The two of them exited the lingerie store after a while and decided to sit and relax at a café, all according to Kazuya's plan. Although it was a café, they had a VIP lounge room, especially for cases like this (cases where important people were on a date).
As the two held hands and walked to the VIP room happily, suddenly, the door in front of them opened, making they come to a stop. A young mad exuding the same majestic aura as Kazuya came out of the room. The young man had the same black hair and blue eyes, except that he had a lightly different aura from Kazuya. He gave off more of a playful vibe. From inside the room, there were many voices talking cheerfully.
The two similar man locked eyes and the young man in front of them exclaimed, "Isn't this Kazuya?! What's this? As soon as you come back from the human world, you're on a date? *Whistle* Hey, pretty lady…" The man walked towards them and took Lilica's other hand that was free and was about to kiss it when suddenly, Kazuya pulled Lilica into his chest, making the man kiss air.
"Don't touch her." Kazuya said as he grabbed Lilica's other hand and rubbed it gently, as if to disinfect it with his touch.
"Hey, hey, hey! How can your treat your dearest cousin and friend like this? I'm not dirty!" The young man retorted.
"You're right. You're not dirty, but filthy." Kazuya said, his face indifferent.
Lilica let out a light chuckle. Lilica could tell that Kazuya was quite close with this guy since normally he wouldn't even joke about with others if the other person wasn't close to him. Seeing him bickering with others was entertaining in a way, as she had never saw this side of him before.
"Bro?! How could you… This fragile heart of mine hurts…" the young man acted hurt and put his hand up to his heart.
"Let's go." Kazuya decided to ignore his cousin as he walked passed him like nothing happened. That guy was intruding on their precious first date!

"Kazuya… You haven't seen him for a while, right? Why not go talk to him some more?" Lilica said, eager to see more of his interactions with his friends. She also wanted to know if she could dig up any dark history of her hubby.
"See! Even your girlfriend says so! Pay attention to me, man!" the man took the opportunity to make him stay.
"If wifey says so…" Kazuya said reluctantly as he walked back to the man's place.
"Pfft! You call your girlfriend 'wifey'?! This…this isn't The Kazuya I know!" the young man choked on air as he heard Kazuya utter the word 'wifey' as he looked at him disbelievingly.
"She's not my girlfriend. She my fiancée, meaning she's my wife. So, it isn't strange to call her 'wifey'" Kazuya corrected him.
"W-wait… What? You're engaged? When? How come I don't know about it?" the young man said as he turned his head to ask the people in his room, "Did any of you know Kazuya's engaged already?"
The whole room looked at the young man with their eyes full of doubt. One of the guys in the room said, "You're talking about Kazuya? Like That Kazuya? Pfft! There's no way such a cold guy is engaged! Much less even have a girlfriend! Even when such a beautiful woman like Lacey courted him for so many years, he still didn't even glance at her!"
A beautiful woman with long black hair and crimson eyes who sitting opposite that man, probably Lacey, glared at the man angrily and said threateningly, "Ron! Shut up! I told you to never bring that up again!"
"Oh! I forgot! Sorry!" the man named Ron apologized playfully, clearing not sorry at all.
Kazuya's cousin turned his head back to look at Lilica and Kazuya who were flirting while waiting for the man to finish his confirmation.
"Bloody hell! Is the sky going to collapse?! You even know how to flirt in public?! This is unbelievable!" the man was even more shocked at this side of Kazuya he ever knew existed.
"As I thought let's go." Kazuya said, starting to feel annoyed at his cousin.
"You're not going to listen to me anymore?" Lilica asked while acting sulky. She valued things like blood relations, as she still felt regretful that she hadn't talk it out with her parents ever since she ran away from them. She had resolved herself during the trip here that she would properly talk to her parents and truly value their feelings this time.
"Fine… Wifey is always right…" Kazuya replied reluctantly as he turned to look at his cousin annoyingly.
