That day still haunts her ten years later as she studies with a single goal in mind: to get into an elite university and achieve independence from her father once and for all.

She tries to lose Kijima, but he just can't take a hint...and as her mind runs wild with dirty thoughts, she realizes her father has totally influenced her!
