Eris clasped the caine slipping it in to its holder. She gripped his arm some and keep close. "this is they fun part about being blind...having a handsome male lead you around" She was teasing him. she leaned in to him some. "in time you will get use to this aspect."

She knew this sound and smell fair to well thanks to her brother. "And I thought you said for are first date we would go swimming" She smiled. "There is nothing wrong with a best friend there the ones that end up sitting next to you in jail smiling like a fool" She held her hand out to Sermon. "It is nice to meet you" She still had her sun glasses on.

"WHOA!" Benjamin reflexively caught Henerietta before she could hit the concrete at the bottom of the pool they were in. Realizing he was close to him, he let her feet settle on the ground before letting go, blushing. "Okay, I'm not the smartest guy in town, my choice of words while you were up there probably proves that." He placed his hand around the back of his neck. "Anyway, you did ask for my age. Eighteen. Graduated last year and been working for a landscape company since then." He smiled a little when he thought about Henrietta's answer to his question about music. Maybe she is a fan of Led Zepplin.

Smiling Lodan led ehr up to the house and shook the ladys hand. He smiled and didn't pay much attention to what she said as they were led through the house. His parents made sue every house they were looking at had what he wanted. A big back yard so he could play football with the guys or throw the ball with his son or play fetch with his dog. So he was zoning out as they went through the house until them came back to the front door. "It is a very big house. That is for sure." He said with a smile. "What do you think though? Do you want it or do you want to look at a house in the city? The yard isnt as big there. Here you have 80 acres. There you will get maybe the square of the house." She told them really trying to sell this house. Lodan figured it was the one that she got the most profit from the faster she sold it.

She smiled politely she loved the house but she was easily pleased with that sort of thing. She loved the big garden and spaciousness of it all she could have her cat here surely the black kitten named Ash was only nine weeks old she had him a week so she wasn't letting him go that easy. "I like it what do you think?" She replied sweetly she knew she should act her best to please him and his parents overwise she would be sent back to he parents in a box covered in caution this being is foul and has a temper written across it in big bold black letters. The thought made her smile. Ha like they'd get her in a box!

Adam, when not under pressure to do what he did not want to do, found it easy to speak his mind, but unfortunately this was not the case this time. With him playing the role of a concerned passer-by, who just happened to be a youth and someone who didn't like to see someone upset, which was the total opposite of his true self, he hoped to see how much he could find about about this girl before the window of opportunity of being someone mysterious closed. Even that charm was something he hadn't done before, but seemed to ease the tension to allow her to speak freely.

As she did speak freely, he begun to regret asking her, "U-uh, well...I'm 15". What on earth was his parents thinking of hooking him up with such a young....girl. He was 19, a grown man, a young adult, ready to take on the world, and now he had someone to cling onto his cloak and as for what she fancied. Now this was just silly. This was baby-sitting, not dating. His old man really was getting ill then, for he was really losing his marbles to not know how this will affect his social status to marry a girl 4 years younger than him, and didn't a girl under 18 need parental consent for almost about everything.

He done his best to listen regardless, as she explained how her parents arranged the marriage with his own and how nervous she was. He could tell by the way she moved and how she had said she was nervous twice already, and how she didn't want to go against her parents will, much like he didn't want to. Did he really have to do this? His future on the line, and he was with someone that was old enough to be his younger sister, but his wife?!

"Those rebellious teen years skipped over me......So, what about you? I don't think I caught your name yet", bringing his silence and obscurity to an end. If he didn't do what his father asked, then there was the possibility that his estate would go to his younger and more friendly brother. Damn him! Damn them both! Why did he have to be in this position. It was so unfair. Though what gave him a little bit of encouragement was the fact that like him, she too was innocent in this whole affair, that like him, she didn't want to disobey, and she was also smart, wishing to know the man she was speaking to then allow a stranger to be so near to her and know not his name. Perhaps mentally, she was older than she looks. She could always use her angel innocence, to make him look more pleasing than his brother. Maybe he did need to soften up. In their dreams.....

"So, you've missed out on being young and forced to be an adult already. I pity you, as I know exactly how it feels. I've always aimed high to be in my fathers' good books, yet no matter what I do, everything I try and do ends up not being good enough and having to do something else all the time, that I just gave up on being the yes-man and instead, grew up. Some things are simply beyond our control, until the time comes", he replied in a casual manner, to give her a little bit of background and create some sort of correlation between them.

As he said that, he then heard some noise from towards the fountain, seeing a young female on the fountain with a young male standing by, "LISTEN UP, YOU SAPPY, ANNOYING COUPLES!". Well, that counted him out for sure, for he sure wasn't being sappy now, as he turned back to Akiko, still not used to the idea, but if he complained, then he'd only get asked why didn't he give it a shot, why he didn't give her a chance. Giving in, he then turned to her and smiled, a warm smile at that, "My name's Adam, Adam Leroux.....Your knight in shining armor, or rather, shining suit", as his left hand moved to his suit where he rubbed it with the top half of his fingers, being all professional like. With his right hand, he then took the rose from his shirt pocket and passed it to her, "For you", not saying anymore. If she didn't like it, then he could easily have it back. The red rose looked pretty nifty with his red shirt and red hair.

"WHOA!" Henrietta fell into warm arms - well, isn't this comfy.

Setting her down, Benjamin blushed - isn't he a lady's man, she thought sarcastically. "Okay, I'm not the smartest guy in town, my choice of words while you were up there probably proves that. Anyway, you did ask for my age. Eighteen. Graduated last year and been working for a landscape company since then."

Tipping her head to the side, Henrietta observed Benjamin rarely. He's really patient. "You seem quite smart," she said. Henrietta pulled her soft apricot hair back before setting it down and letting it fall over the small of her back - resting on the silky white material of her wedding gown. "Landscape company, eh? I either want to be a waitress or the president. That is, if my singer-violinist career fails."

A sudden gust of wind blew and picked up her bright, long hair, making her rose and pearl covered gown swoosh around her. On her back were tattoos of small black birds flying up from the top of her dress over her shoulder.

Reaching out, Henrietta curled a lock of Benjamin's light hair before running her fingers down his face and neck. She found it adorable, how much he blushed. "You know, love, we're getting married. I'm quite sure you'll be doing a lot more than catching me, no?"

Henrietta looked over Benjamin's shoulder to spot a red haired man with a small girl that looked about - 12. She raised a delicately arched eyebrow at him, her red lips tilting into a playful smile. "Bringing your sister along to your wedding, pumpkin?" she asked.

A part of her wondered if that was his fiancee - they looked somewhat awkwardly intimate. Well, then, Henrietta. You've just insulted two more people. What's that - 912 hit lists you'll be on now? Well done!

"Apologies, strangely attractive man and his very pretty fiancee," she said - surprisingly genuinely. Henrietta curtsied, rather sarcastically but a lovely curtsy nonetheless. Her strawberry blonde hair cascaded in soft waves past her bare and tattooed shoulders before she rose. "Never miss a good chance to shut the hell up is what my pimp always says. But on the other hand, you have fingers," she mused, wiggling her fingers up in the sky like she'd never seen them before.

Oh, Henrietta. You are hilarious.

The Orchestra's Melody is Being Heard throughout the Big Dome, Everyone was Quiet.
After The Concert, Mark's Maid Arrived.
"Splendid, My Master. Anyways, Would You Mind to Come With me?" asked Sisa, His Personal Maid.
"Yes, I Wouldn't Mind it." Mark answered Sisa as they Rode the Car 'till they Arrive In The Park.
While the car was still moving, The Maid told him the Reason why Mark rode the Car.
"My Master I'm Sorry for Keeping this... the Truth is the Reason why you needed to ride this car is because, You're about to meet your wife. the Heiress of the Hearst family."
"Don't worry Sisa, It's Alright."

When Mark Exited the Car, He Saw a Pale Skinned Girl with Round Face, Eyes. It was his First seeing This Girl, She Was Beautiful for his Eyes, Black hair, The Well Trimmed Nails....
He Walked Closer to The Girl to ask her what is she Doing There.
"Miss, Who are You Waiting For?" He Asked the Girl with a Straight Face. No Emotions, trying to Hide The Fact that He Likes The Girl's Appearance.

"Singer, huh? I happen to know how to play guitar, just for fun. It helps relieve the stress that sometimes builds up in me from work. The co-workers are great to be around, but some of them can get pretty lazy on the job sometimes, you know?" Somehow, the conversation began to relax him, but Benjamin was not sure of the reason. Was it because she was not being as obnoxious, now, or was it something deeper? He could not tell, for now. Maybe later on, during the marriage, he would have time to sort out the reasons. Quite frankly, as Henrietta ran her fingers on his still red face and neck, he did not seem to mind, this time.

"You know, love, we're getting married. I'm quite sure you'll be doing a lot more than catching me, no?"

"Oh, I'm sure!" Wait! Weren't you a bit uncomfortable by how flirtatious she was being, earlier? Again, this was one of those moments where he could not sort out his opinions on the matter, as of yet. And yet, for the moment, Benjamin felt a little confident in how things might go.

He silently listened to her as she talked. When she was over, there was a small pause before he talked.

"So, you've missed out on being young and forced to be an adult already. I pity you, as I know exactly how it feels. I've always aimed high to be in my fathers' good books, yet no matter what I do, everything I try and do ends up not being good enough and having to do something else all the time, that I just gave up on being the yes-man and instead, grew up. Some things are simply beyond our control, until the time comes" He finished as her eyes widened. She never met someone who was like her. Let alone to find him in this park with her. He gave her a warm smile before continuing.

"My name's Adam, Adam Leroux.....Your knight in shining armor, or rather, shining suit"[/b] Immediately, she felt the blush grow on her face. She didn't expect to be talking to her husband. Her blush grew as he gave her a single rose.

"For you" He stated as she gave him a smile and took it.

"Thank you. Red roses are my favorite." She said happily. She was happy that he actually showed up. Plus, he seemed really nice. Maybe this wasn't so bad.

"Bringing your sister along to your wedding, pumpkin?" A girl yelled over as she blushed even more. She wasn't quite aware of the difference of age until she had pointed it out. Looking up at him, she noticed that he probably already reached. Even though she felt saddened by the age difference, she didn't let it show. No, she was taught better than that.

"...I'm sorry for being so young... I bet you weren't expecting someone as young as me.... But I'll try my hardest to be the best bride I can be and follow your orders to the letter." She stated as she met his eyes and giving a slight smile.

"Apologies, strangely attractive man and his very pretty fiancee," That one girl yelled again as Akiko looked back down at her wedding dress. "Never miss a good chance to shut the hell up is what my pimp always says. But on the other hand, you have fingers," Akiko just smiled back and nodded slightly. It was a strange woman but she wasn't one to hold grudges unless they were necessary. After that, she returned her gaze back to Adam and smiled.

Lodan looked shocked thens smiled. "It is all you, as long as I have a big yard I am good. We can look at others if you want." He told her. If they had actually been in a relationship before this he would have kissed ehr head. Now he wasn't sure what to do. He was getting the instinct to but didn't want to upset her. "Whatever you want. You can have it. All yours." He smiled at her.

She smiled at him."To be honest I'd be happy anywhere I can keep Ash. Oh Ash is my cat." She replied she wanted to laugh at his shocked face it'd only my parents that normally make me go all bitter well them and Amy other person trying to control her life." I think if we both like it and can see ourselves here then we should go with our instinct." She said it was actually a smart thing to say yes she was intelligent but she rarely showed it much.

Lodan couldn't help but keep smiling. She seemed like she had so much to say but felt like she had to watch herself. She would talk about things then stop and she got a look like she wanted to say more. "Do you see yourself here?" HE asked her the lady looked a weird. She had this look that wasn't sure if it should smile or puke. It made Lodan laugh but he quickly quieted down and looked back at Holli

Sermon shooked her hand while Scarlen turn a bright red.
"Oh! The pool is out back." Sermon says with a grin. "But I know your not gonna go swimming in that get up. Are you?"
Scarlen shook his head. "You know I leave and extra towel and swim trunks here."
Sermon nod at them. "And I believe we have some clean swim suits and towels for Eris as well."

As Walker and Sven drove to where Walker was going to meet the woman to be shackled to him, Sven turned off to a hospital.
"What, is she sick?" Walker asked, eyebrow raised.
"No," Sven responded, "I figured you're going to want to have a certain someone with you." as he said this, a little 7-year old girl with long blond hair came running out of the hospital, and Walker's eyes lit up as he ran out to go and hug her, picking her up off of the ground as he did so.
"Sara!!! You can walk again!!!" he said, holding her close. Sara smiled in response, signing out her response with her hands.
<Yes I can, Daddy! Are we meeting New Mommy today?> Walker nodded in response, tearing up a bit.
"Yes, Sara... Yes we are..." he said, picking her up and carrying her to the car, Sven driving off once they get in.
(OoC: Whoever I'm paired off with, just have Sven drive up, I'll rp Walker getting out.)

Louis Cole

The sun was shining as Louis' blond hair lit up, as the rays of sunshine descended upon him. It was his big day. A day that he would come to remember for the rest of his natural-born life. It was the day, that he would meet his bride-to-be, yet it didn't seem as thrilled and excited as he thought he would be. People changed over time, both in the way they acted, and the way they looked, and the bride he was supposed to marry was one who he had not known for long, except for one occassion a few years ago. Louis was kind-hearted to a fault, and despite his weakness and his fears, he presses on, no matter what, especially when he knew he was doing it for someone. This someone he was about to meet properly and get married to, to spend his life with, would be someone special that he would love and care for, though he still had some superstition, trying to remember the face he had been shown when they briefly met, he set about trying to put some sort of image together.

This was no dream. It was reality. He thought that he would be the one who got to choose the love of his life, but instead, the one for her was already picked, yet it didn't stop him from being kind towards other females, though he refrained from dating, knowing he could not. In his dreams, he saw himself as a Prince, rescuing his Princess, the love of his life, but they were only dreams, and dreams do not come true. It was all made up, made up of things that people desired, what people sought, what they were after, their happily ever after, but in reality, there was no such thing. What they should be thankful for, is what they did have, and what was real, what was there, even if he got grief from the other lads when he wouldn't ask a certain girl out. He was not as wealthy and rich as some, in terms of riches, but then one had to define what they meant by being rich, was it economically rich, or in another sense. He was rich in love, in kindness, in care, in happiness, and as for wealth, well that was mostly kept in the family safe and used sparingly, either because they weren't super rich or just didn't wish to spend cash on things that were not important.

What they did view as important, was talent, things that made people stick out. For Louis, it was that of his music in playing the violin. He found it smooth, calm, relaxing, a great joy to listen to and appreciate, which he did alot. There was many variations of music noadays. Different styles. Different beats. Different sounds. Louis liked to play music that could not only be heard, but also be felt, as if he was reaching out to his audience. Ever heard how music is commonly referred to as soul music, sound of the heart...well that's how he felt. He wanted sounds that had feeling, sounds that literally played on the heartstrings. The music he would compose himself was often how he felt. There are those who have their emotions hidden, others have on their sleeve for those round them to see, but Louis was one who wore his emotions in his music for all to hear.

However today, he was not playing in front of just any crowd. He had played here and there, but nothing big really. Today however, would be an act that faced the toughest crowd, and that if he did not play well, then he would of failed miserably, and failed his parents. The biggest day of his life, as he composed himself, rather than his music, in keeping a straight posture, to remain calm and strong, constantly telling himself to "man up". Though they had met awhile back, it was some time ago and people change, and now was unsure what he was to look for. He didn't know a lot, and yet everything was at stake, despite his parents telling him he had met her before, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. In his time, he had met so many, helped as many, so it was hard to pinpoint which girl they were referring to. It was only a matter of time before all was revealed, so before he makes a fool of himself and ends up asking every female sees if they are waiting for him as their Mr.Right, he pulled his phone from his jacket and did the only thing he could do, something he did not like doing especially now as he was supposed to be growing up, which was to call his mother. "Hi, it's me..Umm where's the meeting place again?", he asked, deliberately giving no room to say mother or mum in a public place as he walked in the huge park, where the girl who he was to meet with could be literally, anywhere.

As always, mother was ever so helpful, in being not so helpful as he told him about the meeting place being at the fountain, reminding him of her name, and then going on and on and on, about how to act, what to do. He just felt like telling her to leave him to it, to let him do it himself, but he didn't have the heart to. Afterall, it was her and father that arranged it all, and they did not want him to fail, which added even more pressure to the situation. Once her lecture was ever, he headed towards the fountain. As he walked, he looked left and right and seeing other couples being here, there and everywhere, on the gras, on park benches, and then that's when he saw a young female shouting from the top of the fountain, a blond haired like him, yelling at all the couples while she appeared to have none beside her. Don't say this was her? Would he even get a word in? as she kept going on, reminding him of mother, before she then fell, thankfully caught by a young male, but by the way they acted, it seemed they were together, so definitely not her.

Looking around furthur, he approached the fountain until he saw another girl near the fountain, sitting on the ledge, on her own, with no male counterpart with her. She had what could be described as strawberry-blonde hair but he wasn't quite sure. It had been some time, and anyone could dye their hair, but it seemed that she was the only other female about the fountain which was the arranged meeting place, so it must be her. Picking up his courage, he then walked over to her, while his mind ticked away trying to remember when he did last meet this girl those few years ago, as alot happened in a year, before his thinking time was cut short as he was infront of her. He could not deny how beautiful she looked, but the time for gazing would come later, as he then spoke up and said softly, "Misa?", remembering the name that his mother had told him, hoping this was the one and hoping he hadn't just made an idiot of himself by asking the wrong person.

Sage could feel the awkward atmosphere, He rubbed the back of his neck. "So..... I guess it's nice to meet you too". He looked down at the ground not knowing what to say next. He thought meeting his so called "future" wife would be a little more exciting, now it actually was quit awkward. he stood there in silence waiting for words to pop into his head.

Adam Leroux

He was not making it up when he spoke about his own childhood, if he could call it childhood. Everytime he did one thing, he was always competing with his brother, so the only way he could avoid that was to do things that he was old enough to do, things that he was too young to do, and as a result, Adam grew up faster than him, and remained an asset to his father, despite his attitude problems. At the moment, he was doing his best to keep a calm and friendly posture in order not to mess the meeting up. It was as if he was a completely different person, but it didn't matter...if anyone called him bad again, he could always put on this face again and let her have some bites of the big cake that would soon be his.

Since Adam was working on the business, his brother attended college, and as a result was furthering his education whereas Adam was not, though in his opinion he didn't need it, since he was born quite smarter than others, so why bother. It only meant that his brother was making sure he had more weapons to arm himself with, but he'd lose if he didn't carry out fathers' wishes, even the outrageous ones like this. It is what he meant by "until the time comes", though the deeper meaning of those words was referring to the time he did take charge, no longer under his fathers' shadow, leaving how he liked. The only downside would be no father, but the good news was that his annoying brother would be under his mercy. If father partnered him up with someone 4 years younger, maybe give him 6, that would be hilarious, though not like some in the news of those with a double figure gap. Now that was mad.

After announcing who he was, he noticed her cheeks growing rosey red, and then with the rose, she was definitely turning into a red picture. Red was such a wonderful colour, and was glad she liked the rose, "Red roses are my favorite", which meant that she wouldn't complain when he took over the decor and allow red to dominate. Though not too much mind, or he would be too much. Just as he was about to respond to her comment about red roses, the girl who had yelled previously, had then looked towards them.

With his attention taken away to the other girl, his blue crystal eyes looked up to the other girl, [i]"Bringing your sister along to your wedding, pumpkin?". He could not be angry at her for stating the obvious as they were his thoughts when Akiko had told him her age, and as for "pumpkin", well she must be talking to him, but she sure was colour-blind if she couldn't tell what a perfect red was in his hair. Even with the age difference, she seemed to be a little like him, in the sense they had to act older than they were in order to go up in the world, and the fact they were both from wealthy business families, the Leroux's and the Suzuki's. Hey, that would be quite a handsome sum of money that the pair would have since she too must be the heir of the Suzuki estate.

Adam sometimes couldn't help thinking about making profit, but maybe that's why his parents had spoken to hers in order to secure a future for both their Houses and as a result, they offered both of their heirs. If he backed out, then his brother would only jump in to annoy him, and he was alot more closer to her age, but then he heard her apologise for something that wasn't her fault, and he could hardly let her go, as strange as it seemed. "...I'm sorry for being so young... I bet you weren't expecting someone as young as me.... But I'll try my hardest to be the best bride I can be and follow your orders to the letter.".

He noticed that she had blushed again, but this time she gave a smile after being all apologetic, in which he smiled back to make her feel better, before the girl before called out again, "Apologies, strangely attractive man and his very pretty fiancee,", which only made his smile widen. Adam might be quite a hard man to get along with, his workers could tell anyone that, but compliments surely go a long way, but then all the compliments wouldn't save you from Adam's wrath if you annoyed him too much. Thankfully it was not the case yet, as he passed anything that annoyed him by.

But with compliments to him, he always liked to return them with one of his own, "Why thank you. Your not so bad yourself. You both, look, stunning", including the young man she was with, as they were no doubt together and when he caught her falling and him catching, it seemed like one of those fantasy stories, but life wasn't a fantasy, sometimes things happen what you least expect, and in the end, they have a chance of actually coming out well. With his own experience, he saw that when people's spirits were lifted, it made them more happier, so in reverse, if you wanted them to fear you, then you do the opposite, which is what he tended to do at work when they annoyed him as well as reminding them whose boss.

Turning back to Akiko, he smiled, then took her hand and looked into her eyes which were blue like his, the only clear part of him, "One thing you should know about me, is that I'm not afraid to speak my mind. You have a mouth, use it", winking, before continuing, "Now, what you said about those red roses Angel...what you think of red heads?". He kept his face straight as he awaited a response, while he tilted his head left and right to try and picture her with red hair. She was young, so she dressed young, despite her acting older than her age, so she could probably make some changes to her wardrobe as he did, or he'd be wearing a thin top and denim jeans. He had fished for a compliment after giving her a compliment, so it was the case if his bait would be bitten.

Thing was, you couldn't change nature. You couldn't say when you could be born, only wait to come out into the world, so they'd get through it. They had to, and she had already given her consent that she'd follow his orders, though it was not what imagined for a wife, but you never know. What would happen between them depending on both parties.

She smirked some. "And i thought you where going to teach me how to take a swing" She chuckled some. "this is going to be fun and new....i don't even know if i remember how to put a swim suit on or even swim" She chewed at her bottom lip thinking some, she new she would be fine most likely but still there was a bit of uneasy with this.

"One thing you should know about me, is that I'm not afraid to speak my mind. You have a mouth, use it" he said, winking before continuing, "Now, what you said about those red roses Angel...what you think of red heads?" He finished as she smiled back to him.

"Red heads are striking... but charming. The color red itself is a beautiful and vivid color. It is rare to find a red head like yourself, but when you do, it makes the moment even more momentous." She finished while looking into his clear blue eyes, hers being innocent and pure.

"Also... I'm not used to speaking my mind... My parents liked it better when I was silent.... but if you want me too.... I'll try to speak my mind too.... If you want me to of course." She ended as she continued to look into her eyes. His eyes looked amazing. She was always fond of blue eyes, hers being the same color.

"By the way... Your eyes.... They're so... Blue... and splendid." She said while staring into them. It wasn't like her to get lost so easily in someones eyes, but here she was looking into those amazing eyes and unable to break eye contact.

He gave a nervous laugh when she talked about the both of them marrying, he had always thought he would have a year or two of being single. Not that he was the playboy type but he enjoyed having the freedoms of a single man. He felt bad about the curtsy he had never thought of himself in the way to deserve respect as that. But he was sure that if she hadn't her mother would have said something to her later.

"Well Scar it's nice to meet you..." he gave a goofy grin -"God I just sounded really stupid"- he thought.

"I'm sorry if you don't want to marry me. I know I am not anything special. Nothing good to look at."

Had David just heard those words come out of her mouth what happened to this beautiful girl for her to think such things.

"I'm not disappointed at all, You're one of the prettiest girls I've ever seen" he gave a warm smile and thought about putting his hand on her shoulder. But he didn't want to make Scarny feel any more uncomfortable then she already was.

He turned to her parents out of respect to them "You wouldn't mind if Scarny and I went for a walk around the park for a little while and chatted would you?" he then turned back to Scarny "Unless you'd rather not Scar".

---

Mimmi decided to go back to the spot where her parents had dropped her off a while before. That was when a car pulled up. It was a large black car but not a limo like her parents. The driver came out and walked up to Mimmi, he gave a respectful bow.

"Hello miss my name is Sven... If I may ask miss are you here for the" the man cleared his throat. "For the marriage arrangement by chance" he reached into the inner pocket of his jacket and pulled out and envelope.

Mimmi blinked out of surprise... this man was old enough to be her father maybe even her grandfather. Surely her parents didn't marry her off to someone so old.

The man noticed the awkward look on her face and must had perceived what she was thinking "I am doing this on behalf of my masters son. I'm afraid if he had been entrusted with the symbol paper he probably would have disposed of it" said Sven.

Mimmi gave a small sigh of relief and reached into the pocket of her sweater, after handing the paper to Sven and observing the symbols carefully it was determined that they did indeed match. Sven bowed again and then walked over to the car opening it.

"Sir the young woman over here is who we are looking for. I'm afraid she has been waiting for you to arrive sometime do try to be somewhat courteous to her... if you can manage it" said Sven.

Mimmi watched the driver as he went to open the door, she nervously bit down on her bottom lip and tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear. This was it hopefully he wouldn't think she was an ugly little girl and send her away as soon as he got a good look at her. She pushed her classes up on the bridge of her nose, and nervously shifted her feet around.

The car rolled up to the park, and Walker stepped out, Sara in his arms, looking around for the girl he was going to be stuck with for the next however many years, at least until he could pay his family back for Sara's surgery.
<Is something wrong Daddy?> Sara signed. Walker smiled at how she always signed Daddy out in letters instead of just using the word for father, it made him feel like he was actually her father. Having adopted Sara two years ago, he had learned she was a mute right away, and immediately went and learned ASL so he could understand her. He had treated her like she was his own daughter, even when she had been confined to a wheelchair due to his idiocy when he had been chasing the bounty that was her father. He nuzzled her gently in response.
"You can always tell when I'm nervous, can't you?" He said, her giggling as he nuzzled her head. "Now, we have a Mommy to find!" And so he looked around for her, with Sara acting as a second pair of eyes.

Mimmi blinked as he stepped out of the car holding a little girl in his arms, they way interacted with her was heart warming. She watched as the girl signed to him she concluded that she was either deaf or unable to speak. She smiled cause it appeared that this girl was his daughter, this was curious to Mimmi because he seemed almost too young to have a daughter. She shook her head and decided she should go and introduce herself, she walked up quietly and looked at the pair nervously "Umm... hello my name is Miriam Ronchester... but you can call me Mimmi" by the time the short sentence came out of her mouth Mimmi was blushing a bright crimson.

Sara grabbed Walker's shoulder and signed to him, and Walker turned around just in time to hear her introduction.
"A pleasure to meet you, Mimmi, I am Walker Nuhoa McMullin, unfortunately, and the lovely lady I'm holding is my adoptive daughter Sara Eve McMullin, and I pardon if I end up talking without an audible response, I'm talking to Sara, she's mute and cute! Sara?" Sara immediately began signing with her hands.
<It's nice meeting you, miss!> Sara signed, with Walker translating for her. <I hope you make my Daddy really happy!> It was now Walker's turn to blush, although not to the state Mimmi was in.

Adam Leroux

When he spoke with his mind, he said how he felt without fearing repercussions. Afterall, he knew how to handle himself, and fend for himself, and make sure he had the upper hand before he played his cards. He had said before, how he was also in the same position as her, how he aimed high, but ended up not being good enough, that there was more for him to do, so instead he took things in his own hands, went his own way, and no longer was the yes-man he was. Since then, his father recognised him taking independence, regarded him more highly and shown he could take initiative, giving him power in his company, enabling Adam to show him that he could handle the business. His position being more solid as a result, but now after all his building up, his solid ground was now shaky in regards to his future if this did not work well. Looking into her pearl-blue eyes, which looked ever so innocent, reflected in her character, for she was exactly that, innocent. Like him, she had been brought up in a wealthy family, having to do what her parents asked, tended to say yes and be submissive as he used to be. Now, here she was, a young bright innocent angel about to marry a devious cunning red demon. Well, he was probably over-exaggerating himself since he wasn't so bad, only to those that tended to annoy him, and so far, Akiko had not.

Seeing that she too travelled a similar road as he had when he was younger, then the least he could do was put her on the right track, and since she was to be his wife, then he'd help her grow up as he had. The first bit of advice that he had given her, was to speak her mind. Everything had a purpose. There was a reason behind everything. Just like there was a reason behind this arranged marriage, there was a reason, a purpose, of each of the senses they had which they should use. There was a clear use, but then there was sometimes a covert reasoning, a reason that remains hidden, that may or may not be revealed. Adam was a smart young man since growing up, and the way he saw things was, you use what you have, push forwards and make sure you had the upper hand. Compared to how he acts in work and how he was acting now, clearly shown a difference in Adam, which maybe was a hidden reason for bringing the two of them together. Maybe the two of them could help each other out, he would help Akiko be more stronger and bolder, whereas she would help him to relax a little, chill a little and soften him up.

Letting his mind rest and let his superstitions settle, he decided to focus on her for now while he was here. He had warned her that he spoke his mind, just so any words he says, she wouldn't be offended, since he spoke his mind more when he spoke with the workers when they just mucked him about, and slowed not only the work, but also his schedule he had planned, and now he wasn't there working. It was nice to be complimented for a change than being wound up like at work, as Akiko responded to how she felt about red heads, "Red heads are striking...but charming", which he completely agreed with. Not only did it describe red heads in general, but also his personality, since he can be charming as he was now, and being "striking" described him when his startling side comes out, which from time to time results in him striking people down. He prized himself on his looks, and he adored his red hair. Others dyed it and changed to blonde or brown or even wild blue as if they were merfolk, but getting rid of it was something he could never do.

Then a response that he was expecting by how she said she would follow his orders was then heard, "Also... I'm not used to speaking my mind... My parents liked it better when I was silent.... but if you want me too.... I'll try to speak my mind too.... If you want me to of course.". Since he was still holding her hand with one of his hand, his free hand stretched his palm out before half of his hand went into a clockwise rotation in order to tell her to carry on, as a smile remained on his face as she was now opening up, before speaking about his eyes, which made him smirk, "and your voice is ever so sweet, yet your parents prefer you silent? They must be out of their mind, but what I shall tell you, is that sometimes your parents may act in a certain way, waiting for you to take the next step first. I used to do everything my father told me, but then I used my initiative and done things my own way, and they worked out".

He smirked again, "Not exactly rebellious against authority, more to stepping up to show you have authority. Can't have you saying yes all the time. You wouldn't jump into the fire if I told you, would you?", applying simple logic, "So....do you have any siblings at all?", wondering if she was an heir, or if she had a pain in the rear younger sibling as he had.

Mimmi smiled and was surprised that such a young man had taken on such a big responsibility of taking on the parenting of a child; let alone a child with special needs.

"I'm glad to meet you both... < "And I'll do my best to make your daddy happy Sara"> Mimmi signed it was slow and a little awkward but she did her best. She had studied ASL on her own. She never really had a reason to use it but it was one of those things that had interested her. That was something she did allot as a child always having a full access to just about any books her parents would let her have, pick something she didn't know and learn it.

"But I think I've met you before Walker when we mere much younger though so you may not remember. I didn't until my parents said something to me about it" she sighed. Mimmi was happy to see that he was a good person, she didn't think her parents would set up something like this with someone who was cruel.

"Well... this whole arranged marriage thing is a little confusing to me, but I hope I meet up to your expectations?" she said.
