Mikan POV:
"Here is your order, hope you enjoy your time at Ayame's" I said after setting down their food. I walked away and back to the kitchen.
"Are you finished?" Kiomi, my co-worker, asked.
"Yeah, I need to go home and finish my assignment before going to my night classes" I said before taking my apron off.
"Okay. I'll see you on Saturday" She said before I walked into the locker room and unlocked my locker. I grabbed my bag out of it before locking the locker and leaving the restaurant. I took me about 30 minutes to walk home. We I got there, Jii-chan was in his usual place by the window.
"I'm back" I said kissing the top of his head.
"Don't forget about your classes tonight" He said.
"I know. I just have to finish my assignment and then I'll make dinner" I said before heading to my room. It didn't take me long to finish it and I printed it off. I put it in my bed before walking to the kitchen. When I got there, there was a knock on the front door.
"Mikan, there is a limo outside and a man in a really fancy suit got out and knocked on our door" Jii-chan said as I walked to the front door.
"Yes?" I asked opening the door.
"You look just like your mother" He whispered.
"How did you know my mother?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"May I come in?" He asked.
"Tell me who you are and how you know my mother and I'll let you in" I said.
"Sorry, obviously you wouldn't want a stranger in your house. My name is Izumi Yukihara" He said smiling.
"Is this supposed to mean something to me?" I asked.
"Let him in" Jii-chan said making me jump. I turned to see him standing behind.
"Fine come in" I said moving to the side of the hall. He walked in and followed Jii-chan into the living room. I looked out and saw two bulky man stood outside the gate. I frowned before closing the door and walking into the living room. I took a seat in front of Izumi Yukihara and crossed my arms.
"How are you?" Jii-chan asked looking at Izumi.
"I'm good. How about you?" He asked.
"I've been better" Jii-chan replied.
"Can we just get down to business? What do you want?" I asked Izumi.
"As I said before my name is Izumi Yukihara and I am the king of and island called Sakura that is a couple of miles of the coast of Japan" He said.
"I've heard of it. It is also my last name and if you're a king then why are you here?" I asked.
"Because of you" He said.
"Because of me?" I asked raising an eyebrow.
"Mikan he is your father" Jii-chan said making me look at him.
"Yeah and pigs fly" I said laughing.
"It's true Mikan" Izumi said with a serious expression on his face.
"No because that would make me a princess and I know I'm not a princess" I said standing up.
"Mikan" Jii-chan said standing up.
"Fine say I am a princess, why did you come here?" I asked.
"Because you're my heir Mikan" Izumi said smiling.
"So you abandon me for my whole life and now you show up, un-announced and expect me to take over your throne when you step down? You're unbelievable" I said before running to my bed room.
"Mikan!" Jii-chan shouted. I flopped on my bed and took deep breaths. I could hear Jii-chan and my father speaking. After about an hour I heard a knock on my door.
"Come in" I said sitting up.
"Mikan, I think you should go to live with your father" Jii-chan said sitting next to me.
"N-"
"Hear me out please" He said. I nodded and he continued. "He loves you Mikan. He was in the hospital when you were born. Your mother asked him to stay away you so you could have a normal life. She loved your father deeply but she couldn't marry him, it was different times back then. She didn't want you to have your heart broken. As you grew up they kept in touch, your mother would tell him everything you did. She made me promise to not stop just before she died. He's always been in your life, you just didn't know it"
"Why didn't you tell me this when mum died?" I asked upset.
"I didn't think you'd understand. You were 10 years old, you had enough going on in your life. I couldn't add to that" He said before hugging me.
"I love you, Jii-chan" I said hugging him back
"I love you too, Mi" He said kissing my forehead.
"Okay" I said letting him go.
"You'll do it" He said letting me go.
"Yeah, let's go tell him" I said standing up. Jii-chan stood up and we headed back to the living room.
"I'm sorry about spring that on you" Izumi said.
"Don't worry about it. Jii-chan told me about it all. I'll come with you" I said smiling.
"You will?" He asked grinning. I nodded. "Thank you. I can't wait to spend time getting to know you" He continued.
"But Jii-chan is coming as well" I said.
"Mikan" Jii-chan warned.
"Of course. I wouldn't have it any other way" Izumi said.
"Okay, I'll you in about a week" I said. I was about to skip off when Izumi stopped me.
"A week? We're going back tomorrow" He said.
"No because I need to pack. Quit my job, drop out of college and pack" I said.
"You said pack twice" Jii-chan said. I glared at him and he looked away.
"You can pack today. My team will sort out the rest for you" He said.
"Fine, I'll go pack" I said before walking away. This year has just gotten really, really weird.
