Everyone was looking at Squall like they know every thing. But They only knew the past of him. Which made them angry with Squall. They never knew the fact that he was sick , till now. Only Seifer was the one who knew that.

" ouoop " Squall fell down from the chair and throw up..... Seifer was the one who was petting him at the back. " Are you Ok?? come on.... what the.... hell....... " Seifer stopped talking when he saw that blood was in Squall's hand . He was trying to hide his blood... But he was never good at hiding things. (Too bad......)

" why what's wrong?" asked Zell who was right next to Squall's seat.

" Ouuooopp... Not.... nothing..... Just..... enjoy... y..you... your...... bbbbb" Squall fainted with the word which he haven't finnished.

Everybody was looking at him and Seifer. Seifer was mourning like Squall's going to be dead. He was crying for help for someone who could take him to hospital. He was crying that he was going to die. " He's having tubercle.... please.. god dam'met wake up man... you can't go like this..... wake up!!!!" Seifer , who was crying shouting at his pale face, he dropped his tears for the first time .

Squall, he was sent to hospital for that. And he remained in coma.

While Rinoa who didn't know Squall's sickness for a long time, regretted that she should've known that.

" Rinoa , Stop that thing and get out of here...... It's the only thing you could do for him, and Irvine..." A cold voice came from Rinoa's back.

" Seifer... since when did he became like this?? " Rinoa, looking at Seifer and Irvine .

" ...... All I could say is..... nothing for you.." said Seifer.

" Rinoa , Come... We've got to talk." said Irvine.

Rinoa followed Irvine quietly and looking at Seifer madly. Irvine was worried that he might lose Rinoa. He hardly got her. He didn't want to let her go because of Squall.

He felt ' Damn you Squall, why did you have to do that infront of everyone? '.

But he could not say that infront of his sick friend. He just had to pitty, nothing more than that.

He turned back at Rinoa and started to say in a begging way. " Rinoa ...... whom do you really love? "

" ........" She stood speachless and stare at Irvine with full of tears....

" why can't you say that it is me? huh.... What happen to you?" he was holding Rinoa's arms very tightly , and looked sadly into Rinoa's wetted eyes.

" what... How ... am I suppose to say this to you. I know.... the one I love is you but, something is holding me to him... What am I suppose to say to you... Which answer will statisfy you? " asked Rinoa.

"Nothing more..." and Kissed Rinoa in a very cruel way.

Rinoa pushed him back..." what's this?" Rinoa's eyes changed into fear and anger..

" ...... I never lose you again like before. " Said Irvine.

And Irvine left, leaving Rinoa cold and confused.

chapter 3

Rinoa stood still for a long time, till the night.

She never said a word after that.

While Seifer was busy looking at Squall's pale face.

Suddenly Squall opened he's eyes slowly. " where am I?"

" You were in coma for two days.... Damn.. that thing got worster.. The doctor says that ,you have a two year or less days to live.." said Seifer sadly.

" ...... Seifer... Can I get out of this hospital. I don't think it'll be good for me.. Can I go back?" cried Squall.

Seifer looked at him still and brusted his tears and hugged Squall. Squall bit his lip tight, so that Seifer won't feel sad for him. He tried to persuade Seifer that he'll be fine. And he would like to go somewhere for a while. which ment that he'll follow he's fate.

Seifer could not stop crying till Squall said. " It's my fate. There's nothing to change eventhough you cry like this."

So Squall came back to his room. And started to pack his stuffs.

" Well.... seems like you need a hand ....." said laguna.

" .......... What now do you want to talk about?" said Squall.

" .....ha..... why didn't you tell this to me before?" Laguna said in a worried and sad looking to Squall's Deep gray eyes.

" you're about to leave..... Because of that girl? did i got that right?? why are you doing this... stop..... Stay ...." Laguna said before Squall could say any words at him.

Squall stood still and looked back at him... " It's for everybody's own good. If I don't leave they'll force me to leave."

' I know.... but there's still one thing you should know before you leave..' a voice came up again to his ear.

" what did you said?" asked Squall in a shocked looking against Laguna.

"huh? I said nothing but just watching you..... My god.... You're having those things again, just like when you broke up with her..." Laguna soon realized it and exclaimed.

" ..... I think I need a rest... Please.... out of my room please .... I'll disscuss the thing later." said Squall , he lay down on his bed and closed his eyes.

Laguna left quietly out of Squall's room. He was sad that he could not do anything for Squall. Quistis, who was very worried about him, however refused to see Squall.

She was truely loved him till now. & if he knows it, she was afraid that he might not treat her like before.

When Laguna left the room Quistis was hesitating wether to go in to the room or not.

She tried not to cry, but her tears kept on falling down when she was about to knock on the door. ' seems like he's too far away from me....... How could I get in? what if I cry infront of him?' thought quistis.

" just go in... What wre you waiting for? " said Seifer.

" Seifer... What are you doing here?" asked Quistis with her eyes growing bigger like her tears.

" I knew it..... Way before since when Rinoa and he had relationships...... you looked gloomy on that day... specialy when he gave a ring on Rinoa's birthday..." kind of teasing her in a way, like Seifer was proclaiming to someone.

" .... yeah... so.... what's your point?" asked Quistis.

" cheer him up." Seifer was looking at Quistis with trustworthy..

" how?...." , " Quistis, now listen ... I think you can make him stay here. Don't make him leave, now I mean it. Don't underestimate yourself, you're perfect. Don't look down at yourself.. you got to
