Seraphina Hall
"Ahh, Hanaori-san. I'm glad you came." Dr. Kitamura happily said. She was just going to call Kotoha. She wanted to give her advice, to come and do check up today. When Kotoha was just a little girl, she usually accompanied Mitsuba in the hospital. And both Kotoha and Mitsuba met her often. Nowadays, who knows that when Dr. Kitamura opened her own clinic in Kyoto, she met again with the grown up Kotoha. Plus she's now pregnant.
"Yeah. You didn't know how glad myself too." Kotoha answered, Dr. Kitamura instantly smiled. Kotoha looks better than the last time she visited her clinic with Mitsuba, and when she knew that she is pregnant. At that time, Dr. Kitamura can barely saw how frustrated and shocked Kotoha was. She can conclude that the baby is an accident between Kotoha and someone she doesn't know. It is none of her business anyway. Dr. Kitamura could also saw the possibility that Kotoha might abort the baby. But everything changes when this morning, her assistance, Akira, told her that Kotoha came.
"Well, just to diffuse the tension, plus I already knew you since you were just a little girl, may I now call you Kotoha?" Kotoha happily nodded. Since she's just a ten years old girl, she's already regard her as her mother. Dr. Kitamura is so kind to her and her sister. "Alright, Kotoha let's do some routine check up."
"Umm, Ok." Kotoha replied nervously. This is the first time she takes the routine test after all. Dr. Kitamura stands from her chair, told Kotoha to follow her. She led her into another room from the waiting room which is separated by a door.
Kotoha could see a examining bed that she believe are not going to be friendly with her back. A desk is situated in the corner. A computer sat on the desk. A rolling chair is set in the back of the desk. While two chairs is set in front of the desk. In another side of the room, there is a shelf that is full with a lot of scared equipment according to Kotoha. It scared her. Fortunately, two things besides the shelf does not scared her a lot. A scale and a sink.
Dr. Kitamura can see how afraid Kotoha is, so she tried to calm her down. "Ohh don't worry. The test won't hurt you, my dear." She said. Kotoha replied with a small smile. She didn't believe that the test won't hurt.
Dr Kitamura once again led her to sat on the examination bed. Then, the doctor pulled out a needle. Kotoha's face turned blue. She hates this part. "Dr. Kitamura, I'm afraid." She honestly stated. Dr. Kitamura with a warm smile put down the needle. Softly she put her right hand on Kotoha's hair. Caressed it gently.
"Don't worry. This is the worst part. After that, everything just gonna be alright." Once again she tried to calm her down. But Kotoha still looks afraid. She almost cry. "Relax, Kotoha. For your baby." That words somehow give Kotoha strength. And at the end, she didn't refuse when Dr. Kitamura patted her arms.
The Twist Of Faith
Chapter 4
Takeru glanced around. Then he looks down to the paper on his hand. This is the right place. The simple wooden house in front of him is Kotoha's house. He doubt to take a step. He hurt Kotoha too much. But that's why he's here. To clarify everything. After gathered all of his courage, the Shinken Red finally walked to the house. He knocked the door.
Tok… Tok… Tok
"A moment please." A female voice that is definitely not Kotoha's voice answered him from inside if the house. A moment later, the door opened. A woman with black straight hair stand in front of him. Her eyes is so much like Kotoha's. "Can I help you?" asked the woman
Takeru shortly bowed then answered. "My name is Shiba Takeru and I need to see Kotoha." The woman in front of her gasped. Her eyes showed how she shocked. She glared at Takeru with an unbelievable expression.
"Pardon me, Tono-sama. But please go home." And with that words, the woman moved to close the door. But Takeru pulled back the door at once. The woman power can't beat the power of the leader of Shinkenger of course.
"Wait. I need to meet her. I need to see her." Takeru begged but his tone getting deep.
"You wanted to meet my sister? Ohh what unbelievable moments, my honorable Tono-sama." The woman cannot control her emotion. And Takeru can saw it through her eyes. Wait a second. The woman said Kotoha is her sister, which is mean that this woman is Hanaori Mitsuba, Kotoha's big sister.
"What are you talking about? Is it wrong to see her?"
"Well, let me think. After you slept with my sister and then you just break up with her like she's just a worthless piece of junk and now you come to see her?" Takeru bent his head. He knew what Mitsuba said is true. He should not even dare to see Kotoha again. But he still in love with her. He can't just leave her.
"You don't understand what happened, Hanaori Mitsuba. So don't you dare to judge me." Takeru finally dare to answer. Eventough he answered with a very low voice. But Mitsuba can still heard it. And that makes her smiled sarcastically.
"But I do understand what happened, Tono-sama. I even more understand than you. All you know is just Kotoha is your toy. But what I know is, you slept with my sister and then break up with her, threw her away when she is pregnant with your child!" Mitsuba yelled. Her emotion is now out of control.
Takeru felt like someone has just stab him with a sharp knife right into his chest. He's pretty sure that his ears are still function well. So he heard clearly that Mitsuba just said that Kotoha is pregnant with her child. "Kotoha is pregnant?" he asked with a low tone.
Mitsuba then realized how stupid she is. Damn. She just said that. She just said her sister biggest secret just a few minutes after she met with the father of the baby. Takeru seized Mitsuba's shoulder tight. So tight until Mitsuba can feel that her body could be crushed right now.
"Answer me, Hanaori Mitsuba, my vassal. Is it true that Kotoha is pregnant with my child?" Takeru tighten his seize on Mitsuba shoulder. Mitsuba heavily breathe. She cannot lie anymore. She's already wet. Why she's not swim? She's already stated her sister secret, why not have a talk with Takeru?
Slowly Mitsuba released his hand from her shoulder. "It is true. Kotoha is now pregnant with your child, Tono-sama."
Takeru cannot feel his breathe. He didn't know that he left Kotoha who is pregnant with his own flesh and blood. He felt that he is the most useless man in the whole world. So that's why Mitsuba so angry to see him. He couldn't imagine how angry Kotoha will if she met him.
"She's one month pregnant, Tono-sama. But you don't have to worry. The truth is, she decided to keep the baby and didn't ask you to show your responsibility." Mitsuba tried t calm him down. But Takeru getting anger.
"What do you mean by 'don't worry'? I break up with her while she is pregnant with my child and she keep that as a secret for me. While it is not my choice to leave her. I wanted to be with her, but I didn't able to. It is not my choice." He screamed aloud in front of Mitsuba face.
"Not your choice to leave her? Tono-sama is there's something you want to tell me?"

Kotoha breathed slowly. She relieved. All of her test today is over. She is now sitting on the examination table. While Dr. Kitamura seems busy with a lot of papers in front of her table. The papers is Kotoha's files. A minutes later after she finished the files, she raised her head to met Kotoha's face. "Now, Kotoha. The examination result shows that you are five weeks pregnant and you and your baby seems perfectly health. I guess you're taking very good care."
"Sure. I always do my best." Kotoha can't bear to smile widely. Hearing that her baby is in perfect condition.
"Well, that's great, dear. You have to keep that spirit until your baby born. Keep take a lot of healthy food and don't do heavy activities. In a few month later, we would be able to hear the baby's heart beat." Dr. Kitamura happily explained, while her hand putting Kotoha's file into a green map. While Kotoha looks around. There's a lot of posters attached in the wall. But there is one poster that her eyes collided on. A poster that showed a growth baby in the womb.
"Dr Kitamura." she called. It makes the doctor paused her activity. After feeling that she got Dr. Kitamura attention, she continued. "Is that inside of me?" she pointed the poster. Dr. Kitamura looked at the direction Kotoha pointed at.
"Yes. It is. And it will keep growing. Inside your womb. It is a part of your body, my dear." Dr. Kitamura softly answered. Kotoha wiped her belly slowly. Eventough she already decide to keep the baby, when she thinks that there is something that lived in her body makes her feel so happy.
"Kotoha." Kotoha was taken back from her day dream. It was Dr. Kitamura voice. "You're gonna be a great mom. I know it."
_The Twist Of Faith_
The woman and the man sat in the sofa which is situated on The Hanaori family Living Room. The woman kept her ears, while the man explained a lot to the woman. Hanaori Mitsuba heavily breathed. The story of her lord makes her hard to breathe. There's too much surprise that she discovered this week.
"Tono-sama, are you lying?" she tried to make sure.
Takeru gave a death glare to Mitsuba. How could his vassal stated he was lying. Well not stated actually, asked. "Is my face shows that I'm lie? Do you think I made this story myself to get your sympathy?" he answered with questions. He talked a lot and Mitsuba doubt it? Damn.
"No. Pardon me, Tono-sama. I didn't mean to doubt you. It's just hard to believe that Kotoha and Tono-sama has been through a lot of complicated situation." Mitsuba said. Her voice was trembled.
"It's not your fault. I'm the one whose can't control my emotion." The leader of Shinkenger speaks after he clear his mind. "Mitusba, I already told you a lot, now let me meet Kotoha."
"No!" Mitsuba screamed as she stand and hold back Takeru whose already stand. "You can't see her now."
"What do you mean I can't see her now? I need to clarify things out between us." Takeru still on his convictions.
"Listen to me, Tono-sama. Kotoha has been through a lot of hard times this few months because of you and that is absolutely not good for her baby. Suddenly you appear in front of her. It won't make her happy, Tono-sama believe me. It will make her getting more pressure. And her baby, I mean your baby also will getting worst."
Takeru dazed. He knew that the thing is possible to happen. "So what you expect me to do? Until when you hold me back. Besides, I wanted to know my baby condition." His voice getting smoother on the end if his words. And that makes Mitsuba smiled sincerely.
She knew that her lord is worrying the baby in her sister's womb. "Tono-sama, I'll speak up with Kotoha. We'll see how she respond. And about the baby…" she take a piece of paper and a pen in the table. She then wrote down an address. She passed the paper to Takeru. "Meet me here, tomorrow morning at eight."

Shiba Kaoru tried to calmed Mako down. After she showed the letter that she found in her son's futon this morning, Mako seems so angry.
"It's fine, Mako. Takeru has grown up. He can take care of himself." She said.
"I know, mom." Mako answered. 'Takeru. Where are he going. Is it possible that he…. No it can't be. It's impossible that he met Kotoha'. Thinking that make her getting angrier. 'Where are you Takeru?'
