One word. That was all it took for her world to come crashing down. Cancer. Her mom had cancer. That was the reason she was tired all the time, the reason she had been losing so much weight.
Her dad took of soon after that. He couldn't cope, couldn't deal with watching his wife die slowly. So he just ran. And left gambling debts and medical bills in his wake. Left her with a her sick mother and a 12 year old to take care of. Left her with responsibility a teenager shouldn't even think of.
So she got a job. And another one. Moved out of the apartment they were staying in and into a much smaller one, in a much dodgier part of the city. Changed schools. She had to change schools in the middle of her senior year. And against all odds, she got almost 100% on her college entrance exam. She could study anywhere, be free. But she couldn't, she wouldn't, abandon her family. She refused to be like her father, leave her mom to die alone in a hospital room and Suzuna homeless. So she stayed.
Forgot about her hopes and dreams.
In the fall she would be one of the many faces passing through the halls of Seika College.
A/N: this is my first fanfic ever...It will probably be terrible, riddled with mistakes and full of plotholes. But I'm gonna write it anyway! I have no idea how it'll go, just a general thought on the direction... Please review, you'd be absolutely awesome :)
I don't own Kaichou Wa Maid-sama! I'm just an obssesed fan :P
