Revenge is a Dish Best Served Cold

Epilogue

<<<10 years later>>>

"Juudaime!!There's a letter for you!" My ever so loyal pup--I mean--Right-hand man came running in waving a white envelope in hand.

I took the letter with a thanks and glance at the name of the sender.

Osamu Kaneda

He was one of my classmates back in Middle School. He, along with my other classmates used to bully and mock me back then but everything had changed after that faithful day.

'I wonder what he wants after so long.' We were each busy with our own business that we never met up or talk after our graduation.

I opened the envelope and pull out a piece of paper. On it was a handwritten invitation requesting for me to attend a 10-year anniversary class reunion dinner at one of Osamu family's restaurant next week.

Over the years, the Osamu family restaurant's business has been blooming ever since Osamu took over the business from his dad. It's now one of the most famous and biggest restaurants in Namimori.

'It's very generous of him to organize and invite us for dinner at his restaurant.' I thought with a smile. 'Maybe I should go and see how everyone is doing.'

"Hayato, how's my schedule for next week?"

"You have an important meeting on Monday but after that you're free. There are still some stacks of paperwork for you though." He said nervously.

"Is it urgent?" I asked.

"No..."

"Then it's fine. I'll do it when I get back. How about you? I'm sure you got the invitation too."

"I'm going if you're going Juudaime."

"Alright." I sighed. He probably doesn't have any interest in seeing his old classmates again but he'll come along anyway.

"I wonder if Takeshi is going."

"Knowing the baseball nut, I'm sure he is. Same for the girls, they already informed me that they're going." Hayato informed me.

"How exciting. I haven't seen the girls for quite some time already. I can't wait for next week to come." I smiled but then sighed. "I better hurry and finish all these paperwork while I can. I have a bad feeling that more are coming my way...." I sulked.

"I'm sorry Juudaime! If only I can stop those two idiots from fighting and causing you more trouble!" Hayato bowed and I hurried to get him to stop doing that.

"Like I said a million times, you don't have to feel bad about giving me paperwork. I blame those two demons, not you." 'Besides, I have a feeling you'll just add more fuel to the fire if you join in...' My head hurts at the thought of 3 happy trigger guys running around the mansion.

I definitely do not need more crazy guardians running about and throwing explosives around. Two is already a handful and occasionally, an extremely overexcited boxer would join in the fray, resulting in more destruction.

A week flew past and it's the day of the reunion dinner. The dinner starts at 7pm but the letter states to be there earlier so that we could catch up with old friends again.
