Sponsored Content

Umezaki Yushiro gazes at his daughter . She's looking at him seriously and waiting for an answer . He wonders if he should tell her the truth or not . Will that carefree smile leave this world if he does?

If he denies not knowing that man, she won't believe him . "He's my old student . "

It's a gamble that he is willing to take .

She seems upset . "Then, what is his name?"

"Ichihara Kiyoshi . "

He's sure that Kiyohira won't tell her the real name . That's what they decided on . She didn't recognize him or find him familiar when she saw Kiyohira . That's a good sign . That's also a bad sign . Either she will remember at once or she will never remember it . Then, it's better if she never remembers .

Yuhara Kozue senses the tense air between father and daughter . "Umezaki san, you must be hungry . What do you want to eat? It will be my treat . Professor, where should we take Umezaki san?"

He's ignored by both father and daughter pair .

"I don't want to go abroad . " She tells her father, "I will participate in the gaming tournament . "

Umezaki Yushiro sighs . "If you want to go to play games, you can play in the E country . It's quite famous there . "

"Father, are you hiding something from me?" She doesn't beat around the bush anymore . "You don't want me to come to T city . You don't speak about my past . Is there something bad in my past that you want to hide from me?"

He purses his lips and wonders how much he should reveal . His daughter has already sensed something is wrong .

"I will tell you everything if you leave T city with me" He puts up a condition . "I will answer all of your questions . "

She shakes his head . "I won't leave . I will play in that tournament . "

His daughter is blessed with his mother's stubborn nature . "Why do you want to play in the tournament so much?"

"I don't want to go to college and find a new career . I want to become a gamer coach in the future . I will play in the national tournament . If I win, I will go to the world championship and represent my country . " She looks at him with determination . "I won't ruin my present and future because of my past . If you don't want to answer me, I won't ask you anymore . If I don't ever remember on my own, I will accept it as my mind's decision . But, I won't leave T city . I won't run away because there is something that you don't want me to know . It's also your decision whether you want to leave me prepared or not . "

[I miss her . ]

He misses her too .

"She wants to play in the e-gaming tournament . "

[Even without memories, she wants to take the same path . ]

"She loves gaming a lot . "

[That's true . She will become a champion in no time . She is a genius in gaming . ]

"It's not good if she plays . The professor knows that too . "

[He told me that he's taking her to another country next week . She will probably never return . ]

"Is that so?"

So, today is the last time .

At least, he could see her for one last time .

The father and daughter pair keep their silence during the entire mealtime . Yuhara feels like he can experience the pressure from both sides . The silence is killing him . He doesn't even feel this much pressure when the professor asks him about his thesis .

"Umezaki san, do you want to eat more?" Yuhara asks with fake excitement in his voice .

She stuffs her mouth with the cake and drinks water without a word .

Yuhara turns to his professor . "Professor, do you want to order some wine?"

He mimics Rie's actions and adjusts his glasses .

No progress .

After a long silence, Umezaki Yushiro speaks with a mild voice . "What if I tell you that you will regret knowing about your past?"

"That's for me to decide . " She tells him with a clear voice, "I deserve to know . "

He knows that he cannot force her to come with him . She might do something hasty again if he does that . He wants to protect her, but he doesn't want to cut her wings and keep her as a prisoner . She has a dream now . She's right that it should be her decision . He will reveal it to her . She might change her mind and come with him . If she remembers everything later, it will be easier for her to accept .

"Let's take a stroll through the park . "

He holds my hand . "I fell in love with your mother at first sight . It was beautiful love that didn't last long . Your mother was a wonderful person, but she had been diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia not long after we got married . She gave birth to you and gave you that name . She called you the blessing of her life . But, the happiness didn't last long . She became sick and ran away from home with you in her arms . I looked for her everywhere . A few days later, she died in an accident . "

I listen to him quietly . His voice is pained . He must have gone through a lot during those times . It seems that I didn't know my mother even before I lost my memories .

"She left you with her friend's family . I didn't know that you were there . " He walks slowly . "I couldn't find you for 26 years . When I found you, you were someone who suffered a lot because of other people . Your adopted parents abandoned you when you were only 8 . You were raised by your adopted grandparents . You were badly bullied at school . After graduating from high school, you stayed at your home . You didn't like going or meeting with people . You lived the life of a hikikomori . "

I, hikikomori? That's hard to imagine .

My father creases his forehead . "Things changed when your adopted mother died . The Kamiyama family got involved . An old scandal was brought up again . People used you to criticize the Kamiyama family . The eldest son of the Kamiyama family decided to take action to save his family's reputation . He broke your house and dragged you to live with him . He forced you to work . He didn't know about your crumbling mental state . You had a severe eating disorder . "

I step in front of my father . "Are you sure that you are talking about me? I had an eating disorder? I can eat more than you and Yuhara together can . It sounds like someone else's story . "

He pats my head . "Little one, I am glad that you feel that way . "

"Is that so?" I am extremely doubtful of the validity of this story . "Please continue . "

It doesn't hurt to listen .

"He trigged your condition . Then, you found out that your first love and your best friend left you because of your suicidal thoughts and depression . You tried your best to hold on . That was when I found you . I couldn't tell you that I was your father . You wouldn't have believed me . "

I wait for him to tell me more .

"I don't know what exactly happened later . You ran away from Kamiyama house . When the eldest son tried to force you to come back, your mind crumbled completely . You lost your sanity and lost eight years of memory . I was trying to treat you back then . You started to make progress . Then, one day, you were kidnapped . "

It feels like something is itching in the back of my mind and trying to break out . Something else presses its foot and keeps it buried . My feet falter a bit . My father supports me .

"Are you okay?" He asks me anxiously .

"I am fine . " I grin at me, but my heart is beating rapidly .

He scans my face . "You don't look fine . "

"I will tell you if something happens . " I squeeze his hands . "Don't stop . I want to hear everything . "

He releases his breath . "When we found you, you were on the brink of death . Your body was beaten badly . Your kidnapper tried to burn you alive . Half of your body was burned . You had broken bones . You had a miscarriage . You barely survived the surgery and slept for two months . In those two months, I lived like a lost man . I only found you and I was already losing you . "

I freeze . "Miscarriage?"

He stares at me . "Yes, you were two weeks pregnant . "

I touch my belly . I was pregnant . I lost my child because of someone . "Who was the kidnapper?"

"We don't know yet . " My father tells me with a grave tone, "That's why I don't want you to stay here . That person will try to kill you again if she finds out that you are alive . "
