Day 26.

Layla san, are you not ready to go outside again?.." Misaka asked worriedly at Layla.

I don't think I'm ready to go outside again today, Misaka san ..' Layla replied melancholy without batting her eyes through the windows.

Gaara sama said if you don't do well, He will call the doctor to have check on you" Watching Layla don't energetic like usual worried Misaka and even Gaara.. She doesn't go out from her room except when Gaara is not home and sometimes Layla skips her meal she always dozes out.

I'm sorry if I'm being selfish.. '

Misaka gave Layla a smile, ' It's okay.. Then you should rest, just call me if you need anything..

Layla just smiles at the old lady, Misaka san is surely kind to her and somehow makes her remember her late mother. "I miss snow.. '

Back home, her village always has snow and it is cold.. Even though her body was weak she could sprint off on the snow pile, making a snowman with her childhood friend.. She wonders if they still remember her or maybe search for her.

Gaara.. (Pov)

He seems can't focus at all on his work. After a whole week he rarely sees Layla's face inside the house and there was a time he couldn't even see her nose or hear her talking..

His head was so messy, he didn't know what to do..

He thought everything was okay, but he betrayed Layla again and hurt her even more..

Although Kankuro was displeased when he said to let Layla live with him, Gaara turn blind and just do whatever he wants but he never think about her feelings

His heart seems relaxed when Layla is with him here in Sunagakure, and he doesn't ever want to let her go anymore. If it means to lock her forever inside the house he will do it as long as Layla is always in his sights.

And for the engaged, after Gaara found out if really Kantarou was behind all this spy stealing and selling village information to an outsider that time he will break his engagement to Sayuri which he and Sayuri agreed.

In return, Gaara will give Sayuri protection if Kantarou is really related.. .

Looking outside the windows, He seems can't be in the mood for working right now.. His head is so messy with all the problems he needs to Layla face to replenish his energy even though he knew that women just shut themselves in her room ..

Tidying all the paperwork before leaving his office., Gaara walked back to his mansion

Walking alongside the alley, Gaara took a short stroll on his way back. He suddenly stood in front of the ice cream shop Layla favorite place that Misaka always told him . Well since he is here, he should get Layla some ice cream. Maybe her heart slowly opens back to him again.

Ara. It unusual for you to come here Kazekage sama.. "

Gaara startled as the waitress suddenly talked to him.. " Hmm!!.. It is not unusual at all.. " ..

The female staff chuckle when Gaara denies it, the waitress quickly takes Gaara to the front and shows him all the different kinds of flavored ice cream they have..

Keep wondering what flavor she might like is impossible for Gaara .. And the waitress stared at him really uncomfortable .. Looking at him just because he suddenly come want to buy an ice cream

Just give strawberry flavour " After some time debating with himself he finally chose. The waitress quickly prepared his order .

Layla san!.. Do you hear me?!!..

There were some faint voices calling her name, she wanted to reply but her mouth seemed so hard to open.. Clutching her chest, her body feels hot and she has a hard time breathing.

Layla san..

Again someone was calling her.. She wanted to ask for help but..

Her eyes widened when her chest hurt again , curled her body on the bed .. Her chest on fire it was unbearable pain her vision became blurry

It hurts!!.. Misaka sann!!.. "Layla yelled asking for help as she kept reaching Misaka's hands.

Layla…. What's wrong with you?!!..

He reached and held tights to her hands, " ..

It hurts .. Someone save me.. " ..

Seeing her sweating like this, Gaara grew panicked .. " Misaka san, tell the doctor to come here immediately!!.. He quickly says to Misaka as the old lady rushly to the living room and calls the doctor.

After he just arrived at the house, He heard Misaka's voice and quickly came upstairs only to find Layla was sick ..

Mom.. Dad.. " it hurts .. " She keeps moaning in pain as Gaara keeps her company worried about her .. " Just wait a sec Layla .. You're gonna be okay" ..

She likes that voice, a warm and gentle voice .. A man with red haired looking worriedly at her make her chest even more ache while his hands keep holding on her

Walking back and forth in the living room, Gaara waits for the doctor to finish checking on Layla upstairs .. He is so afraid of something bad happening to her.

Scratching his hair, he can't help but get worried .. The warm tea Misaka served to him earlier was already lukewarm and the ice cream he originally wanted to give to Layla was already melting.

Gaara sama.. " ..

Hurriedly looking up to the stairs , The doctor walking down it seems he already finished treating her.. " What's wrong with her" .. Gaara immediately asks the doctor right in front of him.

Fortunately , she is in stable condition and I already gave her pain relief and that is enough.. The doctor explained.

Breath relief escaped from Gaara mouth, ' and why could she like that?

' I'm not sure, I think I should do a full check up to know . The doctor replied.

Is she fine now?"..

Yes, just don't let her get stressed too much and cause it not good for her body .. I will prescribe her medicine and first thing in the morning , I will deliver her medicine seeing now it is already late '.. The doctor explained and Gaara nodded.

After seeing the doctor out, Gaara hurriedly goes upstairs after telling Misaka to get some rest cause he will take care of Layla.. open the door gaara walks inside her room and takes a seat on the bed beside her .. Glad after seeing Layla expression much okay than before his worries gradually disappear one by one..

'You make me worry, Layla.. until I feel my heart is gonna explode.' Wiping the sweat from her face , he got the chance to touch her face and he was gonna enjoy it.

She'll still be afraid and angry at him , so much until she despises seeing his face.. but he can't blame her for that '.. .. ' I will make sure our relationship will go back as usual, Layla , and I swear my name on that because you're mine .. and no one can take what mine'..

He placed a kiss on her forehead and after wishing her good night Gaara turned the lights and sat on the bed beside her, brushing her bangs to the side to make him have a good look at her.

Lowered his body and softly he left a kiss on her forehead and her cheeks ' Good night, sweetheart.. He whispers
