Mmmm...

My head hurts.

My arms hurt.

Everything hurts...

I looked out the window of the hospital bed and sighed.

" I can't believe I snapped like that, it's quite odd."

I'm going to miss the first round.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

Dango.

I grabbed my phone, which was nearby my bed, and answered my call.

" Hello?"

" Yoki...", my eyes widened as I heard the voice.

" Dad?! Why do you sound so scared?!"

" The restaurant. The restaurant. Oh my God, THE RESTAURANT!"

What's wrong with my restaurant?

" Oh God! I can't believe it!"

" What's wrong??"

" A bomb, an explosion. It was nearby and it destroyed our restaurant!"

What?

" Oh, this is one of your little jokes? No?"

" Je suis désolé. Je sais à quel point cela représentait pour toi ... "
(I'm sorry. I know how much this meant to you)

" Do you know who did it? Was it targeted for us or Paris as a whole?"

" It was targeted for us. They had the angles perfect. You have to come immediately!"

" What?! I have no time, I still have the sel-."

" Just come after that! You have to hu— AHHHH!"

He ended the call and I felt nothing but fear.

Fear of losing my reputation.

Fear of losing the restaurant.

Fear of losing my " Father".

Before I knew it I was under the sheets with tears spilling from my eyes.

" Mercy.", I repeated over and over again.

That was until I heard the door unlock.

I wiped my tears and sprung up.

An extremely tall, well-built man came through the door.

" So how did your family like my little surprise??"

" YOU DID THAT?!", I screamed at him.

If only I knew what he was planning.

" Just So you can see what will happen if you don't accept this deal."

If only I knew.

" I'm Mimasaka Subaru. You will listen and follow exactly what I say! You will challenge Takumi for his mezzaluna and you will win.
In that shokugeki you will announce your leave and when you do leave I'll replace your spot."

If only I KNEW.

" Why would I do that?! Takumi is my friend!"

" Oh, whatever. Weak friends are the worst ones!"

If only I knew...

" I Decline your offer!"

If only...

Just when I was about to get up, he slammed me back to the bed.

" You will obey my orders, become my pet, and betray your friends. Or maybe I'll just tinker a little more with your restaurant."

" Or maybe I'll just tinker a little more with your restaurant!"

Tears fell down your cheek and you nodded," Oui Maître."

" Say it so I can understand!"

" Yes, MASTER!"

If only I knew how much this man would affect my life.
