Nadia stared at her ceiling, thoughts racing in her mind refusing her sleep. Her therapy sessions opened new doors for her, new ideas and thoughts. What she did to Karma and Gakushū

Was it wrong? Everyone else seems to think so.

Nanami's painful slaps on her that night while yelling at how she was a horrible human being was a giant wake up call to her. But Nadia chose to close off her ears and ignore the bubble of guilt rising in her chest.

But after taking just a few therapy sessions, having someone listen to her patiently. Nadia began to think that, maybe everyone else was right, maybe she really was in the wrong, maybe the reason no one really liked her was because of her over all terrible personality.

She always used her mother's abuse as an excuse to do horrible deeds. But she was always well aware of what she was doing, everything was of her own will.

Nadia bit her lip hard, and sat up from her bed. Reaching for her phone she called her father.

Tomorrow was their last day here before flying to America.

Nadia will have no choice but to go back home.

Taking a deep breath, she gathered her confidence.

"Sweetheart?" Her dad's voice from the other line was a relief for her. He was like her safe haven.

"Dad, you should leave mom" she said. "She's a bad person, she abuses me, manipulates you, and she fights you a lot" shaking, the girl continued on. "You two do nothing but scream at each other everyday, plates always fly into the air and break into pieces. She hits you and you cower down"

"When she's mad, we have to be quiet, we chose the right words. She doesn't care about our happiness, only about herself. She strings me around like a puppet! I'm just a doll for her! And You do NOTHING! DIVORCE HER DAD! it's HER or ME"

For a while, the line was quiet. And then

"Honey I divorced your mother two days ago"

"What?" Nadia couldn't believe it.

"She's been cheating on me for years, fucking any man who comes her way, and I'm tired. Nadia, I divorced her and have taken full custody for you, expect that as soon as you come home you'll be living with me and we'll forget about that woman"

"But, what about my....engagement"

She heard her father laugh coldly. "Screw that! You're young, you and Akabane-kun don't deserve to be forced into a loveless marriege. You're only children! You shouldn't have to be mixed into the problems of us adults. Say goodbye to Karma because you never have to see that delinquent again"

Nadia hung up, and laid in bed in disbelief.

Her dad divorced that monster, she gets to live with him, and her engagement with Karma is over now.

For the first time in years, she felt at peace. 

(Author: this is the last of Nadia's arc, I've finished her purpose, her backstory is known, and she's now free from her mother's clutches because her father finally stood up for them. The only thing we need to worry now is for Karma and Gakushū)

Day 30

Today is their last day in Japan. They have all packed everything they needed and have booked a 9 am flight for  tomorrow.

Karma was in turmoil. What happened last night with Gakushū made him confused.

Did he really want to leave?

"Stupid Asano" Karma muttered, kicking a can. "Stupid Asano for making me feel this way, stupid strawberry blonde confusing me!" His anger had subsided, and his sadness had wallowed. He's become rather calm now.

That doesn't mean the lingering fear of pain and betrayal had completely left his mind. He was a hypocrite, he was angry at Gakushū for being a coward and not telling him the truth about their relationship.

When he himself is a coward, scared to get hurt.

"I'm pathetic when it comes to him" Karma chuckled.

"Pathetic? Maybe. An idiot? Definitely" came a female voice. Karma looked up and saw Nanami leaning against the wall opposite him. She was wearing a black skirt and grey stockings, a white low cut blouse and black short sleeves jacket.

"Gakushū's okay, if you're wondering" Nanami sighed.

"I, I wasn't-"

"But he's not entirely okay either" Nanami continued. "My brother misses you too much, I caught him debating with himself. The topic is about you"

"Really?"

Nanami smirked at the eagerness in Karma's voice. Awwwe, he still cared.

"I hear you're leaving brat" Nanami turned serious. Karma simply nodded. Nanami walked up to Karma.

SLAP!

"OWE! what the hell?!" Karma held his stinging cheek. Nanami slapped him! For what?!

"Do you think running away will make things easier for you brat?! News flash! Relationships are NEVER easy! You fight, you cry, you scream, you make mistakes, you forgive! You try again! My brother makes one mistake and suddenly you decide he's not worth forgiving and you want to leave him forever?!" Nanami raised a shaking fist. "You brats are so fucking naive , no relationship is perfect!"

Karma just stood there, stupidly, mouth opening and closing like a fish.

"I have held my tongue for far too long. Clearly you two have no idea what you're doing, for a bunch of geniuses you're both MORONS! ARGH! JUST-SO ANNOYING--DAMN TEENAGERS!"

Karma watched in confusion as the Asano paced back and forth infront of him, pulling hard on her hair. The she halted, and walked up to Karma again.

Afraid of being slapped again, Karma braced himself.

The red head almost had a heart attack when Nanami slammed her palm beside his head. "Did she just Kabedon me?" Karma thought. Now that he has a close up of Nanami's face, he finally noticed the similarities of Gakushū and Nanami. She had the same face shape of Gakushū, lips just as pink, the same shape of nose

They also both had bags under their eyes. But there was one thing Nanami has nothing on Gakushū. Their eye color. Gakushū's eyes were a deep, beautiful amethyst color. Meanwhile Nanami's eyes were a lighter shade and, in Karma's opinion, not at all as attractive as Gakushū's.

"Do you really want to leave brat?" Nanami growled. "You're friends are here, you grew up here, you're main source of happiness? All here. Think carefully, you might just be making a big mistake"

And with that Nanami left him alone.

Suddenly, his phone rang. When he answered, his mother's voice was heard.

"Sweetheart there has been a change in our flight schedule, we won't be able to fly tomorrow and there will not be any available flights for days"

Karma felt strong relief.

"We'll have to fly today Karma"
