Hey, Ma?

Game: Super Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Dispair.

Teruteru:

I need to tell Momma. She needs to know. This... this is the best thing that has ever happened to us. This could pay the bills, this could help buy Mama's medication, this could help Mama and her health, this could save Mommas life. I nedd to stop crying and tell her, but I can't. I cluch harder on the small leaglet in the palms of my hands.

"Teru, baby, I brought you some bent- H-Honey, why are you crying?" Mama trumbles over to me, in pure shock. I try to wipe my eyes, but the tears just keep poaring out. "I-I did it..." I mumble. "Sweetie, you are gonna have to talk louder so Mama Bear can hear you, mkay?" That was my silly nickname for her, and I will cherish it until the day that I die.

"I-I made it..." "Made what, honey?" "Hope's Peak Academy.." I can see the colour drain from my mothers face, before restoring itself and forcing her to hug-tackle me. I can here her faint sobs, her tears dripping onto my combed hair.

"K-KIDS! Your brother has something to t-tell you! Family meeting in Teru and Kai's room!" My mother shouts, with my brother, [Kai], walking in first, followed by everyone else.

"Teruteru, baby, do you want to tell them or should I-I?" I ponder on the thought, while we are still crying. "Look, babay bro, if you are the reason Momma is crying I swear to-" "HE MADE IT TO HOPE'S PEAK ACADEMY!!!" Momma had cut Kai's words with my pleasant little secret, almost making him drop Kaiyo. All of my sibling stood in shock, even Kano, and just to make sure, Koda, my sister snached the letter out of my bear hands. "He... He actually got in..." she states, unamused.

I was rather the stupidest, ugliest and youngest in my family, well, other that my 2 year-old brother and 3 year-old twin sisters. That seemed to be why they were confused. 'How the hell did that little squirt get in before me?' they must be thinking, and, well, I don't know. I take the note back, and read it through in my head:

'Dear Mr Teruteru Hanamura,

We lovingly and pleasantly wish for you to have the chance to join Hope's Peak Academy! Only the best of the best shall be able to join our school, and will be presented the Ultimate Talent they deserve. You now have the title, 'Ultimate Cook' or 'Super High School Level Cook' as of joining Hope's Peak. You shall meet at the school at 08:00 monday morning in the main hall, and we shall introduce you to everyone. Thank you very much,

Jin Kirigiri.'

It read in messy, scribbly handwriting. It was real, right. I pinch myself, It's real. How... How me? Why me? Why not the others? Why not Kai? Why not Koda? Why not Koji or Koki? I hade to be the one that was special, special school, special name, special life, special truth, special me.

Why was I special?

"Y-You best decide what you will wear tomorrow, Teru baby. I-I wouldn't want you getting bullied on your first day. J-just be you, try and make some friends and...," My siblings had walked out of the room, "Don't... Don't forget me, okay baby?" I smile reassuringly. "I will never forget you. Never in a million of years. You made the diner what it is today, so that is all I need. You, myself and this diner." She glances down in surprise. "W-We made the diner what it is today," Momma looks back up at me, "All of us, together. As a team. As a family."

As a family, even though I have barely contributed, I feel... Included.

Momma walks out of my room, giving me privacy. I couldn't believe it, my dream school including me?

I quickly sort an outfit fo the next day: A white polo shirt, my red apron, the bandana Mama had bought for me, black leggings and a pair of boots. I'm not sure if I will change them the next day, but he knew he would have fun. Searching on 'Google Maps', I had tried to locate the High School to see how far I would have to walk. Huh, around 25 to 30 minutes? I could make it by quarter-to-eight. How? That's a secret.

The 'Ultimate Cook', huh? Well, why not chef? It sounds cooler, and the school is popular for the students cool talents. Meh, I'll just say I'm the Super Hig-School-Level Chef.  "Hey, Kid." I hear a voice behind me say, Kai's voice specifically. I couldn't tell him to get out, because we share a room together. "Yes, Kai?" I wasn't allowed to swear at him, and he wasn't allowed to at me. "Tell me, how the hell did you get in Peak?" He asked in a growly voice.

"I wish I could answer that for you, but I can't. I don't know anyone else that is going, so I wouldn't be able to ask them to let me in. Sorry bro." He rolled his eyes at me. "Don't call me 'bro', idiot. I know you did something to get in that damn school, and I will find out."

Trailing out, dragging his feet back almost, Kai left the room without another word. I wish I could have answered him, but I just couldn't seem to get the correct and final answer. There were so many wonderful people going, and I was one of them. There was the ultimate:-

Mechanic - Souda Kazuichi (Known for winning multiple world records of machines and wording robots.)

Yakuza - Kuzuryu *unknow* (Has killed over 10'000 people along with another accomplice.)

Princess - Miss Sonia Nevermind (Owns an entire kingdom, and rules along side her boyfriend, Gundham.)

Breeder - Mister Gundham Tanaka (Rules a kingdom along side his girlfriend, Sonia or the 'Dark Queen', a fellow ultimate.)

And so, so many more! How will I blend in with the crowd?

How can I survive?
