Rae and Chad sat on the floor by the fire, wrapped in a blanket. Rae had fallen asleep, her head resting on Chad's chest. He smiled as he wrapped his arms around her. She had worked hard the past few months preparing for their wedding, and helping everyone else
with theirs. His smile turned to a frown as he remembered what had happened earlier.
Rae had spent so much time trying to get a signal from gramps in the fire, she had
fainted. Just then the phone rang. Rae's eyes flew open, and she sat up before sprinting
to the phone.
"Hello? Yes this is Miss. Hino"
Chad walked over to Rae and listened to the phone conversation. The person on the
other line had a soft voice.
'This is Nurse Annette from the local hospital, I'm sorry to inform you that we think a
family member of yours was brought here a few hours ago from a Heart Attack. He's
about eighty years old and only three feet tall.' Rae's face paled, and her eyes were
watery. "Gramps..." She started swaying and finally collapsed into Chad's arms,
dropping the phone. Chad shifted her to one arm and picked up the phone with the
woman calling into it. 'Hello, Miss. Hino?' "Can you tell me what happened?" Chad
asked, trying to find out what he could do. 'All we know,' the nurse continued, 'Is that
he had a Heart Attack while jogging through the park. A by-stander saw him drop
unconscious and called an ambulance. He still hasn't awaken. The only I identification
we could find was this number and the young Lady's name and picture. We thought she
could Identify him.' Chad's eyes became a little misty. "We'll be right down."
* * *
The friends of Rae, Chad, and Gramps, sat in the waiting room. Rae had
re-gained consciousness and sat in Chad's arms, quietly weeping. Serena had called
Darien, and he had run to the hospital and demanded to take over the project, being that
he was Gramps Doctor. Ami and Greg had come directly from the airport to help
comfort Rae and Chad. Lita had closed the restaurant early and she and Ken picked up
Serena before arriving at the hospital as well. They all sat in silence. Then the doors
opened and Darien walked through. Everyone in the room focused their attention onto
him. His face was grim. "Rae, Chad, you can see him, If you like" The two got up and
followed Darien through the doors to the hallway, Rae stopped next to Serena and
squeezed her hand. "Come with me." She said hoarsely. "Rae, maybe you would like to
be alone with him..."
"No, I want you to be in there with me." Serena looked to Darien, he just nodded. Serena
stood up and walked alongside Rae as they entered the room. Rae let go of Serena's
hand and ran to her Grandfather's bedside. She sat there, for a moment. Darien walked
over and tapped Serena and Chad on the shoulder, motioning them outside into the hall.
The three of them quietly slipped out the door and closed it, leaving Rae alone with her
only remaining relative. "It doesn't look good." Darien said quietly. There's nothing we
can do." Serena stared at him in shock. "What happened? I mean, he was in good
shape..." Darien looked back at the old man laying on the bed. "He got old. His heart
couldn't take the strain of him running. I told him not to over do the exercise, but he
wouldn't listen." Chad shook his head as Darien spoke. "Last week Rae and I did our
best to prevent him from doing his karate. We even tried to change the karate lessons for
the girls, without telling him, but he found out and insisted to be there." Chad exclaimed.
Darien put a hand on his shoulder. "You tried, that's what counts." He sighed. "All we
can do now is wait. Serena, I think you should tell Rae. You're her best friend."
Serena nodded, tears in her eyes. Gramps had been like her own Grandfather as well. He
had been a second grandparent to all the girls. Darien saw the hurt in Serena's eyes, and
gave her a hug, comforting her. He looked at Chad. Chad also had tears in his eyes. He
remembered when he first came to the temple. Grandpa had taught him as his
apprentice, and he had been like the family Chad had never had. "I'll go tell the others."
He spoke quietly. Serena turned to him, and looked back at Darien. "I'll go with him"
He reassured her. Then he and Chad left Serena outside the door as they headed towards
the waiting room. Serena stood outside the room for a few moments longer. Rae sat
beside the bed, holding Grandpa's hands, Serena could tell that she was preying. Serena
took a deep breath, and headed back into the room, closing the door softly behind her.
Rae looked up, her face stained with tears. She knew. There was no reason for Serena to
repeat the obvious to her. Serena walked behind Rae and lightly touched her arm so Rae
would know she was there. Rae turned and smiled lightly at Serena. "It's his time. I
can't prevent it from happening." Her voice was weak. Serena kneeled beside her.
"Rae..." She began, but Rae turned to her, eyes full of tears. She enveloped Serena in a
hug, and broke down crying into her shoulder. Serena wrapped her arms around her best
friend. "I'm here for you, Rae. I'm here." She repeated, sobbing gently as well.
