“Hikka-teeth-bro, you worry over something weird.” Say Karina over his shoulder.
Hikaru turn to face Karina and grab her shoulder, “I don’t want you to get pregnant early especially when you will live alone in that house. I will check your house every day to ensure he’s not there and do anything pervert to you.”

Nobuhiko surprise to hear it and whine, “You should help me to overcome my nervous not make it worse.”
“Just think it as payback for give permission to Hikka-teeth-bro to break Keito’s bone. Maa… good luck for it. I will leave you as I don’t want my beloved brother to get more nervous than right now before his ceremony.” Say Karina before walk away from the room.
********************
Karina greets her relatives that come for the wedding ceremony and she really happy that her brother meet his soul mate. Mana notice her and give hug before says, “It really hard to believe Nobuhiko will get married. Does the girl that he married to is nice person?”
Karina remembers this would be the first time Nobuhiko show Bara to everyone except for their aunt. She smiles before says, “That girl that Nobu-nii choose is the best girl for him. If she is not suit for him, I won’t approve his relationship with that girl.”
“We believe in your taste.” Say Mana.
The ceremony goes smoothly and everyone wish for the couple’s happiness. Karina takes her seat beside Keito and hears he says, “It is really great ceremony.”
“Yeah! It really great. I still can believe my brother actually could manage the ceremony.” say Karina. Both of them hold each other hand as Keito could see tears at the girl’s eyes.
When come to reception, Mana meet Keito while Karina help Bara on something, “Thanks for always support Karina-chan.”
“See her smile make me happy and I really want to see it more.” Reply Keito.
Mana look around to ensure Karina is not around them, “I’m sure you already know what happen to her group, right?” Keito nods, “I need your help to look after Karina. She’s actually break apart inside herself but put up strong mask at outside. I know you could do it because you’re her lover.”
“I will make sure she’s okay until she could move on.” Say Keito.
Karina gets near them and notice those two people talk about something serious before try to ask, “What are both of you are talking about?”

She already makes sure everything already been clean as the newly-wed already leave for their honeymoon. She already informs her members that she won’t return home as she will go straight to Osaka as she has shooting there.
“You should remember that night breeze just too cold for you especially when you’re wearing that thin clothes.” A voice interrupts her thought.
She turn to see it is Keito that make he asks, “Why you still here? I thought you have worked tomorrow morning and it already late right now.”
Keito seem sad to hear it, “It seem you forget that we have same work tomorrow and already agree to go together.”
“Ah!” Karina totally forgets about it, “It seems I really busy until forget about it.”
Keito take seat beside her and asks, “Still worry about that? You’re idol and I’m sure you don’t want to make your fans worry about you, right?”
“I just worry over other things…” Karina makes worried face, “…I haven’t packed my things yet and I’m lazy to do it.”
Keito shock to hear it but only manage to let out chuckles and pat her head gently, “You’re really carefree girl.” Karina smile to him before snuggle to make herself comfortable. Both of them go to Osaka by using Karina’s car since there are no train run at that time.

"Eh?! She will wear that? Is she tried to say that she will get marry soon?” Reika make assumption.
Harada shook to deny it, “We’re sure none of you would want to wear wedding dress for the PV and she just volunteer for that.” He throws question, “If Karina-chan doesn’t want to wear wedding dress, will any of you want to wear it?”
No one give reply as they know that matter really hard for them. Rin says, “She always does that ne…”

“I always watch you and know how you love your group despite you always say you hate them. You may not realize it but I always see you seek for affection when you’re alone. When you on stage, you always make telepathy with everyone including your members to let everyone who watch you enjoy what they want. That spirit that you show always impresses me.” Say Hikaru. He turns his face to other place as he could feel blood rush to his face. He cough a bit before says, “Let’s choose what you want to buy and let’s leave here.”
