CHAPTER Four
Third Person POV
"Ah-ahaha… T-that's not funny even it is a joke, Kuroko", Kagami laugh forcefully as he peer to Kuroko's eyes.
"…" Kuroko look confuse as he look straight at them.
"… Y-You really don't know us, Tetsu?" Aomine gaze worriedly knowing what Kuroko is going to say.
"Sorry…" Kuroko says apologetically as he looks down at his own hands.
"N-no. We should be the one apologize. I am really sorry Kuroko. Sorry. Sorry" Kagami repeated his last word as he cannot control the tears from coming out of his eyes and fall on his knees. As if influenced by Kagami, people around slowly cry one by one. Kuroko has a very clear confuse look in his eyes. Meanwhile, the doctor arrived to check on Kuroko (one of the Seirin's first year rush to get the doctor). Everyone went out of the room to allow the doctor to check on him.
After about 10 minutes, the minute the doctor came out of the room, everyone run towards him and asking how is he, why does he not remember us etc.
The doctor manages to calm them down and say, "We check on him and there is nothing wrong on his brain or head. However, he lost his memories because of the stress he is under and the brain automatically deletes the painful memories. Please do not worry, it is temporarily but it also depends… It may take a day, a year or more." Everyone feel more pang of guilt in them as they all have a part to play in adding more stress towards Kuroko.
"By the way, may I ask where his parents are?" the doctor gaining their attention. They all look up shaking their heads.
"When their precious son is in this condition and they are not reachable! What kind of parents are! Aren't they concerned about their own son?" The doctor scolded softly only for him to hear. The doctor look back at them and tell to not hesitate to inform him if there is anything else wrong as he walked away not before everyone bow to him.
"Ne*, do anyone seen Kurokocchi's parents before? Or know any way to contact them? Isn't it weird for them not to be here? Or maybe they are busy…"Kise asked the group.
"No… He never spoke anything about it before. He never even once invites us to his house, when we suggest that we go to his house he just passes it by saying his house is dirty or his parents are with guest or etc…" Aomine respond as he finds it weird too. Everyone went silence as they think but nothing came out. They all think of asking Kuroko himself.
Kuroko is still sitting upright and gaze down on his hand as everyone came in.
"Kuroko…" Kagami still feel guilty as he looks at Kuroko sadly.
"Erm…" Kuroko wanted to reply but realize he do not know how to address them.
"Oh right. So ermm… I am Kagami Taiga, same class and club-" Kagami started introducing himself but was stopped by Kuroko's question.
"Erm, so are you from the library club?"
"Eh? O-Oh no, you are in Basketball club… Don't- Don't you remember?" Kagami still surprise that Kuroko don't even remember that he also joined the basketball club.
"Basketball club? Oh right…" Kuroko said and he gazed down as a tint of sadness can be spotted in his eyes.
"Anyway, continuing the introduction, you are in Basketball club and this is Hyuuga senpai, Kiyoshi senpai… Then this your teammates from your Middle school…" (Sorry, I am kind of lazy to write all the names so anyway, the introduction goes on and on~) Kagami said as he point at the respective person as the names goes on.
"Oh mm. Right. So… Kagami…kun? Even though I was told that because of my wrist, I cannot do things that require great exertion, I don't seem to remember anything about basketball. However, despite that, I… I somehow feel sad and lonely about it… I wonder why…" Kuroko said as tears involuntary fell. He quickly wipes away his tears and look back at Kagami. "Do you mind talking more about it? Maybe I will remember some things about basketball." Kuroko suggested and they spend the whole visiting hours (6pm to 8pm) talking about their achievement for basketball such as Winter Cup etc. Unfortunately, none of Kuroko's memories came back. They also cannot find the right time to ask about his family. Right after the visiting hour, they bid Kuroko goodbyes and left the room after they tell him they will be visiting again tomorrow.
Outside the hospital
"Do you think that Kuroko will have his memories back?" Kagami pause while walking halfway and questioned.
"Maybe" Aomine replied as he looks up at the sky full of stars.
"… Do you think Kuroko will want his memories back?" Kagami voiced his thought aloud.
"Hmph. So that what you did to Tetsu will be forgotten and you guys will live on with no guilt?" Aomine look at them furiously, "Even though Tetsu cannot remember a thing, I will NEVER forgive you people for betraying him."
"N-NO! It-It's just that he might be happier not remember the sad things and continue to live normally…" Kagami disagree but say the last part softer and softer.
"Well that's a very good excuse for people like you!" Aomine blame Kagami.
"Stop! You are bothering other people. (Momoi referring to the neighbours living nearby)" Momoi bring a halt to the two from arguing further.
"She's right. Stop it both of you. Whether you wish Tetsuya to remember or not, it is not our choice." Akashi instructed.
Akashi's commanding tone stopped the two as the group continue walking to their respective home without a single noise.
Note:
So how is it? I know this chapter is a bit shorter than usual (: but well! For your information, Kuroko remember his name, family etc but do not remember anything about basketball (How to play, teammates…) since it is the one which make him stress …? Does it make sense?
