Chapter 1
Sai POV
"Hikaru!"
"Sir, please calm down."
"Hikaru, where is she?"
"Who is Hikaru? Was she with you?"
"I don't know."
I was unsure how I return to a physical body, but I would not question God's decision. All those times I push her to play Go with me when she wasn't feeling well, perhaps it was my selfishness that causes her to lose consciousness. Either way, I have to find her and all these nurses or polices is not helping.
Finally, after a month of being questions and integrations, with plenty of paper work I was finally release from the hospital. Well free from one of them, I was transfer to the Tokyo Hospital, where I found Hikaru unconscious. The monitors connected to her, monitoring her health, the beat was slowly, unbearably slow; it's as if she is barely clinging on to life.
"Excuse me, are you friends of Hikaru's?"
Am I? What am I to her? A friend? A teacher? "Yes I am."
"I didn't realize that Hikaru had friends, one older than she is."
From the time I spend with Hikaru I realized that her parents were hardly ever there. I observed the life style Hikaru lives in, she is self-sufficient in almost everything that she does, with no reliance on her parent what so ever. "Yes she does." My voice was cold, surprising even myself.
"I see, that she has told you."
"She didn't have to."
"While Hikaru is intelligent, she could have never gotten along with people her own age. I don't know what to tell her when she comes to me. I suppose I took the coward way out, but she did well by herself."
"She did."
"Her father and I have decided to take her off life support next month if she still not awake. Is difficult to see her living like this; relying on machine to sustain her life."
"You are just taking her life away just like that?"
"I'm not a murder."
"You might as well be. You are unfit to be a mother. I will support her myself if you are too much of a coward to do so."
For a year and a day I await.
For a year and a day I watch you sleep.
For a year and a day I wait for your to awake.
For a year and a day I await.
For a year and a day I wait till.
For a year and a day.
