Let's see. I am still confused about everything. I am tired and sleepy, but excited, of course. I finally get to see him again. But still...
I tried to recall what my dad said to me yesterday which is a little bit shocking for me.
-------Yesterday-------
Dad: "I need to talk to you, Kurumi".
Me: "What is it dad? I'm sorry but I'm pretty busy."
I said while I was cleaning up my workspace after a tiring day and if I say my 'workspace', I mean my kitchen. My beautiful and precious kitchen.
"It'll be quick. I want you to return to Japan. I already enrolled you in Totsuki".
Okay. I was speechless. It took me a minute to process what he just said.
"W-w-wait dad, w-why now? I thought you don't want me to study there anymore? a-a-an--" I fumbled and dropped my knives. I picked them up and placed them in the case, still fumbling.
"Calm down child, I have my reasons. I just want you there tomorrow and Senzaemon will fill you in the details."
"Dad, what about my career here in America? I am already accustomed here." I lied. I hate it here.., except for my kitchen, and I am dying to go back there again.
"Don't you want to see him again?"
My heart skipped a beat.
" Your Shokugeki with him had become a legend but only the Director and Elite Ten knows. It was a disappointment for him that he lose to you."
".."
"Well, it was your fault in the first place, Dad." I murmured."It was still an unusual Shokugeki, Kurumi. You won but the condition was pretty confusing for them...And you should really stop with your mumblings and murmurs, It'll become a habit."
I bit my lip and frown. I didn't want any of it..
the past..
the Shokugeki..
and mostly, our separation..
But I nod at his last remark, not promising anything."I'll leave you to pack, child. Do not worry. Eveything is in your favor." .
I manage to murmur "Thanks Dad" before he leaved the room. I was a little bit chagrined by the fact that everything might have changed but ecstastic because I get to see him again. For the first time in months, I am finally smiling genuinely.

I'm currently in my car, waiting as the clock ticks by.
5 more minutes4 minutes...
3 minutes...
Right then, I saw the wide perimeter of the school. My heart is pounding loudly, I can't contain my happiness anymore.
"Peter, drop me first at Tsukasa's, please."
"Yes, ma'am. I would like to inform you that you are to meet with the director in 1 hour."
"Yes, I understand"
We drove a little bit further until I am in front of his apartment. I am sure he'll be here.
My heart won't slow down. I am getting nervous and I can't shake the feeling that something is wrong.
I got out of the car and went towards the building carrying nothing but my phone. I think I will surprise him. It'll be fun.
*thump thump thump*
My heart really won't calm down.
Something's wrong.
But.
I am already in front of his door.
*thump thump thump*
I opened it and said, " I am back Eishi-cchi! I've misse-"
Just like that, I was shocked... And horrified. I was speechless.
"eh?"
Tears are threatening to pool in my eyes.
"I-I- I am sorry!" I shouted then I closed the door and I ran away not caring about their reactions. I basically don't know where I am going.
What did I just saw? Haha!. I am laughing....yes I am laughing.. but as the same time crying.
Today sucks.
He betrayed me.And I am such an idiot for believing that everything is still the same.
