After a period of silence Mrs.Ishiyama walked up to her husband and gave him a nudge. "O fine Cheryl." Mr.Ishiyama said timidly, "Yumi, Ulrich now I know my behavior hasn't been pleasant lately so I would like to apologize for my actions." Yumi got up on from the couch and walked so that she was in front of her father. She had no intention in letting her father off the hook easily, "Fine." Was all she said as she started up the stairs. Mr.Ishiyama looked back at Ulrich with hatred in his eyes. Ulrich looked from Mrs.Ishiyama to Mr.Ishiyama and quickly ran up the stairs. Ulrich stepped into Yumi's room to find Yumi tearing up pictures of herself and her father. Ulrich walked up behind her and grabbed her hands in his, "Now Yumi don't take it this hard, it will be ok. At least he apologized. A forced one is better then none in some sense." Yumi looked into Ulrich's eyes, "Ulrich I can't forgive him easily for this, I don't know why but I just can't." Ulrich picked up one of the torn photos; it was a picture of Yumi and her father when Yumi was five. "Now Yumi look at this picture do you think that your father really hates you and wants to ruin your life, look how happy you both are in this picture." Yumi grabbed the picture out of Ulrich's hands and stared hard at it. Hot tears started to roll down her cheeks. Ulrich wrapped his arms around Yumi's waist and put his head on her shoulders from behind her. He softly whispered in her ear, "Yumi it's ok your father doesn't hate you and you know you don't hate him. Just go talk to him and get it over with." Yumi whipped a across her eyes and smiled at Ulrich, "Thanks Ulrich." Ulrich looked at Yumi and smiled, "No problem." Yumi left Ulrich in her room so she could go downstairs and talk to her father. When Yumi walked inside the kitchen she found her father eating the left over eggs from breakfast. "Daddy" Yumi said barely over a whisper. Mr.Ishiyama looked up at his daughter and looked back down at his breakfast. Yumi figured he wasn't going to talk so she prepared to do all the talking, "I'm sorry Daddy." Mr.Ishiyama looked at his daughter once again, "I'm sorry too sweet pea." Yumi quickly crossed the room to hug her dad. "Daddy please let me see Ulrich, he's not bad at all, he wouldn't even hurt a fly." Mr.Ishiyama waved his hands like he was swatting the question away, "I don't care pumpkin just as long as you forgive me." Yumi smiled, "I forgive you daddy." Yumi talked to her father for a couple more minutes and made her way back up to her room. When Yumi entered the room Ulrich noticed she was smiling, "Well I'm guessing it went well." Yumi looked up at Ulrich and smiled, "Yes it did, thanks for helping me Ulrich." Ulrich winked, "No problem." Yumi leaned over and hugged Ulrich. When they broke apart they talked about what they were going to do until seven that evening. "Well I need to go and get better clothes if we're going to a party." Ulrich said as he stood up to leave the room. "Well go ahead and get some new clothes, I'm going to take a nap, I don't know why but all of a sudden I'm tired." As Ulrich started to leave he shut off the lights and started to close the door behind him, "Ok sweet dreams sleeping beauty." Ulrich quietly closed the door to Yumi's room behind him and made his way to the front door. On his way there he bumped into Mr.Ishiyama. Mr.Ishiyama looked at Ulrich and shifted uneasily back and forth, "Um Ulrich I would like to apologize for my actions, I hope that I didn't offend you in the process." Ulrich smiled at Mr.Ishiyama, "No sire I understand completely no hard feelings." Mr.Ishiyama looked down at Ulrich and smiled, "Good." Ulrich shoke Mr.Ishiyama's hand and raced out the door so he could quickly get to the store and back.
