Hello Sora, sorry it's been so long…Life has gotten so busy. Daichi plans on taking over the school. It's official though I do not see Sensai passing anytime soon. I'm now a cooking instructor at the school. Fujita sensai still runs the diner and takes on apprentices from my class. Oh! I was wondering, have you met up with Hagio sensai? She passed not to long ago. No need to worry about the children though, Akane and her new husband Seiyo took them in. They have a huge house. Akane managed to make it as a supermodel. Isn't that great? We all still miss you. I really miss you. Daichi however, is a great husband. He's grown up a lot ever since you left. Sora…before I leave…I want you and Hagio sensai to know…I'm pregnant.

My name is Najika Kitazawa, and I'm now 23 years old. People worried when Daichi and I married right out of high school. However, so far, it's been great. I have my own culinary class, after deciding teaching and making people smile are my passions.

I held on to a large bag that was slung over my shoulder. I wore an outfit of black pants, a white chef jacket, and black shoes. My orange hair cut off into a chin length bob.

"Najika, hold up!"Daichi called after me. I paused and turned to look back at the car with a grin.

"What's up?" I asked as he jogged toward me looking very sharp in his suit, and his wild hair brushed down…or as down as it would get. He looked serious as he took my bag from me and slung it over his shoulder. Giving me a look of 'should you ask?'. I gave him another sheepish grin. "Aww, Daichi, don't be that way" I stated hugging his arm and looking up at him with my big brown eyes. "I'm just fine…really" I placed a hand on my little swollen belly.

"It's better not to take chances" He stated simply his ears turning a little pink as he looked down at me and my childish puppy face. I continued to give him the puppy stare and he sighed and handed me his breif case. "Here, this is lighter" he stated. I let go of his arm and took the brief case with a smile.

"yay!" I stated childishly before my smile faded. I dropped the breif case and slapped both hands over my mouth before running to the nearest tree and vomiting. Daichi came over with a frown

Are you sure your okay to go to work today?" He asked

When I was able I stood back up streight and gave him a weak smile. "Peachy….it's just morning sickness" I told him.

He sighed again and rolled his eyes "Your so stubborn"

I frowned "But you know I don't like sitting around doing nothing…I get soo bored"

A smile returned to his face and he began to laugh. I laughed as well.
