2 years later: Third person's POV

Everyone is on summer vacation, each have different plans but they all dropped down on the same thing - swimming.

It's also Mizuka and Hayato's 10th anniversary, and both decided to celebrate with their friends.

"Hayato, Mizuka is here!" One of his friends said, while he tilted his head to see, his girlfriend wearing a one-piece swimsuit.

"Does it look okay to you?" Mizuka asked Hayato, who's stunned. "It's a yes" Hayato's friends teased while looking at him.

"You look beautiful, oneechan!" Misaki said, she went with her sister because she insisted to go to America by herself. "Thank you, princess" Mizuka playfully said.

"Mizuka, we'll play beach volleyball, wanna come?" Ryuuichi asked, "Hmm no, I have to look over Misaki and prepare us some food" Mizuka said.

"Oh come on, let's go!" Hayato's friend said, "She said no" Both Hayato and Misaki said.

"Geez, y'all so overprotective" He said that made Mizuka laugh.

"I'll join later" Mizuka finally gave in.

After almost 50 minutes passed, Mizuka is now done preparing their food. After telling Yagi and Nezu what to do, she went to her friends who are playing by the shore.

"What's the score?" She asked and they answered, "six for the girls, and nine for the boys".

"Count me in" Mizuka took off the towel covering her waist to the knees, they looked at her as if they saw a hot goddess in a swimsuit.

"What?" She asked, "Nothing, you just- you're stunning" Her friends stuttered, "Hmm thanks!" Mizuka smiled.

"Come on" The ball was passed to Mizuka so she can start the game.

"My sister is going to crush all of you!" Misaki laughed, "We will beat her though" One friend said, "Okay stop, let's finish the game first" Inomata said,

"Take it!" Mizuka served with a hard hit.

After an hour:
"That's unfair!" The girls won, "We almost got that" Hayato's friends said, "Good game!" Mizuka fist-bumped Hayato, "What did you cook?" He asked, "Some Tonkatsu, Miso Soup and Soba Noodles" Mizuka said.

"You were good earlier" Hayato complimented, "Were? Are you mocking me?" Mizuka is left in disbelief, "We WERE both aces of a baseball team" Mizuka said that made both of them laugh.

"Alright, you're right" Hayato said.

"Yo love-birds! Let's eat!" They all yelled at the two who shared a kiss.

They all went to the cottage and helped Yagi and Nezu to prep the foods on the table.

"Since it's Hayato and Mizuka's anniversary, we have a gift for the both of you" Yuki grabbed Misaki and they gave her a box. "Open it!" Misaki hurriedly wanted to see her sister's reaction.

They opened the box and it showed a couple ring, "Aww this is so cute!" Mizuka put it on her finger, "Here, I'll put it on you" Mizuka took Hayato's hand and wore the ring on his finger.

"Aren't I the one who need to do that?" Hayato said that made all of them laugh.

"Thank you everyone, this is so nice of you!" Mizuka thanked.

"We all wish you both the bestest" Inomata said, "But don't dare make Mizu cry, you know what will happen" She glared at Hayato.

"Oooh so feisty" Yagi said, pushing Ryuuichi closer to Inomata. "Alright enough, I'm hungry!" Yuki said, "Hope you all like it!" Mizuka gave everyone plates and they started to dig in.

Mizuka's POV

Everything is nice, my friends came to celebrate with us. They even gave us a gift.

"Mizu, why aren't you eating?" Hayato noticed my empty plate, "I'm still full, remember I-"

"I won't buy it, you're waiting for the dessert don't you?" He really knows me. "Yes" I embarrassingly said.

"Can I have it though?" I asked, he nodded and I immediately went to get me some ice cream. "Oneechan, I want one ice pop" Misaki said, "Here" I got her favourite, grape flavoured.

I wonder where's Mary right now. Hope she's not stressing much.

"Hey" Hayato tapped me, "Hmm?" I looked at him, "You seem to think about something very deep" He said, "No, I'm just wondering what my mother is doing, you know, she filed a divorce and-"

"Stop worrying, oneechan" Misaki interfere, "Mom is doing fine, she said" Misaki smiled at me, "She texted you?" I asked and she nodded.

Couple hours of swimming, we all ended up to the mall for some refreshment.

"Do you want something?" I asked, "Nothing" He answered, I know you want something. "Well, wanna get some Tamagoyaki?" He didn't answered so I dragged him to a restaurant.

I ordered one plate because Misaki also wanted it, apparently, she's like an eating monster.

"Can you watch over Misaki? I have to get this phone call" I said, "Sure" Hayato took Misaki's chair beside his.

"Hello, this is Kamiyama Mizuka from Kamiyama Co. speaking" I answered the call, "Ms. Mizuka, finally I got to reach you!" A woman from the other line said, "Is there something wrong?" I asked.

"The board members are asking for your return, there is an emergency situation" Emily said. "Can you please say what's happening?" I can hear chaos occurring on the background.

"Give me that!" I heard Mrs. Edison, "Hello Mizuka, this is Mrs. Edison. I'm sorry to bring bad news but the company is in its fall, if this continues, we'll go bankrupt!" She said, of course, this girl isn't impressed.

"I'm sorry Mrs. Edison, bankruptcy? I handled the company for the past 2 years and now you're saying we're going bankrupt? Is there something you need to explain?"

I'm assured that I invested enough and paid my clients the amount they deserve.

"What we want you to do is to come back here and fix it" She's kidding, "Well then, Mrs. Edison. Once I get back to America, I'll make sure the statements you've said are true and if not, you will face consequences"

I ended the phone angrily. Hayato seemed to noticed it, "You okay?" He asked, "The company, it's just- they need me there again" I said, not wanting to make my boyfriend think I'll never go back.

I have to solve this problem as fast as I can.
