THAT serious with a silly grin. Izumi started shaking Mei saying that Mei will be expelled at this rate! A fuming Izumi ranted further where exactly is Rihito at such a critical moment?!

Rihito was in class with the head mistress, asking her rationale for allowing Lucia to be in the same class as Mei since he had already explained the Hongo situation to her prior Mei's enrolment.The head mistress asked Rihito is it is such a shock for him that Mei found out that he was previously Lucia's butler? Rihito started saying that wasnt his question. The head mistress cheekily teased him that he didnt denied he was shock afterall. She assured him Mei is fine and one looks forward to see how Mei deal with Lucia as her rival. Rihito explained Mei had never seen Lucia as rival despite being the true Hongo heiress. the head mistress laughed saying that was not what she meant. Just then, her butler informed her a group of man had gate crashed the school. The headmistress made a cute face and said she will pass such troublesome matter.

In the garden, Miruku and her butler Daimon were confronted by the gate crashers. They were informed that their daily matters will be evaluated as instructed by higher order. The evil white butler looked on from afar and grinned at the new problem.

Izumi was fussing about Mei's schedule. The 3 of them were interrupted by Daimon asking for Miruku's whereabouts. Izumi asked what had happened. Daimon was about to explain but was interrupted by Miruku's scream asking her captors to release her. All 3 were shocked and Daimon ran to her mistress.

Privately, Kento confronted his brother Rihito, asking to confirm if it was Lucia that has been creating troubles for Mei. Rihito told Kento to butt off. kento revealed he overheard the conversation between the white butler and Mei, about the scheming to get Rihito back to Lucia.. Rihito kept quiet. Kento agitatedly grabbed his bro and said "What sort of S butler are you? It's all your fault that Mei is suffering! Why dont you just return to that woman? Just go back to her! Wont that be a perfect solution? After that, let me be Mei's butler instead. I will protect her. I will be better suited than you. Just rem this. The next time anything happens to Mei, I will not forgive you. I will definitely NOT forgive you!" At that Kento stormed off, leaving Rihito to his thoughts.

During revision for the upcoming test, Rihito revealed that Miruku with her exception IQ once worked for the national defence research department and Daimon was one of the men working there previously. Mei rem that the captors had warned them to stay away from MI17 and Rihito explained that could be miruky's codename.

Next morning, mei strolled into class and greeted a listless silent Miruku. Daimon her butler apologised explaining she didnt get much sleep due to work. Mei was surprised! During class, the men stopped Daimon from applauding Miruku's solution and even reprimanded she took too long to solve the problem. Fordays, Miruku was piled up with boxes of paper work and not allowed to have lunch, eating supplement tablets only.

Seeing how listless and depressed Miruku was, mei finally stood up for her andasked the men not to bully Miruku. She then turned to Daimon stating that he should say something since he has a good relationship with Miruku. Daimon kept quiet. At this point, Rika told Mei she should worry more for herself and spend more time on her revision. Kento jumped in calling the men heartless and asking Miruku to take a rest being only a kid. Miruku instead reprimand Kento as being naive and mind his own business.

Alone with Rihito and Mei, Daimon explained that the organisation wants to prevent relationship to form between them, and for her to only obey orders from the dept. Mei was indignant that Daimon is not protesting but he explained both himself and Miruku are bearing with it till the guys return back to the org. Rihito explained to Mei that both of them are able to understand with their hearts hence the tolerance. Mei however said she saw how Miruku wish someone could help her. "How could one sever bonds so easily?" mei asked aloud. Rihito looked at her.
Mei excused herself to grab something from class. After she left, the evil white guy appeared and motioned Rihito to go outside.

In the class, Kento tried to stick up for Miruku but was manhandled by one of the guys. Miruku finally threw a book at the guy and was told she finally make a mistake. The girl yelled she is not a tool and ran off.

Alone, the white guy told Rihito his brother is interesting, not even hiding his liking for Mei despite the school ban, even thinking of becoming Mei's butler. Rihito asked what is he trying to say. White guy with evil grin asked Rihito hasnt he noticed Mei's affection for him? "you are an S rank butler. You know of ways to stop her from developing feelings for you but why didnt you? Have you injected your personal feelings instead of being a butler? not replying me? Then let me let u something interesting. Mei saw you at the greenhouse and how Lucia begged u." The evil butler laughed as he said it. "Her expressions then, was truly interesting" White guy continued grinning. Rihito lost his cool and grabbed him.

"Is the person hurting her myself, or you?" White guy asked as he flung Rihito's hands off. "If you are getting mad as a butler, compared to your brother, that is so boring. However if u are mad as a person, as a guy, then you truly are not fit to be a butler!" The white guy taunt Rihito. "i look forward to seeing what u would do." With that, the white guy smile victoriously and left Rihito speechless.

Meanwhile, Mei and Kento helped Miruku escaped school and went back to her hometown. While Miruku was asleep, Mei said she doesnt care the punishment but she just doesnt want to see Miruku and Daimon get seperated.

The next day, while all the butlers are fretting in one room, Izumi was handing out petition to the girls, asking for their signature to request the Sole girls to retract punishment for Mei. The girls were reluntant saying they didnt want to incur wrath of the Sole girls. Izumi explained they are classmates, and Mei is trying her best to help Miruku. Rika reject the idea to help but Izumi reminded her that it was Mei who had helped both of them after they lost the duel challenge.Izumi continued that Mei did not deliberately hide her identity and her efforts were witnessed by all. So the girls should stop picking on Mei.

A depressed Damion reread the note Miruku left for him, thanking him for his company up to now.

Miruku went crazy when she was let loose in a theme park. kento decided to join in. Mei tried to convinced Miruku to return to school but she refused. Wont Daimon be worried Mei asked. "Perhaps, but we will no longer see each other again." Miruku replied.

The org men informed Daimon Miru's whereabouts is found and she will be brought back to the organisation. Daimon tried to protest but the man informed him to stay put before he receive his punishment.

" I went to the org at 3yrs and only addressed by codename and used as tool. i stopped believeing in adults until Daimon, who was the only one who addressed me by my name. Only him who treat me as a person, as a child. he is my family. But I know he will leave me one day. So its alright. Daimon will be better away from me. So I am giving him up." Miruku shared to Mei at the aquarium.

Mei rebute and reprimanded her for pretending all is alright and if she is silly. Miruku started crying and yelled at Mei for not understanding! But Mei retorted that she does, "
always worrying about when one could see another person, the feelings of wanting to give up when all alone. I do understand. But all is over if u give up now. U want to be with him doesn tyou? to be with Daimon. So fight wth all your might. Stay strong. Dont give up! " Mei said. Kento listened on looking thoughtful.

"To think I said I will always accompany her." Daimon shared to Rihito. Rihito suddenly rem everything he had said to Mei, about always by her, not disappointing her, and their shared moments in all those challenges. He stood up suddenly with new resolve. The rest of the butler tried to stop Rihito and Daimon saying it will be worse if they both leave, and butlers who inject personal feelings will not end well. Suddenly they heard Rihito yelled for them to make way! "I am going to where Mei sama is!"

The head mistress was informed of Rihito and Daimon's action to rush to theirmistress. She then looked at an old letter and Mei's family photo when she was 2yr old, exclaiming these 2 woman (refering to mei's mum and mei) have the power to make a man be so determined about their decision, following their hearts. Meanwhile on their escape, Daimon and Rihito is confronted by Lucia in wheelchair waiting in the garden. She told Rihito, "you cannot save her its too late now. However Rihito sama, If it is me, I can save her, only if u are willing to return to my side."

AT the theme park, the swat like team masked soldiers arrived. Kento tried to fight them. Daimon appeared at nick of time to save Miruku. The men demanded Miruku to leave Daimon or they will shoot. Daimon refused to let go as he always want to be by her side. Miruku was touched to tears. Before the guys prepare to shoot, Kento stood before mei saying he will protect her.

Between Lucia and Rihito in the garden.
He rejected her, saying he is Mei's butler and rushed off.

Rihito rushed to the park, relieved to see Mei well and alone. He apologised for being late but Mei reassured him all is fine. The men suddenly left for no reason Mei told Rihito.

"Why is my hands starting to shake now. How strange. Perhaps I feel at ease now." Mei said with a dazed smile. At hearing that, Rihito stepped forward and hugged Mei from the back. Mei was too stunned to move. Rihito suddenly come to his senses and apologised. Kento came back and found Mei stoned. and his brother bowing and apologised. He sensed something was amiss.

In school, Lucia pretended to be nice to Miruku but she told Lucia to stop being a fake. She said she hacked into the defence system and found that it was Lucia who had ordered the men to come and attack her. "you sure like to use people. However, we will not be your puppets." Miruku glared at her and left.

In the room, Miruku was teaching mei. Rihito arrived and both were strange..

On the other hand, the 2 pyscho bitch and butler were hatching a new plot. The white guy said they cannot expel Mei in order to get Rihito back to Lucia. "Then use this" Lucia said. "Mei's weakness is Rihito and vice versa. It's time to be despicable, even if it means hurting Rihito, I must get him back!"

In class, everyone was crowding to see something. Kento was shocked to see the pictures of Rihito hugging Mei plasted all over the class room.

Afterthought
Lucia is a fruitcake, gone totally bananas. Why on earth is she so intent on Rihito and so stupid to repeatedly ask him to return to her. She thinks she is god? Keep telling people she has power to save them. I kept rolling my eyes. She is such an incredibly silly bitch. The butler is also equally psycho. Why she wants Rihito when the white guy fit her to a T? Crazy. So obvious she will never get or win Rihito's heart..STUPID!
