Chapter 3

"There's only a day left before graduation day! Aren't you excited, guys?" Mr. Narumi, their homeroom teacher, said in a very cheerful way.

The class reacted in different ways, some were happy, some were broken hearted while some sighed in relief.

"Then, for the last day the class will say everything they wanted to say to whoever they want to talk to. So this day are going to be a free day."

"YAAAAAAAAY!" The class danced a mini victory dance not because of this activity but because of the free days. Like a normal class would react.

"Then, I will be going now. Enjoy!" He left the room and the class was in party mode.

"Natsume-kun. . . I have something to tell you." She said.

Natsume stood up and left the classroom while Mikan followed him.

They stopped under the big sakura tree and he sat under the shade of the tree.

"I have something to say as well. . ." Natsume said and covered his eyes with his bangs.

There were a few moments of silence and then Mikan sat down on the other side of the tree. (opposite of where Natsume sat)

"Well, you see. . . I'm going to leave for America right after graduation." Mikan said.

Natsume felt a sudden pain somewhere in his heart. He clenched his fist and didn't even dare to say a thing.

Mikan on the other side wasn't even sure if she is going to leave but then if he's going to stop her then she won't go.

"I'm going to study thea—"

"I DON'T CARE." Natsume blurted out as he stood up and left the tree.

Mikan stood up and ran to catch up to Natsume.

"Natsume, you need to at least listen to what I'm going to say." She shouted.

"why are you telling me these things. I'm not the immigration office so don't tell me those things." He continued walking with hands in his pocket. Discreetly hiding the emotions he has inside.

"I thought that when I'll say these you're going to stop me. Then I guess I'm wrong" her hair cascaded through her shoulder and her bangs covered her eyes.

Natsume stopped and walked towards her.

"Then, let me say what I'm about to say to you." He paused and looked for words to say.

She wiped her tears and stared at his red lost eyes.

"I. . . ." come on, Natsume, speak up. He told himself.

"I. . . . I . . . I hate you this much so I don't care if you're leaving or what. Just leave if you want and don't you dare show up again." He said and walked away.

Damn.

Mikan smiled. I knew it. While smiling she noticed a tear falling. She wasn't conscious about that tear neither did she know what that tear meant.

Mikan started packing up her things. Just minutes after she arrived home, she messaged her Auntie Scarlett that she's going to study in America. I guess she will not attend the graduating ceremony and she might never see Natsume again but then she doesn't care. Because she knows that he won't miss her anyway so what's the use of hoping?

Tomorrow will be their graduation day. It will be the day that they will go to their separate ways. Other will be professionals while others will manage their family business.

"You're flight will be at 11:00 am." Nancy reminded her. "Are you sure you want to leave? Or do you still want to attend graduation?" She added.

"It's decided. If I attend graduation then I'll be late for my flight." She forced a smile and continued packing up her things. She will live in America for like 5 years or maybe forever.

There's really no turning back. It will be her time for now. She will stop thinking about Natsume and stuffs. Well, because by now he must be preparing for the graduation and not thinking about her.

But then, it is decided. No one can stop her. But why does she feel like seeing Natsume before she leaves.

"Natsume-sama, are you ready?" One of his maids asked him.

"Hn" He replied. He fixed his clothes and tied his shoe lace. He looks hotter than before.

Mikan checked her appearance in the mirror. She applied light make up and she wore her silver stilettos. She shooed the dust of her brown mini-dress. What is she wearing? Is she going to the airport or to their graduation?

Natsume entered the car and told the driver to go straight to the school. Will he not watch Mikan leave?

Mikan sat on one of the couches in the airport. She never knew that she have gone this far. She never thought of leaving Japan. Not until Natsume rejected him for the 2nd time. She didn't know what made her said that but then if she didn't say that then it wouldn't have been clear to her that Natsume really do not like her. Ohh, she's really stupid for liking a guy like Natsume.

Natsume made his way through the crowd. There were lots of people in there. May they be students, teachers, school personnel, parents or media but she never saw the brown hair and brown eyes that he expected to be congratulating him. Why does he feel so guilty about saying those stuffs to her? She did that to other girls before but why does he feel like apologizing to Mikan?

He looked for her again. He tried asking her friends but they said that they didn't know.

"I'm going to leave for America right after graduation" That's what she said. Could it be that she wouldn't attend graduation?

That idiot, she said she will leave after graduation. It seems like she left already. He thought as he sat down under the big shady tree of Sakura.

"Flight NJ0978 leaving for New Jersey are now boarding passengers. To all Passengers, flight NJ0978, bound for New Jersey are now boarding passengers."

Mikan looked around her looking for a sign if Natsume is there but I guess he's not. She dragged her luggage along with her walked down the hallways and is about to enter the plane. She walked back to the waiting area and waited for 3 minutes. There she saw no one. Stupid. Why would he come?.

"Last chance for passengers of flight NJ0978, Bound for New Jersey, to board. Last chance for passengers of flight NJ0978, Bound for New Jersey, to board"

Mikan started to walk towards the plane again. She sighed heavily but she held her head high and sat on her designated seat.

5 minutes past 11:00 Natsume stared at the sky and saw an airplane ascend up to the upper sky. I guess I really lost her.
