🐇🍡The Secret Ingredient Called Love🍰🐈 - DISCONTINUED

#4 "Is It Too Late To Back Out Now?"

Short Recap~

"Do you have to go somewhere you're needed to be?" Akira asked.

The young lady hastily stood up as she remembered something important.

"Oh that's right! Kira-kyun, can I borrow your phone?"

3rd Person's POV

Akira watched from the sidelines, as Michiyo talked animatedly on the phone. He was able to make out the lines, "I'm sorry", "I promise", and "Thank god" in the conversation.

"You're a life saver, Moe-kyun. Thank you very much. Have a safe trip back home." She ended the call with a smile and handed the silver white haired boy his phone.

"So that was your butler, huh?" Akira inquired.

"Yep. He informed me that he was going back to Hokkaido for some urgent matters. That's why he can't come and drop me off the dorm." The lilac haired girl informed.

The silveret gave her a smug smile. "Well, you're in luck. I happened to know 'almost' every route and building in Tōtsuki."

"Hoh~? Almost, you say?" She hummed.

"So... Do you happen to know where Polar Star Dorm is?"

🐇🍡💗🍰🐈

Akira and Michiyo are currently making their way (A/N: downtown~ 🎤😌🎶) towards Polar Star Dorm, occasionally talking to each other to catch up for the times they've missed over the last few years, from Akira's life in Tōtsuki to Michiyo's travels from all over the world. Sure, they have communicated through phone calls everytime she called, but it's just not the same without her.

Halfway along the road, Akira's phone rang. His eyebrows furrowed upon seeing the caller ID and reluctantly pressed the green button and answered the call. "Hey, Jun—" Before he could even finish his sentence, a shrill voice was heard on the other line.

"Hayama-kun, where are you?!!!"

The said boy immediately moved the phone away from his ear, a stream of gibberish was heard on the other line. "Calm down, Jun. I don't understand a word your saying. By the way, I'm with Michiyo right now." This time, he placed the phone on the lilac haired girl.

"Hello, Professor Jun~" She greeted.

"Michi-san! How long has it been~? Are you doing ok? Why don't you come and visit me here sometimes? I would like to—."

"Jun, you were saying?" Akira immediately put the phone back to his ears, cutting in before it becomes a full-blown, one-sided conversation. Mostly of Jun's nonstop blabbering.

"Ah, that's right! Hayama-kun, I need you! Hurry!" With that, the call ended abruptly.

Akira stared at his phone incredulously. 'Seriously? That woman— What is it this time? And such a bad timing too.' He groaned inwardly, secretly murdering the chibi professor on his head.

"Kira-kyun?"

Though he was snapped out of it by Michiyo's sweet airy voice. He gave her an apologetic smile. "Sorry, duty calls. I have to go and save that chibi again before she causes anymore trouble. Though I would really like to send you off before you go..." He said as his smile turned into a somber one.

The lilac haired girl shook her head. "It's alright, Kira-kyun. I think you should go. Sounds like Jun is in a pickle."

"But—"
