Chapter 3

Golden eyes opened from the sound of the wind, the window was open and the curtain had been blow. The boy looked around to see his surrounding and saw that he was in a bed and not just any bed, it was a bed of a hospital. He then suddenly remembered what had happened, his team and coach were heading toward a baseball match when a truck hit them, but here he was alive and well, for most part. He rubbed his eyes but noticed that something was on his right eye.

"An eye-patch." He mumbled. The door to his room opened and the first people he saw was his loving parents and grandfather, they had a relief look on their face. His mother ran toward him and hugged him.

"I'm so glad my baby is alright." She cried, Sawamura could tell his mother was really worn out. His father took hold of Sawamura's hand and smiled at the young man.

"I'm glad to see you safe and sound." His grandfather spoke, it looked like all three of them were exhausted but then something hit him.

"Where's everybody?" Sawamura asked. When he said those words there were hesitation on the three adult's face, something wasn't right and Sawamura didn't like the way the three were acting.

"Where is everybody?" He repeated his words.

"Listen to me and calm down." His father said. His father didn't know how to explain to his son.

"I'll tell him." His grandfather stared right into Sawamura's eyes without looking away. The old man had a hard time saying it as well but he had tell him if he didn't then the boy would kept on asking. "Your friends have died in the accident. Your coach and you were the only one who survived. Coach Izumi isn't able to move at the moment and you only lost sight of one of your eye."

Sawamura wished that his grandfather was lying, it wasn't true. He was just with his friends, laughing like they always did. This couldn't be happening. He got out of bed and shoved his parents away but the moment he got out he fell to the floor, the shock made him unable to stand.

"Eijun." His mother called out and was about to go help her son up but her husband stopped him.

"He needs to let it out." He whispered into her hear. The mother and father didn't like the sight of their only son but there was nothing they could do to help and his grandfather had never seen his grandfather cry so much. The tears kept coming out from Sawamura without stopping.

"This has to be a lie!" Sawamura cried out so loud maybe the whole hospital heard his cry of pain.

"Where is their bodies?" Sawamura asked. He didn't want to see them lying dead but he had to see them to know that they had really died.

"You want to see them." His mother was a bit shocked by her son's words.

"Yes." He said with his fist together in fear.

His parents took them to the area where the doctors examine the dead before taking them to their family.

"I like to be alone." He said.

His parents, grandfather and the doctor left the boy there. Sawamura stared at each one of his friend's body, his eyes never looking away, he touched their facing and it was so cold. Tears kept coming out every time he looked at them, it was a pain to see them but he now knew that his parents had been telling the truth and that his friends had died leaving him alone.

All the promises they had made wasn't going too kept anymore. All the hard practice they did was for nothing. He couldn't do it anymore, there was no way that he could continue without them.

"What should I do now?" Sawamura felt to his knee and kept sobbing. Then he heard the door to the room open and saw his coach there, he was in a wheelchair.

"Coach Izumi." Sawamura said.

"So you finally woke up, huh." He said. Sawamura ran toward the coach and hugged him the tears never leaving him. The coach hugged Sawamura back tight, he too was sad for the loss and now he couldn't do anything with the way his legs no longer moved the way he wanted.

Life went back to normal but Sawamura wasn't the cheerful boy that he was anymore. He didn't play baseball anymore and he didn't attend school. He stayed home most of the time like a shut in. His parents couldn't do anything to help their son beside be there for him. Sawamura did go out most of the time just for a walk and beside that there was nothing he did. The loss of his friends were a huge blow for him as if time stopped moving for him.

"Eijun why don't we go out to shop?" His mother asked his son but the brunet nodded his head as always.

"Let's leave him alone." His father said.

His parents and grandfather left the teenager alone in the house while they went and did some shopping. Sawamura shouldn't have been cold to them since it was the last time he ever saw them again.

It was around the evening and his parents and grandfather hadn't come home yet. The brunet was started to get worried and wonder why they weren't home yet, it was getting late. That's when the house phone rang and he was sure it was them calling him but he was so wrong when he answered it.

"Is this Sawamura's son?"

"Yes."

"I'm sorry to inform you but your parents and grandfather have got into an accident." Sawamura dropped the phone and felt his knee go weak as the words repeated in his head like a mantra.

The next days the sadness never left Sawamura, the tears flow in him once again. This time worse maybe because it was his own family. He was starting to everything was his fault since he was still alive yet everybody around him wasn't.

He lived alone now with nobody around. Coach Izumi came to check on the boy sometimes, his hair had grown longer yet the boy didn't even want to cut it, the flatness of his hair that Izumi could tell. He wanted help the teenager but what can a former coach do without his legs.

The boy was a mess and there was nobody that could help him. That's when he remember something the team that they had practice match with before, Seidou, maybe if he went there it would help the brunet since they seemed really close.

"Are you still staring at your phone?" Kuramochi asked, Miyuki and he were in class together and every day the catcher would stare at his phone hoping for a message.

Sawamura hadn't reply to any of his messages for a few months and Miyuki was wondering what was up with the brunet. He missed exchanging messages with the southpaw pitcher from Nagano.

"Maybe he got tired out you."

"Me? You must be kidding who in their right mind would be tired of somebody like me."

"You bastard!"

But still it worried Miyuki, he wanted to see Sawamura again and see how things were in Nagano.

On his way to practice Takashima pulled Miyuki to talk about a certain topic.

"What is it Rei-chan?" He asked.

"You remember Sawamura Eijun, right."

"Of course I do. Does this have something to do with him?"

"It does in more way then one." Rei explained to Miyuki about what happened in Sawamura's life and how he wasn't the same anymore.

"Is that why he stopped messaging me?"

"Why are you telling me all this?"

"Because he's coming to Seidou but he won't be joining the team. He will just be watching and I would like him to room with you since I recall that you two really got along."

"If you can call me teasing him get along."

Coach Kataoka explained the same thing to the rest of the team in practice. They were also shock to hear about something horrible happen to a cheerful boy they knew.

The arrival of Sawamura Eijun shocked the whole team. He looked totally different from he did the last they had all saw him. He had cut the long hair that had grown in Nagano since Izumi kept on complaining yet his short brown hair was still flat and there was still that white eyepatch on his right eye. Also could tell the gloomy aura around the teenager.

"This is the Sawamura, right." Kuramochi mumbled.

"He looks nothing like he did before." Haruichi said.

"Miyuki Kazuya." Sawamura spoke. Even his spoke sounded gloomy. It was hard for everybody to believe this was the same guy as before.

"What is it?" Miyuki walked in front of Sawamura.

"I heard that you tried messaging me and calling. Sorry but my phone got broken."

"It's fine." Miyuki smiled. "Let me help you with your luggage." Miyuki took the suitcase that Sawamura was holding and headed to his room. Sawamura followed the second year to the dorm.

"Wow, Miyuki-senpai took care of that well." Toujou said.

"It's because Miyuki is perfect when acting." Kuramochi sighed.
