Ok guys, here's part 2! I'm so tired from work and school and I wish you a happy holidays! I might update once before Christmas but if not I apologize in advance but I'll definitely get 2 out by the new year!
(Megumi Pov)
How did I become who I am now? It seems like only a week ago I was with my mom in my hometown in Tohoku Region. Now, I'm the tenth seat in the Totsuki Elite Ten and I've traveled the world to witness different flavors and cuisines.
I look down at my Omamori. It reads "Academic Success." Even though it's only been a day since I returned to Tokyo from my travels, I can't help but miss my mother. I guess it can't be helped, since she's dead. Yet to my friends and school, she's alive and well, but they can never know she died.

"Shinomiya-Sensei, can't this trip get any better," Megumi sighed.
"Tadokoro-chan, the food is what makes you happy. The location, on the other hand, is relative," he replied. "...but, the sunset is beautiful to see when we're in Lake Hillier." The water glistened as he said that. We gazed at the sunset in silence, but our peaceful silence got interrupted.
*buzz buzz*
I turn to the table to check my phone
*buzz buzz* *Incoming call from Ayato-kun*
Ayato Tachibana is one of my friends from Tohoku. Thanks to him, I learned how to select and prepare fish for the best dish possible. I wonder why Ayato-kun decided to call me? I thought. Hesitantly, I clicked the button to accept the call.
"Hi Ayato-kun."
"..........." No response.
"Ayato-kun did I miss someone's birthday again? Ayato-kun?" I asked. All of a sudden, a wave of anxiety came over me as I said with a bit of frustration in my voice "Ayato Tachibana tell me what happened."
"Megumi.........I..I'm so sorry......" He spoke in a soft voice.
With tears in my eyes, my voice began to choke up. "A.....Ayato-kun why are y......you apologizing?"
"It's your mom. She was found in..." The rest of his voice muted as I knew what he was going to say next. My mom is dead.
My legs gave out and I fell onto my knees, my phone landing on the rocky sand. I notice Shinomiya-Sensei trying to talk to me, but I can't hear anything he's saying. Ayato's words keep repeating in my head.
It's your mom......It's your mom....... It's your mom

Remember, don't let anybody know. I would just be a burden, like I was during the Team Shokugeki and with other competitions. Why am I like this?
