Kinzaki Kirihara had sent Akira 'Aleph' Serizawa the location where they should meet, which was the building of Kirihara Corporation, which was outside Nagashima. But because the building was quite large and conspicuous, even people like Aleph could spot it from a few kilometers away. The heiress was waiting for her guest in her father's office. Her father had allowed her to use it for a day, and she was reading a book while waiting. Meanwhile, her personal butler, Subaru Suzuhara was seen standing near the entrance of the building, waiting for the person in question (Aleph) to show himself so she could guide him into the building. |

A taxi drove up to the entrance of the Kirihara Corporation building and slowed down before coming to a complete halt. The rear door opened and out stepped a brown, spiky-haired boy wearing a black buttoned shirt and black pants with a white spiderweb pattern printed on the outfit. He also wore a red scarf along with the entire outfit. Akira "Aleph" Serizawa looked at the Kirihara Corporation building with wonder and awe. He knew that Kinzaki was rich, but just how rich she was was the question. Since taxis were somewhat expensive and ineffective, Aleph had to gather up quite a lot of yens just to come all the way here. He even resorted to taking money out of the Serizawas' family money jar, which they only used for "emergencies". Implying they even needed a money jar to begin with. Aleph walked towards the entrance of the building. He read Kinzaki's PM just yesterday and already he was meeting the heiress in her father's corporation. Aleph couldn't help but somewhat feel envy for Kinzaki. Sure, everyone always feels envy for rich people. But it wasn't just money that Aleph envied Kinzaki about. He envied her because she was the only rich person who was actually nice and decent about it. Everyone probably liked her. Just like how everyone liked Kakeru. Aleph envied pretty much everyone who had social skills and was capable of maintaining friendships. And at the same time, it made Aleph depressed all the while. Aleph's mood did lighten up somewhat when he came along the entrance where Subaru was standing. Aleph put on a light smile. "Afternoon, Subaru-san." Aleph said, bowing. "I guess Kinzaki's in there....somewhere?" Hopefully, Subaru would guide Aleph to her, seeing as how the building looked significantly large and imposing. |

And here he was, finally showing himself, in a rather flashy getup, no less. Subaru acknowledged Aleph's presence, giving him a slight bow before she spoke, "Greetings, Serizawa-san. I am tasked to guide you into the building..." then, she turned around before she walked into the building. "Follow me. Kinzaki Ojou-sama has been expecting you," the butler said, telling the boy to follow her inside. |

Aleph nodded when Subaru greeted him. He seemed rather polite, like Kinzaki. And granted, black and white did somewhat stand out when put together. But Aleph's outfit had a spiderweb pattern for a reason. Aleph felt like wearing the outfit because it more or less symbolized how he was utterly trapped in his own problems and such with absolutely no way out. And everything he tried to do to solve those problems, he always failed. "Yes. She is, it seems." Aleph agreed as he began to follow Subaru into the building. |

So, Subaru was silent as she led Aleph into the building. The butler didn't bother explaining things to Aleph about the corporation as she went towards the direction of the office, with Aleph in tow. After walking down several hallways and corridors, they finally arrived in front of the office. "Here we are," Subaru said, opening the door, revealing Kinzaki who was reading something while waiting for the guest, sitting on her seat. "Welcome, Serizawa-san..." Kinzaki said, welcoming the boy. |

Aleph followed Subaru into the building and towards the office. Aleph's notions were correct. The building was considerably large, inside and out. Hopefully, he wouldn't get lost on the way out afterwards, right? Anyways, Aleph and Subaru finally arrived to the office where Kinzaki was reading something. Probably a magazine or newspaper or something of that nature. Aleph walked into the office calmly and bowed to Kinzaki. "Hello, Kinzaki-san." Aleph said, then he went to take his seat. "Umm...you did want to talk with me about something, right?" |

Kinzaki smiled as Aleph took his seat. "Yes, I want to talk to you about something," the heiress said. "But first, would you like some tea?" she asked. Then, a few maids came, bringing cookies and tea for them. Subaru was already standing beside the heiress, and she helped to pour the tea for her, while one of the maids poured the tea for Aleph. "Can't start a discussion without a cup of Earl Grey, can we?" Kinzaki said, taking a sip of her tea. So classy. |

Aleph smiled at Kinzaki. Then, some maids came in and brought tea and cookies. Cookies with tea. That's...a rather peculiar combination. Aleph would've preferred something more subdued in terms of fanciness, like coffee. But Aleph figured it was no use complaining now. "Thank you." Aleph said to the maids as they poured their tea. Aleph was also right about Kinzaki having maids. So, that probably meant she had chefs as well. All that was left was a nanny. Aleph took a small sip of his tea. Having never drank tea before, the substance tasted rather foreign to the boy. "So, um." Aleph said. "What was it that you wanted to talk about?" |

"What do I want to talk about? Well..." Kinzaki started, setting down the cup of tea on the saucer. "I believe that you already know about the opinions of the members of our community regarding your actions these past few days..." she said. She gave a signal to Subaru, and the butler nodded, going to take a laptop, putting it on the desk and switching it on. "It seems that you're rather infamous in Bedlam, with all these outrageous posts and something else," Kinzaki said, logging into Bedlam, looking through the posts in the forum. "Especially about your effort in trying to recruit some of other Persona-users to join your group," she said, smiling sweetly to Aleph. "But, don't worry. I will not condemn you for anything that happened, because I have something else in my mind..." She took out a file from the drawer before she looked at Aleph. "I want to offer you a chance of redemption, Serizawa-san. In this way, you can redeem yourself and rebuild your reputation back," she said, putting the file on the desk. "But in exchange, I want you to work with me, or rather, be my servant." "That's a bad way to say it, Ojou-sama..." Subaru interjected. "Oh? Right, well... I want you to be one of my employees, someone who works under me," Kinzaki said, looking at Aleph. "And for that, we will teach you on how to make yourself a capable leader and a better person in the eyes others. It's a win-win situation, right?" she ended that with a smile. |

Aleph set the cup down as Kinzaki spoke. His expression started to sink into somewhat a frown. The Wolf Mask Incident, his angry posts on Nutjob Detail, his catastrophic failure at attempting to make friends with a newcomer. And possibly a few other things. Surprisingly, Kinzaki wasn't blaming Aleph for any of that. Oh, Thank GOD. Pissing off somebody is one story, but pissing off somebody who is RICH is practically social suicide. In fucking deed. Kinzaki also explained the point of the conversation. An offer to work with her and be her servant. Or employee or whatever. Employee, servant, man nanny. Does it really make a difference? We'll still be working under you and your super rich daddy regardless. Aleph looked at the file on the desk. An offer to work for Kinzaki. Whatever was in the file probably explained everything that implied with working for the heiress. Aleph felt unsure about this. "Well..." Aleph said. "I do want to be a leader and a better person and all that." Yes, you do. Plus there's probably money involved so you can't resist THAT. No, Aleph could not. "Yes. It will definitely be a win-win. I'd be more than happy to work for you, Kinzaki-san." Aleph added with a smile. |
