A Horrible Apartment + A Horrible Guy

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Miamigi: I had been receiving E_M sent straightly to my account, not much

reviews on the web, but definitely tons of concerning letters asking

about my depression and hoped me to get better ASAP. I felt so thank-

ful and just want to say ARIGATOU to everyone who had E_M me.

Disclaimer: Humph, let¡¦s see¡KI have a cat, two cents in the pocket, and nothing

else. Therefore you know that I don¡¦t own SM, so don¡¦t even think

about suing me. ¡¥Sides, I have nothing to let you win over, truce? ^_^

Chapter 6

Death?

__________________________________________________________________________________

¡§ Help!¡¨

The words swung inside his brain many times, causing a sudden urge full filled him. He rushed over to his semi-conscious angle and pushed her aside to safety. The truck driver did not seem to notice any particular thing at all, for that you could clearly see no certain sign of braking. Darien was busily concentrated on the fact that Serena was no where near danger by then, and quizzically forgot that he was located in the middle of a street, with a gigantic truck approaching him at an alarm speed. The man, who had partly saved Serena, exclaimed nervously ¡§ Hey, get off the road right at this minute! ¡¨. The nervousness and the anxiety tone brought Darien back to reality, but not much of use since the distance between him and the truck was less than five feet. Darien, like Serena, was paralysed and waited for death to knock on his door. Eventually, the truck driver slightly took a glance at what was in front of him. It was a noble-looking man, dressing in a legendary, pearly garment. Sword settled down at the side of his waist, the cloak flew freely in the air. There was this royal and holy atmosphere tightly surrounding him, by that you could simply tell that he was someone mighty, some elite with highly prestige.

¡§ Oh my God! Is he the¡K?¡¨

Automatically, his left foot landed on the brake and pressed hard against it. It was too late. The driver tasted salt and yet he knew that it was because he was perspiring cool sweat on the forehead. There was too much, enough to roll down and reach the upper lip. Seeing pedestrian and motorcyclists crowed up in the front, he bit his lower lip as he comprehended the reason of their strange action. There was only one explanation: he had run over, at least crashed into the true victim of that accident.

Serena scrambled weakly to the underneath of the metal truck; the original source of all the immense amount of reddish, cruel blood, which dyed the well paved tar road into fiery hell. She stopped before she entered the root and hesitated.

¡¥ Am I really up to that? What lay underneath is a man who saved my life. A man I love. A man whose heart was broken by me. Does he even love me anymore? If not why did he used his very own life to pull me out of serious danger? The warmth transferred into my body when he pushed me was so familiar, so¡Ksweet, so loving. I don¡¦t know what I want¡K¡¨

She knew that it was impossible to face him by then. Serena suddenly stood up and felt the lack of oxygen in her brain. The view grew dimmer as she glared around. The anoxic body constantly hit the bloody ground when she fainted.

The hospital was unusually busy that day. A numerous amount of concerning people, plus the reporters from every single news station, were stuffed by the counter, asking for the information on the victims. Coincidentally, Amy¡¦s mother happened to be one of surgeons performing the patient who was in the worse physical condition, Darien. Serena, on the other hand, was placed in an ordinary ward, for that there was barely any injury done to her except a bit of scratch. They predicted that she would definitely become completely conscious in less than thirteen hours, but it was unable to expect when Darien¡¦s awakeness would come.

Amy had informed Ray, Mina, and Lita as soon as she finished her conversation with her mother over the phone. When they arrived at the hospital, it was not surprising to see that Ken, Irene, who were lawfully Serena¡¦s parents, and her little annoyed brat brother Sammy walking up and down the hall anxiously. Mina greeted them nonchalantly, while the other three were even too sad to vocalize.

¡§ Serena is all right, ne, Amy? You are the most knowledgeable one at medical treatment¡K¡¨ Irene whimpered softly, but the only respond gotten back was Amy¡¦s blank emotion, which irritated Ken for unknown reasons.

¡§ You girls are Serena¡¦s best friends, and yet can¡¦t not help her when she discovered her unexpected roommate, a male roommate?! This is unimaginable! Maybe Serena should have stayed with Molly instead!¡¨

Sammy grabbed Ken¡¦s wrist cautiously, seemed to be warning his father to end the unimportant conversation instantly. Irene kept herself deadly quiet, refused to make any personal opinion or comment. While leaning on the palely white wall, her entire numb, lifeless body slickly glided down and reached the floor. From the fact that Irene, who was one of the forever beautiful mid-age women in Tokyo, was sitting carelessly on the floor with her long, thin legs opened widely, the girls sensed that although she was not making any statement, Irene was surely upset and disappointed with them.

Ray could not bear the arraignment any longer; therefore she walked up to the blood-shot father as he was drowned deeply in an unexpectable puzzle. When she vocalized, the tone was mixed with an exorbitantly dangerous tantrum, yet contained a tiny percentage of respect.

¡§ Mr. Tuskino, we ARE Serena¡¦s very best friends, and we always will be no matter what so ever happen, or happened, to her. We are going through the same thing as you all are; I know apparently it¡¦s not befitting to say this to you, but¡KYOUR ACCUSING IS NOT HELPING! SO PLEASE DISCONTINUE IT!¡¨

The marvelous teardrops instantly shed down on Ray¡¦s cheeks like magic, enormously amazed everyone. It was well known to Juuban subsection that the young, prideful priestess of Hiwaka Jinja had never, ever in her life cried out unthinkably in public. Makoto secretly grinned at gladness that another proof was presented to conclude Ray¡¦s care and anxiety for Serena.

Amy led the to relax on the chairs suspended from walls, even though it was a certainty, and they all realized, that no one could possibly feel relaxed until getting the knowledge of Serena was fully recovered. They waited impatiently for the doctors to report Serena¡¦s present body condition. Minutes, the hours had passed, but to them it seemed like lifeless years. Eventually, the door of Serena¡¦s ward was being pulled, and a couple of nurses with a male doctor walked out. Obviously, Amy appeared to know the doctor, since she quickly greeted him by his first names.

¡§ Konnichiwa Zoicite. Now hurry tell me every precise detail ¡¥bout Serena!!!¡¨

¡§ She is doing extremely well to say. Her left arm and legs might be scratched for that she hit into the ground when the guy pushed her forcefully out off the road. But it will recover soon, I guarantee you. She is still in coma now for certain uncomprehending reasons..¡¨He was astonishedly cut off by Amy.

¡§ What do you mean in coma! She wasn¡¦t the one got crashed by the truck which was loaded with metal! Plus she always scrape herself, so why COMA!?¡¨Her voice screeched. Unthinkably the worries she had for Serena sort of changed her calm, methodical personality into somewhat silly, temporarily.

He grinned. ¡§As I was saying, it¡¦s uncomprehending.¡¨

Another nurse rushed out of Serena¡¦s room elatedly, with excitement and joy appearing on her face.

¡§ Dr. Yuuno Zoicite! The patient has awaken from coma!¡¨

Hearing this, Ray, Mina, Lita, EVERYBODY ran straightly into the ward before Zoicite and the nurses could stop them. The nurses looked nervous and protested,

¡¥Iie, Sir, Madam, it¡¦s the rule that you can¡¦t visit the patient until¡K¡¨

Zoicite slightly put his hand on her shoulder, remark,

¡§ Girl, come on, have a little faith in you. Forgot the famous high school phrase rules are meant to be broken?¡¨

They jostled up by the bed, did not dare to make any noise to irritate or hurt the helpless girl who lied semi-consciously in it. Sammy noticed that his dear big sister AND his role model¡¦s lips were beginning to move, he quietly mouthed the others to look. Serena fully opened her crystal blue eyes. Although she was in a bad shape, those adorable two could still keep shinning sparklingly with happiness, strength, hope, and love. At that moment, both Irene and Ken felt extremely proud and thankful for having such an unbelievably firm, and strong, yet lovingly sweet daughter. Serena glared around warily. After a few minutes, she finally asked anxiously,¡§Minna-chan, where is the most important man in my life? Where is Darien Chiba?!¡¨
