Hardships of love
chapter 6
Takamina's povWhen I got home the first thing that I was met with was the sound of my parents screaming at one another which was pretty rare. Silently I crept up the steps wanting to avoid getting involved in the argument. I went inside my room and dropped my things on to the floor then dropped on my bed. Why do I feel guilty? That is not important now anyway I am more concerned about why my parents are arguing yes I avoided getting involved but I still want to know.
And well its seems curiosity has took over me because as of now I'm stepping down the stairs quietly until I got to the final step where I sat down and let the screams and shouts into my awaiting ears.
"SHE NEEDS TO TAKE OVER THE COMPANY!"
"WE CAN'T FORCE HER SHE IS AS STUBBORN AS THE TWO OF US!"
"DO YOU WANT ALL OUR HARD WORK TO GO DOWN THE DRAIN?!"
"DO YOU WANT OUT DAUGHTER TO BE HAPPY?!"
"YES BUT SHE NEEDS TO DO THIS NOT ONLY FOR US BUT THE ENTIRE FAMILY IF SHE DOESN'T OUR FAMILY NAME WILL BE BLEMISHED AND OUR COMPANY WILL BE GONE AND OUR FAMILY WONT SURVIVE!"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN EVERYONE IN OUR FAMILY HAS GOOD JOBS THEY WILL BE ABLE TO SURVIVE WITHOUT OUR INCOME!"
"NO THEY WONT!"
Then it turned into slight whispers that my ears were finding hard to catch.
"W-wait what?"
"They wont my mother is dying you know that yours is in a home do you remember little Jurina well her mother and father have lost their jobs and had to tell her they will be out of town while she doesn't know they are looking for jobs this family needs our income or we wont survive Minami needs to take over because we are getting to old."
"B-but."
"Come here."
My body froze. I was being selfish if I don't take over the company my family wont survive I have to do the right thing and forget my dream I will look after my family. I could feel tears about to roll down my face quickly I wiped them away and stood up. Okay Minami it's time to forget about your selfish dream and do what is right to protect this family. I slowly breathed in and out calming myself down before I faced my parents. I stepped down from the last steps and went to the living room as that was most likely where the couple was. "Mommy mama (A/N: Mommy is Mariko and mum is Miichan) I want to take over the company." I stated walking inside and the pair released from their hug and looked at me in surprise. "Minami when did you-" "I came in a little while ago is it true about Jurina's Mama and Papa?" I asked the pair then nodded their heads. "Then that settles it I will take over the family company." I announced faking a smile. "You don't want to be a nurse anymore?" Mommy asked with a look of sympathy in her eyes. "That was my fake dream I just want to look after the family company." I lied looking Mommy in the eyes. Obviously not noticing that I was lying she smiled at me and pulled me in to a hug. Slowly I wrapped my arms around her tall body and rested my head on top of her shoulders since I was smaller and caught my mum's eye. "Thankyou." She mouthed.
I just let out a small smile which practically told her it was okay then she joined the hug.
Looks like my dream will have to be put on hold my family is more important.
Next day after school couple therapySo little miss perfect is late for after school therapy. While I am sitting here with the councilor Mr Kwon waiting for her stupid arse. Tik tik tik minutes and seconds went by I have no idea how many had passed when the door finally opened raveling a very tired looking Jessica. "Okay Maeda-san please site down next to Takahashi-san since you have finally arrived and then I will begin to explain things to the both of you." Maeda shot me one of her famous glares and sat down beside me that is not before she moved her seat away. I rolled my eyes and waited for Mr Kown to explain. "Okay now that you are both here I am Mr Kown but just call me GD the two of you are here because you lack respect for each other and you hate each other you have no choice but to come here or you will be suspended unless you are ill then you are obviously excused now the first thing I want the two of you to do is introduce yourselves and tell me one thing about you." He explained grinning at the end. He pointed at Maeda to introduce herself first. "I'm Meada Atsuko daughter of the owners of Mayuki corp and I hate this stupid midget." She said. GD gulped a little when hearing who her parents were. I chuckled and introduced myself "I'm Takahashi Minami daughter of the owners of MariMii corp and this giant who I hate only hates me because I am small and sexy well I am the entire package." I bragged.
I could see another gulp come from GD as he who my parents were. I force myself not to giggle then awaited for him to speak. "O-o-okay then Maeda-san can you please name three things you like and dislike about Takahashi-san." He requested looking a bit scared. "She only cares about food she is stupid she is ugly she never thinks before she speaks she never stops eating she acts like a five year old an-" GD interrupted her before she could say anything else and said "I thought I asked you to name three good and bad things." Maeda tilted her head to the left then replied "I could only think of bad things she doesn't have anything good about her." she then turned her head to face me and stuck her tongue out at me. "Takahsahi-san can you please do as the same as I asked Maeda but actually name three good things." I nodded then began "She is ignorant thinks she is better than everyone else and she thinks she can tell people what to do the things I like about her are ...... erm I cant think of any but my list of things I dislike can go on and on and on." he shook his head at me. "You are both hopless." He muttered pinching the bridge of his nose.
"Now why don't we see if you guys have anything in common okay I'm going to ask you guys some questions and both of you answer at the same time okay?" The two of us looked at him rolling our eyes hinting that we didn't want to do this but he didn't get the hint since he started asking the damn questions. "Okay so things you hate?"
"Maeda."
"Takahashi."
"O-okay erm food you dislike."
"Maeda."
"Takahashi."
"You guys arnt food."
"Well we can be eaten by sharks right so we are food so the thing I dislike that is food is Maeda."
"And I dislike Takahashi."
"Aish okay things you like."
"Things that arnt Maeda or her friends."
"Things that arnt Takahashi or her friends."
GD looked as if he was about to scream that was until a light bulb lit up in his head. He clicked his fingers and jumped up from his seat landing firmly on his feet screaming "I've got it I've got it!" I just looked at him unfazed by this since I was use to it because of my cousin Jurina. "What have you got?" Inquired Maeda clearly not impressed by GD's little jumping kid like faze. "Takahashi you will walk home Maeda tonight and Maeda will walk you home tomorrow and you cant refuse or you will be suspended." He answered smiling proudly to himself.
WORSE IDEA EVER!
"I am not walking that thing home!" Myself and Maeda exclaimed jumping from our seats. "Isnt it worse enough we have to do this and see each other everyday?" I asked. GD laughed and shook his head not wanting to hear what I had to say. "Come on please I don't want to go to prison for killing her I'm 18 please I'm begging and a Meada never begs." She begged getting down to her knees. GD just shook his head once again then said "Okay you can leave now Minami take her home." I sighed and took Maeda's hand in mine dragging her up from the floor and pushed her towards the door. "I need to get home so hurry up idiot."
"Don't touch BAKA!" She shouted opening and slamming at behind her as she walked out. "Go get her or you are both suspened."
"This school sucks."
"Get use to it."
I went after Maeda quickly catching up to her since I am fast. "Idiot wait up just let me walk you home I don't want to get suspended." I ordered she didn't stop much to my disappointment. "Stop now and let me walk you home or I will tell the school your secret!" I demanded. She stopped in her tracks. Truth be told I really don't know any of her secrets but if just saying that this is enough to stop her then I think I will use this more often. "What secret?" She whispered once I caught up to her. "Thats for me to know and you to find out." I replied walking a head motioning for her to follow which she did. "But I already know it after all it is my secret." She said. "Well now its mine to keep secret." I said.
The walk to her house felt like years had passed when in reality it was about half an hour the air around us was tense and awkward. Standing outside her house I waited for her to enter. "Go inside so I can go Idiot." I said she groaned at me and flipped the middle finger up in response and entered her house.
I hate my life.
