Chapter 12

Chuichirou Noma was busy helping his father on their small sushi shop near Kanagawa College. Most of their customer on the shop was also a student like him.

"Yo Noma," greet Mitsui and entered the shop with the rest of the team.

"Good afternoon, Noma-san, Noma-kun?"Kogure politely greet the father and son with a sweet smile.

"Hey Mitchi, Ryochin...Megane-kun....everyone...Come in.....come in...there's a vacant over there. Feel at home. I'll prepare your food." Chuichirou Noma on the counter preparing some sushi for the other customer. He was glad to see them and at the same time nervous coz he know there is something else they want from him.

They sit on the vacant place and wait for their food. Miyagi can't wait for Noma to come so he asked him while he's serving the other customer. "Noma, Hanamichi called us yesterday."

When he heard Sakuragi's name, he knew really well that they come to asked about him again. "Ah..I know he told me that he call you." and then he gave him the envelop from his pocket. "It's for you Miyagi."

"I remember Chuichirou, how's Hana-chan and You-chan in Tokyo?" A sudden question from his father and he hesitate to answer especially in front of Miyagi and the rest.

"Noma-san, he said they are fine in Tokyo. Do you know their exact address there....you see we want to visit them one of this days...." interrupted Mitsui and glared at Chuichirou Noma.

Miyagi simpered and turn back at the old Noma. "Yeah, yeah.... Noma-san...we miss them so much. We don't know if he continue his college there or what..."

"Actually I had no idea. Just one day, they told me that they are moving to Tokyo. They don't mention if they go to college there. He just asked me to take care of his house. I forgot to asked them about college. Chuichirou, they went to college right?"

"Hehehe I really don't know Otoosan. They don't mentioned it." he sighed and just scratched his head when he heard his father. The group dismayed at old Noma's lack of information. They are hoping that maybe they can have some more info about Sakuragi's whereabouts.

"Noma-san...you're sushi is the best!"

"Hahahaha....really...it's good you liked it! Chuichirou is the one who made it."

"Wow, really! We didn't you know that you're good in making sushi Noma!"

"He's better than me actually. If Hana-chan were here...I'm sure he'll improved this talent in making sushi too hehehehe....hey Chuichirou, when he call again tell him to come back here okay..."

"Hai hai, otoosan!"

"But the last thing I heard from him, he work part time in some sushi shop in Tokyo."

Noma pretends to be busy with the other customer and not to get close to the group just to avoid more questions. He didn't expect that they will asked his father who have no idea about the situation.

Before taking the entrance in Tokyo Uni, Youhei and the rest of the gundam settled that at least one of them must passed the examination and went with Sakuragi in Tokyo. Luckily, Youhei passed the exam with Sakuragi and decided to moved immediately after the graduation.

It's been hard for them to be apart from each other. Only few people knew that they take an examination in that university. Even him, Takamiya and Ohkuso take the exam but they failed. No one in Sakuragi's team mates knows about the exam and his whereabouts. They just do what they think is the best for their redhead friend.

After the Inter High and Winter Cup last year, where Sakuragi Hanamichi hailed as MVP, got an scholarship offered from some exclusive and famous universities. He decided to go to study and grabbed the scholarship from one of the biggest university in Japan, The University of Tokyo, also known as Tokyo Uni.
