Chapter 5 - My Decision was Made!
Misaki's POV
I must choose one from this two.
“Mum, what do you think of this?” I handed my mom a piece of flat, colourful paper that read "Invitation to Tokyo University" that the three men left me yesterday. “Shall I go?” I asked.
Mum took the paper and read it. “Hmm… it’s a really good opportunity, this is your dream, right? You want to go since you were a child, and finally the chance comes,” She replied, reciting the history carved in her mind.
This is my dream since I was just a child.
But...
"I think you should accept this, "she continued.
She wanted me to accept it, but I can't just accept and leave him, my dear Usui.
"But," suddenly I thought of something. "Mom, if I let you choose... If it was you, you want to choose to be with your loved one or fulfill your dream?" I asked.
She answered me without hesitating, "If it was me, I will choose to fulfill my dreams first..." she said as her voiced slowed down.
"Mum, what is your dream when you were young?" I asked.
Mum thought for a while, thought back about her teenage years.
"I... I want to further my studies to a higher education like you too, but," she smile faded.
"But what, Mom?" I continued my question - I wanted to know why she didn't fulfill her dream.
She smiled. "But because of my family state, I can't. You’re lucky, Misaki."
I am lucky?
I am lucky? I can't believe what Mom has just said. She said I am lucky? I don't think so; I think I am the most unlucky girl in the world...
"Misaki, if I am you, I will accept it," she said. She wanted me to accept the University's invitation. "But it depends on you to accept it or not, it's your choice," she continued and out of my room.
I think I should go; after all it's a really great opportunity.
I should tell Usui about this.
I thought and grabbed my cell phone that was on the small table besides my bed.
I dialed his number.
But when it was connected, he pressed the red button - turned off the call.
I tried again.
Still the same.
I didn't want to give up now, so I tried again.
But it was still the same - he turned off the call.
Just when I decided to give up, a message came in.
It was written Usui as the sender's name - he messaged me.
"Misa-chan, stop calling me, I will not answer it no matter what."
That was what he messaged me.
He didn't want to hear my voice!
Suddenly I thought of something - if he didn't want to hear my voice, then I’ll just message him, then...
I quickly wrote down what I want to say to him on the text message and send to him.
"Usui, I wrote this to ask you. You think I should accept the Tokyo University's invitation or just ignore it...?
PS, I am so sorry Usui for that..."
I sent and few minutes later, a message came in again, and I knew it was Usui.
"Whatever. Make your own decision, but I am gonna tell you, don't regret if you ignored that invitation."
That was what he said.
He told me don't regret if I ignored that invitation?
So...
Erm...
That means...
I thought of something again.
He was still mad at me so he didn't want to answer that question, but he already answered it.
He tell me don't regret if I ignored that invitation, that means he wanted me to accept it.
He wanted me to go there.
He wanted me to further my studies there!
So, I have decided, I will accept that, go there, and further my studies to a higher education!
"Thank you, Usui! Muaxx! You're the Best!"
I sent back to him - thanked him.
Then I lay on my rectangular bed, my head on my fluffy pillow, and I slowly drifted to sleep.
