Chapter 29 – The Punishment
Doremi, Tsubomi, Hazuki and Kirarin walked out from Hazuki's house, just when a car stopped in front of the house's gate.
"Otousan," called Tsubomi while she saw that it was her father who came there with their car, "Do you want to pick us up to the airport? Don't you mind if I go there and say goodbye to Tono-kun? After what we did last night?"
"Well, we'll talk about it later. However, I know that you love him so much. At least I should let you have a good farewell with him, and… the most important thing is I and your mother should go there and meet Tonomi's parents now," replied the blue haired father, "because we should talk about you and Tonomi."
"What should we talked about?" asked Doremi to her husband, "Well, I've already forgive Tsubomi-chan though…"
"Even so, I still think that we should punish them both, because they've already did something embarassing last night," Kotake looked at his daughter with a serious face, "Tsubomi, get ready for your punishment."
"Oh no…" sighed Tsubomi, "Okay, I know that it was me and Tono-kun's fault that makes you feel disappointed with us, so I think I don't have choice but to accept your punishment."
She then walked into the car with her mother, along with Hazuki and Kirarin, and after an hour, they arrived at the airport.
"Tono-kuuun!" Tsubomi called her boyfriend and ran to him, hugged him tightly, "I'm glad that I still can say goodbye to you here."
"Tsubomi-chan?" Tonomi was surprised, "You come here? But how about your parents? I recalled that they were mad at us when they found out about what we did last night and…"
"We're the one who allow her to come here to say goodbye to you, Tono-kun," cut Doremi, "because we know that you both are loving at each other, and you both did that fault just because of that love."
"Oh, okay…" Tonomi blushed, "I think you and Uncle Kotake will be mad at me…"
"Well, of course we're mad at you because of what you and Tsubomi did last night , and that's one of the reasons why we allow you both to meet with each other now," said Kotake while he gazed at Tonomi.
"Eh?"
"Because today is your last meeting with Tsubomi," added Kotake, "I won't ever allow you to make any contact with Tsubomi after this meeting."
"Otousan…" Tsubomi broke her hug and said in disbelief, "No, you can't do that."
"No contact by phone, neither contact by email or chatting or social media. You should focus with your study in Paris until you graduate from there," Kotake ignored what his daughter said, "I don't want if you both do that mistake again later."
"Tetsuya, is this the punishment that you want to talk about with Onpu-chan and Tooru-kun?" Doremi asked.
Kotake nodded, "That's what I want for their punishment."
"But isn't it too much? Kotake-kun, Tono-kun will be in Paris about four or five years," stated Onpu, "and since I, Tooru-kun and Nami-chan don't move there with him, I've already ask him to go home and visit us in summer and winter vacations. I think Tono-kun still can meet Tsubomi-chan in those vacations."
"Then, how can we punish them if we…"
"I know!" shouted Tooru while he flicked his fingers. Looked like he got a better idea for his son's punishment, "Tono-kun, I agree with Uncle Kotake that you shouldn't contact Tsubomi-chan by any media, but I think you just need to do that punishment in your first year in Paris."
"Hey, Tooru, what do you mean with that?" Kotake didn't understand with what Tooru said, "Then we should let them meet with each other just after we parted them for a year, shouldn't we?"
"Well, actually it depends on Tono-kun's grade which he'll get when he's in Paris," Tooru explained his idea, "If he gets excellent grade in his first year in Paris, he can meet and contact Tsubomi-chan again, but if he gets a bad grade, or he gets a bad score, even though it's just one bad score that he gets, he still can't meet and contact Tsubomi-chan until he fixes his own grade."
"Hmm…"
"So, Kotake-kun, what do you think about my idea? Do you agree with me?" asked Tooru.
"Okay, Tooru. I agree with your suggestion," Kotake finally said, "Even so, if your son's grade is decreased after we allow him to meet and contact my daughter, I'll make sure that they won't ever meet with each other anymore, and it also means that their engagement canceled."
"Canceled? Otousan, no!"
"I accept that punishment, Uncle Kotake," Tonomi cut what Tsubomi said, "and I'll prove that my love for Tsubomi-chan won't ever disturb my study there."
"Tono-kun, are you serious? How if later your grade…"
"Tsubomi-chan, trust me. I promise to you that I'll always study hard to get excellent grade in my study, and I won't ever get a bad grade. I'll study hard just for you, Tsubomi-chan."
"Tono-kun…" Tsubomi didn't know what she should say to her boyfriend. Her tears was starting to drop from her magenta eyes. She felt touched that Tonomi even promised to her that he would study hard just for her… for someone that he loved since a long time.
Tonomi swept Tsubomi's tears off from her eyes with both of his hands and said, "You just need to wait for me until the time we can meet again, okay?"
Tsubomi nodded and smiled, "I'll be waiting for you here, Tono-kun."
Just go my dear, I want to see you chase your dreams…
As long as you still have the time for your dreams…
You just need to ignore me here…
I'm willing to be parted with you, because it's for your own sake, and I hope you can get everything that you want…
