Previous Chapter:
Mikan barged in the Newspaper Club's room and saw that it was Sumire and the rest of the club members, busy writing since they were about to publish a new newspaper.
Mikan slammed her fist in Sumire's desk, Sumire was forced to look at the person and was shocked to see Mikan Sakura right in front of her eyes.
"Permy, I would like to arrange a press conference with the Newspaper club members." Mikan said, and with that Mikan exited the room leaving Sumire and company with their mouths hanging open.
Chapter 4- The Press Conference
Sumire and her friends are busy preparing the room to be used as the venue of the press conference to be held tomorrow. Once they are finished with the preparations, Sumire gathered them all to give final instructions.
"Ok guys, tomorrow is the day," she said to the lot. "I want all to be perfect, but what I want the most is always find a loophole in anything that Sakura will say, got it?"
Everyone nodded in agreement. When there were no questions raised, everyone was dismissed.
"I see that you finally made a step to solve your problem, baka" a lady with purple eyes said to the hazel ones.
"Yes Hotaru!" Mikan said happily, "But you didn't help me one bit," Mikan added wi th a pout.
"You need to be independent," Hotaru said airily.
"Mou, Hotaru," Mikan lowly growled.
"Anyway, are you ready for your speech tomorrow?"
"Now that you said it, actually, no."
"Yapari," Hotaru chanted and handed Mikan a piece of paper.
"What's this?"
"Read it for yourself, baka. That would be worth 75 rabbits, but then, consider it as free since I've been busy lately so I can't help you in your press conference tomorrow."
It says.
I, Mikan Sakura, am solely telling you the truth from the very start. Sitting here, in front of you, meant that I'm not afraid and especially not guilty of any accuses you accused against me. I'm solely guilty-free. To make my point very short, at that time, I did not fart.
You answer this when they ask you what's the purpose of you arranging the pressconference. Gud luck, Baka.
"Arigatou, Hotaru!" Mikan squealed as she jumped and tried to hug Hotaru.
Baka Baka Baka.
"You never learn," Hotaru said monotonously as she exited her room leaving a smoky Mikan on the floor.
-Press Conference-
Mikan had to close her eyes to avoid the flashes from cameras that surrounded her, she made her way to the center of the long table and sat on the chair. She really had a great feeling that she's going to be beheaded.
A girl, probably a member of the fanclub, approached Mikan at the center with a bible.
"Place your left hand over the bible, raise your right hand and repeat after me," the girl said.
What the hell? Is this a press conference or a trial court?
"I,"
"I,"
"State your name,"
"Mikan Sakura,"
"promise to tell the truth,"
"promise to tell the truth,"
"in sickness and in health,"
"in sickness and in health,"
"Till death do it part."
"Till death do it part."
And with that, the girl exited.
Then the newspaper clu members started to fire her questions.
"Name"
"Mikan Sakura"
"Age"
"17"
"Birthday"
"January 1,"
"Gender"
"Duh! Obviously a female!" Mikan rolled her eyes.
"Are you really going to tell the truth here?"
"Of course!"
"Then please state the reason why you set up this press conference with us to get this over with."
Mikan looked at her palms where she hid the piece of paper that Hotaru gave her. And began to read it aloud.
"I, Mikan Sakura, am solely telling you the truth from the very start. Sitting here, in front of you, meant that I'm not afraid and especially not guilty of any accuses you accused against me. I'm solely guilty-free. To make my point very short, at that time," she stated.
The reporters, cameraman, audience, the newspaper members and particularly all the living things stopped their breaths to here her statement.
Mikan on the other hand was startled by the sudden silence and now started to see all white, she can't read what Hotaru wrote! So while she can, she read the things aloud, the things that she could read at that time.
"I did fart," she said idiotly without thinking what she just said.
The spectators who bet that she really farted jumped in joy, the spectators, who expected that she would deny threw tomatoes, bread, cabbage and heck even mayonnaise at Mikan.
Just realizing what she just said, she closed her eyes and waited for the food to hit her. Mikan curled instinctively and shut her eyes tight.
She noticed that the food didn't hit her, she opened her eyes to see what's happening. But she didn't see anything else except for a big shield of fire that hang in midair, in front of her, protecting her from any damage.
Now what the heck just happened?
Next Chapter Preview:
Seeing the big shield of fire that protected Mikan, everyone else knew that it was Natsume who protected her. Now, the lot bombarded Natsume with questions such as why he did such a thing. But with his reply, everything goes haywire.
"It's useless to throw bread, tomatoes, cabbage and mayonnaise when you could make them into a sandwich,"
