"Are you alright, master!?"

Toko was alarmed to see the tears streaming down his master's cheeks and his puffy red eyes. Shu looked at the maid and tried to smile. But when he did, more tears streamed down his face.

"Master Shu...here." Toko gave him his unused spare handkerchief, which Shu gladly took and sniffed in. Toko was about to sit on the bed with him when he remembered his place in the mafia. But Shu pulled the hem of the bluenette's skirt and made him sit down on the bed.

"Master...-"

"Call me Shu." The voice was commanding, so Toko couldn't help but do what he was asked.

"S-Shu..."

"..." And the albino leaned his head on the maid's shoulder. Toko blushed.

"About what I did to you back then." Shu said suddenly. Toko's face suddenly turned from a light pink blush to a tomato. He stuttered over his words.

"I-I-"

Shu pulled him in for a hug. He smiled on the bluenette's comforting shoulder, "I'm just fine. But are you?"

Toko got startled by the question, "H-huh?"

Shu's face turned serious as he brought his shoulder back up, "The way everyone treats you here...It's just too cruel. I mean, not even acknowledging you, or cursing what you do for them, or even harming you physically. I don't want you getting hurt-"

"Everything's fine with me too!" Toko said, planting a bright fake smile, but Shu, already stressed and tired, believed it. He excused the bluenette and decided to lay in for today.

Toko walked back to the maid's room, thinking about all that happened. He didn't want to spill it to the others, knowing that it would be Shu's private things. He opened the maid's room and gasped.

Everyone was sitting huddled together and there were large charts all around the room. They all were navigations around the whole mafia building. Raika grinned proudly when she saw Toko.

"We are going to be free!" She chirped happily. Toko's mind went irresponsive for a second, "Wai-Huh?"

"Sasha found an opening which we could actually use as an escape route." Kit explained, "It's at the east side of the basement, and it's an uneven round in shape. The opening lives behind the dusty cupboard in the basement, and it's large enough for two small people to go through it. It would lead us to the forest behind the building, but if we cross the forest north, we might be able to reach the city."

Toko blinked. Oh. Then that's great.

"Ok." He said blankly. Sasha frowned at the neutral tone, but Ichika waved it off by saying, "He looks blank, so he probably might be shocked."

They all planned for the rest of the night, and Toko even started to get more excited as he got his senses back. They made a huge plan to escape that night, but what they didn't know was when to put it in action.

"Maybe next week?"

"Or next month?"

"Or next year?"

"Are you out of your mind!?"

"Whoop- sorry Wakiya."

"Yeah yeah ok." the blonde said and crossed his arms.

"Maybe tomorrow?" Toko suggested timidly, waiting for Wakiya to yell at him for being senseless, but all he got was silence.

"You know, that seems like a good idea..." Gumita murmured quietly. Everyone agreed to the plan. Toko was about to smile, but then Shu's face flashed in his mind, and suddenly he didn't want to leave. But he didn't voice it. No, he wanted to meet his family. What was more important, his family or one crazy perverted mafia heir? But then the image of crying Shu came back to him, and Toko realised that the albino, just like him, was human, no matter how bloodthirsty. But he pushed at all away and went for his sleep. Kit slept beside him.

"Excited for tomorrow?" He whispered. Toko nodded. He was finally about to be free from this hell but...

...He didn't want to lose Shu.

Be safe and happy. Hope you enjoyed this chapter.

Fin.
