Undesired Reaction
A/N: Thanks for your reviews! I do realize I made a few mistakes. Special thanks to xXCrimson-SakuraOo for pointing out one of the most stupidest mistake.
Prologue Part 2: Helpless
"Mikan, forget about him. There are plenty of fish in the sea." Sumire tried to comfort Mikan, "Natsume wasn't worth your time."
"No. He was different -" Mikan tried to continue saying positive things, "Sweet, funny, handsome," She took a halt, "But I guess it was too good to be true."
Anna and Nonoko tried the best they could to ease Mikan, but it would be reasonable if she had still loved him. Hotaru had remained quiet throughout the process, Hataru knew bringing him up would hurt Mikan. Hotaru dropped off Sumire first, then Anna, Nonoko and finally, it was time to drop Mikan off.
When they arrived, Mikan opened the door, and paused.
"Thanks Hotaru." Mikan almost forgot. She left the passenger seat and closed the door. Hotaru herself parked her car and ran toward. She figured a best friend would help Mikan the most. The keyword Hotaru didn't bring herself to say was Natsume.
Mikan turned to Hotaru and told her she was fine and that she could leave. Defiant Hotaru insisted on staying, and in the end, Hotaru had gotten her way. No surprise.
They entered the quaint, cute little house Mikan and her grandfather lived in.
"Jii-chan!" Mikan exclaimed, completely forgetting about how she felt earlier, "I'm back!"
"Oh Mikan, welcome back." He faintly managed to say. Mikan was surprised, whenever she had gotten home from school, or any other, her Jii-chan would always welcome her with a tight fatherly hug. Mikan then became suspicious.
"Where are you?" She asked, looking around the house.
"Oh, just in my room." He responded. Mikan rushed to his room, only to find it was locked.
"Jii-chan? Why is the door closed?!" No response. She kicked the door open only to see that Jii-chan was sick. It wasn't a cold, it was far more serious. He laid in his bed, glaringly sick. Mikan's eyes widened. By the time Mikan kicked the door, Jii-chan already fainted. What Mikan understood is that Jii-chan spent a great deal of energy even just talking. Mikan, sobbing her heart out, turned to her best friend who followed her. Hotaru was also alarmed.
"Hotaru! We need to rush him to the hospital!" She wailed. Hotaru carried Jii-chan to her car, waiting for Mikan to enter.
"I knew I shouldn't have left." Mikan whispered in her grief.
Hospital Room
"Miss..." The nurse couldn't remember her name, "Ah. Sakura." She remembered, "I'm sorry. It appears your grandfather can't be cured so easily. He was sick for far too long without any medicine."
"Where is he?! I wanna see him!" Mikan urgently requested.
"Right this way." The nurse calmly directed her to Jii-chan's hospital room. Mikan hurried to feel her only family member's hands.
"Jii-chan!"
"Mikan. I don't have much time left." Jii-chan muttered softly, the heart monitor held Jii-chan's heart rate. He was alive, but barely.
"Don't say that Jii-chan!" Mikan protested.
"Listen, Mikan. You're gonna have to go on you're own now. You're gonna grow up to be a beautiful fine woman. You don't need me. I'm sorry Mikan. I love you." Jii-chan tried his best to make sure Mikan was able to understand him. The heart monitor indicated that Jii-chan... Was dead.
Mikan shed bitter tears continuously. She grasped her dead Jii-chan's hands. Hotaru quickly rushed to Mikan and embraced her firmly.
"What.. Am... I.. Gonna.. Do... Now?!" She cried to fill the emptiness, hiccuping before another word.
Hotaru let go of her embrace and held Mikan by the shoulders, "Its alright Mikan. You have me." She reassured.
2 months later...
After Jii-chan passed away, Hotaru offered to let her stay in her house. Hotaru lived by herself with a spare bedroom. Mikan had accepted the offer and now living as a room mate with Hotaru. It was already August. 2 months after Natsume and Jii-chan. August 20th Mikan had not been feeling well. Hotaru took Mikan to the hospital to find out what was wrong with her.
"Well miss," The nurse continued, "It appears you're pregnant. 2 months pregnant."
Mikan's jaw dropped.
7 months later...
"PUSH MIKAN, PUSH!" The doctor exclaimed. Mikan pushed her hardest.
After 3 hours in excruciating pain, the end result was worth it.
"It's a boy!" The doctor revealed, He handed the baby to Mikan, "What are you gonna name him?"
Mikan looked at his crimson-brown eyes, smiling to see what named would be best suited.
"Youichi," She smiled, "Youichi Sakura H."
