Hey Everyone! I'm sorry if I don't update very often… Busy looking for work and job interviews so… I don't have much time… Anyways, here's chapter 4! I have the end of the story figured out, I just don't know how the journey will be to get there… Anyways,, Enjoy and…. R&R!
Oh! I want to thank y'all for reading and reviewing my story.!
"Okay, keep your eyes on my finger." The doctor ordered Misaki, over an hour after she woke up and found out that she can't move her legs and can't remember anything in her life, the doctor arrive to check up on her. "Okay, good." The doctor turned to face the people anxiously waiting for the diagnosis. "She's suffering from post-traumatic stress which is very common to people who experienced what she went through. Her memory loss is definitely caused by the impact of her fall. We'll run some tests after a few days when she's well rested to figure out how long she'll be like this. I'll be back for routine checkups tomorrow do you have any questions?"
"Can I talk to you outside doctor?" A man who was called "Shoichi" by her 'mother' asked the doctor. The doctor nodded and they went outside.
Her 'mother' sat on the chair beside her bed, she looks like she's looking for the right words to say, "How are you feeling?" she caressed her hands.
She started to shiver as she started to talk, "Devastated. I feel so bad about my legs, I don't remember anything but I feel like I needed to be somewhere, and if my legs aren't working I won't be able to go there."
Minako caressed her forehead, "Shhh… We'll find a solution for that okay? For now, why don't you take a rest." She helped her rest on the headboard and positioned the pillow behind her.
She looked at her mother, "I may not remember anything but I believe you when you said that you're my mother, 'cause I look just like you. Those guys I'm not sure who they are." Her gaze flew to the two men in the opposite side of the room. The man with emerald eyes, blonde hair and lots of pheromones is leaning on the wall, while the man with blue-grey eyes and jet black hair is sitting on the couch.
"That's your uncle Yuki sitting on the couch, the one who went outside with the doctor is also your uncle, Shoichi. And the man stan-"
"I'm a good friend of yours Misa-chan, we go to the same school, and have part-time jobs at the same place." Usui intruded. He wanted to tell her so bad that they have a much more intimate relationship than being bestfriends but a yesterday his grandfather suddenly paid him a visit and gave him a very clear message.
-=Flashback=-
"I heard that you are visiting a lady friend at the hospital." His grandfather asked him. His grandfather is standing by his apartment window looking outside. "You know how I feel about you having a romantic relationship with someone at your still incapable age. You still have a lot to learn to take over the company and a romantic relationship will only pull you down."
"Even if she's also from a well-known family?" he asked, normally heads of the family will be happy to have their heir to be coupled with another person from a rich family.
"I don't care that she's from the Ayuzawa clan," so he knew Usui thought, "She's just a stray cat! She didn't have the proper upbringing as anyone from our world." those words made his blood boil, he wanted to get his hands on his grandfather but he couldn't, "She knows nothing about our world, she probably won't qualify to take over their business. You can befriend her if you want while she is learning, but if I find out that you're having a romantic relationship with her while she still does not deserve to be in our world, I can pull strings to turn their world upside down so think your actions through." His grandfather walked towards his apartment door, but before he stepped out, he looked at Takumi with threatening eyes, "Or you'll be guilty for making the life of someone you care about miserable." Those were his last words, and then one of the old man's bodyguards pulled the door shut.
With his fists clenched, teeth gritted, and piercing emerald eyes, he was left alone in the middle of his apartment. "Just you wait, when I've proven myself, I will not only be a proper heir but I will surpass you and I'll definitely change the rotten ways of the Walker family. And you will never be able to lay a finger on the woman I love."
-=End of Flashback=-
And now, he is hell bent on not just being the suitable heir but also on surpassing his family. He wants his life to be better, he wants to be free from his family's claws so that he and Misaki can be together in peace, without the worry of his family ruining everything.
He saw Misaki look at him, "I'm bestfriends with a guy with a lot of pheromone like you? You have got to be kidding me!" Misaki rolled her eyes. Still the same, he thought.
He thought of teasing her just like the old days, "I also can't believe it you know, being bestfriends with someone as hot-headed as you." He saw Misaki's eyes widen, "But you can't separate yourself from me, always asking me to help you with school work, and at our part-time job. I can't be so heartless as to drive you away."
Misaki blushed and rose from leaning on the headboard and pointed at Usui, "You egoistic… pervert! Hmp…" Misaki rested on the headboard again arms crossed on her chest, "I don't have the energy to argue with an egoistic, pervert that excretes crazy amounts of pheromone like you."
"You see Misaki," Yuki joined the youngsters' exchange of endearing words, "If you're not as close as bestfriends you wouldn't be able to talk the way you just did with each other."
Misaki took a deep breath, "I know uncle, I just can't… Argh! Really? I have a pervert for a bestfriend?" she raised her arms in the air like she's questioning someone above.
"How are you certain that he's a pervert?" Yuki asked her.
"Because! He excretes pheromones even if it's unnecessary and he wears that teasing smile that I don't understand what for."
The door opened, "For someone who has paralyzed legs and doesn't remember anything you're pretty loud." Shoichi re-entered the room.
"It's actually my way of forgetting my current situation but thanks for reminding me uncle." She said sarcastically.
His uncle's eyes narrowed, "I heard that you're a man-hater but I didn't expect to be treated the same way as your father."
Her eyes widened upon realizing her rude action, "I'm sorry uncle, it's just that the feeling of having to go somewhere is not leaving me. I feel as if my life depended on it." She looked at the window.
Everyone in the room knew what she was talking about but they kept their mouth shut. They're surprised that Usui didn't tell her about the letter but they can't interfere with his decisions. Something's bothering him and maybe that's why he can't tell her. It's best to let him decide when to tell her.
Well, Shoichi has a plan to make her niece feel better, "Misaki, I talked to the doctor." He stood beside Minako, "I had a friend who is a great surgeon and works for one of the top hospitals in the United States." Upon hearing the foreign country, Usui glared at Shoichi, "He said that he could make you walk again. We have to leave immediately though because if you don't undergo the operation soon, you will not be able to walk again. So I told the doctor that after they figure out how long your amnesia will last, we will fly to the U.S."
Misaki's face brightened, "Really? I'll be able to walk again?"
Shoichi held her hand, "Yes, so you'll have to rest and regain your strength so that you'll be fit to travel okay?"
"Yes! Mom, can you help me lie down completely? I feel tired from talking to my alien bestfriend." She said mockingly. Her mother assisted her to lie down.
"Oh how sweet of you Misa-chan." Usui teased.
"Oh c'mon! Can't you just let me rest in peace?" Misaki snapped.
"Don't die on me yet Misa-chan." He teased again.
"Argh!" Misaki pulled the sheets and covered her head.
"Now, now. Cut it out you two. Just rest now Misaki." Shoichi faced Minako, "I'm gonna have to leave to finish some work and arrange for her travel. Yuki will be coming with me. We have a lot to do."
"Okay Shoichi, Thank you so much." Minako said, teary-eyed.
Shoichi and Yuki walked towards the door, upon passing Usui, Shoichi asked him to go outside, and Usui followed.
"I know this is going to be hard for you, but I want what's best for her." Shoichi started.
"So do I. I wouldn't get in the way of her getting better. Being far away from her is going to be hard but, I'd rather have that than let her suffer." Usui explained. "Besides, I have a lot of work to do myself, I need to surpass my family to gain control of my life."
Yuki joined the conversation, "As expected, your shrewd grandfather wouldn't let you be with Misaki huh? You know we could arrange for—"
"No. I will exceed my family on my own, if not, then I'm not worthy to gain control over them." He declared with a determined look in his eyes.
Shoichi put a hand on his shoulder and said, "Well then, go and be the fine man that none in your family can be. I will not let you have her 'til I'm sure that she'll be safe." Then whispered to his ear, "I really like you for my niece so don't mess this up." then he started walking down the hall with Yukishiro.
"Wait!" Usui shouted, "When… when will I see her again?"
Shoichi turned around with an apologetic look on his face. "When the two of you can be together without any threat whatsoever. I'm sorry but it's better for you to see each other again when your situation is better. We'll teach her everything and she'll soon be worthy for your family. Just have faith in the two of you. I believe that you are for each other." Then he turned his back and they walked away.
"She's worthy for me that's what's matters." He whispered and he entered Misaki's hospital room. He's gonna make the most of their time left together.
Well, what do you think? Please R&R! Very much appreciated!
