Here is Chapter 3 of my story. Again, I want to thank the people who read and reviewed the previous chapters of my fic. Please support it until the end. Thanks! Anyways, let's proceed to the story.

Chapter 3

Mikan's POV

Actually, I still can't believe what he said. That, that, that… he loves me… ?"

End of POV

"Mikan! Stop staring at the wall! You're thinking about Natsume again right? Aiieee!" Anna teased.

"Stop Anna! You know, you should go. You should all go! It's already late and besides, we still have classes tomorrow so buhbye!" Mikan pushed the three to the door.

"Okay okay, we'll go! I know Natsume's gonna go here to pick you up for a midnight date!" Nonoko teased.

"Shut up!" Mikan blushed.

"Don't just shut up shut up me baka!" Hotaru got her baka gun from her pocket and shot it to Mikan. Baka baka baka baka baka! The hit and sound of Hotaru's "Torture" gun blew Mikan to the wall.

"Why'd you do that? I was actually talking to Nonoko!" Mikan said.

"Bye!" In an instant, the three vanished."

"Phew! I'm glad that's over!" Mikan sighed in relief.

Knock knock

Mikan heard a knock and opened the door. "You three, stop teasing me already please!" Mikan yelled.

"Ano Mikan-chan, is there a problem?"

Mikan was surprised because it's not the three who's there.

"I'm so sorry Narumi-sensei, I thought you were…"

"Okay, it's alright. No problem but you? Do you have a problem?" Mr. Narumi asked.

"Nothing!" Mikan shooked her hands that made her look like she's hiding something.

"Okay, I'll not interrogate you anymore. It seems you have a secret." Mr. Narumi looked at her suspiciously.

"No no!" Mikan shooked her hands once again.

"If you don't want to say then it's alright. Ja!" Mr. Narumi was about to leave when…

"Matte!" Mikan held his arm. "Did you come here just to ask what's happening?" Mikan asked.

"Oooooh. I almost forgot! Thanks for reminding. Here's a letter for you. Actually, it's really surprising because I got two letters at the same time and take note, at night. Well, coincidences do exist. Silly me! Ja! Now it's really real. Haha." Mr. Narumi REALLY leaved.

Mikan put the letter at the top of her study table and sat. She didn't bother to open it and in fact, she just stared at it for a couple of minutes. Realizing it was already very late, she placed the letter inside the drawer, dropped herself into her bed and slept.

Ring ring ring ring ring

"Oh, shut up! Stop ringing you stupid alarm clock!" Mikan pushed the button that stops the snoozing of the alarm clock when she saw it was already quarter to 7 which was exactly 15 minutes before classes start. She went to the bathroom and took a bath for 5 minutes, put on her clothes for another 5 minutes, made and stuffed a sandwich in her mouth for another 5 minutes and started running because it's already time!

Mikan hurried to the classroom and while running, she bumped into someone! Her sandwich fell.

"Look what you've done! My sandwich's now inedible!" Mikan shouted.

Natsume didn't even look at Mikan's face and just went on walking. Mikan noticed that Natsume dropped something.

"Natsume! You dropped something." Mikan picked up and saw that it was a letter.

Natsume panicked and hurriedly grabbed the letter in Mikan's hands.

"Don't touch anything that's not yours!" Natsume shouted.

"I was just trying to help you know!" Mikan shouted back.

"Help me? Why don't you help yourself first! It's already time for class and you're still here!" Natsume shouted AGAIN.

"You're right! WAAAAAAAA!" Mikan ran to the room and when he reached there… "Ohayou Gozaimasu! Sumimasen Narumi-sensei!"

Everybody laughed.

"What are you doing Mikan?" Yuu asked.

"I'm late, am I not?" Mikan asked.

"So?" Yuu sarcastically asked.

"So I will be reprimanded, right?" Mikan answered back with a question.

Baka baka baka baka baka

Mikan flew to the wall. "Why'd you do that Hotaru? I still haven't recovered from the "TORTURE" you did to me last night! And now, you're hitting me again!" Mikan yelled.

"You know "that" Narumi has NEVER EVER been late.."

Everybody looked at Hotaru.

"..for less than an hour!" Hotaru continued.

Everybody sweat dropped.

"So why are you late?" Hotaru asked.

"I kinda umm overslept." Mikan answered.

"And why did you overslept?" Hotaru asked.

"I kinda umm slept late last night." Mikan answered.

"And why did you slept late last night?" Hotaru asked.

"It's because I got a le.."

"You got what?!"

"It's because you didn't leave early so I slept late okay! AND STOP ASKING QUESTIONS!"

Baka baka baka baka baka baka

Hotaru shot her baka again. "Don't shout at me."

Mikan didn't even react. It's like she's in deep thought.

"You're not hurt?" Hotaru emotionlessly asked.

"No. It's just that... OF COURSE YES! WHO WOULD NOT BE HURT WHEN YOU TORTURE OTHERS?! YOU TORTURER!"

After shouting, Mikan went to her desk and sat. She stared at the window and thought of what is inside the letter.

Day by day, Mikan is always late in her classes. But of course, Mr. Narumi is much much more late than her. And day by day, she began to forget to read the letter because she didn't even bother to look at it.

One day…

Knock knock

Mikan opened the door when he heard someone knocking.

"Mikan, can I borrow a knife?" Hotaru asked.

"A KNIFE?! WHY WOULD I BRING A KNIFE IN SCHOOL?!" Mikan shouted.

"You have one neh. You just don't want to let me borrow it."

Hotaru searched in Mikan's room and opened each and every drawer in each and every cabinet there.

"The truth is I only want to borrow a scissor." Hotaru got the scissor at the drawer of Mikan's study table. "Ne, what's this?" Under the scissor was the letter Mikan got from Mr. Narumi. "This is a love letter right?"

"Give me that!" Mikan said and tried to get it from Hotaru.

"No. I'll read this first before giving to you." Hotaru said.

"Stop! I haven't read that either!" Mikan said.

"Really? Then I'll read this for you." Hotaru opened the letter and Mikan grabbed it.

"I said don't read it!" Mikan said.

"Why?" Hotaru asked.

"It's just that…" Mikan didn't continue what she's saying.

"You're afraid?" Hotaru teased.

"No!" Mikan said.

"Then read it!" Hotaru said.

"Fine!" Mikan said.

Mikan opened the letter and read it. It says.

My beloved daughter Mikan,

I just want to inform you that I will go there in Japan next month. I want to announce your engagement with your fiance.. It will be a big fuss if the daughter and son of two of the largest companies marry out of the blue so informing the public earlier will be much better. I believe you have already lived your life how you wanted to live it. See you soon!

Much love,

Mother

"I can't believe this!" Mikan dropped the letter.
