Mio officially enrolled in Jujutsu High in Tokyo, with Megumi. They were both under Gojo's command. His students. Mio didn't mind, but it feels awkward for her. The two are silently engaged. It becomes official in 2 weeks. 

Mio could not say anything even though she wants to. She lose the people she trust the most. Her father, her mother. Everyone can go and burn in hell, cause she don't care anymore. Right now, Mio is sitting on a chair. She and Megumi is having dinner.

Gojo promised them for some nice and warm hotpot today. She'll kill him if he forget. Mio glance at clock on the wall. It's around 6 in the evening. It's still early, but it's quite late for her. Mio usually stop eating at 6, to maintain her body. She once got mocked by her own family. They call her a fat ass chick.

Though, it's all in the past. Nothing good comes out reminisce the bad past. Mio hate it. That comment, the rude one always get inside her head no matter how hard she wants to forget it. Mio tap the table a few times. It's getting into Megumi's nerve, as it's noisy and interrupt him reading some non fiction e-book in his phone.

"Could you please stop tapping the table? It's making me crazy." Megumi finally admit. Mio rolls her eyes, but she stop. She hates to argue with Megumi. He's the only friend she had. Well, yeah. Mio then take out her phone, before she look at the previous message.

Aki kept calling her, messaging her like there's no tomorrow. Mio told him that they need to break up because of her family matter, but Aki didn't give up. He insist saying that he loves her so much, that it's hard to break out without solid reason.

Mio loves Aki dearly. His blue eyes never fail to calm her, especially after Mio got rough up after fighting curses. Mio knew that Aki is not a sorcerer, but he's hiding something from her. She's sure of that. His long, medium black hair are so soft, making Mio loves to caress that hair more than hers.

Yet, he always wore his hair in topknot style. He's handsome, can cook and do household chores. He's one of the perfect man she could even imagine, yet, her family would rather give her to Gojo instead? Wasn't that bullshit?

"Hey, are you okay? You're daydreaming." Megumi calls her out. Mio look at Megumi. She blinks a few times, before put on a smile. Mio nod, before let out a sigh.

"Yeah, I am. Just, some problem with my boyfriend." She stated. Problem with Aki? Duh, she is the problem. Sasaki clan, Gojo clan, each clan are stupid!

"Oh, the one you met before?" Megumi asked. Mio nod. She smile.

"Yeah..."

"He's handsome." Megumi commented. Mio give Megumi a disgust expression, before he rolls his eyes.

He knows what she meant. Megumi take a deep breath, before exhale. Loud.

"I'm not a gay! I'm just stating a fact. You and him looks good together." He said. Mio smile upon hearing that.

"Oh, really? Thanks for the comment, Fushiguro. I appreciate it." Mio feels happy when she heard that. She know that Aki is the one for her, not Gojo.

"Yeah. You should hear him out, Sasaki. Don't leave a good man hanging." Megumi give her a piece of advice. It sounds so boring, but he's right. Mio should be brave and tell the truth to Aki. Maybe, he will understand about all this sorcerer shits.

Just on the right time, her phone ring. Mio smile when she see Aki's name on the caller ID. She excuse herself to Megumi. Megumi simply nod, before he continue to read his e-book. Mio exit the small pantry, before she take the call. She didn't forget to close the door first.

"Hi... Aki." God, Mio don't know how to start this conversation anymore. She feel bad. 

"Mio? Oh, goodness! I'm trying to call you, but you didn't pick up. Mio, please. Tell me. What's with this break up?" His voice sounds sad, that's what Mio could tell. Mio take a deep breath. She's tired.

"Aki, are you free tomorrow?" She asks. Mio is waiting for the answer.

"I-"

"I'll tell you everything if we meet. It would be easier to explain if we meet. Please, Aki. I want to see you." Mio sniffs. She could cry. Aki Hayakawa is the kindest man she ever met. 

"Alright, Mio. I'll apply for unpaid leave tomorrow. Let's meet in my place, okay? I'll pick you up." He sounds sad, but Mio appreciate his kindness to not yelling at her.

Most of men would go crazy if their girfriends acting like this. But for Aki, he's not. He remained calm, even though he doesn't know the reason. Mio nod while giving him an agree voice.

"I... Love you, Aki." Alright, Mio could not contain her tears anymore. She swear that she could hear Aki cries to. Well, not really crying, but he's trying his best to contain himself.

"I love you too, Mio. Take care, my one and only." He said. Mio frown. She nod, holding and contain her cries, so that she would not make louder voice than she should.

Megumi might already heard her crying, but he might let it be. He didn't want to interrupt her moments with Aki. After a minute, Mio hung up the call. She slowly lower her body, before she ended up sitting on the front door.

Mio let it all out. How, how she could explain all of this curse and sorcerer to Aki? Would he trust her? Would he left her for good? Would he snap at her? 

Mio cover her crying face by burying her face at her knees. She and Aki met around 2 years ago, when she visit Akira's grave. He offered her his handkerchief to wipe her tears. Mio appreciate his kindness towards her, before the two exchange contact and dating.

She didn't know much about what kind of work Aki did, but seeing him with a sword, he might work for the government or something. For sure, Aki is not a sorcerer or curse user. Mio could have feel his curse energy, but she didn't. Aki might has his own reasoning to not telling her, and she respect that.

"What are you doing, Sasaki?" A cold tone makes the red hair lift her head.
