"Sora! No don't leave…me…" Matt was on the floor clinging to the bed and crying. Faith helped him up, and to her surprise he didn't push away or anything. He was actually co-operating. Faith looked at the clock that hung on the wall. It was time to take her leave. She turned around, but Matt grabbed her by the arm. "Wh-where are you g-g-oing?" Faith's lip trembled. "I…I'll be right back, Matt. I'm not going anywhere." Matt reluctantly let her go. "You-you-you're not l-l-leaving me?" Faith shook her head.
"Of course not! I told you, Matt, I'm going to help you. I'll be back in just a sec…will you let me go? Please…" She pleaded with her eyes. "O-okay…" Faith sighed happily and turned around to head out the door. And who should she smack her head into just as she turned the corner of the hall…
"Hey! Watch where you're-" she looked up at who the lucky person was going to go home with a red handmark on his face. (yes, my temper gets me into loads of trouble-.-) "Hello Ms. Kai…" "Mr. Z-zumi! I, um, was just-uh-you see, well…" "I saw you earlier in Matt's room, and I've decided something." "and what might that be sir?" She replied rather hastily. If he had to fire her, he didn't have to be so sadistic. (well it seems sadistic to me!)
He winced at her attitude. "I've decided to let you stay on the case…for now. But you keep that tongue of yours in check…or I might reconsider." And he walked off, not noticing there was toilet paper stuck to his shoe. (matt: that's random…Me: shut up.) Faith laughed all the way back to her office. She packed her bag and then headed back to Matt's room. Matt was sitting on the chair she usually sat on, and was looking at something.
"Whatcha got there Matt?" she asked him. Matt jumped off the chair and got in a figting stance. "Don't touch me!" Faith raised an eyebrow. "S-s-sorry. I…thought you were someone else." He sat back down on the chair and continued to gaze a small object in his hand. Faith cleared her throat. She wanted him to answer her earlier question. Matt looked up and she saw he was crying again. "Y-You want to see?" Faith was unsure of wether to say yes or no, so she just the safest thing she could think of. "If you'd like…" Matt nodded.
She walked over and looked over his shoulder. It was a small picture, like those wallet sized ones. It seemed old, for it was bent at the edges and there was a rip in the middle. "Thi-this used to be a picture of…of…m-me and…S-sora." Faith looked at it again. The half he had was of himself, against a black star-dotted backdround. He looked younger and his face…glowed. Around his neck was someone's arm. Faith figured it was Sora's, even though the only part there was her arm. (yeah I'm smart like that ^_^ seto: -.-)
"I…t-t-tore it up wh-wh-when she…she…she…" He started to sob even harder. His tears stained the picture and it fluttered to the ground as he lifted himself up to bed. Faith picked it up and looked at it again. She knew what she would have to do. The only way to cure Matt was to find 'Sora' whoever she was. She wished Matt had the other half, but she was positive he didn't. She heard a soft snore and realized the hospital would be closing and she had to go home herself. She tucked the picture into her bag and stole one last look at Matt and walked out.
~*~Next Day~*~
Faith rubbed her temples. She knew Sora was a common name. She didn't know anything else about the Sora she was looking for…except maybe that her arm was slender and had a light tan, but that didn't help much. Every time she tried to ask Matt, he'd cry and, sometimes, get angry. He was showing improvement, mind you, but it wasn't enough. Well, I'll have to keep trying…for Matt…she sighed and pulled out the only picture of Matt she had. She did want to help him, but she knew she probably wouldn't be too happy after that. Heck, she'd probably need therapy herself. (mwahaha! I need therapy now! …the grasshoppers are after me!)
She smiled as she gazed at the side of Matt she hadn't seen, in something that wasn't a picture, yet; the side that people thought he would never show again. She wiped a tear from her face and went back to making phone calls and looking up addresses. After about, what seemed like 500 attempted calls, her watch beeped.
It was time to visit Matt. He needed to eat. Matt had basically lost the will to do anything anymore, except cry and shout at times. She filed all her files, tucked her chair in, and went towards the kitchen.
~*~Matt's room ~*~
"Open…" Matt opened his mouth and Faith gently poured the dripping soup from the spoon into his mouth. Matt put his lips back together and swallowed. He opened it again and this repeated for about 15 minutes. At the last spoon, she accidently let a little too much of the soupy mixture in his mouth and it started to drip from the sides.
Faith took a kleenex from the table and dabbed at the side of his mouth, soaking the liquid into the tissue. Matt brought his hand to hers and held it. Faith blushed and looked down. "Th-thank you." He manged to say. Faith felt like crying. "No problem…" she replied silently. He let go and then they looked at each other at the same time. (yes this is the part where their eyes meet and you all go 'awww'. matt and seto: * anime fall *)
Their eyes met and Faith noticed just how blue and soft they were, just like in the picture. Before you experience any more emotions, get your butt out of here! She scolded herself.
"Y-you have to go don't you?" He asked her when she started to pack her things and put the bown and spoon in a nearby sink. Faith nodded so lightly, it'd barely even be considered a nod. Matt understood and disappered under his blanket. That was the way he said good-bye. Faith grabbed another tissue and used it on her eyes while walking away.
~*~Later that night at Faith's apartment~*~
"Hello? Yes, may I speak to Sora?" "Sorry, there is no Sora here. You have the wrong number." "Oh, excuse me. Thanks, bye." She hung up. She took out her red pen and her notepad and crossed out another number. "Well, no Sora there either." This was going to take forever. She looked at all the crossed out numbers and the ones she still had yet to call. The un-crossed ones outnumbered the rest. Some weren't even phone numbers. Some were email adresses and others were addresses. She emailed some of the ones she had, but half of them didn't respond or they weren't the Sora she was looking for.
She decided to wait until tomorrow, her day off, to go and drive around as many of these addresses as she possibly could.
~*~Next day~*~
A black Toyota Camera pulled in front of a driveway with roaring lion sculptures. Man…nice house. She rang the bell and waited patiently for someone to answer. An old man opened the gate and greeted her. "Yes?" "Erm…he-hello. I wanted to know, um, if someone named Sora…lives here? Or lived here?" "Miss, I must say I've lived in this house since I was 2 and not once has anyone even mentioned the name of Sora."
Faith sighed. "Thank you very much. I apologize for wasting your time sir." She waved and got into the driver's seat. This is almost hopeless, but for Matt, I'll keep going. (seto: would you do the same for me?…me: yes now shush!)
Now she was at an apartment. A big welcome mat lay on the floor before the door, (that so rhymes.) but it was old and said 'we me'. She knocked on the door, because it seemed there was no bell to ring. No answer. She knocked again, waited. She decided to knock one last time when a neighbor came out from the door behind her.
"Are you looking for someone?" "No, I mean Yes…er…sort of. Do you know if 'Sora' lives here?" She pointed to the door she had been rattling her knuckles on. "Or if anyone lives here, for that matter…" The man replied, "That one? No, it's been empty for weeks. In fact, I think it's available for rent. You interested?" "Uh, thanks but no thanks." She hung her head in disappointment.
House after house after apartment after condo after house after condo after house, and still no sign of …anything! "This is too hard. I'm sorry Matt, but I can't bring back Sora." She cried out to…well no one in particular, since there was no one around.

PS
The title 'Kahani pyar ki' Well it's a show I watch and it has a bunch of stories in it and in english it means 'a story of love' and so there was a story similar to this in there and so I just copied the title. Damn I need a disclaimer
I don't own Kahani Pyar ki. It belongs to Nomi Khan, (hey but we have the same last name…hee hee)
