A/N: Hello! I'm back! So how was my 3rd chapter? And before I forget, I want to thank LITSCHI and COLE ADAMS for always reviewing! They are my best supporters ever! )


Tokyo Medical Center

12:54 am

Takeshi, Aiko and their son Mamoru, sat on the chair beside Hitomi's bed. They all looked at her with sympathy. Her head was bandaged and hospital equipments were seen all over her body. Her breathing came slowly as if nearing death. Fearing that she might die any second, they never tried to leave her side.

No one tried to speak. They just sat and looked at Hitomi. Suddenly, out of their thoughts, a knock was heard from the door. Then for the very first time, someone spoke. It was Mamoru.

"I'll get it," he volunteered.

Mamoru Kanzaki; a teenaged boy who is over protective when it comes to her big sister. Mamoru is 18 years old. His hair reached his neck and is colored chocolate brown like that of his father's. Mamoru is a slim boy. He has brown eyes, sharp nose, and a round but thin face. He wore a blue shirt, brown baggy pants, and a pair of blue rubber shoes.

He stood then walked to the door. When he opened it, he saw a male and a female standing along side each other. Then the male opened his mouth and said,

"Good Morning young man! I'm Dr. Toshiyo Kanagawa and this is Dr. Ai Hagumi we are Ms. Kanzaki's doctors. We're here to inform you about her condition."

Mamoru replied, "Uhm…Hi! I'm Hitomi's brother, Mamoru. Please come in."

Mamoru stepped aside to let the doctors pass. Seeing that they were inside already, he closed the door. Then he turned to his parents and introduced Hitomi's doctors to them; he also introduced the doctors to his parents. After the brief introduction, Takeshi motioned for the doctors, as well as his son, to take a seat. Takeshi, who looked scared the moment the doctors went inside the room asked, "Tell me doctor, is my daughter really in a coma right now?"

Dr. Kanagawa and Dr. Hagumi could do nothing but nod at Mr. Kanzaki. They didn't know the right way to say it to them; knowing that it will make them upset.

The three Kanzaki's gasped.

"How long?" Aiko asked worriedly.

"Probably in a couple of months…or even a year," Dr. Kanagawa said.

Upon hearing this, Aiko sobbed; covering her face using her hands. Seeing that his wife cried, Takeshi walked to Aiko, sat beside her and hugged her gently.

"Is there anything you could do to help our daughter?" Takeshi asked.

"We're sorry Sir. But we've done everything to help her," Dr. Hagumi responded.

Silence settled in the room. The only thing that could be heard was Aiko's weeping.

Then Dr. Kanagawa said, "What's more is that your daughter lost some of her memories. So when she wakes up and remembers nothing about you, please don't force her to remember things she doesn't or else her head will ache so bad it can cause her to faint. Though, you can explain to her things she can not recall but, like I said, DON'T force her."

Aiko, who was crying, stood and said with a loud voice, "WHAT?! MY BABY LOST SOME OF HER MEMORIES?!"

"Yes Mrs. Kanzaki," Dr. Hagumi answered back.

Upon hearing Dr. Hagumi's reply, Aiko fell unconscious.

"Mrs. Kanzaki!" the doctors exclaimed at the same time.

Takeshi and Mamoru gasped at the sight.

Luckily, the father and son acted quickly, catching Aiko. They carried her to the coach near the flat screen television and laid her there. Then the doctors checked on her.

"Don't worry. Mrs. Kanzaki alright. Just let her rest for a while."

Mamoru and Takeshi let out a sigh of relief. Knowing that Aiko was alright, they all returned to their seats and continued the conversation.

"Mr. Kanzaki, when your daughter awakes, make sure she haves a healthy lifestyle," Dr. Kanagawa said.

"But doctor, how will it take for my daughter's memories to come back? Will she ever remember the things she forgot?" Takeshi asked worriedly.

"She will do it on her own; with or without the help of other people. Though, it will take time for her mind to remember the things she cannot recall," replied Dr. Hagumi.

"I see," Takeshi said.

All of a sudden, Mamoru said with a sad smile, "Look at the bright side dad. At least Hitomi's alive."

Takeshi just looked at his son and smiled…

"Mr. Kanzaki, I presume that Ms. Ichiwara already told you that Hitomi had an excessive bleeding right?" Dr. Hagumi said.

"Yes doctor. Why? Is something the matter?" asked Takeshi with a quivering voice.

"Well, it seems that we need someone, who also has a blood type of an O like Hitomi's, to willingly donate his or her blood for your daughter since our last stock of it here was already given to someone," Dr. Kanagawa said.

Mamoru and Takeshi sighed heavily, knowing that their blood type is AB; not to mention Aiko's also.

"How long will you find such a person?" Mamoru asked.

"We're aiming for a week only," Dr. Hagumi answered back.

"If that's the case then, I'll help you," Mamoru volunteered.

"Thanks for your help. We'll appreciate it. Just make sure the person you bring here is healthy, okay?"

"Sure, no problem," Mamoru answered coolly.

"Then it's settled. Any more questions gentlemen?" Dr. Kanagawa asked.

"Actually, you've answered all we want to know. Thanks for everything Dr. Kanagawa and Dr. Hagumi," Takeshi answered back, standing as he did so.

"If that's the case, we'll be going then. If you have any problems, just press the red button beside Hitomi's bed, and a nurse will immediately attend to your problems," Dr. Hagumi said.

Before the doctors left, Takeshi and Mamoru bowed at them. Returning the favor, the doctors bowed as well. Then the doctors were gone…


Takeshi sat beside Aiko's sleeping form. Then, he looked at her with admiration. He saw her hair covering her eyes. Her slightly open mouth and her cute, small yet sharp nose.

'Aiko's still beautiful even though she's not that young anymore,' he thought.

Suddenly he smirked and thought, "TAKESHI KANZAKI, YOU'RE A LUCKY MAN!"

All of a sudden, a knock was heard from the door.

"I'll get it," Mamoru volunteered even though he was watching television.

When he opened the door, he was surprised to see Mr. and Mrs. Albatou. He opened his mouth and said,

"Hi Mr. and Mrs. Albatou! What brings you here?"

Before Donkirk could reply, Mamoru, butt in and said,

"Oh, please come in."

So Mamoru moved aside to let the couple pass. Then, he closed the door seeing that his future father and mother in law are already inside the room. Turning to look at the two, he felt someone hug him. It was Takako. Then she said with a smile,

"Mamoru! How are you? It's been a long time since I've seen you. Look at how handsome you are now!"

"Yeah Mrs. Albatou. It's been quite a while. Hehe," Mamoru said with uneasiness, seeing that his future mother-in-law was hugging him for the first time.

When Takako broke the hug, Mamoru turned to Donkirk and said coolly with a cunning smile and with his two thumbs up,

"Hey Mr. Albatou! Looking good eh!"

"As if I never was! Haha!" Donkirk said then laughed heartily; making Takako and Mamoru laugh as well.

Takeshi, who was about to kiss Aiko's enticing lips no thanks to the loud laugh, looked to where the noise was coming from. He saw his son laughing with a male and a female. But it wasn't just a typical male and a female; it was his best friend and his best friend's wife.

Suddenly Aiko said opening her eyes slowly and looking up at her husband, "What's with the noise?"

Then Takeshi, who heard his wife's voice, looked down at Aiko and smiled, touching her face.

All of a sudden, the laughter stopped. The three walked to the coach where Aiko and Takeshi were.

Aiko seeing that her friends came to visit immediately sat up then stood; ready to greet them. Takeshi also stood, greeting his friends.

After the happy greeting, Mamoru asked Donkirk if Celena's with them. Donkirk replied,

"She's just next this room with Dilandau."

Hearing Donkirk's esponse, the three Kanzaki's looked up at each other and though at the same time, 'OH NO! I COMPLETELY FORGOT ABOUT DILANDAU!'

Then Takeshi said with sadness, "We're sorry. We were so worried about Hitomi we've completely forgot about Dilandau."

Takako and Donkirk answered with a smile, "It's okay. We understand."

After that, silence filled the room. Out of the blue Aiko said,

"Anyway, why don't we all have a seat? Then, we'll inform you about Hitomi's condition. And later you'll tell us about Dilandau's condition."

And so it was settled. But before the conversation started, Mamoru excused himself and told them he'll go visit Celena and Dilandau. When they saw Mamoru out of the room, the long conversation of the oldies began…


Meanwhile in Dilandau's room

When Celena heard a knock from the door she opened it and saw Mamoru. She was surprised to see him. Actually, it was quite a long time since she last saw him. Letting him inside, she saw how handsome he looked. Immediately disregarding the thought, they sat near Dilandau's bed and talked. First, they talked about how their lives were now. Then the topic changed when they talked about Hitomi and Dilandau's condition…
