"Miyu, you have mail. It's from the school," called her mother from the dining room table.
"Thanks Mum!" Miyu pulled her navy blue turtleneck over her head and ran down the stairs. She picked up the envelope and open it quickly and messily.
"Well, what does it say?"
"I got the scholarship! I'm going to Endo!" she danced around before she saw her mother's disapproving look. She stopped in her tracks and silently took her seat. They ate thier meal in silence expect for the occasional "Mmm, delicious" from Miyu.
"I don't understand why you have to jet off to Endo when the schools here are perfectly acceptable."
"Mum, it's not about the school. It's about the opportunity to experience another town. I've never been out of the province before. You've never let me travel before," Miyu said, trying not to sound bitter. "You don't need to worry about a thing. My accomedation and tution is looked after. I'll be fine."
"I'm your mother, it's my job to worry about you," she said with a smile. "Now, brush that hair of yours. It's frightful! I do wish you'd at least do something about those bangs," she teased.
"I know Mum, I know."
"Thanks Mum!" Miyu pulled her navy blue turtleneck over her head and ran down the stairs. She picked up the envelope and open it quickly and messily.
