Chapter Twenty-One: Bye Bye
"I'm going to go to America, Mi-Chan." Yuki finally said after thirty minutes of her slowly sipping her tea.
Mikan put down her tea cup and stood up. "I don't really care." Mikan said plainly, "Have a wonderful trip."
Mikan left to the door of the café and found her mother grabbing the back of her shirt. "I want to spend some more time with you though." Yuki whined.
The people in the café looked at them with weird second takes at them and curious looks. "Why would it matter, you've been gone for months before."
"I know, but this time I might not…come home as soon."
Mikan paused and looked at her mother. "What do you mean by that?" Mikan asked.
"Well…we might move there if your father is there and if we work out something."
Mikan froze. "I'm not going to go." Mikan said and stared at her mother hard.
"But as a daughter of mine, you should come with me."
"No, what about Yoichi?" Mikan asked.
"He can come if he wishes."
"That's sexist!" Mikan yelled, "Why does he have the option to come or go and I don't huh?"
Yuki sighed. "You're so stubborn!" Yuki said, "You're so stupid you don't understand anything do you?"
"Well excuse me!" Mikan said and walked out of the café with everyone in there surprised.
"Mikan Sakura! Come back here!" Yuki yelled.
Yuki ran out of the café. A girl was reading a magazine when she put it down. "Hmmm." The girl said, "Maybe I should tell Onii-Chan about this." The little girl said and stood up and left.
(At the Male Dormitory)
Natsume opened up one of his manga books that his sister bought for him a little while back and sighed. "I'm bored." Natsume said to Luca.
Luca laughed inwardly. "What would you like to do then?" Luca asked.
"I don't know, but I'm hungry."
Luca was sweat drop when he saw heard his best friend stomach growl like a bear. "What would you like to eat?" Luca asked.
"Let's go out fo some fast food." Natsume said.
"That's unhealthy if you always eat that." Luca warned.
"Yeah, yeah let's get going already."
Natsume grabbed his sweater and when he opened the door he found his sister panting in front of his door about to drop dead. "What's wrong with you?"
"Mikan-Chan is going to move!" Aoi finally said.
Natsume sighed. "Was that all?" Natsume asked, 'I don't really care if she leaves of not."
Natsume walked past his sister and into the elevator and the door closed behind him. "Come inside and I'll get you something to drink Aoi-Chan." Luca said.
Aoi nodded her head and let herself relax on the on the couch. "Does Onii-Chan not actually care?" Aoi asked.
"I don't know, he probably does care, but doesn't want to show it." Luca said, "Don't worry about it. He'll come around sooner or later."
"Ah." Aoi said.
(With Natsume)
Natsume walked through the park and went to the swings and started to swing on them. "What should I do?" Natsume asked, "Is she actually going to leave?"
Natsume slapped himself in the forehead. "This is so stupid. Why am I even thinking about this?"
Natsume looked up and found Mikan walking pasted him with an angry look. Natsume watched her pass and then he stood up and ran after her well…jogged sort of. "Hey!" Natsume yelled.
Mikan turned and sighed. "What is it?" Mikan asked.
"Come over to my room." Natsume said.
"Why?" Mikan asked a little annoyed.
"Just come." Natsume said and started to walk towards his room.
Mikan looked at him and followed him to his room. Natsume opened the door and found Aoi playing a song on the piano lightly. "Who said you could be in my room?" Natsume asked annoyed.
"Luca-Pyon said that I could stay until you come back." Aoi said sheepishly.
"Hn." Natsume said and tossed his sweater on the sofa and sat down. "When you're done playing go and get me a soda."
Mikan whacked Natsume in the back of the head with the magazine hear by. "Don't you dare order your sister around."
"What ever!" Natsume said, "Like you're one to talk, don't you boss around your brother?"
"No." Mikan said plainly.
Natsume sighed and Aoi got off the piano and went to the kitchen to get the soda. "Do you want something Mikan-Chan?" Aoi asked.
Mikan shook her head. "I'm fine I just came because your Onii-Chan told me to come." Mikan said, "But I don't know why though."
Natsume stood up and walked over to the grand piano and opened the lid and started to play a little and then looked at Mikan who was watching him with a confused look. Natsume started to play cords and then started to sing.
[Come Home]
One Republic
[Verse 1]
Hello world
Hope you're listening
Forgive me if I'm young
For speaking out of turn
There's someone I've been missing
I think that they could be
The better half of me
They're in the wrong place trying to make it right
But I'm tired of justifying
So I say you'll..
[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
So come home
Oh
[Verse 2]
I get lost in the beauty
Of everything I see
The world ain't as half as bad
As they paint it to be
If all the sons
If all the daughters
Stopped to take it in
Well hopefully the hate subsides and the love can begin
It might start now..Yeahh
Well maybe I'm just dreaming out loud
Until then
[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Oh
[Interlude]
Everything I can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why I need you here
Everything I can't be
Is everything you should be
And that's why I need you here
So hear this now
[Chorus]
Come home
Come home
Cause I've been waiting for you
For so long
For so long
And right now there's a war between the vanities
But all I see is you and me
The fight for you is all I've ever known
Ever known
So come home
Come home
Mikan sighed and stood up. "Was that all you wanted to do?" Mikan asked.
Natsume closed the piano lid and nodded his head. Mikan sighed. "I'll just go then." Mikan said and walked towards the door, "I'm not leaving."
Natsume looked at Mikan with a confused look. "I'm not going to America." Mikan said, "I know you were worried…don't anymore."
Natsume smirked. "Alright then."
Mikan nodded her head. "Bye, bye Aoi-Chan." Mikan said.
"Later Mikan-Chan."
