shaolinaGod, I hate Kurumi so much! She almost makes me like Bree.
We start chapter 2 with with Kurumi saying over and over “This must be a dream” as she goes down the airplane stairs. Because you know, being kidnapped by a violent douche you don’t know is the stuff of dreams. I’m sure Disney is working on a movie about it right about now.
Asshat tells her this is no dream and she just can’t believe it so he takes her in his arms and jumps 50 steps down. She takes this as a sign this is a dream and is disappointed. He laughs it off and says that he will show her his dream, since this is a dream. Can we stop this dream talk already?!
She gets all blushy over him, because what woman can resist a pretty face? He proceeds to order his men to take them home and watch over her or they will die. Yes, charming man indeed. Wonder where I can get one just like him.
Kurimi is distracted by the shiny lights of the city to give a though on her situation. Instead of being upset she thinks that this is just awesome (man, why don’t I get kidnapped?) and thanks him. Then this happens:
No, he’s not raping her. Instead he’s being a controlling bastard:
Because, you know, you can’t show her the dress and ask her to wear it, or take her shopping for one. No, you just pull her clothes without permission and order her to wear a dress she might not like. But hey, he hasn’t given a single thought to her will once, why change the dynamic?
She goes on with the cinderella transformation and he’s pleased with her looks and takes her to his party. Everyone is looking at her, especially the woman who just envy her, and Kurumi is super exited. There Asshat makes an announcement:
Goddamit woman! He dragged you away from home, forced you into a situation without considering your feelings and declared you “his woman” the same way I claim ownership of my Xbox360. All of this while your sick mother is at home wondering where you are. This is not the moment to swoon! This is the moment to figure out how to run away.
She instead goes around eating and drinking with Asshat. She then gives a one panel thought for her family before pushing the thought away, because they don’t matter. Instead we focus on the beautiful women at the party who drag her to beat her up for daring to be with Asshat. The hussy!
They tell her how dangerous Asshat is and she can’t believe it. She runs away thinking he couldn’t hurt a fly and over hears him talking about how he has to kill somebody. This (gasp) shocks Kurumi, because so far he seemed like such a sweetie.
She gets half an idea by telling him she wants to go home. I say half an idea because running away from this guy is the right choice. The wrong choice is telling him about it because this happens:
And so this chapter ends on that creepy note. Yet I’m supposed to cheer for this couple? I can deal and like dark stories, what I can’t deal is with idiots.

Fanfic.
