Mysterious
Case 04: Future
Yako's eyes warm brown eyes opened to look into Neuro's glowing green eyes, which showed the slightest hint of fondness.
"Falling asleep in the middle of the day, you're such a lazy slave."
"Neuro?" Yako was in a room with Neuro, weren't they office a second ago? She noticed her clothes were different, "what am I wearing?"
"Clothes," Neuro answered simply, face blank.
"Where's my uniform? I wasn't wearing these clothes before. Oh no, don't tell me you knocked me out and dressed me!"
"Of course I didn't dress you, I'm not your slave, it's the other way around, you're my slave. Either way I do not require your assistance in dressing myself."
"We were at the office, you were choking me, I felt faint and then I woke up here. What happened in between?"
"Is this some kind of strange joke or did your tiny brain finally became weak enough to contract the amnesia virus?"
"Amnesia is not a virus," Yako pointed out, while the questions in her mind continued to pile up.
"Good, because I don't want the egg getting any diseases from you."
"What egg?"
"Are you trying to make fun of your master? I warn you not to."
"What egg?" Yako repeated more insistently.
"The egg, our egg, the one you're carrying and will lay, hopefully soon so you stop acting so strange."
It was then Yako noticed that her stomach was indeed bigger. She touched it, tracing the shape of her belly, it really did feel like she had an egg in there, it wasn't too big yet, but she could feel it. "What did you do?"
"About what?"
"This!" Yako pointed to her abdomen. Neuro didn't reply and she started to cry in a panic.
"What's wrong with you?" Yako didn't answer, instead wailing some more until Neuro kissed her and she stopped crying. Kissing always made her shut up. "Is your sudden burst of insanity over?"
Yako blushed, sniffled and dried her tears in shock; maybe this wasn't so bad after all. "Are we going to get married?"
"Again? Absolutely not, once is enough."
Yako noticed the fancy ring on her finger, "is this my wedding ring?"
"Why are you asking such stupid questions? Did you really lose your memory all of a sudden?"
"I guess so..." This was very strange but perhaps Neuro was right, maybe she did have amnesia and that's why she didn't remember the events that led to her current situation.
"Stupid, troublesome dishrag. Will your memory come back if you go back to sleep?"
"I'll try..." Yako attempted to fall asleep, albeit she didn't expect it to work. She had too many questions in her head. Was she really missing a piece of her memories? If she had truly married Neuro, she didn't want to forget that. Lost in thought, she unexpectedly dozed off.

Yako's eyes warm brown eyes opened to look into Neuro's glowing green eyes, which showed the slightest hint of relief. "Who gave you permission to faint?"
"Neuro?" Yako noticed she was on the couch at the detective office, wearing her uniform. She sat up, lifted her shirt a little and poked at her flat stomach.
"What are you looking for in there? Did you swallow something important by accident?"
"No, nothing..." Yako got up feeling dazed, that was a very strange dream.

Several years into the future... Yako's eyes warm brown eyes opened to look into Neuro's glowing green eyes, which showed the slightest hint of concern.
"Is your amnesia gone?"
"What amnesia?"
"It's getting worse!"
"I don't have amnesia, not that I know of, but I guess I wouldn't know if I did..."
"Who am I?" Neuro inquired.
"Neuro Nogami," Yako replied automatically.
"What am I to you?" Yako blushed and Neuro was quick to clarify, "don't get mushy, just state the facts."
"My husband..."
"Good, you remember half of it at least, but you forgot to say master." He patted her head as one would do to a pet, "don't lose your memory again, your master forbids it."
