Chapter 10: Past

When Sakura entered the room where Rin was, she saw and heard Rin calling her 'Sakura' like when they were still children. Without realizing it, Sakura began to cry.

"Sakura, is something wrong? Are you hurt?" Rin asked with a voice resembling a young child.

Sakura began to wipe away her tears while saying, "No, big sister, am I fine."

"You sure?" Rin asked

Sakura finished wiping away her tears and said, "Yes."

"Sakura, where are Mom and Uncle Kariya?" Rin asked.

"What?" Sakura asked.

"Mom and Uncle Kariya. They were here a moment ago." Rin said.

"Why were they here?" Sakura asked.

Rin looked at Sakura with a confused look on her face while she said, "Because it's your birthday!"

Sakura wanted to cry and tell her older sister that today wasn't her birthday and that it had passed 11 years since the last time both of them celebrated her (Sakura's) birthday, but Sakura said, "Yes, I remember! Thank you for remembering it, big sister!"

Rin smiled then frowned and said, "Sakura, I heard Dad saying that I was going to live with the Matou family. Is that true?"

"Rin, does not true. You probably didn't hear it well." Sakura said.

Rin nodded and said, "That's true because Daddy would never do that he is good and strong. He would never abandon any of us and Mommy would be against him if he ever decided to do that."

Rin yawned and closed her eyes to return to her slumber.

Sakura looked at Parwa-san and asked her, "Is Rin always like this?"

"Not a lot, before she used to do it almost constantly but now it's a miracle in itself if she remembers a bit about her past as a Tohsaka." Parwa-san said.

"Parwa-san, how did you know that she was a Tohsaka?" Sakura asked.

"I've been Rin's doctor for about 6 years." Parwa-san said.

"Does Rin get sick often?" Sakura asked.

"Not quite often." Parwa-san which seemed to relax Sakura.

"Parwa-san, how did you manage to become Rin's doctor?" Sakura asked.

Parwa-san didn't want to answer that and she was glad that Shinji said, "Sakura-san, I think it's time to leve the doctor and it's going to be noon soon."

Sakura checked the clock in the room she was in and saw that Shinji was saying the truth.

"I'm sorry." Sakura Immediately told Parwa-san.

"Don't worry about it, Sakura." Parwa-san said.

"Then, we'll be going." Shinji said.

But, before Sakura left, she returned to where Parwa-san was and gave her a pendant.

"This used to belong to my big sister. Can you give it to her, please?" Sakura said.

"Yes, I'll do it." Parwa-san said.

"Thank you very much, Parwa-san." Sakura said after she have the pendant to Parwa-san.

Parwa was able to look at Shinji and Sakura leaving although Sakura decided to go on her own instead of having Shinji to accompany her home.

When Parwa looked at Sakura leaving, she was glad that she didn't answered Sakura's question of about how she became Rin's doctor.

"I don't want to tell her that I became Rin's doctor after Rin almost made a successful attempt of taking her own life." Parwa thought.
