CHAPTER 8
HAS BEEN OVER TWO MONTHS SINCE THE INCIDENT MAKING USAGI 5 ½ MONTHS. USAGI AND HER FAMILY HAVE BEEN GETTING READY FOR THE BABY'S ARRIVAL. THE ROOM HAS BEEN SET UP FOR THE NEW BABY GIRL THAT WOULD BE PART OF THE FAMILY SOON.
"I LOVE IT, MOM!" USAGI SAID LOOKING AT THE PINK DECORATED ROOM
"IT'S KAWAII, NE." IKUKO SAID SMILING AT HER DAUGHTER
"MOM, I'M SOHUNGRY! WHEN'S DINNER GOING TO BE READY?" USAGI SAID SMILING AT HER MOM
"I'LL GET IT...HELLO!" USAGI SAID PICKING UP THE PHONE
"USAKO, PLEASE RECONSIDER! I LOVE YOU AND I WANT TO BE APART OF OUR CHILD'S LIFE" MAMORU SAID ON THE OTHER LINE
"(SIGH) MAMORU, I ALREADY EXPLAINED TO YOU THAT YOU CAN SEE THE BABY ANYTIME YOU WANT, BUT THERE'S NO SECOND CHANCE FOR YOU AND ME. I'M SORRY SO PLEASE STOP CALLING!" USAGI SAID HANGING UP THE PHONE BEFORE MAMORU COULD RESPOND
"MAMORU, AGAIN; ISN'T THAT ABOUT THE HUNDREDTH TIME TODAY?" IKUKO SAID SMILING WALKING TO THE KITCHEN
BLUSHED AND FOLLOWED HER MOTHER TO THE KITCHEN TO GET DINNER STARTED. USAGI SAT ACROSS FROM HER MOTHER.
"MOM, I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO? I LOVE HIM BUT WHAT HE DID WAS UNFORGIVABLE!" USAGI SAID TEARS COMING TO HER EYES
"SWEETHEART, DON'T CRY. I KNOW YOU'RE CONFUSED, AND EVEN THOUGH MAMORU ACTED LIKE A JACKASSHE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE." IKUKO SAID SIGHING
LOOKED UP AT HER MOTHER IN SHOCK. SHE COULD NOT BELIEVE HER MOTHER JUST SAID SHE THINKS MAMORU DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE.
"YOU'RE JOKING RIGHT?! MOM HE PUT ME THROUGH SO MUCH PAINHE HURT ME SO BAD!" USAGI SAID STANDING OUT OF HER CHAIR
"USAGIEVERYONE DESERVES A SECOND CHANCE. IF I DIDN'T BELIEVE IN SECOND CHANCES YOU AND MOTOKI WOULDN'T BE HERE!" IKUKO SEMI-YELLED AT HER VERY STUBBORN DAUGHTER
"MOMWHAT DO YOU MEAN?" USAGI ASKED
"DO YOU THINK ME AND YOUR FATHER WERE ALWAYS SO HAPPYAT ONE POINT ME AND YOUR FATHER SEPARATED FOR OVER SIX, 6, MONTHS WHILE I WAS PREGNANT WITH MOTOKI." IKUKO SAID SMILING AT HER DAUGHTER'S EXPRESSION
"WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN YOU AND DAD, MOM?" USAGI ASKED INTENTLY
"WELL" IKUKO STARTED SIGHING
"WELL" USAGI SAID
"OUR PARENT'S WOULDN'T ALLOW US TO BE TOGETHER TILL THE POINT YOUR FATHER GAVE UP HOPE ON US BEING HAPPY WITH ME EXPECTING YOUR BROTHER. I WAS MAD AT YOUR FATHER FOR HALF OF MY PREGNANCY UNTIL I SAW HOW SORRY HE WAS. AFTER A COUPLE OF MORE MONTHS OF TRYING TO CONVINCE YOUR GRANDPARENTS TO LET US MARRY, THEY LET US. BUT THE POINT IS I FORGAVE YOUR FATHER..." IKUKO SAID SEEING HER DAUGHTER SMILING
"YOU GUYS WERE IN THE SAME SITUATION I WAS IN WHEN YOU WE'RE YOUNGERI KNOW IT'S NOTHING TO BE PROUD OF, BUT I'M HAPPY AT LEAST I WASN'T THE ONLY PERSON IN OUR FAMILY TO SCREW UP!" USAGI SAID SIGHING
"YOU DIDN'T SCREW UPYOU JUST MADE A MISTAKE. WHICH IS FORGIVEN, BECAUSE YOU ARE GIVEN ME A GRAND BABY! A GRAND BABY; I STILL CANNOT BELIEVE I AM GOING TO BE A GRANDMOTHER. (SIGH)!" IKUKO SMILED
"THANKS MOMMAYBE I SHOULD GIVE MAMORU ANOTHER CHANCE!" USAGI SAID GOING TO THE PHONE
AND IKUKO EMBRACED EACH OTHER AND BEGAN TO MAKE DINNER.
JUST SAT IN HIS APARTMENT ALONE AND MISERABLE. THE DAY HE SAW USAGI AT THAT RESTAURANT HE BROKE UP WITH AYUMI. HE REMEMBERED HOW UPSET SHE WAS.
CAR DRIVE WAS SILENT. AYUMI LOOKED OVER TO MAMORU FINALLY HAVING THE COURAGE TO ASK
"WHAT HAPPENED BACK THERE IN THE RESTAURANT?"
""
"MAMORU-CHAN, PLEASE TELL ME. I'M YOUR GIRLFRIEND!"
"(SIGH) USAGI'S MY EX GIRLFRIENDME AND HER ARE NOT AT GOOD TERMS RIGHT NOW. HAPPY!" MAMORU SAID STILL DRIVING
"SHE'S PREGNANT. IS IT YOURS?" AYUMI ASKED WITH SO MUCH HOPE IT WAS NOT
"YEAH THE BABY'S MINE." MAMORU SAID PARKING THE CAR INTO HIS PARKING SPOT
"THEN WHY THE HELL AREN'T YOU TWO TOGETHER!" AYUMI ASKED SHOCKING THEM BOTH
"BECAUSE"
"MAMORU, I'M SORRY." AYUMI BEGAN
"AYUMI, I THINK WE NEED TO BREAK UP. AND DON'T EVEN SAY YOU CAN CHANGE, BECAUSE IT'S NOT YOU IT'S ME." MAMORU SAID COLDLY
"I UNDERSTAND. YOU'RE STILL IN LOVE WITH USAGI, AREN'T YOU?" AYUMI ASKED
""
"WELLIT WAS FINE WHILE IT LASTED! BY THE WAY YOU'RE THE BEST I EVER HAD!" AYUMI SAID WINKING AT HIM AS SHE LEFT MAMORU
NAUGHTY, MAMORU! SLEEPING WITH SOMEONE WHO YOU HAVE ONLY BEEN DATING FOR TWO MONTHS! SHAME ON YOU!)
