"It's fine Luffy-ya don't cry." A tattooed hand wipes the tears from the face of the crying young captain.

"But Torao the blood. The blood won't stop flowing." Luffy yelled, panicking as he tried to put pressure on the deep stab wound on the older man's chest.

"Ssshh.. Don't cry." Law tried to console his lover with a small smile but it just make Luffy to cry harder.

"No! You're going to die. I don't want you to die. Chopper. I need to find Chopper." Luffy said in between his hiccups but before Luffy could find his doctor Law pulled his arm to stop him from going. He knows. He already knows that he will not last long that's why in his last breath he just wanted to see his beloved smile at him for the last time.

"Stop. It's no use. Just stay here with me." Law said quietly his voice were hoarse. "Don't cry Luffy-ya, please." Law pleaded. Luffy grasp Law's hand in his own, holding it tightly near his face as he tried to stop himself from crying but even so there are still tears streaming down his face.

"We will still meet again, Right? Because we promise. When the time comes I will find you. Don't forget that." Luffy said in all convictions in his eyes. Law couldn't help but smile bitterly. He really love him and doesn't want to leave him but it is his time now and not his title as the Surgeon of Death nor the Opi Opi no Mi could stop it.

"I promise. Don't make me wait too long." Law said jokingly. He got quiet all of a sudden making Luffy shake him in worry. He took a deep breath before mustering all of his energy to smile. "I love you, Luffy-ya" Luffy sniffs and wipe his tears away from his face and gave the older man his brightest grin he could muster.

"I love you too, Law." At the mention of his name Law carresses Luffy's cheek glad at the last moment of his breath Luffy's smile were the last thing he would see.

"See you." With that his hand went limp and the most anguish, heart breaking scream could be heard through the whole island.

"TORAOOOOO"

Luffy's POV

I can't believed it. Why? Why does Torao couldn't remember me. Even though he had promise. It's all the same question that keeps coming back in my mind everytime I speak with Torao. His answers to all of my question were court and on point and doesn't leave for any chance to prolong the conversation. I hate it. I hate it when I can't talk to Torao. The Torao in the past will always answer my question no matter how dumb it was but the Torao now were not like that. The small smiles he always gives only to me were gone replaced with a frown lips and a cold glare. What should I need to do to make you smile at me like that again?

"Luffy-ya. Focus." Torao growled at me in his cold voice, making me snapped at my thoughts and fumble the injection accidentally in my hand. Shit. I pricked the needle on the wrong vein making my patient yelps in pain.

"I'm sorry." I apologized to the patient who only smiled at me in understanding. I turned my head to look at Torao with a sheepish smile but the expression I saw at him makes me whip back my head on my patients arm. Scary. Very scary. His eyes that once looks at me affectionately were now glaring at me coldly and squintinazing my every mistakes and the dark bags under his eyes makes him looks more scary. It was unnerving to have those eyes observes you and not anyone. No wonder why our enemies in the past cowers everytime he gave them this looks. Even though Torao was scaring me at the moment I couldn't help but think that Torao is still handsome as he was in the past. I blushes at the thought and concentrate at the task at hand. Get a grip me. Stop daydreaming and concentrate. Show him that you're not just a clumsy newbie like he probabbly thinks of you. Make him think that you are more than that. Make him remember who you really are to him. Right. I took a deep breath as I chanted those phrase continuously in my mind.

A few mistakes and glared from Torao later it is now lunch break. My favorite time of the day. I went to my locker room to get my bento and proceed to the cafeteria where all the hospital staff eats. I scanned my eyes to search for any vacant place but found none instead of being dejected I snickered and search for Torao's place. I will get this chance to get close to Torao and make him remember me. A giggle left me at how brilliant I am after a seconds of searching I found where Torao was sitting and he was alone. 'Lucky.' I cheered in my mind and with a triumphant smile I walk to his place but before I could get near to him there are two figures that occupied the only vacant seat near Torao and started talking animately at him. I growled in frustration as the opportunity to get close with Torao slips up. I stomped my feet and started to search for any vacant seat again but it is all occupied until I noticed Robin eating alone in the corner. My mind wonder why she was there alone but shrugged it off and make my way at her place with a big smile.

"Rooobiiinn." I called at her rather loudly and everyone watches me as I took my seat in front of her. "Hi, Robin." I greeted her and in return Robin giggles at me. Then I noticed that some of the staff were whispering at each other. I look at them curiously. "Why are they whispering so suddenly?" I asked Robin with a tilt of my head. Robin just shook her head.

"Don't mind them." Robin said with a smile and I shrugged opening the lid of my bento my mouth waters as I saw what Ace packed for me. Meat. And it is all my favorite. "That's a lot of meat" Robin commented and I couldn't help but widen my grin.

"Right! Ace packed it all for me." I said proudly and for a moment Robin's eyes widen for a fraction before going softly.

"I see. You are with your brother. I'm happy for you." Robin said gently and I nodded at her with the same gentleness in my face. Those tragedies were all done now and it's all in the past.

"Yeah." Then we started eating. The whispers were still there but Robin said don't mind them so I just ignore them.

"Delicious. This meat were delicious. Here Robin taste it." I raised the fork where the piece of meat skewered to Robin and waited for her to open her mouth. Robin giggles and took the piece of meat. I remember that Robin always feed me her food in the past. I laughed at how the situation now were reversed and by just thinking all about it warms my chest.

"You're right." Robin hummed. "But still no one beats Sanji's cooking." At the mention of our cook my mouth started to water again. Robin is right Sanji's food were the most delicious he could ever taste.

"Right. I miss Sanji's food." I hummed, thinking all the kind of meat we bring him to cook. My musing were cut off by the whisper that grew loudly around us I look to my surrounding again and finally noticed that all the whispering were directed to us specially at me. Did I do something wrong? I tilted my head in confusion.

"Is it just me or the whispering were directed to us?" I asked Robin who in turn looks around and the people inside the cafeteria ceased their whispering as if nothing happened. Robin shooked her head and smile at me.

"Don't mind them. They just thought that you're trying to get close to me so that you can get a promotion or what so." She explained. My eyebrows raised in shock and confusion. Why would I ever do that? That's absurd.

"But we're already close and I don't want a promotion. I just want..." I said but the last sentence didn't come out of my mouth.

"Of course and they didn't know that. That's why I told you to don't mind them." Robin said in exhasparation as if it was a daily manner. Now that I think of it, to those who doesn't know my history with Robin will assume that I'm here licking my superior's ass to jump to the ladder of hierarchy but it's not like that why would I ever do that. That's absurd. I clicked my tongue at them for thinking such lowly thing. All I just want is to meet Torao again but looking at the situation now I'm kind of losing hope. What am I doing for these past few years? Is it really worth it to sacrifice everything just to fulfill a long forgotten promise? Robin who sense my change of mood patted my cheeks. "Luffy" Robin called to me gently I look up at him and saw her smiling at me gently an unshed tears in her eyes. "I know how you feel." She said and I look at her in confusion. "I know how it feels when your significant others doesn't remember you." She said in a quiet voice. I gasped at the realization.

"You mean Franky doesn't remember a thing?" I ask in shock. Robin just gave me a gentle smile before shaking her head.

"Kind of." She said and I stared at her twith confusion.

"What do you mean kind of?" I asked in return.

"You see when we first met he doesn't have any memories of his past or any of our crew while me remember everything. But somehow he told me that I'm kind of familiar, then with all the years I'm with him I help him to remember us and somehow along those years memories keep flashing to him but it wasn't clear it is still all a blurred image in his mind. What I was trying to say is don't give up. Eventually the time when Torao-kun recover his past memories will come and I'm here to help you and support you just like what you did when I completely lost the reason to live." The head nurse said with a gentle voice. Really. Robin, even in this time is like a mother that I never had and I never thought I needed.

"Thank you, Robin." I said as my lips quivered. Robin giggles and patted my head.

After the long hours of work my shift ended. I tried to approach Torao again but the man was pull to do another surgery and that was two hours ago which left me dissapointed then I went to bid farewell to Robin who still have paper works to finish. I left the hospital with a big pout on my face. What a day. I pulled the strap of my bagpack further to my back and start kicking my feet randomly.

"Bad day?" A deep voice asked, looking up my pout turned to smile as I saw who it was. He was wearing a black suit and his long curly blond hair were framing his handsome face.

"Sabo!" I called gleefuly at the man standing near the entrance of the hospital. I ran to him and glomped him, wrapping my legs around his body and my arms around his neck in return Sabo catches me, stumbling slightly.

"Easy there." He said to me, laughing. I just nuzzled my face at crook of his neck. "It's really a bad day huh." He said to me as he tried to balance us. He sounded worried because he knows when I get clingy it was because something happened. "Want to talk about it?" He asked after a minute of standing I unwrapped my legs and arms around him and stood beside him and stared at him for a moment. Sabo is my sworned brother in the past and even in this time. He was working at our company under my father and the suit he was wearing were their uniform. My father runs a private security guard agency. It is where known people hired a security guard for protection and since it deals with the safety of people my father, Dragon only hires the most skilled body guards and Sabo were the most requested because of his undefeatable skill. Sabo and Ace were classmate during their elementary until college years. Funny how playful Lady Faith was making me meet my once family from the past and makes them my family again in this time. Suddenly my eyes widen when realization hits me.

"Sabo." I said in shocked. Sabo were one of those who doesn't remember their past like Franky and Torao but with the help of Ace bit by bit he recovered it. My brother look at me in question.

"Yes?" He asked, chuckling.

"How did you recover your past memories?" I asked eagerly, making me giddy in anticipation. Sabo scratched his cheeks sheepishly.

"Err I don't actually remember it clearly. It was all thanks to Ace." Sabo said with a blush and my mouth form an 'o' then I clutched Sabo's hand in mine and entwining our fingers together.

"Yosh! Let's go home." I announced and practically dragged him. My mind were occupied with the thoughts on how to make Torao remembers me that's why I didn't feel the burning gaze behind our retreating back specially at my and Sabo's entwined fingers.
