~*~Chapter Eleven : An unexpected visitor at my door~*~
Monday, February 18th 2002:
I left Tokyo three days ago. I had no time writing down as I first went to see my parents, and Marron and Goten. I was with them for the weekend and arrived this morning at Osaka Uni. Yes... back to university and its books. I am still wandering if I wasn't better off working with Samira than working on reports and getting tested all the time at exams !
I know I should not be thinking about him so much ... It's hard... really hard as I really had feelings for him. You might think I am just a stupid naive girl who cannot control herself on a stupid crush ... but it is more than that. Much more.
My feelings are so mixed between revenge, anger and love. Love... yes I still love that jerk even though he's hurt me a lot...
Have to get going ... I have to get back to uni for my last period for the day

Wednesday, February 20th 2002:
Jason and I have to work together on a project related to privatisation and issues related to changing a company's status. Haha, I can still laugh when I remember Jason at hi school. He was a guy on who I had a crush ... and of course he did not feel the same... Until the day I want to that prom ball and that no one recognized me when Marron dressed me up.
It's funny but now that I my crush over him is over, it seems that he is interested in me... Or at least it seems that way as whenever I go somewhere, I bump into him somehow. However our professor has assigned the groups.
We were at the university library doing some research as Jason suddenly told me that he's found a great project idea. I am say despite Jason's numerous downfalls ... one thing I can tell is that when it comes to work ... he is the best student.
As I asked him what it was he told me he has the documents at home and so we left to his place.
As we got there Jason left me in the hall to go and fetch a pile of newspapers. He then proceeded in showing this famous merger project.
He happily found one of the pages related and showed it to me.
I will never have peace... will I ?
The title read "Capsule Corporation finally gets the deal to take over Tokyo Telecommunications System" and in the article was a picture of Trunks shaking hands with the former Director of Tokyo Telecommunications System.
-"Isn't that a great project to work on ? I'm sure we could try and get interviews from some of the staff of Capsule or TT ?" Jason said enthusiastically
-"I would rather work on something else Jason ... really" I said rather plainly
-"You have to be kidding Pan" Jason said irritated "I'm sure I can arrange to get stuff from TT as my ex works there"
-"Oh I didn't think any of your ex's would help you out" I said laughing
-"Don't underestimate my potential of charm young lady" Jason said seductively and got close to her
I just moved one step back.
-"Ok Panny ... but we still have to find someone at CC" Jason said getting back to the work
I seriously felt like telling him 'Did I tell you I had an affair with CC's president ?' but that just would not do.
-"Just hold on a sec Panny" Jason told me before reaching for his phone
He dialled a number and spoke to his ex about his project and that he needed information. Amazing enough the girl gave him all the necessary data and promised to send him a pile of documents. Can't believe there are more fools like me in this world and a whole lot of jerks like Trunks.
She also gave Jason the name of one of the CC's main person in charge of the accounting division at Osaka and Jason thanked her ... told her to come to his place one evening and rand off.
-"You see Pan, I can get things done..." he winked
-"I can see that all right" I answered him
Jason then dialled another number, the one his ex gave him and spoke to a certain Ms Roamer. After a few minutes, he managed to get an appointment with her on Friday.
I guess I am cursed... I never accepted working on CC but now with all the data we have, I don't really have a choice ...
After that the two of us got our project organized. Who will do what and so on. It was getting late as we finished the preliminary work. We decided to stop work for today and Jason ordered a pizza and I ended up watching a movie at his place.
As I got up in order to go back to my room which was just on the next floor ... he came behind me and hugged me tight ... "Panny, why don't you stay the night here with me ..."
I actually hesitated for a while but I declined the offer.
-"I have to go Jason ..." I said and left his room and went straight to mine.
Weird day I guess ...

Jason is acting as if never asked me anything yesterday night. I guess it's better that way... Anyways, I just can't believe I hesitated yesterday night !
After all it would be a great idea for Trunks to see me with Jason ...
Oh no ... I forgot that I might see him tomorrow !!!
What to do ? What to do ???? HELP NEEDED
I better call Marron

Saturday, February 23rd 2002:
What to say ... I am a fool ... a fool ... a stupid idiotic fool !!! I don't even know where to start all this... How could I have been so naive to believe him ... What a stupid girl I am
I'm totally ashamed of myself. I don't even know where to start all this
Yesterday at ten o'clock I met Jason outside university. We went to his car and planned out our appointment at CC and he drove me there.
-"What's wrong with you Pan ?" he asked me suddenly
-"Nothing much" I lied
Jason did something I never expected. One hand on the steering wheel and the other took mine and held it tight. I just did not know what to think of the whole scene.
As we got to Capsule Corporation Osaka. He let go my hand and told me firmly to get down and to bring the writing material.
We went inside the building and I asked the receptionist for Ms Roamer. After indicating where her office was, Jason and I proceeded to go and meet her.
There we did our survey, asked hundreds of questions, got most answers we wanted. As we were finishing our interview, Ms Roamer got a call and answered it.
-"Yes Mr Brief, what can I do for you ?" she asked sweetly
Jason whispered into my ear "Damm... that guy probably fucks all his female staff ... have you noticed that there are only good looking chicks here ?"
I just gave him a furious glare for which he chuckled.
-"Come on Pan ... I'm not the only one doing it !" he laughed
-"Yes I've nearly finished with them" Ms Roamer continued over the phone
-"Certainly in five minutes" She finally said and hung up
-"Ok, where were we" she turned back to us
-"Yes, about the financial previsions ?" Jason grinned
As the interview finished and we were going to leave, the door of Ms Roamer opened and he was standing there confused as much as I was.
But why should I had been confused. I know he works for CC and as a matter of fact owns the whole bloody thing.
-"Mr Brief, these are the two students of the University of Osaka Mr Zenuki and Ms Son" Ms Roamer introduced
-"Hello Panny, long time no see" he stated before turning to Jason and shaking hands with him
-"Oh I did not know you knew him Pan" Jason asked puzzled
-"Well Tr ... Mr Brief's opened a branch of Capsule in our little town ... and as the town is so small ... we all got to meet Mr Brief" Pan said rather quickly.
-"Have you finished Kat ?" Trunks asked Ms Roamer
-"Yes, we have" she answered as she took her handbag and locked the office as she left.
I was really annoyed to see this man acting as if nothing happened between the two of us and is openly seducing this Ms Roamer when I know his girlfriend is in Tokyo.
As the four of us were in the lift, I was controlling my tears... actually it was a real inner fight for me to handle.
At a point I just stared at Trunks and he looked back and gave me the most charming smile ever ! As the lift doors opened, Jason and Ms Roamer got off first and Trunks quickly turned and told me "I missed u hon" and got off the lift himself.
I was the last to leave the lift. I walked out rather slowly observing the whole situation
The guy has the nerve to tell me that he misses me and walks away with another woman ! No way !
Anyways, as I got into Jason's car, he asked me again if I was ok. I said that I was fine
-"Come on Panny now why didn't you tell me you know the President of Capsule Corporation ? We would have saved a lot of time don't you think ?" he asked me as we were driving out.
-"I don't really know him well enough to call him like that" I answered thinking to myself that if was quite true indeed.
I don't know this person ... I just ... well ... nearly slept with him only... that's about it ... nothing much ...
-"But then he called you Panny, isn't it ?" Jason insisted
-"So what ? most people call me Panny included you" I answered back a little annoyed about the whole situation and with Jason asking me all these questions.
-"So then why are you so ..." Jason started
-"... I am just a stupid idiotic female! You happy" I practically screamed out at him.
My face was full of tears and there was nothing I could do for it
-"Panny ... you ... he ... have been involded together ?" Jason asked her
-"Sort of ... he just tricked me and seduced me ... and now ... well ... just see the result ... he's flirting with someone else" I said
Jason put one arm around me and gave me a short and quick hug ...
-"That is why you did not want to do this report on CC ... I'm so sorry ... If only you had told me ..."
-"How can it be your fault ?" I asked him
-"True" Jason said before adding "Don't worry I won't ask you any more questions unless you want to talk about it"
-"Thanks Jason" I told him
We arrived at the university just a few minutes later. For the first time I saw Jason as a real friend or so he seems to be for me. I would have never imagined that from him.
On a common basis we decided to see to the report tomorrow and after saying goodbye to him went and locked myself in my room. There were fortunately no classes in the afternoon and I was able to fall asleep for a little while.
I suddenly heard someone knock at my door. As I woke up I realised it was past five o'clock in the evening. With difficulty I managed to get to my feet and in some sort of daze went to the door.
-"Who is it ?" I asked with a groggy voice
-"It's me Panny" A familiar voice answered
As I opened the door ... I was surprised and amused as I never expected to see him at my doorstep.
-"Hi" I said
-"Won't you let me come in ?" he asked me
-"Yeah, sure. Sorry for the mess as it is not like your place" I answered
After letting him in, I closed the door behind me
